Abigail’s Second Life (Abigail and Sean)
Chapter 676 She Is Strange

Daniel couldn't help but cough.

The topic they were discussing was beyond his comprehension, and he felt like an outsider.

"Think carefully about the benefits you want from me, and let me know," Abigail said, looking at Daniel.

"No, I'm not taking advantage of the situation," Daniel said. "I just want to discuss what happened to you. Can't you stay out of it? Dealing with fraudsters is the job of the police. It's not something you should be doing."

"The police are also investigating, but I can't delay my friend's situation," Abigail explained to him.

Daniel sighed, "I'm just an ordinary businessman. I'm really concerned about our collaboration in this situation."

After all, he had partnered with Abigail for the sake of profit. If anything happened to Abigail, L.Moon, Fairy Meadow, and all the companies that collaborated with her would be affected.

"Don't worry, if something happens, I will handle it," Abigail reassured Daniel.

Over the past year and a half, she had also trained two capable assistants who could make independent decisions for many things in the company.

"You may have everything arranged, yet it's your enchanting designs that captivate the hearts of all in L. Moon and Fairy Meadow. We, the ones benefiting from your designs, get to enjoy the best things. Should an unfortunate event befall you, rendering you unable to continue crafting these masterpieces, we would be left bereft of the benefits your designs bring," Daniel said, taking a sip of coffee and continuing, "Miss Quinn, there are a thousand words I want to say, but you have to take care of yourself."

Abigail looked at him and nodded gently after a moment. "I will be careful."

"Don't worry, I don't have anything to do here. If she goes to Saraville, I'll just follow. It'll be fine if I don't show up," Simond shrugged indifferently.

At this point, Abigail had no choice but to cooperate with Simond.

She was filled with inner conflict. Would Sean be angry if he were to replace out?

After leaving the cafe, Abigail went straight back to the Pearson Residence by car.

Scarlett was making snacks at home and was somewhat surprised to see Abigail return, looking exhausted. "Oh, why did you come back so early?"

"Yeah, the matter is settled. Is Sean still here?" Abigail sat on the couch and absentmindedly turned on the TV.

"He's not here. He said he had something to do and left." Scarlett brought a small plate of cake and placed it in front of Abigail. "Try it. Let me know if it's delicious." Abigail took a bite and nodded. "Hmm, it's pretty good. The sweetness is just right. It's very tasty."

She had a particular fondness for the delicate combination of cream and white chocolate.

Scarlett smiled brightly. "As long as you like it."

Abigail messaged Sean while having dessert.

At that moment, Sean was at L.Moon.

When the general manager, Garrett, heard that Sean was looking for Abigail, he reminded him, "Miss Quinn didn't come to the office today. She told us that she won't be coming for a while." Sean, holding his coffee, couldn't help but ask, "Aren't you here to discuss business with someone?"

"We don't have any business at the moment. Why don't you give her a call?" Garrett didn't fully understand Sean and Abigail's relationship; after all, Sean returned just as Abigail went to Adral. "It's okay. Here, you can have some coffee," Sean handed Garrett the coffee.

"Thank you." Garrett accepted it immediately.

Sean sighed with a hint of melancholy as he left the L.Moon office building.

Ever since he returned to Capitalis, Abigail had been acting strangely.

He had been trying to convince himself. However, with these strange occurrences happening more frequently, Sean couldn't help but become concerned. What exactly is happening? Back in his car, Sean noticed the message Abigail had sent him and promptly replied.

"I'll be back soon. I didn't realize you were out discussing business, so I went to your office to bring you your favorite coffee."

"Yeah, I was out discussing business. But it didn't go well."

Abigail's response seemed intentional, as if she was trying to justify herself, afraid that he would inquire about her company's business.

Holding his phone, Sean remained silent for a moment before turning to Xavien beside him and saying, "Find out why Abigail went to Adral."

He couldn't bear not knowing anything anymore.

"Understood," Xavien replied, but a sense of unease began to creep into his heart. Why is there a sudden need to investigate Ms. Quinn? Could there be a rift in their relationship?

Sean let out a silent sigh as he confided in Xavien, "Lately, she's been acting more and more strangely. She met Simond in Adral. But if it was just a meeting, I wouldn't mind. I just feel like Simond treats her differently."

"The return of the Simpson Family from abroad is also quite peculiar. I couldn't replace any information about what they do overseas." Xavien's tone was filled with confusion. Normally, if they had offended a powerful entity, they would at least know how and why they had offended them. But there was no information about any of that.

"I also checked the Simpson Family's financial reports, and there were no issues. If their finances are fine, then what is preventing them from resisting the criminal forces?" Xavien continued.

Sean leaned back in his seat, his brow furrowed. "So, you're suggesting that he likely approached Abigail from the beginning."

Xavien was about to speak when Sean interrupted, "Did you investigate the website's transactions? Since money is involved, you better make sure to look into it quickly!"
