The Spare Wife by Nadia Gordon

Chapter 424 Hard to Come By

Luna thought he was ridiculous. A decent guy? It seemed that Josh was quite confident about himself.

“I told you, it’s a no-go as long as your sister is Kelly Hagl. Nothing will change no matter what you say. Capiche?” she reiterated gravely. However, Josh did not want to give up just like that, for he thought he was an individual and should not be rejected just because the girls did not like Kelly.

She looked at his gentle appearance and thought he looked a bit pitiful. “Maybe you’ll find it unfair, but that’s how many things in this world are, she said, shrugged, and intended to leave. He watched her slowly walk away and let out a sigh.

Abigail looked over at Ronaldo after the Freshie production team had arranged the camera angles.

“To think our next interview would be in such a setting.” Ronaldo, sitting in a chair, commented with a smile.

She shrugged. “Well, me and my bad luck.”

He agreed with a chuckle and then asked, “Shall we begin?”

“Sure.” She nodded.

The staff members standing in a row beside them, at Ronaldo’s signal, started the interview, which mainly revolved around the costume details of the show “Troubled Times’ and the accuracy of the clothing reproduction.

After the interview, Ronaldo smiled and said, “Now, all there is to do is just wait for Troubled Times’ to air. I’ve already made arrangements with the actors. Once the show becomes a hit, we’ll invite them to the TV station. That way, we can gradually boost Freshie TV.”

Abigail nodded. “I told you before, your show focuses on historical costumes, so it’s essential to be thorough and meticulous, with some historical stories woven in if possible.”

“Sure, I’ll follow your advice,” he said with a big smile,

When Sean chtered, he saw the two engrossed in their conversation. He frowned slightly and asked, ‘Is it done?”

Ronaldo looked at him and maintained his cheerful expression. “Mr. Graham, it’s been a while.”

“Do we even need to meet?” Sean replied with a cold tone.

Abigail ignored Sean and told Ronaldo, “Just pretend he doesn’t exist.”

Sean heard Ronaldo’s suppressed laughter. At that, he looked indifferently at Ronaldo before glaring daggers at her. “Are we so close that your friend can disregard me?”

Having had the upper hand initially, she was taken aback by his comment. “We aren’t that close enough for you to meddle in my work,” she retorted with a cold expression.

Ronaldo found the two rather amusing. He chuckled and said, “Well, we’re almost done packing up. I’ll take my leave, and you can continue your argument.”

Abigail picked up her tablet and remarked, “As if I have the time to argue with him.”

After Ronaldo and his group left, Sean told her, “Can you please spare me some pride in front of outsiders?”

“Outsiders? Aren’t you an outsider, too?” she replied in surprise.

He suppressed his anger and said, “Are you hearing yourself?”

She could not be bothered to respond and focused on her drawing.

“The doctor said you can be discharged tomorrow He sat down and informed her.

“I know, the doctor told me,” she replied plainly.

“Josh is pursuing Luna, did you know?” he added.

“Luna tells me everything,” she replied with her head down. Her response implied that she did not need him to remind her about matters between her and her bestie.

“Compared to Howard, I have more faith in Josh,” commented Sean, speaking from a rational standpoint,

Abigail’s hands paused for a moment, and she remained silent for a while before responding, “It doesn’t matter who you have faith in. What matters is her choice.”

She was well aware of Sean’s intentions. From a perspective of character and family background, Josh was an excellent choice. He was upright, had a strong moral compass, and was considerate of others. Being in a relationship with him should be relatively easy. However, Abigail respected

Luna’s choice.

‘Don’t you want to advise her? Someone like Josh is hard to come by,” Sean said.

Abigail raised her gaze to look at him. “Since when did you have the leisure to meddle in Luna’s lifelong decisions?”

“She’s your friend, and she treats you well. That’s why I’m making this suggestion,” he replied indifferently.

“Luna prefers younger guys. She’s been running the studio for three years, handling all sorts of projects, and you know her personality. Josh isn’t the type of person she’d consider.”

Despite what she said, she was not exactly confident either. After all, who could predict love with certainty?

“How about a bet?” He suddenly proposed. “I bet they will become a thing.”

“Huh, who bets on their best friend’s love life?” She rolled her eyes.

“Are you too scared to bet?” Sean intentionally provoked her.

Abigail thought he was becoming increasingly childish around her, even taking up such baiting. She continued sketching with a serious expression. Your bait won’t work on me. I won’t bet on my bestie’s love life. I’ll bless her no matter who she chooses, even if it’s Josh, and

Kelly is a part of the picture. You, on the other hand, can you be any more childish?”

A chuckle escaped him as he said, “What if I say this is my true self?”
