Chapter 157 Abigail’s Missing?

Kevin was feeling a headache from being hung up on the phone call.

He personally made the phone call, but the phone was switched off. He also contacted Anthony about

this, who said that he was unaware of the situation.

No one could contact Abigail at this point.

“Don’t tell me something’s happened to her,” Kevin asked Luna, who was by his side.

“I’ll call the police!” Luna shot up.

“Yeah. We should call the police,” he agreed.

It would be too late to call the nolice later when something had happened to her. However, the police

couldn’t dispatch any .mmediately since Abigail’s phone battery died out.

Kevin knew that Sean wasn’t in a good mood, but he still called him.

“What is it? I told you. I don’t know where Abigail is. Her whereabouts have nothing to do with me.”

Sean was irritated.

“She’s missing. Do you know when she was last seen? Luna has reported this to the police,” Kevin told

him seriously.

Sean frowned and said, “I last spoke to her three days ago. After our argument, she probably left the

Graham Estate. Let me call to check.”

They could still check the security cameras if she went missing when she left the estate.

After hanging up the phone, Sean’s breathing got labored. He couldn’t leave Joan’s side now. If he did,

Abigail could be in greater danger.

Then, he called the number of the Graham Estate, and Cornelie answered instantly.

“Grandma, did Abigail leave the estate yet?” Sean suppressed the panic in his heart and tried to sound

calm.

“Probably not. I don’t know. I haven’t gone downstairs in three days. I don’t know what she does in her

room, but we do send food to her room for every meal. What’s wrong?” Cornelie asked with a

smile.

Sean let out a breath of relief before his blood started to boil. “Can you pass the phone to her?”

“She probably won’t accept the phone. She doesn’t even open the door sometimes when we send her

food. I’m not entertaining that bad attitude of hers,” Cornelie complained to him.

“Are you lying to me, Grandma?” Sean’s tone went cold. Abigail regarded work more important than

anything else, so she wouldn’t lock herself in the room.

“Why would I lie to you? I’m your grandma!” Cornelie got agitated.

“Let her out now and return her phone to her. I’m busy, so I can’t come back now, Grandma. Don’t do

these sorts of things,” Sean ordered sternly.

“I will. If you won’t come back and sign the divorce settlement with her, she’s not leaving. I won’t budge

even if you tell your grandpa unless you make me jump from the second floor!” Cornelie exclaimed

before hanging up the phone.

Sean grabbed his phone with rage and roughly pulled his tie off.

“Mr. Graham, I can stay here while you settle Mrs. Graham’s situation.” Cameron walked up and

uttered gently.

Sean’s eyes were lowered as they flickered around. At last, he glanced at Joan, who had an oxygen

mask on, before leaving with his phone in hand.

After he got in the car, he called a number. Soon, the other side picked up. “I need to return home to

settle some things. I’m just letting you know that my assistant is taking care of Joan in my stead. I

promise to return to the hospital in three hours,” Sean informed in a deep voice.

“Sean, is she more important after all?” The voice from the other end of the phone was cold.

“She’s my wife. Of course, she’s important,” Sean answered without hesitation.

However, the man snickered. “She was in Joan’s way. You failed Joan and caused her to end up like

this. You promised Joan riches, but what happened? You left her at the set for Abigail.”

That was her own doing! What? Are you trying to guilt trip me?” Sean’s voice was even colder than

The other person was silent for a while before answering begrudgingly, “I’ll only give you three

hours.”

Then, Sean hung up the phone.

Abigail lay in the dimly lit room as her whole body ached. She flipped her body down from the bed

when she couldn’t sleep anymore. She felt weak, especially her legs, which lacked energy.

Then, she crawled to the toilet and opened the faucet to spray cold water over herself. Only then did

she feel more awake. She knocked her head against the wall to regain control over her body from the

pain. After that, she stood up with the wall as her support but fell beside the sink when she walked

toward it.

Her stomach hurt so much that she was seeing stars since she could feel her body now. She turned the

tap on and drank the water, hoping to dilute the medicine in her body through urination.

When Sean returned to the Graham Estate, Colby had also returned as he received the phone call.

It had been three days, yet he didn’t realize that Abigail hadn’t left.

Cornelie sat in the living room with the divorce settlement on the coffee table. She looked at Sean with

her chin tilted up. “Sign the divorce settlement now to divorce Abigail, or don’t even think about finding

out where she is.”

“Grandma, must you force me to cut you out of my life?” Sean asked her in return.

“Abigail made me do this. If I don’t teach her a lesson, she probably thinks I’m a free nanny!” She was

still upset over Abigail’s words.

“Abigail did hurt you by saying that, but you almost killed her and didn’t even apologize. Why must you

make her submit to you?” Colby questioned with a dark expression. He couldn’t understand

Cornelie at all.

“I didn’t agree to this marriage from the start, but you forced Sean to marry her because of that old h*g

from the Quinns! It’s been three years, but not a single child was born. If she gave birth to one, there

wouldn’t be any problems!” Cornelie shouted.
