Chapter 574 Retreat


    Abigail snorted. “You looked down on me, assuming I had no thoughts of my own back then.”


    Sean held her hand and pulled her into his arms. “Abby, do you prefer the person you are now or the


    person you were in the past?”


    “What about you?” she asked.


    “I’ve always had feelings for you. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have pursued you for such a long time,” Sean


    replied. In the past, whenever Abigail had mentioned divorce, he hadn’t taken it seriously. At first, he


    was upset, but now he realized he had been quite oblivious. Back then, he had mistaken her


    seriousness for ying hard to get.


    Intimately, they cuddled and finished the movie. Still, Luna had yet toe back, and Abigail guessed


    that she probably wouldn’t return tonight. “I don’t think Luna will be back today. Josh is quite cunning,


    luring her away with the promise of a movie,” she mumbled to Sean helplessly.


    Sean turned off the projector, recalling the scent of Abigail when she left his embrace. “It’s because


    they’re in love, or else Luna wouldn’t have left with him because of a few mere words from him.” In his


    opinion, Luna loved Josh a lot, or she wouldn’t have given in to him so easily, unlike Howard, whom


    she wouldn’t hesitate to reject.


    “You should go back now.” Abigail nudged his leg.


    “Okay.”


    As heartless as she had always been, she didn’t even consider keeping him for the night even though it


    was already sote..


    The next morning, while Abigail was working, Cameron approached her and stopped, not knowing how


    to bring up the topic. “Just tell me what’s on your mind,” she said, staring at him.


    “You guys were right. Her parents are unhappy with my job, saying that I’m earning too little,” he said


    calmly.


    She had a hunch as she set the document aside. “What did she say?”


    “I mentioned she doesn’t have any issue with it. In case her parents oppose us, she’s willing to


    elope with me,” he said, reflecting on I’s stance, which brought him some sce. It was the first


    instance where he empathized with Abigail’s sentiments when Lina disparaged her. This experience


    provided insight into what it’s like to be judged, particrly by the family of someone he deeply cared


    about.


    “Do you think it’s alright for a postgraduate student to elope with you?” Abigail asked instead.


    When I mentioned this yesterday, Cameron was so overjoyed that he didn’t consider it much.


    “Clearly, it is inappropriate. In the future, the most I could be in Capitalis is a high school teacher.


    Haven’t you considered working hard for her since she has fallen for you?” she gently


    asked next.


    Cameron was helpless. “I told them that I n to set up a securitypany, but her parents think that


    it’s not a dignified career because I’ll just be a watchdog at the door.”


    Scratching her head, Abigail suggested, “Why don’t we wait for Sean and listen to his opinion?”


    There were other choices for a dignified career. Still, they thought that a securitypany was the


    most suitable choice for Cameron because of his skills.


    “Being in a rtionship is a little troublesome,” he mumbled. It was true that he liked I, but he wasn’t


    as infatuated with her as Sean and Abigail because he had only known her for a short time.


    Dumbfounded, she didn’t know what she should say and was quiet for a moment. “Let’s wait for


    Sean.”


    “I know that I is highly educated, and her family has raised her well. I think I can support a family


    with 15,000 a month, but her parents disagree.” Scratching his head, Cameron looked a


    little troubled.


    Knowing that he had received a blow, Abigail stood up and patted his shoulderfortingly. “Are you


    stupid? I consider you as my brother, and you still think that you’re not good enough?”


    Cameron remained silent, overwhelmed with distress. Abigail decided to call Sean, who had initially


    nned to scout a location for Cameron’s securitypany. After receiving her call, Sean promptly


    returned to L.Moon. “You can start up anotherpany if not a securitypany. What do you have in


    mind?” he asked.

    Cameron scratched his head. “Can I just give up?”


    Just then, Analise walked in and was anxious when she heard this. “What are you giving up on? The


    rtionship?”


    Isn’t she out shopping? Cameron thought and hurriedly exined, “Nothing”


    “Be honest with Grandma,” Abigail gently reprimanded. She knew Analise was deeply worried about


    Cameron, yet he couldn’t care less.


    Hence, Cameron had to repeat everything. Following their dinner together the previous night, he took a


    lengthy walk with I. During their conversation, she reassured him that she wouldn’t give up on their


    rtionship. However, it was he who felt a bit fatigued and uncertain about their situation.


    “What do you think? Do you like her? If you do, just ask Abigail and Sean to speak on your behalf.”


    Holding Cameron’s hand, Analise put on a concerned expression. Meanwhile, Abigail sat down and


    continued reading the document that she hadn’t finished earlier.


    “I don’t know what to think. We’ve only known each other for a short while, and my feelings for


    I aren’t so deep that I can’t live without her,” Cameron saidposedly. As he was an easygoing


    person, it was impossible to ask him to build a career for a woman he had just met.


    In reply, Analise said gently, “If you would like to fight for her, Sean and Abigail can help you with this.


    Even without setting up a securitypany, it will work out if they just speak on your behalf.”


    “Never mind. I’ll let things take their natural course,” he said nonchntly.


    While observing Cameron, Abigail couldn’t help but think, I really struggles to pick the right men. Out


    of all the options, she ended up with someone who doesn’t value their rtionship.
