Abigail’s Second Life (Abigail and Sean)
Chapter 302

Chapter 302 Stop the Fight

Sean hung up the phone, and his emotions flickered with a momentary sense of disappointment.

Alfie noticed it and smirked. "What's the matter? You rejected her, and now you're feeling down? If you really miss her, you can go back to Pendorf, I can manage things here in Capitalis." "Can you manage things now that you're stuck on bed rest?" Sean shot him an exasperated look.

"Well, it is the most effective way to live. You don't need to be called upon to do anything. Still, if you need my help with an investigation, I can handle it," Alfie replied with a relaxed smile. Sean reached out and patted his shoulder. "You've done enough. I'll take it from here."

Alfie's face was pale due to blood loss. Yet, when he heard Sean's words, he couldn't help but mutter forlornly, "Do you think I'm useless? If I had been more vigilant, these things wouldn't have happened. If none of these things happened, you wouldn't have to handle these messes in Capitalis

Sean had always treated Alfie like a younger brother. So, he simply patted Alfie's head and said, "What you've done is already commendable. Are you willing to lose your life for this?"

Of course, Alfie wasn't willing. He had come a long way with Sean's support and hadn't enjoyed life to the fullest yet.

"Your life is important. Take care of yourself, Sean advised sternly. sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ Findɴovel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"All right." Alfie was surprisingly obedient.

Right after their conversation, Cameron entered the room. Then, he spoke respectfully. "I've found some crucial evidence." Sean gestured for him to continue.

Cameron approached before handing over a USB drive to Sean. Sean inserted it into his computer, and Alfie leaned over to watch.

The contents of the drive included security footage from a mental hospital. The footage was brief but revealing.

Sean recognized the elderly woman in the video. That woman was none other than Vincent Pearson's housekeeper. She was someone who had been with the family for nearly her entire life and held a crucial position in the family.

Then, Sean examined the remaining images after watching the video.

Alfie praised Cameron with a thumbs-up.

Sean removed the USB drive and instructed Cameron, "Well done, but this isn't enough. I want you to investigate the entire Pearsons' financial situation. Don't let a single issue slip through."

"Yes," Cameron replied, then turned and left without further ado,

"Remember, your safety is important." Sean suddenly reminded him from behind.

Cameron paused, glanced back at Sean, and appeared genuinely moved. "I understand."

After Cameron left, Sean felt somewhat uneasy.

Had he been so inattentive to the well-being of his subordinates prior to this? Just one sentence made Cameron so appreciative.

Meanwhile, Abigail was fully immersed in her design work at home when her phone received a notification for an Instagram post.

She paused her work and quickly opened the app upon seeing the Pearson Group's name.

The post was about the Pearson Group being embroiled in a tax scandal. Several high-ranking. executives were taken away for investigation, and it seemed to be a significant issue, given that Instagram had pushed the notification.

Abigail perused the post but couldn't find any mention of Josh.

Three middle-aged men were arrested in the accompanying images. Frankly, they seemed rather confident during the arrest.

She understood that this was likely orchestrated by Sean.

After a brief look, she realized the post had very few comments. News of corporate tax problems. didn't attract as much attention from netizens as entertainment-related topics did.

She exited Instagram and was about to resume her design work when her phone rang.

When she saw that it was a call from Analise, she felt a bit surprised.

While Analise would usually call her, she sensed that there was something unusual about this phone call today.

Abigail answered and asked in a soft tone, "Grandma, what's the matter?"

"I don't know how to tell you." Analise hesitated.

"Did someone from the Pearsons in Capitalis contact you?" Abigail immediately guessed.

"Mhm... They said Sean used improper means to tarnish the Pearsons' reputation, which led to the investigation. If he continues, it won't end well for him. Please try to persuade him," Analise spoke in a low voice.

Abigail licked her lips; she couldn't meddle in Sean's affairs. Moreover, she believed Sean wouldn't act recklessly.

"I'll call him to discuss it, but don't trust the Pearsons," Abigail consoled Analise.

She planned to appease Analise before calling Sean to discuss this matter.

"Abigail, you have to make Sean come back and stop him from fighting with the Pearsons. This is ultimately my fault, and Sean's people have been implicated due to my actions. I don't care what compensation he wants; I'm willing to provide anything he names. I just don't want him to keep battling with the Pearsons," Analise said as her voice was laden with guilt.

"I'll talk to him," Abigail repeated.

She was keen to find out what the Pearsons had said to Analise to make her so fearful.

Given Sean's capabilities, she doubted he would be at a disadvantage in this situation. He was never one to engage in any battles without a solid plan. So, she dialed his number after ending the call with her grandmother.

He picked up quickly.

"Do you have confidence in handling the Pearsons matters?" Abigail went straight to the point.

"I never undertake anything without confidence. You should know that," Sean replied calmly.

She pursed her lip and hesitated for a moment. She wasn't sure how to word Analise's pleadings.
