Chapter 268
The Spare Wife by Nadia Gordon
Chapter 268 Threats Analiseâs expression softened as she sat at the dining table, but there was a hint of worry in her eyes.
âWhy would the Davidsons suddenly target your work? Is it related to the heiress from the Pearson Family?â she couldnât help but ask.
Abigail looked at her grandmother with confusion. âHow is it related to her? Itâs just that Eric and I had a little issue that got blown out of proportion online. Itâs complicated, but in short, the Davidsons are unhappy with me now.â
âWhy is it complicated? Why would they have a problem with you out of nowhere? Explain this to me! I might not interfere with your affairs, but if youâre being bullied, I canât just stand by and do nothing!â Analise was visibly angry, with her hands on her hips and her brows furrowed.
âGrandma, donât be upset. Be careful of your blood pressure. Itâs just that Eric is related to the Pearson Family through a marriage arrangement. He didnât want to say that he liked me openly, and then the Davidsons started disliking me. They even canceled the order they had placed with studio,â Abigail explained, feeling a bit embarrassed.
my Analise looked at her in silence for a while before swiftly getting up to clear the dishes.
âIâll keep my distance from them in the future. I wonât let myself get into a bad situation again just because of something like this.
I wonât let you worry, Grandma,â Abigail assured, noticing that her grandmother was upset.
âIâm not upset with you. Itâs late. Go rest,â Analise said, her tone low.
She was upset with herself.
âGrandma...â Abigail began to say.
Analise suddenly looked up and gazed at her with a loving expression. âI donât have that much free time to worry about all these messy matters of yours. Youâre an adult now, and you can handle these things on your own. I wonât meddle in your affairs.â
Abigail nodded with a smile upon hearing her words.
Once Abigail was in her room, Analise put down the cutlery, sat on a chair, and murmured absentmindedly, âDarling, did I do the right thing or the wrong thing...â
Abigail arrived early at the studio. Her assistant approached her with a nervous expression, smiling as she spoke. âA jeweler is here, and heâs waiting for you in your office.â
1. 1. A jeweler visiting her studio out of the blue was quille oud, expecially since L Moon and jewelry âAlright, Iâll go take a look, Abigail sabl, heading toward her office.
The resistant continued, âAlso, Micah, the designe, submitted the resignation this morning. Miss Smith is on a business trip and doesnât know yer. Weâre short stalled at the moment. HR hasnât approved it yer. Weâre walling for your decision and Miss Smithâsâ
Abigail massaged her temples as she asked, âDid she come today?â
âNo,â the assistant replied.
âTâll call her later. Have HR hold off on any action for now.â Abigail said before entering her office with a smile The jeweler was a middleâaged man named Chad Lancome. He was dressed in a burgundy handmade suit, and his Bogers were adorned with e quisite rings, but his appearance was rather ordinary Upon seeing Abigail, he stood up from his chair bediately and greeted her with a smile. âMs. Quinn, Iâm Chad Lancome, the heat of Katie Jewelryâ
âHello, Iâm Abigail Quinnâ she replied, thereafter approaching and taking a seat.
âI know you must be very busy, so let me get straight to the point, Iâm interested in purchasing the peacock overtone pearls that Ronaldo sold to you. I have a wealthy client in Capitalis who wants to use these pearls to create a set of jewelry for her family reunion banquet. Price is not an issue, as long as you are willing to part with them, any amount will do,â Chad explained leisurely.
his tone polite.
However, Abigail was more intrigued by the mention of a family reunion banquet.
Can it be Kelly? Capitalis... A family reunion banquet...
No matter how Abigail thought about it, she couldnât help but think of Kelly That being said, her transaction with Ronaldo hadnât been publicized. It was impossible for anyone to know that Ronaldo had sold the peacock overtone pearls to her unless they specifically investigated.
In the end, Abigail pushed aside her thoughts and gave a calm response. âTim sorry, but I wonât sell them at any price.â
Chad smiled faintly as he commented, âMy client specifically requested your pearls. If you offend her, it wonât be beneficial for you.â
âMr. Lancome, the deal wonât go through. Are you going to use lowly tactics? Peel tie to tell you client that since these pearls were acquired by L.Moon, they are now even more valuable than gold. They are not for sale!â
Abigail spoke with a smile, yet her gaze turned iceâcold. She lifted her chin slightly, a touch of mockery in her tone.
âItâs just one thousand Marimora pearls. Why go through all this trouble to offend a wealthy heiress? L.Moon is very new, and it would be difficult for it to recover from a setback,â Chad said casually, lifting his coffee cup and taking a leisurely sip.
âMr. Lancome, this conference room is equipped with surveillance. If anything happens to L.Moon down the line, I will make sure to take you and that heiress to court. The discussion is over. Please leave,â Abigail stated, her tone unwavering.
She pushed back her chair and stood up before calling out to her assistant outside, âEscort Mr.
Lancome out!â
