Abigail’s Second Life

Chapter 572 | Really Can't Accept It

Sean gazed at Abigail, feeling a heavy weight on his chest.

"Even if I were to accept you again and consider starting a family with you, I know that things can never go back to how they were," she said. "I have given you my deepest emotions, and I don't believe I have wronged you. It was you who ignored my true feelings during those three years. Now, you want to return to the past. Do you think that's possible?"

He apologized, "I'm truly sorry."

"I want to fully accept you, but I can't. Everyone thinks that I can think through, let go, and move forward from the wrongs that were done to me, but I can't understand why. I now realize that people are always entangled and filled with grudges. I keep thinking about the wrongs each of you did to me. If I didn't care, that would be the real sign that I don't care about any of you." Abigail rarely opened up about her inner thoughts to Sean, but she felt it was necessary to clarify.

He watched her quietly, feeling like he was entering her heart for the first time.

"Just like I genuinely don't care about Old Mrs. Graham, so when I see her, I feel like she's just an ordinary stranger. I've even started to forget her past actions toward me. It's because I still care about all of you that I keep obsessing, keep recalling those unpleasant memories, and firmly hold them in my heart," she said with a bitter smile. "I care deeply about everything. I'm not that generous."

Sean held Abigail's hand, his eyes slightly red. Then, he lowered his gaze and softly said, "I'm sorry, Honey. I was truly wrong."

She looked at him and smiled gently. "I really don't want to let go... I know Grandma was right, but I can't accept it. I don't know the solution, so I agonize over it." Sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ Find ɴøᴠel.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

often found herself lost in thought during late nights. If she hadn't cared for Sean, she might not have felt the pang of sadness seeing him risk his life for Luna. This incident became a turning point in their emotional conflict. It led her to give him another chance, seeking a reason to reconcile with him, to find peace from the pain of the past he had caused.
