pter 278 Turns Out to Be a Loser

Abigail returned home with her heart filled with worry.

She opened the door and looked into the living room.

However, her expression immediately turned cold when she saw the person sitting in the living

room.

“Who permitted you to come to my house?!” Abigail questioned Chad angrily.

Upon hearing her shout, Analise swiftly ran out of the kitchen. Looking at Chad, who was smiling gently,

and then at Abigail, she asked with a look of incomprehension, “What’s wrong?”

“Grandma, you shouldn’t let strangers in when I’m not home!” Abigail walked to Analise and pulled the

elderly woman to stand behind her, protecting her from Chad.

“Ms. Quinn, how can you be so certain that I don’t know her? Besides, your Grandma is an adult. You c

an’t restrict her from making friends.” Chad had a smile on his face, completely ignoring her

anger.

“Mr. Lancome, I suggest you leave my house now. Otherwise, don’t blame me for attacking you!” Abigai

l wasn’t in the mood to make small talk with him at all. In fact, her tone of voice was so frosty that it sur

prised Analise a little.

After all, this was Analise’s first time seeing Abigail wholly on guard like this.

“I know Mr. Lancome. He lives in this complex. Not only that, he was the one who asked me to bring yo

u a cake yesterday, so stop speaking so harshly to him,” Analise kindly explained while tugging on Abig

ail’s sleeve.

“Grandma-” Abigail nearly blurted out the truth but eventually held back.

Then, she took a deep breath and added, “Grandma, why don’t you go to the kitchen while I and have

a chat with him?”

go

Meanwhile, Chad watched them like a cunning fox, the wheels in his mind turning incessantly.

“Okay.” Analise turned around and entered the kitchen.

After that, Abigail walked to the door and shouted at Chad through gritted teeth, “Come out!”

Only then did he leisurely walk out of the house and follow her to the downstairs of the apartment comp

lex. Looking at the fuming Abigail, he mocked, “I thought you would always be so sure of victory before

I came over. My, my, it turns out that you, too, have moments when you feel so anxious.”

“Grandma is my family member. Of course, I am anxious. As for you, you don’t have a sense of shame

and have become someone’s lackey, eh?” Abigail countered coldly.

The complacent smile on Chad’s face faded slightly after he heard that. “Ms. Quinn, insulting guests isn

’t what a lady would do.”

“What does it matter to you whether Lam a lady or not? Stop educating me on how to be a woman. A

c*mbag like you isn’t worthy of that position.” Abigail cast him a piercing look.

This lackey of Kelly really has crossed the line!

“Ms. Quinn, it’s just a thousand pearls. Think about your grandmother. You still have to

manage “Ms. Quinn, its just a thousand pearls. Think abou L.Moon well to support her. Her health deter

iorates year after year. Surely, you need to spend money on plenty of things.” Chad folded his arms acr

oss his chest and spoke in a condescending demeanor.

“I won’t sell the pearls to you even if I keep them as marbles to play with, so you can just hold on to the

money given to you by your backer and covet them!” Abigail scoffed.

Upon hearing that, Chad looked at her with disdain. “So what if you find out? Ms. Quinn, you’d best hee

d my advice and not go against the heiress of Capitalis.”

After a momentary pause, he continued, “How about this? You can name any price you

want for the pearls. Regardless of how much, the amount of money you receive will be enough for you t

o live the rest of your life with your

grandmother. But if you go against a rich young lady such as the heiress of Capitalis, not only will you b

e miserable, but you may also involve your grandmother in this matter.”

Abigail turned down his offer as she stared him down. “I’m only going to tell you this once–

I will undoubtedly skin you alive if you cross the line like you did today. Sure, go ahead and be as proud

as you want now, but if I ever see you showing up in this complex again, I will hire someone to beat yo

u to the point you are immobilized! I dare you to try it if you don’t believe

me!”

With that, she immediately left.

Chad squinted his eyes and watched as she left. Moments after, he snorted coldly. “How undiscriminati

ng!”

After that, he turned around, and just as he was about to leave, he got punched in the face.

“Argh!” Chad cried out in pain. Before he could respond, he was kicked hard in the stomach again, cau

sing him to stagger and fall to the ground.

Cameron stepped forward, lifted him by the collar, and dragged the barely conscious Chad

toward Sean’s car.

Meanwhile, Sean sat in the car with one hand resting on the window. Although his demeanor

seemed indifferent, he was full of anger.

Cameron threw Chad to the ground before kicking him in the knee.

Chad’s legs went weak, and he knelt on the ground with a thud.

The severe pain from his knee made him break into a cold sweat, waking him up.

His b*dy trembled in fear, and his face instantly took on a total ghastly expression once he looked up a

nd saw Sean.

“What’s the matter? Did you lose the arrogance

you had earlier?” Sean tilted his head, put his fingers together to support his temples, and asked coldly.

Even though Chad tried his best to calm down, his voice couldn’t stop quivering as he mumbled, “I’m ju

st here to run errands for someone… I have no intention of giving Ms. Quinn a hard time…”

Sean snorted when he heard that. “Tsk! So, it turns out that you’re a loser who bullies the

weak and fears the strong!”

With that, he sat up straight and ordered Cameron flatly, “Disable him and then have someone send hi

m to the heiress of Capitalis bedroom.”

“Yes, Mr. Graham.” Cameron grabbed Chad by the hair and dragged him toward the trees.

As soon as Abigail returned home and saw Analise serving food to the table, she said with a straight fa

ce, “About that man… He came to my company and forced me to make a trade with him, but I refused.

That’s why he came to our house. Yet, you were still defending him earlier?”

“No, I didn’t. I really know him,” Analise replied. But since she knew Abigail was angry, her tone was sli

ghtly lower.

“Grandma, I don’t mind you making friends, but trust me, Chad isn’t a good person. Don’t treat him as a

friend anymore, got it? He approached you on purpose. Besides, how can you tell if he tells a few lies?

” Abigail expressed her powerlessness.

It seems that Chad has arrived here for a long time and has investigated everything about me in the sh

adows!
