The Spare Wife by Nadia Gordon

Chapter 201 What a Coincidence

As soon as Abigail walked toward Analise, she crouched down and playfully poked the orange kitten.

The orange kitten was startled by her appearance and quickly hid away.

Abigail couldn’t help but smile at this.

Analise averted her eyes with a touch of discomfort as she watched Abigail having fun with the kitten. “How long are you planning to stay this time?”

“I’ll probably leave tomorrow. I’ll take you to Pendorf once I wrap up my work. You can’t refuse this time, Grandma.” Abigail sat on a chair, looking serious.

Alas, Analise immediately expressed her rejection, saying, “I’ve already said it repeatedly. Don’t waste money on buying a house. Why won’t you listen to me?” She was well aware of how pricey properties were in Pendorf. So, she was only saying all this because she didn’t want to put too much pressure on Abigail.

“It’s not a waste of money. My savings are more than enough for something like this. I won’t even need to take a mortgage,” Abigail replied with quiet confidence.

“What if I don’t want to go to the city?” Analise asked softly.

Although Abigail understood that Analise had grown accustomed to the countryside, she couldn’t possibly allow her grandmother to stay here alone without her guilty conscience bugging her.

“Grandma, please listen to me…”

“You rarely visit me. Why don’t I cook some of your favorite dishes?” Analise changed the topic and refused to continue discussing it.

Abigail sighed wearily as she thought, It seems it would take a lot to convince Grandma to come with me.
