Chapter 171: Abby, Are You Mad?
Five minutes after leaving the Jones’ house, Sawyer drives as usual, focusing on the road ahead. However, not a single word he speaks relates to what happened at his grandparents’ house.
Abigail wants to ask him several times but holds back her curiosity, knowing he seems reluctant to discuss Serena’s situation.
She decides to wait for him to start the conversation, not wanting him to perceive her as a shallow woman.
To distract herself from her curiosity, Abigail checks her cell phone. She is surprised to find five missed calls from Lana and several unknown numbers.
Abigail hadn’t heard any phone ring earlier because she had deliberately silenced her cell phone when she arrived at Sawyer’s grandparents’ house.
’What does she want? Why won’t she give up on contacting me?’ She silently sighs.
This isn’t the first time Lana has contacted her since the incident, but she has never picked up or read any of her messages.
Abigail feels she can’t talk to Lana because she still hurts every time she remembers that incident, especially when Lana turns her back on her for Kian when they meet at the police station.
For months, she avoided reading news about Kian on the Internet. She had no idea what had happened to that man. Has the case been processed in court, or is it still under investigation?
’Should I read what she wants? Why did she contact me again?’ Abigail wondered, puzzled.
After some quick thinking and calming her emotions to suppress her anger, she finally decided to open the text message from Lana.
