The Spare Wife by Nadia Gordon

Chapter 483 Wanting to Hold Her

Howard also felt very sad upon hearing the barely noticeable trace of emotion in Abigail’s voice. Leland used to work for Flower Meadow and was related to the previous shareholders who sold their stakes. Therefore, this incident was considered trouble that Flower Meadow brought to them.

“I think we should just take back Leland’s house. We shouldn’t have been so nice to them.” Howard fell silent for a long while before making a decision.

“How influential are our shareholders in Capitalis?” Abigail didn’t believe that things were as simple as they appeared.

Howard approached and whispered, “Mr. O’Neils knows a lot of people, while the other two who own a lot of stocks also have many connections but aren’t loyal. They’re just in it for the dividends and can’t be relied on.”

“In that case, talk to Mr. O’Neils and have him investigate Leland’s wife, Giada Cain, and her family. Her child has super-male syndrome. I looked it up and found that it’s dangerous. I suspect someone found out about his genetic issue and set us up,” Abigail said, refusing to believe that things could be so coincidental. Plus, many didn’t want L.Moon to do well, not to mention there was also Vincent.

Howard immediately understood Abigail’s implication as he also had a front-row seat of the Pearsons suppressing their business. “Alright, I’ll ask Mr. O’Neils for help with the investigation.”

News about Cameron’s situation quickly reached Sean’s ears. When he arrived at the hospital, he saw Abigail sitting outside the ward, engrossed in her conversation. So, he slowed his

steps.

Sean had inquired about the situation from the police station and also learned that the assailant was a super-male syndrome patient before making the trip here. So, Abigail couldn’t hold him accountable. In the end, Giada naturally had to bear the responsibility for intentionally causing harm. Regardless, this situation was nothing but a loss for Abigail and Cameron.

Abigail put away her phone the instant she sensed someone beside her.

“Why didn’t you change?” Sean looked at her blood-stained coat and asked.

Abigail lowered her head, finally realizing there was a patch of bloodstain on her clothes.

“I didn’t have the time. While Abigail said that, her tone sounded cold.

Since Sean knew she was in a bad mood due to Cameron’s accident, he sat beside her and

texted Alfie to come over.

“This incident is definitely not a random occurrence, so I’ve already ordered an investigation. Personally, I suspect it’s related to Vincent,” Sean said, leaning back in his chair and looking at Abigail’s side profile.

Abigail turned to look at him. “Why aren’t you asking about Cameron?”

Sean fell silent momentarily after hearing the reproach in her tone before replying, “How is Cameron?”

He trusted Cameron’s abilities, which was why he prioritized her.

“Cameron has been with you for so long, and I still have his blood on me, but you didn’t even bother to ask about him before saying all this. Do you have no feelings for your men?” Abigail had nothing to vent her frustration on. As a result, Sean became her target.

“That kid is about ten years old. Even if he has super-male syndrome… Cameron still lost an eye because he’s a kid. Don’t you care even a little about him?” Abigail questioned angrily.

When Sean heard that, he immediately frowned. “He lost an eye?”

Abigail’s eyes instantly reddened as she held her forehead, choking, “I don’t want to argue with you, but I feel horrible. What wrong have I done? Why does everyone around me have to suffer?”

Sean held her hand as he gently coaxed her, “You did nothing wrong. You’re too brilliant, which is why others envy you.”

“Sean, saying it like this won’t change anything. Cameron lost an eye… None of us expected such a young kid to be so ruthless. I just wanted to create my own brand and make quality clothes for consumers. What did I do wrong?” Abigail’s tears fell.

Luna resigned, and he was going to marry Kelly. The only one left by her side was Cameron, but even he got hurt.

Sean wanted to hold her but was afraid someone in the hospital might be watching him.

With L.Moon’s development going strong and her gaining popularity with her fashion sense, Sean didn’t want his actions to bring her any negative publicity because of his actions.

“Once you’re done venting, take some time to compose yourself. You can blame yourself for what happened to Cameron, but keep in mind that he’s a bodyguard. It’s his responsibility to be vigilant around you. He failed to do so, so don’t blame yourself.” Sean took a handkerchief from his pocket and handed it to her.

Just as Abigail was about to say he was ruthless, he continued, “Cameron had gone through

tough training before he started accompanying me. If he stayed with me, he would even have to be wary about a baby, let alone a child. Yet, he let his guard down while with you. Should you be blamed for that?”

“You’re so ruthless!” Abigail snarled angrily.

“I wouldn’t say this if Xavien got hurt while he was with you,” Sean explained.

Abigail pursed her lips, still thinking that Sean was too cruel.

“I’ll check on Cameron. Don’t blame yourself too much. His profession is to be a bodyguard, and it’s his job to risk his life to save you.” Sean stood up and turned to walk into the ward.

Although Sean’s words sounded merciless, Abigail didn’t feel as bad after he comforted her. So, she wiped her tears and followed him into the ward.
