Chapter 428 Kelly’s Identity

“Are you really planning to date Howard?” Abigail could not help but think of what Sean had said. She still could not understand how Josh ended up liking Luna.

“Of course. We’re still in the ambiguous stage. Speaking of which, I’ll be meeting him for dinner later. Is there anything you’d like to eat? I’ll bring it back for you.” Luna said with excitement.

Women sure behaved differently when they were in love. Even their words carried a certain playful tone.

“Grandma is going to cook for me. You enjoy your meal. Don’t worry about me.” The design drawings were all Abigail could think about right now.

The ladies chatted on and off, and as the end of the workday approached, the assistant informed her that Josh had arrived.

Luna immediately said, “We won’t see him. Tell him to leave!”

How audacious of Josh to show up after Kelly instigated Lina to cause trouble for Abigail!

The assistant looked at Abigail, and the latter gazed calmly at her. “Don’t you understand what Miss Smith said:”

“Alright.” The assistant quickly turned and called the front desk to inform them.

Luna clicked her tongue. “Speaking of which, can’t we find any evidence against Kelly this time? As long as we prove that she intentionally incited Old Mrs. Graham, the Pearson Family’s impression of her should take a hit.

“She’s quite confident in front of Sean, so it might be challenging to find any evidence against her,” Abigail replied plainly.

“This woman is cautious, but no matter what, he that toucheth pitch shall be defiled, Luna said, not believing that Kelly could be flawless every time without leaving any clues.

Abigail’s pencil paused for a moment, then she continued, “Say, who do you think Kelly really is? Assuming her identity is the issue, it should be relatively easy to uncover, even if Vincent is covering it up behind the scenes. But, strangely, even Ronaldo can’t find any clues.

Kelly seemed unusually clever. If she was just an ordinary girl who got lost, she should not be this crafty.

“Now that you mention it, she does look suspicious. Even if ordinary girls play mind games, she shouldn’t be this good at it, right? If you’ve noticed something’s off about her identity, wouldn’t Sean have noticed too? If he’s also investigating and hasn’t found anything, then Kelly is truly intriguing. Luna furrowed her brows, expressing disbelief.

“It’s indeed puzzling, so maybe we’re a bit too inexperienced in dealing with her,” Abigail concluded with a gentle sigh.

Luna was just about to speak when the office door was pushed open Josh stood in the doorway, looking at the two without saying a word

“What is the meaning of this? Lua unaediately stood up.

“Let’s talk” Josh walked into the room

The assistant quickly closed the door.

Abigail set down her pencil and looked at him.

“What is there to talk about with you?” Luna said, checking her phone for the time. There were five minutes left until the end of the workday, and this dude seemed to have a knack for timing.

“Luna, my sister is my sister, and I am me. Don’t mix us up,” he said with a stern expression.

She quirked a brow and said with a smile, “You’re right Given that your sister has been missing for years, it’s normal that she’d end up rotten.”

Her words had ignited a fire in Josh. His sister’s disappearance had been a sorrow that the Pearson Family had never spoken about, yet now, Luna was using such words to taunt him….

“She didn’t choose to be raised that way. Besides, today’s incident hasn’t been concluded. You can’t speak about her like that,” he reasoned, holding back his anger.

She sneered in response. “You may have a filter for your sister, but I certainly don’t. If you’ve come here to defend her, you can leave now. Don’t make us clock out late.”

“If Kelly and us get along, there’s no reason for anyone to speak so harshly. But now the fact is that she would appear everywhere I’m at, yet you claim that I provoked her. That’s not fair, is it?” said Abigail indifferently as she looked at Josh.

He could not argue with this statement.

“In Pendorf, she insisted on coming to apologize to me, but Old Mr. Graham ended up being the victim, and my grandmother was blamed as the perpetrator. This time, I came to Capitalis, and Old Mrs. Graham inexplicably showed up in my ward, causing a scene. Coincidentally, your mother and she also happened. to be there,” Abigail continued to explain to Josh.

Luna, with a mocking look in her eyes, asked him, “Have you ever thought about how my best friend ends up in trouble wherever your sister is?”

“She even insists on taking care of me in the hospital. Are we even close? My biggest wish is for you all to stay the hell away from me,” Abigail said, lowering her gaze to continue working on her design.

“I’m off work now. Come out with me, and don’t disturb her,” Luna said as she walked toward the door.

Josh looked at Abigail and said, “I’m very sorry about what happened at the hospital today. I’ll investigate and give you an explanation.”

She glanced at him and replied, “Then, I wish you good luck. I hope you can find results that satisfy me.”

While it seemed unlikely, having another person involved in this matter increased the chances of uncovering Kelly’s true identity.
