The Spare Wife by Nadia Gordon

Chapter 497 I’ll Listen to You Again

Abigail suppressed the turmoil in her heart and decided to discuss things further after returning from the hospital.

So, she immediately looked for a doctor to examine Cameron’s eyes the minute she got there. After that, she asked the doctor, “How are his eyes?”

The doctor was also nervous as he responded, “His eyes have made quite the recovery, and there are no issues. Why do you ask?” The sudden re-examination left the doctor puzzled, making him wonder if something had gone wrong with the patient.

She replied politely, “It’s nothing. Thank you, doctor.”

Once the doctor left, she looked at Cameron sternly.

Cameron quirked his lips into a playful smile as he said, “Why are you being so serious?”

Abigail gave him a light punch on the shoulder in response. “Let me tell you: if you keep being so carefree, I’d really keep my distance from you.”

Cameron’s smile gradually disappeared as he explained, “This situation is quite complex.”

“Then, make it simple for me.” She urged him to be concise.

He continued, “I know that you are doubtful and feel that something’s off about today. Your intuition is accurate, but you have to suppress your doubts and focus on L.Moon. Everything is under Mr. Graham’s control.”

The more they tried to conceal the truth, the more she wanted to dig deeper. So, she demanded, “So, why the hell is he keeping a close watch on Luna? Does it have something to do with what you’ve been saying?”

“Well…” Cameron elaborated, “Mr. Graham believes that Kelly strongly desires revenge. He’s worried that she might send someone to harass Miss Smith while she is alone in Pendorf. That’s why he’s keeping an eye on Miss Smith. There have also been some questions about Kelly’s identity… So, Mr. Graham is looking into it. He fears Luna might disrupt his plans, so he asked me to advise you to stay calm.”

Abigail reluctantly accepted this explanation and answered, “Maybe it’s for the best if I don’t contact Luna. It’d be better to let Sean handle everything since he’s been keeping an eye on Kelly for so long.”

Cameron continued to advise her by saying, “It’s safer that way. Mr. Graham is well-informed.

and has been watching Kelly closely.”

She nodded. “Alright, I’ll listen to you this time.”

She realized that she hadn’t noticed anything unusual about Luna lately, and it was only when Sean mentioned it that she started to see some truth in his concerns. Why did Luna. suddenly want the app last night when she refused it the first time?

As such, she decided to wait for Sean’s investigation results before taking the next step…

Abigail returned to the company and sighed. Even though she was worried about Luna, she managed to suppress her anxiety for the time being.

Sean had successfully convinced Cameron to persuade Abigail. Hence, he figured that Cameron still possessed some value.

Meanwhile, he was still unsure of the situation surrounding Luna. While Xavien had already tried to establish contact with her neighbors, it was quite challenging to approach them. without arousing her suspicions. So, he refocused his thoughts and texted Damon.

‘What has Josh been up to lately?’

Initially, Sean thought that Josh would have settled things with his parents since it had been so many days since Luna’s return. It was also time for him to meet her, but there was still no sign of Josh after waiting for two days.

Soon, Damon’s reply interrupted Sean’s thoughts. ‘He’s been shopping and having meals with Kelly lately!’

Sean did not return Damon’s text and assumed that Kelly might be using the excuse of needing to make amends with Josh to prevent him from visiting Luna. This meant that Luna was dealing with something that she couldn’t let Josh know about.

He immediately called Xavien.

“Mr. Graham,” Xavien greeted him as soon as he answered the call.

“There’s definitely something happening on Luna’s side. Find someone to go undercover as a maintenance worker and head to her building. Inform them that there has been a water leak in her apartment, and they need to inspect it.”

After he was done instructing Xavien, he hung up and continued to message Damon. Any developments over at Vincent’s side recently?”

“They seem to be investigating something. It seems they have secretly sent people to the

pharmacy that Luna visited recently. They also had a word with her cab driver afterward

Sean was now absolutely certain that Luna would have already sent samples of Kelly’s hair, skin, and blood for testing. Alas, he was uncertain who she sent it to, considering that even Vincent had not managed to discover this yet.

It felt that Luna had planned this for the longest time since any last-minute decisions would have alerted Vincent.

“Alright, I understand,” Sean replied. “Keep a close watch.”

If Luna was in trouble now, it had to be related to the results of Kelly’s paternity test, as even he was unsure as to when the results would be exposed. So, they could only take action. without alerting Vincent. The test results could not be exposed in the near future since such a move might risk alerting their opponents.

In the afternoon, Xavien hurriedly returned to make his report, saying, “Luna’s not in the apartment that she used to live in. I don’t know when she was moved.”

“You don’t know?!” Sean stared at him coldly. “Didn’t I instruct you to keep an eye on her day and night? Yet, you’re giving me such a response?”

Xavien lowered his head in shame as beads of sweat formed on his forehead.

“What are you still standing there for? Go and investigate the matter! Take care to be careful not to alert anyone! Everything rests on Luna now, whether it’s for Abigail or the bigger picture. She needs to remain unharmed. Understood?” Sean sternly gave out his order.

“Yes!” Xavien replied quickly before he hastily left.

After that, Sean’s expression darkened. Kelly and her people were rather capable since they managed to move Luna away right under his nose. Josh truly had a flawed judgment; if he had arrived just a day earlier, such an unexpected incident could have been easily avoided!
