Chapter 335 Trouble Resurfaces

Ever since Abigail started working in the studio, she had been avoiding meeting guests.

Many times, Josh tried to visit but was met with closed doors.

However, after a week of avoiding him, Abigail eventually ran into him as she was leaving work.

“Abigail, can I invite you to dinner?” he asked,

“My grandmother has already prepared dinner at home and is waiting for me,” she replied coldly.

“Abigail, can’t we at least be friends?” His voice held a hint of disappointment.

“Given your personality, you should have left when I said those things that day. The only reason you’re

still here in Pendorf is because your sister doesn’t want to leave. Am I right? You want to befriend me

because of her, but if we have a disagreement in the future, it is probably due to her too,” she stated

coldly.

This left him speechless.

“Don’t waste your time. Your sister and I can only be strangers. Whatever wish she has doesn’t have

anything to do with me. I’m not God who grants people’s wishes just because they have one.” After

saying that, she walked past him.

Josh once again tried to approach her but was blocked by Cameron, who had appeared out of

nowhere.

“Mr. Pearson, Ms. Quinn doesn’t want to speak with you. Please leave,” he said, his eyes cold and his

demeanor unwavering, like a loyal and resolute wolf.

Suddenly, Abigail took a couple of steps and said to him, “Let’s go. Come home with me to have

dinner.”

Cameron was a bit surprised, but he happily followed her. After all, it was indeed more relaxed, working

with her compared to Sean. Even when Sean didn’t speak, his presence exuded a commanding air.

Meanwhile, Josh, who had experienced repeated failures, stood in place and sighed.

Theoretically speaking, they didn’t have much of a grudge against each other, but even so, he had

faced refusals from her repeatedly. At the thought of the fact that Sean could still have a decent

conversation with her, he believed Sean must have put in much more effort than he had.

In the evening, while Abigail continued her work, she suddenly received a call from Kelly.

Initially, she didn’t want to answer, but Kelly called persistently, distracting her. In the end, she

answered the call with a displeased expression. “What is it?”

“Actually, my target is not you this time. Can you guess who it is?” Kelly’s voice carried a hint of

amusement.

Her two-faced behavior made Abigail frown, and she felt a sense of aversion.

“What does that have anything to do with me?” she asked in a calm tone, continuing to sew pearls onto

the tulle fabric with her eyes lowered.

After a chuckle, Kelly said with some jealousy in her voice, “Sean treats you so well, but you’re

trampling on his kindness. You truly don’t deserve to be treated well by anyone.”

It was at this moment that Abigail finally understood that Kelly had set her sights on Sean. Does this

mean that she doesn’t want to marry Eric?

“You like Sean? Don’t you want to marry into the Davidson Family?” she asked directly.

Arrogantly, Kelly responded, “That’s right. Originally, I thought Eric was fine, but after seeing Sean, I

found him even better.”

Hearing that, Abigail thought, Does she think she’s a queen who can choose men at will?

“Go after him, then. Why are you calling me? Do you want me to be a matchmaker?” She sneered, her

tone filled with mockery.

“Abigail, I’m just telling you that what you don’t cherish will always be cherished by someone else,”

Kelly said before hanging up.

She now hoped that Abigail would push away everyone who was being good to the latter so that when

everyone disliked her, she would realize her misery and failure.

Abigail thought that Kelly would make some earth-shattering revelation, but it turned out she was just

telling her that she was here to steal a man.

Since her divorce from Sean, Abigail had made a decision not to be entangled in matters of love. There

were many things in this world that could be done, and love was not the only thing that defined her.

She went from liking Sean to marrying him, giving all her love to this man. She believed that she had

given her all in the relationship and didn’t owe him anything, so she didn’t feel guilty now, even when

she was treating him badly.

Soon, it was mid-September.

This day, as soon as Abigail arrived at the company, she received a message from her lawyer telling

her that the first trial for Kingston’s case was confirmed.

‘How’s the evidence coming along? Do you think you have a good chance of winning in the first

trial?’

‘We’ve collected a fair amount of evidence, but we can’t be certain. Kingston also has a lawyer. If he

doesn’t accept the verdict, he might appeal, and a second trial is possible.”

Abigail knew that legal proceedings like this were not easy.

If he disagreed with the verdict in the second trial, he could still file an appeal. If the Supreme Court

deemed that the trial result was not flawed, they would reject his appeal and uphold the verdict from the

first trial.

‘Alright, I get it..

After sending the message, she received another message from the court, expressing their hope that

she could mediate with Kingston.

Of course, this was something the court had to offer before the first trial. However, after her refusal,

they didn’t bother her further.

Meanwhile, as Joan accompanied Lina for her morning run, she received a reminder from Kingston’s

buddy.

Kingston’s first trial is coming up.

“You know that Kingston has no chance of winning at all, right? It’s been so long since you

accompanied that old lady for morning runs and shopping every day. Haven’t you made any progress

at all?”

Joan looked at Lina in front of her and remained silent for a moment before whispering, “I’ve already

mapped out all the routes in the Graham Estate. If your side is ready, we can put our plan. into action.”
