I Want a Divorce by Abigail Quinn

Chapter 647 Ten More Minutes of Rest

However, they were greeted with the task of helping in the kitchen. Abigail could not help but think they

did not come here for medical treatment but rather to experience the countryside life.

After finishing their meal, she and Sean were exhausted. There were no convenient facilities for

washing up here, but fortunately, Ronaldo had made arrangements beforehand. There was solar power

and a makeshift bathroom, although they had to conserve water and fetch it after usage.

At 9:30 a.m., they lay together on the relatively spacious bed. Her arms felt like they were about to

break. “I’m starting to have second thoughts. Maybe I should just leave you here alone.”

“When disaster strikes, everyone flees for safety, right?” Sean looked at her.

Abigail had done a lot of work that day while he had not exerted much effort. His hands were blistered

and still quite painful.

“Let’s sleep… I’m tired.” She closed her eyes, thinking about the unknown things that awaited them

tomorrow, which worried her.

From dealing with L.Moon’s affairs until now, she had never gone to bed this early.

Sean looked at her profile, feeling content and at ease in his heart. It was so miraculous that even he

could not understand it. No matter how good his relationship with her was in Capitalis and Pendorf, it

had never been like today, giving him a completely new sense of peace.

He could not figure out why, but he felt that today was somehow different. Most likely, they were just too

tired. As such, he did not dwell on it for long before falling asleep.

The next day, around 5:30 a.m., they were awakened by Alice, living a life similar to military training.

They had to water Alice’s vegetables in the morning and weed the garden. The couple divided the

tasks, with her watering the vegetables and him pulling out the weeds… They were busy until 8:30

a.m., then returned on time for breakfast.

Walking on the morning road, Abigail swung her sore hand and felt the dampness of the morning dew

enveloping her, refreshing her whole body. However, she still found this rural life challenging. Although

she had done a lot of housework with Analise since she was young, it had never been this hard.

Meanwhile, Sean was already too tired to speak. As a young master, he had always lived a life of

luxury, and his grandfather had never made him do any heavy work. No matter how much work or

pressure he had in his job, it had never been as tough as it was now, planting a seed of thought in him

to escape back to Capitalis.

“I’m thinking of leaving you behind and letting you live here on your own.” When they were almost at

Alice’s house, Abigail suddenly voiced out.

Sean sighed. “I guess I’ll have to fly back, too, the day after you leave… I could hold on as long as you

were here, but without you, I can’t last a second.”

Those days would be unbearable.

“Although people should share hardships, I think this kind of difficulty is something you have to solve on

your own.” Abigail now regretted having a conscience and accompanying him through such hardship.

“You should still stay and take care of my emotional state. I feel exhausted… When weeding, I was

thinking maybe I should secretly buy a ticket and take you away with me…” His voice was low, and he

still had dirt on his fingers. He was feeling depressed.

“Forget it. Your life is more important,” she whispered.

Now, even if it was tough, they had to endure it. It was only two years after all.

He stopped talking. Indeed, Abigail wanted him to get better, so even if it was difficult now, they had to

tolerate it.

Back at Alice’s house, breakfast was already prepared. It was noodle soup cooked with beef bones.

After finishing their meal, the couple took off their jackets because it was too hot.

“You used up all the water while washing up last night. Today, you have to figure out how to store water

yourselves. During typhoon season, you can’t go out to fetch water. By then, you won’t even have

water to drink,” Alice told the two before leaving the house.

The couple was at a loss.

After she left, Abigail and Sean surveyed the village and discovered there was no running water, only

well water. They could not go out during typhoon season. While Alice could survive with a barrel of

water, it would not be enough for the three of them.

Back at the house, he lay on the recliner in the backyard, comfortably squinting his eyes. Abigail sat by

the stone table in the yard, using her tablet to search for ways to conveniently fetch water.

“I think we can dig a well in Alice’s backyard,” she suggested to him.

He opened his eyes and looked at her with a lazy gaze. “But we have to ask Alice’s permission. I just

thought about it. Why not consider installing a pipeline to connect the well water to her house?”

“Isn’t that too much? Drawing water from the well also requires electricity. Can we go to the well during

typhoon season to connect to a power source?” she asked him.



“This kind of project isn’t my expertise.” He smiled. He had invested in a resort and knew exactly how

to connect water sources.

She nodded. “Alright, you can discuss it with Alice, but we need to fetch water now. We ran out of water

yesterday and don’t have water left for cooking lunch.”

As soon as Sean heard that they had to work, his face immediately fell. “Wait a moment,” he said,

closing his eyes again and pretending to be dead.

Abigail stood up and walked over to his side, grabbing his hand, and pulling him up. “What if Alice

returns later and gets angry because, there’s no water? Hurry up!”

“Just ten more minutes of rest…” He lazily refused to get up from the chair.
