Chapter 221 Excessive Indulgence

Abigail eyed Joan with an unreadable smile before raising her eyebrows at Sean. “How do you plan on having her apologize? Is she going to bow or get on her knees?”

Joan hadn’t even apologized for her attempt to sabotage L.Moon’s reputation.

Sean glanced at Joan and said impassively, “You can ask her for any kind of apology you want, Ms. Quinn.”

“Even though an apology from her would be great, it would also make it hard for me to swallow my food. You should just take her away, Mr. Graham,” Abigail responded indifferently.

She had no interest in flaunting her power over others. Plus, as a fellow female, even kneeled in front of her and apologized, she would find it humiliating as well.

Sean glanced at Cameron, who quickly said to Joan, “Let’s go, Miss Palmer.”

Joan bit her lip and cried out with a hurt expression, “Seanie…”

“Leave first,” Sean said.

Just then, Abigail said, “Miss Palmer, I have a few words to say to all of you.”

Even though Joan disdained Abigail, she kept up her innocent act.

“You only had the nerve to come to Ouisford and mock me for my divorce because you think you have Sean to back you up. I didn’t ask you to get on your knees and apologize out of pity for you. Instead of protecting you at a time like this, the man who makes you think you have the power to bully others is now asking you to apologize to another woman. Do you really think I’m letting you off the hook because I’m scared of him?” Abigail questioned apathetically.

Her words made Joan feel utterly humiliated.

Sean listened in silence. He was in no way upset.
