I Want a Divorce by Abigail Quinn

Chapter 241 Present

That evening, Abigail arrived at the restaurant chosen by Josh. As she exited the car, she spotted Eric

waving at her from the restaurant entrance. Walking over with a faint smile, she asked, “This is Josh’s

party. Why are you here as well?” Eric had been helping her behind the scenes lately, and she had

wanted to thank him in person.

“What? Am I not welcome here?” he retorted playfully.

“This isn’t my party; I would never dare to refuse you,” she said as she walked into the restaurant.

Suddenly, he called out to her. “Abigail.”

Abigail stopped and turned around, looking at Eric with confusion. “What is it

“A gift for you.” He handed her a box.

She looked down at the velvet box and softly asked, “What’s this?”

“Look. It’s a bracelet.” He opened the box and held the present up for her to look at. He nervously

scratched his nose as he said, rushing his words, “I asked Josh to carve it out of small acacia tree

wood. Inside the largest bead is a GPS tracker.”

Abigail was surprised as she took the bracelet and carefully examined it. The largest bead was as big

as her thumbnail and completely hollow.

“The bead right here is a button. Press it if anything ever happens to you, and the GPS tracker will be

activated. It has enough battery to last around three days,” Eric explained.

While looking at the bracelet, she was lost in thought when she heard the words “small acacia tree.”

She had previously bought Sean an antique puzzle ball on a necklace made from small acacia wood by

Josh. It was a minor coincidence, but it instantly reminded her of that necklace, giving her a strange

feeling, as if they were a couple’s accessories.

“Let me put it on for you,” he offered, oblivious to her peculiar behavior. His throat bobbed nervously.

Abigail was lost in her thoughts about the small acacia tree wood and didn’t register Eric’s words. She

simply made a non–committal sound in response.

It was only when he grabbed her hand that she snapped back to reality. She twitched, about to pull

away, but she saw sincerity in his eyes.

The bracelet was soon secured around her wrist, and he released her hand. The whole process took

only a few seconds.

He looked at her with admiration in his eyes. “It’s just a bracelet made of wooden beads. It’s not

worth much, so no criminal will instantly target

it

Eric’s words made Abigail realize how thoughtful he had been about the gift. “Thank you,” she said,

looking down at the bracelet.

She hadn’t planned on wearing it, but since it was already on her wrist, she decided to keep it on.

Besides, small acacia tree wood didn’t belong exclusively to Sean, so why shouldn’t she wear

something made from it?

“I

got this for your grandmother,” he said, pulling another box from his pocket.

“Another bracelet?” she asked, surprised.

Abigail was initially going to reject the present. After all, she did not like to accept presents from men

without an apparent reason. However, if he had also bought one for Analise, that would have changed

things.

“Yes. I also had a GPS tracker installed in it,” Eric added, his face innocent.

That made her wholeheartedly accept the present. “Thank you.” After taking the box from him, they

walked into the restaurant.

Standing somewhat nearby by a car was Sean. His face was unusually frosty. Kevin, who was standing

next to him, felt like slapping himself. Why did he invite Sean out for a drink and a talk? Why did he

have to choose this specific restaurant? Look at what happened!

“S–Shall we go somewhere else?” Kevin asked awkwardly.

Sean’s face darkened, giving Kevin a sidelong glance as he calmly retorted, “Why should we do that?”

Kevin scratched his head. “Abigail… Ms. Quinn seems to have accepted someone else’s offer. There

are plenty of fish in the sea. Why must it be her?” He knew that there was no use trying to persuade

Sean, but he still did not want Sean to obsess over her. Once Sean dug his heels in, everyone around

him would suffer.

“I simply insist on having her. Not even 10 Erics can change my mind,” Sean said, walking into the

restaurant.

Did Abigail think she could abandon him just because she said she did not love him? No way! She was

the one who insisted on marrying him.

Kevin swiftly followed after Sean, saying, “Won’t you feel hurt to see her acting intimate with Eric later?”

Sean pursed his lips as he clenched his jaw.

That was what he deserved anyway. After all, he did not cherish her in the past.

Josh had booked a table on the top floor. Due to how expensive it was to dine on the top floor, there

were only over a dozen tables. The walls were replaced by floor–to–ceiling windows, allowing diners to

view Pendorf’s night sky.

When Abigail sat down, she spotted Kevin and Sean walk into the restaurant. A haughty, cold look

instantly replaced the nonchalance on her face. She picked up the menu and started ordering, ignoring

the two men.

Kevin decided to walk over to her table when he spotted Abigail. A sly grin was on his face as he

greeted, “What a coincidence, Abigail. You’re dining here, too? Sean and I are dining here as well.”

She did not look up at him as she politely chuckled and replied, “Yes. What a coincidence.” She was

acting very distant, and it felt like a stab to Kevin’s heart.

Sean was looking at her wrist with restrained inquisitiveness. As she was wearing a long–sleeved shirt,

he could not see what Eric’s gift was.
