Chapter 74: Sawyer Jones’ Identity
That afternoon, Abigail sat on the deck behind the cabin, enjoying her tea with Sawyer.
However, a few minutes later, Sawyer suddenly excused himself to make a call.
Abigail tried to enjoy the scenery, but her attention was drawn to Sawyer, standing not far from the cabin, still talking over the phone.
Though she couldn’t hear what he was saying or see his expression since she could only see his back, she noticed him running his hand through his hair a few times. This led Abigail to speculate that he was talking to someone he didn’t really like.
"Did something happen at his company?" Abigail wondered anxiously. "Or is it something related to his family?"
Minutes passed as she waited for him to finish his call, but he remained absorbed in the conversation. Abigail took out her cell phone and opened the news online to distract herself from worrying about him.
Abigail was stunned as she read the latest news on the internet. After reading a few articles, she tucked her cell phone into her coat and glanced at Sawyer.
To her surprise, he had finished and was now walking toward her. She noted his expression, which caught her off guard—he looked calm.
’Is he part of the Jones family mentioned in the news? Why does he seem so composed despite everything that’s happened? The old Jones was hospitalized,’ Abigail wondered.
Sawyer smiled as he sat in the chair beside her, his eyes narrowing as he tried to read her thoughts.
"Why are you looking at me like that, Abby?" he asked.
