The Spare Wife by Nadia Gordon

Chapter 443 No Backing

Abigail was beginning to understand the challenges of operating in Capitalis. Unknown enemies had been working against her and her team since last year, only taking a brief respite while she was in Faglia. Now, the Pearson Family had joined in. Even with L.Moon’s stellar reputation in the industry, it was difficult to make headway without strong backing.

“Luna, do you think we should look for more powerful collaborators?” She turned to Luna.

“Powerful collaborators usually aim to acquire us. If you want help from them, they won’t do it genuinely,” Luna replied. Since L.Moon’s reputation had started to grow, countless investors wanted to buy into the company. They offered a lot of money but came with various demands and traps.

One misstep and L.Moon would end up in someone else’s hands, with both still counting money for others.

Hearing Luna’s response, Abigail sighed involuntarily. “We’re pretty isolated in Capitalis, aren’t we?”

“That’s right, but our goal is to deal with Kelly. Even if she’s making a mess right now, the Pearson Family will resent her even more when her true identity is revealed,” Luna stated.

Abigail nodded but did not say much. From her perspective, they needed a powerful ally for L.Moon to establish a stable foothold in Capitalis. However, their current ownership was divided. While Fairy Meadow was an established brand, it had already reached the end of its journey. A situation like this was suitable for stable development but not for engaging in more conflicts.

“I’ll meet with Fairy Meadow and see how it goes. Regardless of the situation, as long as the new product launch is successful and Fairy Meadow’s sales take off, the pressure from the Pearson Family will be temporary,” Luna said as she prepared to go find Howard.

Abigail decided to enjoy the massager for a while and consider it a day of rest.

Sean sat on the couch in the Pearson Residence’s living room while sipping his tea. When Josh rushed over and saw the figure, he immediately questioned, “What are you doing here?”

“Mr. Pearson, you probably don’t know what your parents did, do you?” Sean put down his teacup, his face wearing a cold expression.

“If you have something to say, just spill it.” Josh had a big grudge against Sean now. Not for anything else but because Sean’s subordinate, Cameron, slapped Kelly at the hospital. After she returned, her face was swollen for days.

“Kelly was hit by my subordinate, but your parents caused trouble for Abigail and Luna. What’s the meaning of this?” Sean stood up and questioned Josh with a cold expression.

Josh could not help but furrow his brows. “My parents caused trouble for them?”

You can investigate if you don’t know, but don’t ask me Scan retorted with a cold expression

“Mr. Graham, now that your subordinate has become Abigail’s assistant, it’s only nature; for him to bear the consequences of his actions, Scarlett said with a tope filled with disgust as she descended from upstairs.

Sean looked at her. “Why didn’t you try to deal with me when Cameron was one of mine? As soon as he went to Abigail’s side, the Pearsons didn’t hesitate to demand his accountability. Is your family afraid of me?”

She sneered upon hearing that. “The Pearson Family has no reason to fear you. It’s always been Abigail who caused these troubles. She just can’t stand Kelly. I know it very well. Originally, it was she who returned to the Pearson Family, but when she found out that Kelly was our biological daughter, she became upset and targeted her. All those moments when she refused to return home was just a facade!”

“Mom, how can you say such things?” Josh could not help but speak up in response to Scarlett’s rant.

“Why can’t I? Kelly is innocent, yet Abigail deliberately antagonizes her, even having her slapped! Abigail’s scheming is beyond your imagination!” she exclaimed angrily. “Kelly is your sister. Why are you always siding with that woman?!”

Before Sean could speak, she continued, “Are you doing this for Luna? For the sake of a woman, you don’t even care about the grievances your sister has suffered. How are you still her brother? She was missing for so many years, and when she came back, she was harassed by Abigail. You’re not standing by her side as her brother but instead helping outsiders!”

Sean felt irritated by her constant chatter. He said with a cold expression, “Your family’s private affairs are not my concern. If you’re using Cameron as an excuse, fine. I will make sure he returns to me today. If the Pearson Family has the guts, you know who to come at

“Sean, your interference will only make things worse. L.Moon’s collaboration with Fairy Meadow is not to help the latter but an opportunity to establish its brand. If they lose this pillar, L.Moon will only ever remain as a team designing for others. They won’t be able to achieve much,” Scarlett said with a hint of satisfaction in her eyes.

He gazed at her coldly without responding.

“How could you get involved in suppressing L.Moon as well? Mom, your actions disappoint me! You say Kelly was innocent when she was hit, but let me ask you this-why did she have contact with Old Mrs. Pendorf but suddenly came to Capitalis to harass Abigail. Who

If he did not have some concrete evidence, he would have sided with his sister.
