Chapter 350 I’m Not a Ruthless Person
Abigail nodded but remained silent. She couldn’t help but feel a sense of regret for not recording Kelly’s reaction
the last time she called her. However, she knew that even if she had recorded it, it might not have made a
difference, as Kelly could always claim that someone else had impersonated her. After all, Abigail didn’t even know
whose phone number Kelly had used.
“Of course, it’s your prerogative to like or dislike someone. Still, I was hoping you could put on an act to put Kelly at
ease, even just for once.” Josh looked at her hopefully. “As long as she knows you don’t hate her, she’ll leave.”
After hearing that, Abigail’s mind was filled with doubts about whether he truly comprehended. Kelly’s nature. She
knew that acquiescing to his request would inevitably plunge her into a web of complications. She questioned the
wisdom of playing the saint in this situation. It was evident to her that Josh was placing her in a very uncomfortable
predicament, all for the sake of Kelly. He was ready to make a rather impolite request of her. She inquired with a

happiness, isn’t it?”
He knew how selfish and disgusting he was and made a conscious decision to approach her and talk about this.
However, he couldn’t bear the thought of Kelly having to humiliate herself before Sean’s relatives just to gain
Abigail’s forgiveness. With a pained expression, he confessed, “I know I’m being selfish, Abigail. But I hope you can
do me this favor.”
Abigail stared at him for a long moment, her silent contemplation reflecting the transformation she had observed in
Josh. A person who had been consistently considerate had now seemingly transformed into someone she despised
due to Kelly’s web of deceit.
She couldn’t help but sigh as she considered the apparent lack of principles in some men. Men often treated
women they perceived as vulnerable like fragile porcelain dolls, going to great lengths to ensure their happiness
rather than standing firm in their principles to help these women grow stronger. As these thoughts swirled in her
mind, she couldn’t suppress a rueful chuckle.
“I find it disheartening to witness how you’ve changed. I have no insight into Kelly’s past, and I don’t see a reason to
extend sympathy to her. Furthermore, she currently enjoys a privileged situation where she doesn’t need to cater
to anyone. If you were a good brother, you would have reprimanded her instead of indulging her, which only
encourages her self-degradation.” Abigail rose from her seat, her disappointment palpable as she gazed at Josh.
“You’re all the same, and I find it mundane. Individuals who lack boundaries are truly repulsive.”
After hearing that, he raised his head and locked eyes with her, his heart pierced by her cutting
words.
“I hope you won’t come looking for me again,” she stated firmly. “Even if Sean came to speak on her behalf, it
would be useless. Besides, he would never do something so foolish. Instead of feeling sorry for her past, why don’t
you feel sorry for yourself?” She saw Josh as a clown being

Josh remained seated at the restaurant table, his mind filled with self-doubt. Did I make a mistake? Should I not
have allowed Kelly to act this way?
Meanwhile, Abigail, still caught up in her troubled thoughts, didn’t immediately head for her car when she left the
restaurant. She walked aimlessly along the road, with Cameron silently following her, sensing her distress.
Indeed, her mood was at its lowest point. She wasn’t a block of wood that had no feelings; in fact, she was
disappointed in Josh and Eric because of how they had been good to her in the past. It felt as though they were
following in Anthony’s footsteps, treating her like a disposable tool as soon as someone more significant entered
their lives. It was as though they hadn’t anticipated that their actions would hurt her, much like the way Sean used
to treat her..
As Cameron trailed Abigail for some time, he couldn’t help but notice that Josh had caught up to them.
With a sense of urgency, Josh swiftly approached her and gently but firmly grasped her wrist from behind. “I’m
sorry, Abigail,” he began, his eyes locking onto hers. A heavy shroud of shame draped over his face, concealing his
features.
