Chapter 308 All in Vain
Once they had left, Sean broke the silence, saying tentatively, “I don’t expect you to forgive me; I had this plan
from the beginning. I just didn’t think you’d be worried about me.”
Abigail understood the implication behind his words. Since it didn’t seem like she was worried, he hadn’t considered
informing her about the plan.
“If this matter didn’t involve Grandma and me, I wouldn’t have cared about it.” Her tone remained indifferent.
Although he was disappointed, he didn’t show it. “Actually, I targeted the Pearsons because of Alfie. He’s different
from others in Capitalis’ social elite circle. If I didn’t teach the Pearsons at lesson, they could threaten his standing
within the Willis Family
He didn’t want her to constantly mention his help to her and Analise, for it made him uncomfortable and might

As the two of them entered the elevator, she stood with her arms crossed and suddenly found herself at a loss for
words. Since everything had gone according to his plan and she knew that he was safe, there wasn’t much she
could say.
“I only found out later that the Pearsons wanted to kidnap me. It was a last-minute decision, and I had Cameron
make preparations in advance, which successfully led to the Pearsons falling into the trap. Now, they are in a
completely unfavorable position, and I believe it will be a long time before they dare to act behind our backs again,”
Sean suddenly elaborated.
As he spoke, he watched her reflection on the elevator’s metal doors, keenly observing her
reaction.
She nodded after hearing his response. The Pearsons have been in Capitalis for too long, and they’ve started to
believe they’re its rulers.”
A smile played on his lips at her response.
While Sean and Cameron went to clean themselves up. Abigail and Ronaldo decided to go their separate ways.
“Remember what you promised me. I’m waiting for you to help me get rich,” Ronaldo reminded her before leaving.
Of course, she knew he was reminding her that his help was far from free.
As she was about to call for an Uber, she spotted Sean and Cameron.

“Should we head back to Pendorf now, Ms. Quinn?” Cameron asked politely.
“You can go back to where you need to be. Don’t need to worry about me.” She had no intention. of returning with
them. Since the matter was resolved, she absolutely didn’t want to travel with
Sean.
“Is there something else you need to take care of? Sean asked.

“Xavien is handling that case,” he responded. When he decided to show up, Xavien had already submitted valid
evidence to the police.
She looked at him without a word.
“I’m leaving Cameron with you. This place isn’t safe. Besides, if something happens to you, Grandma will hold me
accountable,” he said, deciding to leave before she could chase him away.
Abigail thanked him, and she and Cameron waited for their ride.
Once they were in the car, Cameron couldn’t help but ask, “Ms. Quinn, are you upset that Mr. Graham didn’t tell
you about the plan? It really was a last-minute decision. Before he could. inform you, he went into a signal-blocking
area. That’s why he couldn’t receive any calls or texts.”
“I’m not upset. I feel relieved that this matter is resolved,” Abigail replied.
In fact, she was feeling a little displeased as her assistance seemed somewhat unnecessary. She owed Ronaldo a
favor because of Sean and came running here without second thoughts. Yet, it turned out that they had arranged
before this entire farce, making her feel like a fool. She hadn’t. returned the favor she owed Sean and now found
herself owing one to Ronaldo.
Even though Cameron nodded at her response, he couldn’t help but doubt her true feelings.
