Chapter 632 Everything Goes Black

Sean glanced at Abigail.

Abigail looked at Lawrence and said softly, “You may think I’m heartless, but let me tell you, many

children from dysfunctional families have parents like mine. Cutting ties is the only way to make

yourself more comfortable.”

She didn’t hold onto those outdated beliefs, as she only believed in one thing. “If you treat me well, I’ll

treat you well; if you treat me poorly, don’t expect me to show any mercy.”

Emotions were meant to be reciprocal, so why should one side endure the pain and accept moral

constraints? And why should the one who hurt others be exempt from moral condemnation just

because they have no shame?

What kind of logic was that?

“Life may seem long, but it’s actually short. It’s most important to be good to yourself,” Abigail

continued.

“I know. I will overcome this hurdle,” Lawrence said warmly as he looked at Abigail. “Thank you, Abby. I

wouldn’t have been able to hold on without you today.”

“Have you eaten yet?” Abigail’s voice softened.

“Not yet…” Lawrence replied. Their house was in a mess, and their long-time housekeeper had left

today because she couldn’t bear it anymore.

They came back from work to find an empty house with nothing prepared for dinner, and then Molly

showed up with a group of people who caused a scene.

Abigail looked at Sean.

“I’m a decent cook. If you and Mrs. Pearson don’t mind, I can show you what I can do,” Sean said as

he rolled up his sleeves.

“Forget it, we’ll just order takeout. You just arrived today, and you must be tired.” Lawrence shook his

head.

“I’m not tired,” Sean immediately replied.

Today, Lawrence’s words made him feel guilty. He felt guilty toward Abigail, and he thought that no

matter how good he was to her now, it couldn’t make up for the past hurt.

“Let him give it a try,” she said with a smile. It was the first time she had shown such an expression at

home.

Lawrence and Scarlett could only agree.

Abigail followed Sean into the kitchen and asked, “Are you okay? You look tired.”

“What’s the big deal about cooking a meal? You can go and sit outside.” Sean pushed her out of the

kitchen.

“I can help, too,” Abigail said.

“I only remember your kitchen mishap. I don’t know if you can be of any help,” he said helplessly as he

looked at her.

Abigail felt a bit embarrassed when she thought about the time she accidentally knocked over a pot in

the kitchen.

“Alright, then I’ll leave the kitchen to you.”

Sean nodded.

Abigail returned to the living room and saw Lawrence and Scarlett quietly wiping away their tears. She

walked over and handed them tissues.

The pain that parents bring to their children is only known by the children themselves.

Lawrence took the tissues and looked at Abigail with embarrassment. “I made you witness a joke.”

“This is not a joke. No matter how old a person is, the bond between parents will never change. Which

child doesn’t want their parents to love them forever?” Abigail said gently.

When he heard this, Lawrence’s eyes became even redder.

Scarlett held him tightly. “It’s okay…

While they were talking, they heard the sound of plates breaking in the kitchen. Lawrence and Scarlett

hurriedly looked over.

“I’ll go check it out.” Abigail immediately turned and walked toward the kitchen.

Sean was already squatting on the floor as he picked up the broken pieces.

Abigail walked up to him and asked worriedly, “What happened?”

“I accidentally broke it,” he replied.

She had seen him cook many times, and he had never been like this before, so she frowned and

looked at Sean. “Let me help you.”

“It’s fine; you don’t have to worry about me,” Sean continued.

Abigail noticed that his face was a bit pale. She stopped talking and started picking up the pieces for

him.

The moment Sean stood up, everything went black before his eyes. If Abigail hadn’t thrown away the

broken pieces and held onto him, he would have fallen.

“What’s wrong with you?” Abigail asked as she held Sean.

It took Sean a while to react. He smiled bitterly and leaned against Abigail. “I don’t know. I felt dizzy and

lightheaded suddenly. I’ll go to the hospital for a check-up tomorrow.”

Abigail guessed that it was probably because he was seriously injured in the Golden Triangle and was

left with some aftereffects.

The two of them finished cooking together, and Sean was already too tired to stay awake.

Abigail glanced at him and couldn’t help but say, “Would you consider taking a nap first and eating after

you’ve rested?”

Sean simply lay down on the couch. “I think it’s better for me to take a nap.”

He indeed felt like his b*dy weighed a thousand pounds, and something was definitely not right.

He lay down and immediately fell asleep.

Abigail stood beside the couch as she looked at the exhaustion on his face and suddenly understood

that Sean was no longer the same as before. His b*dy had suffered severe injuries in the Golden

Triangle.

“Abby, let’s eat first,” Scarlett whispered.

Abigail returned to the dining table but couldn’t eat much.

“Sean’s b*dy is not as strong as before, right?” Lawrence asked Abigail in a low voice.

She nodded. “Yes, it seems so. We’ll have to go to the hospital for a detailed examination.”

“I shouldn’t have said those words today. He has done so much for you and Luna, yet I hurt him with

my thoughtless remarks.” Lawrence regretted his emotional outburst today as he realized how

inappropriate and hurtful his words were.
