Chapter 296 The Child Rescued from the Water
Analise still didn’t say anything.
She had initially arrived at an accord with Molly, thinking that everything would be fine from now on. She believed
that the young lady from the Pearsons wouldn’t bother Abigail anymore and that it meant that Abigail would live
happily in Pendorf from now on.
Yet, Alfie getting stabbed publicly made her realize she had been a naive fool.
The Pearsons could easily act one way on the surface and do something completely different behind the scenes.
If Abigail lost her life today, what purpose did it serve to expose the secret she had been protecting for so long?
She had always hoped that Abigail would remain by her side, completely worry-free.
Sean, can you please not tell Abigail anything about this? I don’t want to lose her… She’s the one I watched grow
up, and her life has been filled with nothing but hardship. I don’t want her to suffer… Analise looked at Sean with
tearful eyes.
At this point, any doubts or suspicions he had been harboring were confirmed. How could he not understand what
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtshe was implying?
“Grandma, I understand.” He held her hand.
“Abigail doesn’t remember anything because I rescued her from drowning. Her brain was injured, causing her
memories to be in disarray. At the time, I thought that was more than fine. She won’t have to remember those
painful things. She has loved ones and her loving grandparents,” Analise spoke as she gripped Sean’s hand tightly.
She had even started crying silent tears toward the end. of her sentence.
“Yes. She is very fortunate to have you. You love her just as much as she loves you.” Sean patted Analise’s back.
The older one got, the more one feared losing what they had.
Sean understood her feelings very well. She had lost her lifelong partner, and now she only had Abigail. If Abigail
were to leave her… What else would she have left?
By the time Abigail returned, Sean and Analise had finished their conversation.
Analise’s had experienced one too many roller coasters today. So, she looked worn out as she leaned against the
chair.
“You two can go downstairs to the car and have your meal. I’ll keep an eye on things here,” Sean

said to Abigail, who was carrying their food.
Abigail nodded and handed him a takeout container. Then, she gently led the somewhat weary Analise away.
She could see that Analise was too tired to argue, which was why she listened to Sean. Otherwise, she would have
stayed here and waited for Alfie.
Cameron arrived shortly thereafter.
Sean hadn’t eaten and was sitting on a chair with a stern expression as he looked at the door to the emergency
room.
“Mr. Graham,” Cameron approached him and said quietly.
“This time, you need to find solid proof. You have to make sure of it no matter the cost!” Sean. looked at Cameron
with a dangerous look in his eyes.
If they didn’t investigate and expose the Pearsons for injuring someone at the train station in broad daylight and
make them pay the price, they would likely continue to pose a threat to Abigail due to Analise’s secret.
Originally, this kind of situation could have been avoided by taking Abigail to the Pearsons with an explanation in
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmhand and then doing a DNA test. Unfortunately, Analise didn’t want Abigail to return to the Pearsons, and Abigail
refused to believe she had any form of ties with the Pearsons.
The reason Abigail ended up being lost in the water and found by Analise might have been due to internal conflicts
within the Pearsons.
If that was truly the case, would Abigail be able to live a good life when she returned to the Pearsons’ side? That
was a hard no. Instead, she would be like a lamb entering the wolf’s dent waiting for slaughter if she did return. The
current situation in the Pearsons was such that only a wolf in sheep’s clothing would survive.
“Yes!” Cameron replied.
The surgery took four hours. Even so, the doctors barely managed to save Alfie’s life and made sure everyone
knew it. Sean was still worried about the recurrence of the incident. So, he arranged a private plane to send Abigail
and Analise back to Pendorf effective immediately.
Once Analise returned home, she took a bath, ate the takeout, and hit the hay.
Abigail’s thoughts were a complete mess. She couldn’t stop linking Analise’s trip to Capitalis with the Pearsons.
The reason why she figured that these two matters were related was mainly because the new young lady of the
Pearsons’ had been targeting her. That was the only explanation she could come up with that could possibly lead to
Analise’s sudden trip to Capitalis.
Just as she was trying to parse things out further, Luna came a-calling.
Abigail answered the call and leaned back in her chair while asking in a gentle tone, “What’s going
