Chapter 303 Old News
Sean noticed that Abigail was hesitant to speak, so he couldn’t help but say, “Just say whatever you want to say. I’ll
listen.
His words made her heart skip a beat. Still, she steadied herself and replied, “Grandma received a call from the
Pearsons in Capitalis. They want you to stop.”
She briefly relayed her grandmother’s words to him, only to hear him coldly sneer. “Ha, they can’t deal with me, so
they’re resorting to threatening an elderly now? Tell Grandma there’s nothing to worry about. Since I’ve decided to
execute my plans, I won’t stop.”
She knew it would be hard to persuade him, especially after hearing the tone he had adopted. Although he claimed
that he would listen to her, she wasn’t sure how much of it was true. However, she wouldn’t be presumptuous and
actually take his words to heart.
“Sean, Grandma isn’t one to back down from a fight. When she was in Quinn Village, she never backed down unless
she was truly at a disadvantage! She couldn’t help but remind him.

Abigail knew right then that he wouldn’t stop. She couldn’t help but sigh as she listened to the monotonous dial
tone.
After she packed her things, she immediately returned home.
Meanwhile, Analise was sitting in the living room absent-mindedly. When she saw Abigail return, she immediately
stood up and asked anxiously, “What did Sean say?”
“He doesn’t want to stop, Abigail replied with a frown.
“It’s all
my fault.” Analise sat down and lowered her head, feeling guilty.
Abigail walked over to her and held her hand, asking, “Grandma, what did the Pearsons say to you to make you so
afraid?”
Analise raised her eyes. Even though her gaze was cloudy, there was no hiding the deep concern within them. “Do
you know what happened between Sean and the Palmers?”
“Is it the matter between him and Kingston? I only know some of it.” Sean mentioned that Kingston did him a favor.
Yet, the exact nature of that favor was something she still didn’t know,
“The Pearsons said that Sean was involved in a murder case, and they have evidence. If he continues to go after
them, they will bring this matter to the media and the police,” Analise said, tightly gripping Abigail’s hand.

“Besides, his quarrel with the Pearsons is all because of us. Let’s not fight anymore, Abigail. The Pearsons said that
as long as Sean stops, the previous matters will be forgiven. We can live peacefully in Pendorf while they remain in
Capitalis. We won’t interfere with each other from now on,” Analise continued as she looked at Abigail with great
earnestness in her
Nonetheless, Abigail didn’t believe what the Pearsons had said.
eyes.
First, the Pearsons’ methods were so ruthless that if they really had concrete evidence, they would definitely go to
great lengths to push Sean into a corner. They certainly wouldn’t contact Analise. The possibility that she could
think of was that the Pearsons were trying to deceive her grandmother.
The connection between Sean and the Palmers was true. Regardless, the claim that Sean was involved in a murder

“Grandma, why didn’t you call Sean and talk to him?” Abigail asked.
Her words made Analise’s face flash with a hint of awkwardness. “I was so harsh to him before. How could I even
dream about saying anything now that our relationship is so strained?”
Abigail sighed. “I will talk to him. Still, have you considered his persistence in going against the Pearsons?” Even she
could figure out that the Pearsons’ story had flaws. So, there was no way Sean couldn’t think of the same thing.
Those claims wouldn’t frighten him at all.
“You need to make Sean stop, Abigail,” Analise said.
Abigail replied with a hint of resignation in her tone. “I’ve already divorced him. I can’t control him.”
Analise furrowed her brows upon hearing her response and didn’t say anything more.
“Oh, well. I’ll try to talk to him, okay? You need to stop worrying about these things, Grandma. The Pearsons are a
crafty lot. As long as you don’t answer their calls, you won’t have to suffer troubles.” Abigail patted her hand.
Yet, Analise pushed her hand away and headed off to the kitchen. “If I don’t answer their calls, will these things not
happen? I just don’t want to owe Sean too much.”
Alas, their ledger was so long that there was really no point. So, it was meaningless for them to discuss these
matters now.
