Chapter 347 Pleasing Others

Abigail paid no attention to what Cameron would say to Josh as she went straight into her office. After informing her assistant, she lay down on the couch to rest. Soon, she fell into a deep slumber.

Outside, Cameron and Josh found a quiet spot to have a conversation. Cameron regarded Josh with a wry smile and delivered his words in a mocking tone. “Mr. Pearson, Miss Hagl may have claimed to be here to apologize to Ms. Quinn, but she hasn’t taken any tangible steps to demonstrate her sincerity.”

Josh’s expression softened as he responded, “Do you believe that offering a token of apology is the sole indicator of genuine intent?”

“No, my point is, if she truly desires to apologize, she should be making every possible effort rather than coming here and ignoring your calls. One has to wonder, what was she doing when she wasn’t answering your phone calls?” With arms crossed, Cameron wore a cold, smirking expression.

Puzzled by Cameron’s insinuations, Josh approached him and inquired, “What are you getting at?”

“I’m merely conveying a message on behalf of Mr. Graham. It would be in Kelly’s best interest to come here for a genuine apology rather than exploiting it as a pretext to harm Ms. Quinn. Otherwise, her fate could be akin to Joan’s.” As Cameron spoke, his demeanor grew stern.

Josh pursed his lips, contemplating his next words. Kelly has nothing to do with Vincent. This whole thing is a misunderstanding. She didn’t have any motives for coming here.”
