I Want a Divorce by Nadia Gordon

Chapter 215 How Many More Explanations Necessary

Abigail spent several days in the hospital, keeping Analise company. Her grandmother had already

regained consciousness, but since the day Sean had discussed the divorce with Abigail, he had not

revisited Analise. Abigail had started to wonder if Sean’s absence was intentional, perhaps as a way to

prolong the matter.

Lying in bed, Analise weakly suggested. “Call Sean and ask when he’s coming over.”

While peeling a banana for her grandmother, Abigail replied, “Sure, I’ll call him once you finish. this

banana.”

Analise looked affectionately at Abigail. “Will you resent me for pushing you to get a divorce?”

You might find it amusing, Grandma, but I had suggested getting a divorce many times before this,”

Abigail replied with a bitter smile.

“Why would I laugh at you… Was it because you learned about his infidelity when you mentioned

wanting to work and have your income?” Analise asked while eating the banana.

“I don’t know how to explain it,” Abigail answered, avoiding eye contact. “You should ask him yourself.”

Analise sighed. “With his grandma being the way she is… you’ll only suffer if you stay married to him. I

know you’ve always loved him, but love cannot be enough to live on…”

“I know, Grandma. I understand now,” Abigail replied softly. She deeply regretted marrying Sean simply

because she liked him. The man had shattered all her hopes for a blissful marriage.

“At the time, I didn’t want you to marry him… How can we match up to a family like his?” Analise

murmured.

“I was wrong, Grandma,” Abigail choked. Her feelings for him nearly led to Analise’s death. If Abigail

hadn’t insisted on marrying Sean, Analise wouldn’t have ended up in the hospital and forced to

undergo a craniotomy. Her elderly grandmother had to suffer because of her.

“I never blamed you for your decision. I just hope to see you happy,” Analise said, her eyes red..

After Analise finished her banana and closed her eyes for a nap, Abigail called Sean. She had to ring

him several times before he finally picked up his phone.

“Grandma wants to talk to you. When are you coming over?” she asked him, striving to keep her voice

steady.

However, he didn’t respond right away.

She heard his faint breathing sounds, so she didn’t rush him.

Moments later, he said quietly, “I’ll come over tonight.”

“Okay.” After ending the call, Abigail took a deep breath.

Her feelings for Sean ended up hurting her and her grandmother, leaving him dissatisfied. It was time

for her to wake up from her dream.

At night, Analise was awake when Sean came over.

“Abby, go and get some grapes for me.” Analise wanted to speak with him in private.

Abigail nodded and left. After closing the door behind her, she stood still and exhaled. As she

approached the elevator, she encountered Luna, who had arrived after work.

“How are you? Did Sean come today?” Luna took Abigail’s hand with a look of concern.

“He’s in the room talking to Grandma privately,” Abigail said calmly.

Lúna tugged on Abigail’s hand. “Let’s go on a walk together.”

“Yeah, sure.” Abigail entered the elevator.

Neither one spoke while leaving the hospital and stepping out into the night.

“I never thought the two of you would end up like this… Still, everything will be better after the divorce.

No one will force you to eat those things and get those ridiculous injections!” Luna purposely kept her

tone light as she held Abigail’s hand tightly.

“Yeah. You’re right,” Abigail responded with a smile.

They reached the fruit store, where Abigail purchased grapes and other items. As they left the store,

she couldn’t help but wonder about Analise and Sean’s conversation.

Inside the hospital room, Sean sat down beside Analise.

After staring at him a while, she said, “I always thought you were a good man. Even though you had a

privileged upbringing, you didn’t turn out like all the other rich young men who live idle lives without

doing anything. I thought you’d be good to Abby.”

“Grandma.” He gazed apologetically at her.

He truly regretted the way he had hurt Abigail. Would things have turned out differently if he had told

her from the start that he was not involved with Joan in any way?

Analise’s tears trickled out of the corners of her eyes. “I’m so disappointed in you, Sean. I thought you

weren’t like all the other rich young men. I never thought you’d cheat on her. How could you do this to

Abby, who spent the last three years eating all kinds of supplements and getting injections for you?”

“Grandma, would you believe me if I told you I didn’t cheat on her?” Sean looked her in the eyes. He

truly hoped that she would trust him.

She turned away from him. “How can it be false when your grandmother came to our door and said so

herself? She’s your grandmother. Would she tarnish your name like that? What do you Grahams take

Abby for anyway? She’s my one and only granddaughter. What gives Grahams the right to take her for

granted and abuse the sincerity of her feelings for you?”

Sean’s heart was shaken. He had always believed that Abigail married into the family as a gesture of

gratitude, a notion repeated by Lina. It never occurred to him that Abigail truly loved him.

Feeling Analise’s distress, he set aside his emotions and gently held her hand. “Please calm down. You

need to watch out for your health.”
