I Want a Divorce (Abigail and Sean)

Chapter 689 Overbearing Protection

In the end, Abigail agreed to the client's request to compensate him.

"You'll get what you want, but please keep it confidential. Otherwise, everyone will come to me for the design drawings, and I'll have to abandon yours," Abigail explained. She still had a few drawings in stock, so she didn't mind his suggestion.

However, this meant earning significantly less, which annoyed Abigail.

"Okay, I'll definitely remember what you said," the client replied, unable to hide his happiness.

Abigail hung up the phone and noticed Luna looking at her apologetically. She sat down next to Luna and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Did I hold you back from your work?" Luna asked, feeling guilty.

"Not at all. I had some drawings that I hadn't released yet. I was thinking of using them to fill in during these unexpected times. It's okay," Abigail reassured her, stroking her hair affectionately.

Luna responded with an "Oh."

"Can I call Sean? The company has been a bit chaotic recently, and we need him to help maintain order," Abigail said, shaking her phone to ask for Luna's opinion.

"It’s up to you" Luna replied.

"I definitely have to ask for your advice. You're one of the founders of L.Moon. Without you, there wouldn't be L.Moon today," Abigail expressed her respect for Luna.

"It's okay. You can call him. He's good to you, and I trust him," Luna smiled.

Abigail hummed in agreement and dialed Sean's number.

Luna averted her gaze as Abigail was on the phone. Her eyes were downcast as she reminisced about her past self. Belongs to © n0velDrama.Org.

How free and happy she used to be. She began to feel a great disgust for her current self.

Just as Abigail's call connected, Luna forcefully smashed the jade bead onto the coffee table.

Abigail immediately hung up the phone and sent a message to Sean, saying, 'I'll call you later.'

...

Sean, who was happy to receive the call, had all his joy extinguished when Abigail abruptly hung up.

He really wanted to ask Abigail what she was up to. Why is she always like this?

Before, she had informed Sean that she was returning to Capitalis and requested him to pick her up at the airport. However, later, she mentioned that she couldn't come back.

Can't she even make a phone call now?

Filled with complaints, Sean sent a message to Xavien, saying, 'Check where Abigail is.'

After sending the message, he quickly retracted it.

'Mr. Graham, what's wrong?' Xavien still replied to his message.

Sean replied, 'Nothing. You go about your business.'

He typed the message and threw his phone to the side. He felt that he and Abigail were back to the way they were before. He was cautious and fearful, trying to maintain their relationship, but he had no idea what was happening on her end.

Getting up, he put on his coat and called Kevin.

"How long has it been since you last contacted me? Do you still remember that you have me as a friend?" Kevin was surprised when he received Sean's call.

"I'm coming to Pendorf to have a drink with you. Find a good place." Sean was very irritable. Only by getting himself drunk and numbing his nerves could he stop his racing thoughts.

He came downstairs to see Josh sitting in the living room, silently drinking whiskey.

Their eyes met.

Josh quickly averted his gaze and asked, "What are you going out for?"

"Drinking," Sean answered directly.

Josh was a bit surprised. He looked at Sean again and realized that he seemed very irritable.

"What's wrong?" he asked Sean with concern.

"Do you want to come to Pendorf with me for a drink?" Sean didn't answer the question directly. After all, Abigail was Josh's sister, and admitting to having a disagreement with her at this time might provoke Josh's anger.

Josh set down his whiskey and inquired, "No women, right?"

"Do you really think I'm that kind of person?" Sean retorted.

Josh remained silent for a moment, then stood up and said, "Let's go."

...

Sean brought Josh to the entertainment club in Pendorf. As they entered the private room, they were greeted by the laughter and chatter of women.

"Mr. Stewart, you're so funny. Your sense of humor is truly entertaining."

Kevin's actions felt like a slap in the face to Sean.

Without saying a word, Josh immediately grabbed his phone and was about to dial Abigail's number.

Sean quickly stopped him. "I didn't know there’re women here. I'm innocent!"

"Are you out of your mind?! What if Abigail finds out? Do you realize the consequences? Even if someone else asked for them, would she believe you?!" Josh scolded angrily.

Sean held his hand. "Please don't call her."

Josh snorted in anger. "I need to reassess you. I won't let Abigail marry you again and get hurt by you."

"We've been together for so long. Don't you know me after all?" Sean felt unjustly treated. After finishing his words, he shouted at Kevin, "Kevin!"

Kevin, startled, pushed the woman aside and quickly stood up, jogging over to Sean at the door. "What's wrong, Sean?"

"Who gave you permission to bring a woman? How old are you? How could you still fool around at this age?” Sean scolded as soon as he spoke.

Kevin found him completely perplexing. Is it forbidden for me to enjoy the company of women just because he himself is controlled by his wife?

"Alright. Just a group of men drinking will do!" Kevin conceded under Sean's intimidating gaze. "Everyone out! I'll cover the expenses. We have two monks here, and they're worried you might tempt them into breaking their celibacy vows."
