Chapter 263
The Spare Wife by Nadia Gordon
Chapter 263 Kill Two Birds With One Stone Kelly returned to her room, closed the door, and sat on the edge of the bed. After some time, she took out her phone and looked at the peacock overtone on the screen. Then, she was lost in thought. Itâs normal for the Pearsons to be able to afford the Tahitian pearls. However. I doubt Abigail went to Eastbay just to buy a pearl for Luna as jewelry.
Can you guys help me find out what Abigail bought when she went to Eastbay? In return, Iâll assist you with somethingâto wipe out anyone who knows the truth about the Pearson Family. After she was done editing her message, she sent it with a smile.
In the meantime, Abigail sneezed.
âDid you catch a cold when you visited Eastbay?â Analise hurried over and touched her forehead.
âNo. Itâs just that my nose suddenly itched. Maybe because Orangie is around?â replied Abigail as she rubbed her nose and looked at the orange cat crouching at her feet.
âNonsense. Iâve always used the cat supplies that Luna bought for me. Thereâs never a single strand of cat fur in the house.â
Analise refused to admit that Orangie might be the cause of Abigailâs sneeze.
âIâm just saying,â said Abigail as she let out a yawn.
âJust go and sleep if youâre tired. Donât push yourself too hard.â Analise patted her shoulder.
âI know,â replied Abigail. It was just that she wanted to spend more time with her grandma.
As Analise looked at her for a while, she casually asked, âItâs been some time since the Pearsons looked for you.â
Hearing her words, Abigail knew she was concerned about her. âThey wonât look for us anymore, Theyâve already found the person they were looking for. Donât worry. Itâs all a misunderstanding.â To ease Analiseâs concerns, she decided to tell her the truth.
When Analise heard it, she was shocked. âTheyâve found her?â
âWhatâs wrong?â Abigail looked at her.
Immediately, Analise waved her hands and said, âItâs nothing. Itâs good that theyâve found her. Did you meet the child? Does she resemble you in any way?â
âNo. I didnât get the time. Plus, itâs not my business, nothing interesting. Anyway, you can rest easy from now on, Grandma.
Nobody will ever come to take your granddaughter away again,â Abigail said softly.
Hearing her words, Analise managed a forced smile and did not say anything. Instead, she absentmindedly watched the TV while holding Orangie.
After this matter had passed, Abigail returned to her room. As she recalled Analiseâs odd reaction, she could not help but let her thoughts wander. Is Grandma disappointed because Iâm not the daughter of the Pearson Family? Or perhaps she was worried about me being taken away but also secretly hoped that the Pearsons would recognize me? However, Grandma isnât one to seek personal gain. Sheâs an honest person. Hence, there is no way sheâd want me to be mistaken for the Pearson Familyâs daughter just because they were rich. If she has a connection with the Pearson Family, whatâs with the girl they found?
As she thought about it, her mind was a mess. She ran her fingers through her hair and decided to message Luna when Sean called. At that moment, she accidentally answered his call. Then, she reluctantly held her phone to her ear.
âAre you at home?â he asked straightforwardly.
âWhatâs the matter?â She countered.
âImissed you. Thatâs all.â Seanâs voice was low and husky.
âOh, I see,â Abigail responded with an expressionless face. She wondered if he got any inspiration from Ericâs post to be so straightforward.
He fell silent momentarily before asking, âDo you have any thoughts about Ericâs post?â
Hearing his words, she did not answer immediately. She thought about her feelings when she read the post and replied, âI donât know. It felt strange realizing that Iâve also had moments when I had been on someoneâs mind for three years.â
âOkay. I understand,â said Sean. Then, he ended the call.
Abigail held her phone and felt puzzled by his response. Meanwhile, Sean was with Kevin. He held a can of beer in one hand and his phone in the other, silently staring at her name. From the moment he saw that post, he was unsettled. Finally, under Kevinâs prodding, he made the call, and the outcome was as they had expected.
âDamn...â Kevin took a sip of his beer and had mixed feelings. After all, Eric had defied everyone to clear Abigailâs name and increase Alanaâs popularity. Any woman would be touched by his actions. Now, people were shipping the duo on social media.
No one had remembered the once assistant and presidentâs couple pairing.
âIf she falls for it, itâll be troublesome,â he expressed his concerns as he looked at Sean, who had remained silent for a long time.
âI know.â Sean put down his phone and lowered his eyes. He was in deep thought.
Looking at him, Kevin placed his beer down and asked, âWhatâs your plan?â
âThe Davidsons wonât agree to this. Even if Eric is persistent about this, thereâs no use. His family gave him everything. The reason he dares to go against the entertainment agency is because his parents opened it for his sake.â Sean looked at Kevin.
âYouâve done your research. Whatâs next, then?â Kevin asked, appearing attentive.
âThen, itâs time for us to take action. The entertainment industry is full of unknown dangers. They will surely do something bad to Abby to crush Ericâs spirit.â Seanâs cycs darkened.
âKill two birds with one stone, huh...â Kevin mumbled.
