Chapter 243 The Power of a Present

Abigail stiffened up and glared at Sean, shouting, “I don’t want your life! I don’t care what you can give me. Let me go!”

Under the influence of alcohol, he clamped his hand firmly on her wrist, displaying a stubborn expression.

During their struggle, Abigail, wearing high heels, lost her balance and stumbled into Sean’s embrace. Seizing the opportunity, he wrapped his arms around her waist and kissed her passionately, intending to rekindle their connection.

Her body quivered as she was almost drawn into the intense kiss. However, her rationality prevailed, and she pushed him away, speaking slowly and deliberately, “We are divorced! You have no right to interrogate me over someone else’s present! Who do you think you are? What gives you the right to treat me like this?”

As/Sean began to sober up, he loosened his grip slightly. Abigail quickly pushed him away, demanding, “Stay away from me!”

However, he remained unmoved, refusing to budge an inch. Taking a few steps backward, she displayed frustration and wariness. Yet, her heart skipped a beat when she glimpsed the intense turmoil within his eyes. She hurriedly averted her gaze and discreetly hid her hands behind her back.

Sean couldn’t help but feel an intense ache in his chest as he observed Abigail’s actions. The pain was so overwhelming that it felt like a dagger piercing his heart, leaving him breathless. “Abby…”

“Sean, it’s over between us,” she stated calmly but coldly, her voice devoid of emotion. “I hope you can respect that and stop interfering in my life.”
