Chapter 103 Nothing To Feel Aggrieved
Kevin went into Abigail’s room and closed the door. He looked at Abigail, and for once, there was solemnity in his eyes. “Abigail,” he said softly. “Are you still mad?”
Abigail didn’t look too good. She looked listless, and there was something heavy behind her eyes.
“No.” Abigail was never angry. She was just disappointed.
Kevin helped her make her way to the couch, and he sat her down. Gently, he said, “I’ve talked to Sean. He’s going to let Damian and Victor off the hook, but he’s mad because you argued with him for Victor.”
“I didn’t even get mad after everything he did for Joan. What makes him think he has the right to get mad at me?” Abigail thought that was hilarious.
Kevin picked up a bottle of water under the table and handed it to Abigail. “He’s angry because he’s jealous. He thinks you’ve gone too far fighting him just for the model.”
Abigail didn’t take the bottle of water. Awkward, Kevin placed the bottle of water on the coffee table. He said, “You’re still married on the surface. If someone finds out in the future, they’re going to write a ton of stories about it. He’s probably mad that you argued with him for a model because of that reason.”
Abigail looked at him. “Just tell me what you want me to do, Mr. Stewart.” She didn’t want anyone else to talk about her marriage. The fact that Sean was using the production team so blatantly to
push Joan to fame meant that their marriage was over. Bringing that up was just mockery. For
Joan’s future, Sean had pushed Abigail into a corner. Abigail had lost all hope for this marriage.
Kevin wasn’t in a hurry to say anything. He gently said, “If you won’t tell him anything, how is he
supposed to know? Take this time, for example. He’s really jealous-”
Abigail wasn’t interested in his nagging. She cut him off coldly, “Just tell me what you want me to
do.”
Kevin nodded. “It’s a day off again tomorrow. Just show some love to him, and everything will be fine. He’s a guy. He won’t be so petty. Just show some love to him, and he’ll let things slide.”
Abigail mused over the matter and nodded.
“Get some rest, Abigail. Don’t take this to heart. It’s really hard to find the truth, and Victor did a lot

Kevin nodded. “It’s a day off again tomorrow. Just show some love to him, and everything will be fine. He’s a guy. He won’t be so petty. Just show some love to him, and he’ll let things slide.”
Abigail mused over the matter and nodded.
“Get some rest, Abigail. Don’t take this to heart. It’s really hard to find the truth, and Victor did a lot
of st* pid s-”
“Thank you, Mr. Stewart,” interrupted Abigail calmly.
Kevin thought Abigail was calmly telling him to shut up because she didn’t want to listen to him.
anymore, so he went back to report to Sean.
Sean looked icy. He grunted and didn’t object to the arrangement.
Abigail sat in her room for a while. She got up and was about to talk to Luna about it, but the moment she left her room, she saw Sean coming out as well. Their eyes met, but Abigail looked away immediately and went to Luna’s place.
Sean looked at Abigail. He pursed his lips and went back into his room, and then he closed the door. Abigail heard the closing door, and she turned around before she heaved a sigh.
Luna opened her door, and Abigail went inside. “Kevin talked to me. The case with Victor is water under the bridge. We’ll keep going on.”
“Water under the bridge? You made Sean relent?” Luna looked shocked.
Abigail shook her head. “Kevin’s the mediator. He wants me to show some love to Sean in front of
the camera tomorrow.”
Luna looked at her absurdly calm friend, and she held her hand. Quietly, she said, “If you think this is unfair, we’ll leave. Not like we can win even if Victor stays.”
“That’s not it,” said Abigail calmly. She wanted this show to be fair. She didn’t want Joan to have free rein and bully anyone without a backer.
“This is humiliating,” said Luna softly.
Abigail went to the workstation. “We’ll have to be careful later. We can’t let something like this happen again. I just want to hang on until the results are announced.”
