Chapter 549 Just One Look
Abigail worked tirelessly to prevent herself and her grandmother from being looked down upon by others.
“Thank you, Grandma.” With the glass of milk in her hand, she once again expressed her gratitude for Analise’s understanding.
Analise didn’t follow Maisy’s path, who had forced Eric to marry someone who harmed him for the sake of family harmony.
“Get some rest. Since you’re here, just treat it as a vacation,” Analise instructed.
In response, Abigail nodded once more.
“How was your day with Sean?” Analise couldn’t help but ask again.
“It went well. Why do you ask?” Abigail pretended to ask seriously.
With a smile, Analise replied, “I’m just curious. Getting along well is more important than anything else. I’ll go back to my room now.”
After she left, Abigail slowly sipped her milk, but her gaze was distant as if lost in thought.
Time passed. On the third day, she received a call from Josh.
“Can you come back to Capitalis?” He sounded urgent.
“What’s the matter?” she asked, still sounding calm.
After a moment of silence, he said, “Abigail, there are things we haven’t explained. You should be aware of that, right?”
She didn’t answer and was about to hang up.
Suddenly, he continued, “Grandpa is dying. He had a sudden cerebral hemorrhage. He wants to see you.”
“What does it have to do with me?” Abigail coldly questioned him. “Don’t use something like this to manipulate me and try to get me to come back. Okay?” She couldn’t control her tone and continued, “My grandma is my only grandmother, and that’s the same for Grandpa! I don’t have another grandfather!”
Eric’s voice quivered. “Abigail, I beg you. Just come back and take a look. Just one look.”
If it weren’t for the sudden health crisis of his grandfather, he wouldn’t have bothered her at

all.
Abigail’s eyes welled up with tears, and she remained silent, her chest heaving.
At this moment, Sean entered the room and saw her standing there, clutching her phone. He approached her and asked, “What’s wrong?”
With teary eyes, she looked at him. “I-It’s nothing.”
She really hoped that the truth would remain buried until the day Analise peacefully departed. Why are they suddenly asking me to go back now?
Hugging her shoulders, he said, “Everything will be fine. Your grandma and I are here for you.”
“I know it’s not right, but there are many things we want to explain to you on our side. Abigail, can you please give us a chance?” Josh continued speaking on the phone, but he was choking up. “Grandpa had a cerebral hemorrhage when he heard about you.”
Abigail sternly replied, “What does that have to do with me? Why are you disturbing my life? I’ve said it before; I’m not! Don’t disrupt my life. Why are you doing this to me? Your family didn’t raise me, and neither did you appear when I needed my parents the most. Now, why do you want me to go back?”
Veins were popping on her forehead. After doing so many things to hurt me, they are now telling me that we are a family?
When Analise entered the room, she came forward to embrace Abigail, who was squeezing her phone tightly in her hand. Meanwhile, Lina stood at the room’s door with a puzzled expression, and even Colby couldn’t help but sigh.
On the phone, Josh repeatedly apologized to Abigail.
After the call ended, Analise held Abigail and patted her back. “Sean and I will accompany you to Capitalis. No matter what happened in the past, we need to resolve it. Don’t worry, Abigail. I will always be your grandma.”
Lina, a little late to understand, finally realized that Abigail’s biological parents had found her. Her parents are from Capitalis?
In the room, Abigail held Analise tightly. “Grandma, I don’t want to.”
She was simply avoiding and resisting the Pearson Family. She didn’t like them. She disliked the family that hadn’t raised her and that had bullied her and Luna for Kelly.
If they hadn’t attacked I..Moon, Luna wouldn’t have provoked Kelly, and all the subsequent events wouldn’t have happened.

“It’s okay, Abigail. Your situation back then was very complex, and I want to know the truth ast well.” Analise coaxed her.
