Chapter 6
Sean felt agitated as he glanced at the divorce settlement and the several
cards in his hand. I simply thought she was just throwing a tantrum. How dare
she think of divorcing me!“Are you being serious right now?” He held back his anger and managed toask through his teeth.Abigail quirked a brow at him and replied nonchalantly, “I am dead serious.Sign it, and we will go through the procedures when both of us are free later.Sean looked at his wife before his eyes relentlessly as he thought, We havebeen married for three years, and Abigail has been fulfilling her duty as Mrs.Graham. She’s well–behaved, obedient, and kind to my family members.More so, she pleases me in every possible way. Yet, she’s like a differentperson now.As he regarded her fair and lustrous face painted with impatience that wascompletely different from before and listened to the icy cold words that12:09 Sun, 24 Sept 60Chapter 6 Let’s Go Through the Procedures2/6escaped her lips, he felt a knife stabbing through his heart as he realized thatAbigail was truly looking forward to leaving him. So, he quickly retracted hisgaze, turned around, and walked into the living room. “There’s no need forthat. I will see you at the City Hall front entrance tomorrow at 9.00AM.” Hisindifferent voice sounded.At first, Abigail thought that she was all prepared for this day. It was only atthis moment that she truly realized that her heart was still in pain like it wasgetting pricked with thousands of needles. Half of her body went numb. Infact, she didn’t even know how she managed to walk out of the house.She returned to the studio in a daze and lay on the bed, only to realize thather stomach was churning in pain after a while.So, she hastily covered her mouth and rushed into the bathroom beforevomiting everything she ate and drank earlier that evening. Still, the pain inher stomach worsened instead of being relieved.To make matters worse, whenever she suffered from digestive troubles, shewould feel nothing but excruciating pain. Since she hadn’t had a relapse for aChapter 6 Let’s Go Through the Procedures3/6long time, she had completely forgotten about the agony she would have toendure. Therefore, she didn’t even bother taking her stomach medicine withher when she moved out. At this moment, the journey from her bathroom toher bedside could result in her back drenching in a cold sweat. Still, shegritted her teeth and endured the pain as she grabbed her phone to callLuna.To her dismay, Luna didn’t hear her phone ringing at all as she was sleepinglike a log.As she feared she would die of pain in the studio tonight, she eventuallycalled Sean after a great deal of hesitation. However, no one picked up
during the first call. Thus, she called again. This time, it was answered afterthe second ring, and a soft, waxy voice sounded from the other end of thephone. As soon as Abigail heard the voice, she could tell it was Joan. “Hello?Who is it?”He was still alone when I left the apartment just now. Yet, he’s already withJoan within seconds! Damn it! I was out of my mind to think of asking SeanSun, 24 SeptChapter 6 Let’s Go Through the Proceduresfor help! Thus, Abigail swiftly silenced herself instead of answering.61%When Joan heard no response on the other end, she tentatively asked, “Is ityou, Abigail? Are you looking for Sean?”As she had no intention of hearing Joan say something nonsense like Seanwas taking a shower, she promptly hung up the phone. Then, she curled upon the carpet, frowned, and blocked all of Sean’s contact.Then, she suddenly lost her vision and passed out once she placed herphone away.“Abigail?”Luna woke Abigail up early the next morning.4/6As Luna was still wearing her pajamas, she obviously rushed here before shehad time to change. Then, she said guiltily, “Was it your digestive troubles? It’s12:09 Sun, 24 Sept O Chapter 6 Let’s Go Through the Proceduresall my fault. I slept like a log last night and didn’t hear your call!”ས ཏྲཱི 61%#However, Abigail couldn’t be bothered about that right now. Instead, shejerked up and demanded, “What time is it?”“It’s 9.00AM.”At once, Abigail’s mind buzzed. Sh*t! I’m late!“Sean and I have agreed to meet at the City Hall and go through the divorcesettlement procedures at 9.00AM today.”Abigail grabbed the phone that had fallen on the carpet and hastily calledhim as she knew that Sean despised people being late.5/6The phone rang once before it got automatically hung up. Did Sean block mycontact as well?In the same amount of timidness as her speed in blocking Sean last night,Abigail unblocked him and made a voice call.SUIT, 24 SepiChapter 6 Let’s Go Through the Procedures6/6Once the call got through, she probed courteously and distantly, “Are you stillat the City Hall? I’m going over now.”Sean’s brisk voice sounded through the receiver. “Are you saying I have towait for you at the City Hall front entrance for half an hour?”Abigail didn’t bother explaining herself since she was in the wrong. Thus, shegot up and changed her clothes while apologizing on the phone, “I am sosorry. I’ll try to hurry up. 20 minutes? Is it okay?”Sean’s voice tinged with a chilling sense of anger. “Do you think my time is as
worthless as you?”
