Chapter 245 For Her Sake
Josh saved me. I should be thanking him for it, but I’m scared,” Analise confessed, her hand tightly linked with Abigail’s. Her eyes were clouded with worry.
“Don’t be scared, Grandma. What will be, will be,” Abigail reassured her.
Analise’s emotions changed rapidly, but she quickly replaced her conflicted expression with a loving gaze, saying, “You must be hungry. I’ll get food ready.”
“Okay.” Abigail nodded, not dwelling on Analise’s quick change of mood.
When Sean returned to his residence, he received a call from the police, informing him that Joan had been acquitted and released due to insufficient evidence. This outcome didn’t surprise him; he had expected it. After all, Kingston had always been ready to shoulder all the blame to protect
her.
As the call ended, Sean received a message from Cameron.
‘Joan wants to see you.‘
He stared at the message with a cold, calculating look for a few moments before replying.
‘Let her wait. I’ll think about it when I have time.”
‘Okay.’
‘Have you checked Eric Davidson’s recent purchase history, as I asked?’
‘Still working on it. I found some other news. The Pearsons have brought a young woman home!
Sean immediately called Cameron to discuss this new development.
“Does this mean Abigail isn’t the Pearsons‘ daughter?” When Sean saw Josh, he was almost confident that a simple DNA test would confirm the truth.
“Yes, according to the investigation, that young woman has already done a DNA test, and it’s a perfect match with the Pearson Family’s elders,” Cameron replied in a grave tone.
Sean’s expression darkened, and after a brief pause, his voice turned icy with a hint of danger. “So, Eric and Josh returning to Capitalis means they plan to abandon Abigail.”
Initially, this seemed like a good thing for him. Without Eric and Josh, he could deal with Joan alongside Abigail without any interference. Their sudden return disrupted Abigail’s life, as they had gone to great lengths to help her. However, now they seemed to be leaving without a second
thought, leaving her in the lurch.
“Book a ticket to Capitalis for me. You don’t need to come with me. Just keep a close eye on Joan. Do not let her get up to anything. Cameron, if she ever does anything that hurts Abigail or Analise, you can stop showing up to work.” Sean hung up right after that. He had to check out the Pearsons‘ daughter for Abigail’s sake. He had to see how chaotic and sly the family was for them to dare make a mess in Pendorf.
