They thought it was Abigail's fault.

However, without the despicable actions of Vincent and his wife, would things have escalated to this point?

After dinner, Abigail returned to her room to draw.

Sean sat beside her and said in a low voice, "Vincent and his daughter are too arrogant. Do you agree if I teach them a lesson?"

"Teaching them a lesson at this time won't help. If we upset Old Mrs. Pearson, it won't do any good for our reputation. The best way is to expose the bad things Vincent has done as soon as possible," Abigail replied calmly as she continued sketching.

"Josh has been investigating, but it seems there hasn't been much progress." Sean tapped his temple with his finger lightly.

If things didn't go well, he might have to step in personally.

Abigail glanced at him. "What if you investigate?"

"If I investigate, it will take some time. Also, if I don't show up here frequently, Vincent and those behind him will be even more cautious. That's why I let your brother handle it," Sean explained. Then, he stood up and walked over to the couch.

Abigail nodded and didn't say much.

After finishing her work, she realized that he had left at some point.

After taking a shower and lying on the bed, she sent Sean a message.

'When did you leave?'

'You were focused on drawing, and when I spoke to you, you ignored me, so I left.'
