Chapter 372 Rubbing Salt in the Wound

That night, Abigail showed up at the hospital with some expensive gifts. However, she didn’t head directly to Colby’s ward. Instead, she told the nurses to inform Lina about her presence first. Soon enough, both Lina and Kelly showed up together. “What are you guys doing here?” Lina questioned harshly the moment she saw Abigail.

“I think they’re here to apologize, Kelly muttered softly. Lina took one glance at the gifts and hampers in Abigail and Analise’s hands before she let out a scoff. I’m sure you guys drugged some of the food inside. You guys are trying to poison all of us, aren’t you? Us Grahams aren’t taking any gifts from you guys.

However, Sean simply ignored Kelly and stared at Lina instead. “I was the one who told them to visit Grandpa,” he said. Lina seemed rather embarrassed by her actions at that moment. Meanwhile, Abigail simply held onto her grandmother’s hand without saying anything. “Why should they visit?! They’re the ones who brought upon all this trouble!” Lina mumbled under her

breath.

Sean knew that Abigail felt bad after what happened with Colby, so he turned around to speak to her. “You guys should go take a look at him. He’s in a decent condition today, and he’s able to speak now.”

“Alright,” Analise replied before she led Abigail toward Colby’s ward. Lina, on the other hand, let out a scoff before she followed behind them with a resentful expression on her face. “I told them to visit Grandpa. Why are you tagging along?” Sean stopped her.

“Aren’t you worried that-”

to say, but Kelly stopped her in time. “Mr. Quinn is right. You shouldn’t injure their pride like that, Grandma. There’s no conclusion for this incident yet.” For some reason, Kelly’s words managed to keep Lina silent. Sean shot them another icy glare before he
