Chapter 6
The Spare Wife by Nadia Gordon
Chapter 6 Sean felt agitated as he glanced at the divorce settlement and the several cards in his hand. I simply thought she was just throwing a tantrum. How dare she think of divorcing me!
âAre you being serious right now?â He held back his anger and managed to ask through his teeth.
Abigail quirked a brow at him and replied nonchalantly, âI am dead serious.
Sign it, and we will go through the procedures when both of us are free later.
Sean looked at his wife before his eyes relentlessly as he thought, We have been married for three years, and Abigail has been fulfilling her duty as Mrs.
Graham. Sheâs wellâbehaved, obedient, and kind to my family members.
More so, she pleases me in every possible way. Yet, sheâs like a different person now.
As he regarded her fair and lustrous face painted with impatience that was completely different from before and listened to the icy cold words that 12:09 Sun, 24 Sept 60 Chapter 6 Letâs Go Through the Procedures 2/6 escaped her lips, he felt a knife stabbing through his heart as he realized that Abigail was truly looking forward to leaving him. So, he quickly retracted his gaze, turned around, and walked into the living room. âThereâs no need for that. I will see you at the City Hall front entrance tomorrow at 9.00AM.â His indifferent voice sounded.
At first, Abigail thought that she was all prepared for this day. It was only at this moment that she truly realized that her heart was still in pain like it was getting pricked with thousands of needles. Half of her body went numb. In fact, she didnât even know how she managed to walk out of the house.
She returned to the studio in a daze and lay on the bed, only to realize that her stomach was churning in pain after a while.
So, she hastily covered her mouth and rushed into the bathroom before vomiting everything she ate and drank earlier that evening. Still, the pain in her stomach worsened instead of being relieved.
To make matters worse, whenever she suffered from digestive troubles, she would feel nothing but excruciating pain. Since she hadnât had a relapse for a Chapter 6 Letâs Go Through the Procedures 3/6 long time, she had completely forgotten about the agony she would have to endure. Therefore, she didnât even bother taking her stomach medicine with her when she moved out. At this moment, the journey from her bathroom to her bedside could result in her back drenching in a cold sweat. Still, she gritted her teeth and endured the pain as she grabbed her phone to call Luna.
To her dismay, Luna didnât hear her phone ringing at all as she was sleeping like a log.
As she feared she would die of pain in the studio tonight, she eventually called Sean after a great deal of hesitation. However, no one picked up during the first call. Thus, she called again. This time, it was answered after the second ring, and a soft, waxy voice sounded from the other end of the phone. As soon as Abigail heard the voice, she could tell it was Joan. âHello?
Who is it?â
He was still alone when I left the apartment just now. Yet, heâs already with Joan within seconds! Damn it! I was out of my mind to think of asking Sean Sun, 24 Sept Chapter 6 Letâs Go Through the Procedures for help! Thus, Abigail swiftly silenced herself instead of answering.

When Joan heard no response on the other end, she tentatively asked, âIs it you, Abigail? Are you looking for Sean?â
As she had no intention of hearing Joan say something nonsense like Sean was taking a shower, she promptly hung up the phone. Then, she curled up on the carpet, frowned, and blocked all of Seanâs contact.
Then, she suddenly lost her vision and passed out once she placed her phone away.
âAbigail?â
Luna woke Abigail up early the next morning.
4/6 As Luna was still wearing her pajamas, she obviously rushed here before she had time to change. Then, she said guiltily, âWas it your digestive troubles? Itâs 12:09 Sun, 24 Sept O Chapter 6 Letâs Go Through the Procedures all my fault. I slept like a log last night and didnât hear your call!â

However, Abigail couldnât be bothered about that right now. Instead, she jerked up and demanded, âWhat time is it?â
âItâs 9.00AM.â
At once, Abigailâs mind buzzed. Sh*t! Iâm late!
âSean and I have agreed to meet at the City Hall and go through the divorce settlement procedures at 9.00AM today.â
Abigail grabbed the phone that had fallen on the carpet and hastily called him as she knew that Sean despised people being late.
5/6 The phone rang once before it got automatically hung up. Did Sean block my contact as well?
In the same amount of timidness as her speed in blocking Sean last night, Abigail unblocked him and made a voice call.
SUIT, 24 Sepi Chapter 6 Letâs Go Through the Procedures 6/6 Once the call got through, she probed courteously and distantly, âAre you still at the City Hall? Iâm going over now.â
Seanâs brisk voice sounded through the receiver. âAre you saying I have to wait for you at the City Hall front entrance for half an hour?â
Abigail didnât bother explaining herself since she was in the wrong. Thus, she got up and changed her clothes while apologizing on the phone, âI am so sorry. Iâll try to hurry up. 20 minutes? Is it okay?â
Seanâs voice tinged with a chilling sense of anger. âDo you think my time is as worthless as you?â
