Chapter 160: Abigail Feels Sad Hearing About Grandma’s Past
"Granny, why did you ask me to leave the room? What did you talk about with Sawyer?" Abigail asked.
"We talked about your mischievous antics when you were a child," lied Sophie while placing the jewelry box on the table. When she noticed Abigail roll her eyes, she smiled faintly. "Oh, dear, are you doubting me?" asked Granny Sophie playfully.
Abigail shook her head slowly, signaling she didn’t believe it.
"Grandma, do you think I’m still a child or childish? I’m not both. Not anymore; I’m a full-grown woman now. I’m twenty-five!" She smiled as she watched her grandma laugh. "I could tell if you weren’t telling me the truth."
Sophie laughed as she pinched Abigail’s dainty, flawless nose before telling her, "I threatened Sawyer. If he makes you sad like Ryland did, I won’t let him live in peace. I will hunt him down wherever he hides!"
Once again, Abigail did not believe her grandmother, who desperately tried to avoid revealing what she had discussed with Sawyer.
"Grandma, please..." Abigail started, feeling frustrated with her.
Sophie’s laughter gradually faded as she noticed her granddaughter’s disbelief, and her expression shifted to annoyance.
She didn’t want to upset Abigail, so she expressed her concern that Sawyer’s family might reject her if they learned about her own family.
Abigail’s heart immediately tensed, and her hands clenched tightly in her lap. She was unsure if Sawyer’s family already knew about her own family, especially about her father’s questionable reputation. When she met his grandparents, she couldn’t remember if she had mentioned her family, as they hadn’t asked about it.
She was sure that they only knew about her grandmother in Orange Town. She recalled how excited Grandma Martha was to meet her grandmother.
