The Spare Wife by Nadia Gordon

Chapter 421 So You Have a Plan Again

Before she could finish, Cameron grabbed her by the collar. “Watch your tongue. Slander Alana and you’ll be taken to court.”

The look in Cameron’s eyes shocked the woman. Her legs buckled and she almost fell to the ground. She quickly pulled up the man and tried to leave, but she was shivering.

Cameron turned around, and Sean came out of the hospital. The reporters were excited, but they didn’t have the courage to ask any questions. They were worried Sean might beat them up.

Sean looked at the cameras coldly. “Alana would never marry anyone else because I’m the only one she has ever been with. You know what to write.”

The reporters nodded. None dared to argue. Once Sean and Cameron were gone, the reporters flew into a frenzy.

“So, Alana and Sean are going out?”

“I don’t think so. He said he was the only one she had ever been with. Maybe it’s a secret marriage.”

“I think you’re right. That would explain why he would show up anywhere Alana goes. It seems he’s been protecting his wife.”

“Big scoop.”

Sean calmed down slowly after he went back to Abigail’s ward. Only now, he had time to see how Abigail was doing.

“You beat someone up when there were people live-streaming!” Abigail disagreed with his actions.

Sean sat beside the bed and raised her chin. “Did that man touch you?”

Abigail frowned. “What do you mean?”

“I mean, if he did, I’d have cut his mouth off. Just thinking about it enraged Sean. He couldn’t accept it if Abigail would be with another guy. He almost exploded with rage when he saw the video. The only thought he had was to kill the man who touched Abigail.

“No, and I could have-”

Sean interrupted impatiently. “I know you could’ve solved it, but I saw what happened, and I was mad Abigail. I don’t care how you refuse me, but I won’t let you date any other guy. You’re never marrying anyone else unless I’m six feet under.”

Abigail was angry and annoyed. A while later, she said, “Who I date is none of your business.”

“Try me,” Sean growled.

Abigail thought she was already mad enough after what Sean did to her, but when she saw the tweet Luna sent her, she got angrier. She and Sean were already divorced, but the media said they were secretly married. What the hell did he tell the reporters? “What did you tell the reporters, Sean? Clear this up this instant!” Abigail tossed the phone away after she saw the tweet.

Sean was playing with his phone. Without looking up, he said, “Clear what up?”

“Don’t play dumb!” Abigail was more than annoyed.

“How should I know what to clear up if you’re not telling me?” Sean countered calmly.

“The reporters say we’re secretly married. The whole internet says we’re married. They wouldn’t have found out if you hadn’t told them!” Abigail snapped.

Sean was playing his game. He seemed like he had heard Abigail, but then he also seemed like he didn’t hear her.

“I’m talking to you, Sean Graham!” Abigail raised her voice.

“I heard you. I’m trying to remember what I told them yesterday. I’m sure I never told them we were married. How am I supposed to know what they think about my statement?” Sean commented coolly.

Abigail almost stomped her foot in fury. “If you hadn’t given them hints, they wouldn’t have come up with this. They’re always careful about your news. They would never write anything stupid. without your permission.”

“These are the capital’s reporters, not Pendorf’s. How am I supposed to know they would come up with these stories?” Sean put on a look of innocence.

Abigail gritted her teeth and glared at Sean. “Keep playing dumb.”

Sean seemed to have finished his game, and he looked at Abigail. “Want to have a go? That developer developed this when you were coming up with designs. The public test server was released yesterday.”

Abigail was deadpan as she muttered, “Do I look like I have time?” She was so busy she had to attend the interview in the hospital the next day. Abigail thought she was unlucky. She just had to run into things like this.

“The clothes you designed are pretty. Play the game, and I’ll buy them,” Sean said childishly

“I don’t have time Abigail had to squeeze time out just for her designs. She had no time for

games.

Sean sighed as if he was regretful.

“How much time do you have, anyway? Don’t you have work to do?” Abigail asked with scorn.

“I get Cameron to help me out when I’m not playing,” Sean said matter-of-factly.

Abigail couldn’t understand the point of him playing this game. She leaned on her bed and stayed silent.

“I told Cameron to look into it. Someone asked those people to do this. I think Martha’s involved,” Sean mentioned as he continued playing his game.

Abigail grunted.

“They’re tough nuts to crack, so we need some time,” he added.

“The moment you beat that guy up during the livestream, you can’t keep this up anymore. You’ll be the prime suspect if anything happens to the guy.” Abigail looked at him.

Sean fell silent for a while. He blurted, “I couldn’t have gotten them to slip up if I didn’t do that. If we let this chance pass us by, it’d be a shame.”

“So, you know what happened to me earlier was someone else’s plan before you beat the guy up?” Abigail was surprised.
