Chapter 322


    Chapter 322 Don’t Disturb Her


    “Mr. Booker, I’ve never quite understood why things like this happened. I hate unnecessary troubles,


    and dealing with such issues is just a waste of my time. Abigail’s tone was no longer as polite as


    before. She was smiling, but there was deep helplessness and distress on her face.


    Anthony suddenly felt guilty because of her words. “Little junior…”

    “Mr. Booker, I shouldn’t beining to you, but your fiancee has indeed affected me. How do you


    think I should resolve this matter?” she continued.


    “It’s my responsibility to resolve it. Do you believe in me, little junior?” His voice held a hopeful


    tone.


    “Mr. Booker, you and your fiancee have involved me in your rtionship and caused me to be unjustly


    insulted. You must finish this, whether you have my trust or not. If I don’t believe in you, will that


    prevent you from resolving it?” she asked with a smile.


    I’m very sorry-”


    s saying sorry enough? If I’d talked to you gently today, my troubles would’ve been endless. If possible,


    please block all my contact information. Her tone was mild, but her words left no room for negotiation.


    “I’m sorry, Ms. Quinn.” Anthony apologized once again.


    “Mr. Booker, I’ll always remember your help in the past, and I hope you remember that our rtionship


    was mutually beneficial. I sincerely hope you can talk to your fiancee and stop bothering me. We


    shouldn’t contact each other in the future. I’m busy and don’t have time to deal with unnecessary


    troubles. She had no intention of making her words so resolute, but she knew that when it came to


    matters of the heart, she had to be firm to put an end to the issue.


    After hanging up the phone, she sighed helplessly. Her feelings for Anthony were not that deep.


    especially after he introduced her to Ronaldo to help him achieve his cooperation with the Fernandez


    Family. Ever since then, their friendship was no longer pure.


    Their already strained friendship had turned into the current situation after Lacey’s humiliation. They


    could not even face each other anymore.


    Abigail blocked all of Anthony’s contact information and purchased a ticket to return to Pendorf. Tve


    already returned. Thank you for taking care of me these past few days. When you have the time,e


    to Pendorf as my guest, and I’ll be your tour guide. After sending this message, she put on her eye


    mask and leaned back to sleep on the ne.


    When she turned on her phone upon returning to Pendorf, she received many messages from


    Ronaldo.

    You’re not going to resolve my cousin’s matter anymore?’


    ‘You’re leaving! You didn’t even let me see you off. You’re ungrateful!”


    ‘Well, then. Have a safe journey.”


    She read the messages, put her phone away, and exited the airport.


    If Anthony cherished their past rtionship, he should resolve the trouble caused by Lacey


    himself.


    In a distant ce, Anthony considered blocking Abigail’s contact information several times, but in the


    end, he gave up. He was well aware that even if he did not block her, she would do the same to him.


    After a long contemtion, he called Lacey. Once the call connected, he heard her crying and saying,


    “Why? Are you gonna scold me like that b*tch did?”


    He clenched the phone so hard that his veins bulged. After a moment of silence, he rified, “I


    wanted to cooperate with the Fer Family, but I don’t necessarily have to do it with your


    family. Lacey, we Bookers are also a family of schrs, and it’s difficult for me to marry someone with


    your level of manners. Do you understand what I mean?”


    “What do you mean?!” Her voice rose a few octaves.


    “What I mean is that I need to reconsider our marriage. His tone was filled with helplessness.


    “Anthony, are you doing this because of Abigail-


    “If I were, I would’ve been with her long ago. Do you think you’ll have the chance to use these


    underhanded tactics behind my back?” His words carried the indulgence he had for Lacey,


    She choked and did not say anything.


    “Lacey, a good rtionship between a man and a woman doesn’t necessarily lead to romance. In the


    world of business, interests take precedence over emotions. The fact that you and I met is also


    because I’m someone who pursues interests. Do you understand?” Anthony’s tone was candid and


    unconcerned, as if he were discussing a very ordinary matter.


    He used to pretend in front of Abigail due to his fondness for her during their university days, but with


    Lacey, he could not be bothered to do so. It was pointless.


    Til talk to your parents about reconsidering our marriage,” he said and was about to hang up the


    phone.


    “Anthony… I was wrong. I’ll apologize to her. I apologize. Please don’t do this…” Lacey almost


    2/3


    immediately capitted.


    He remained silent.


    “I know I was wrong…” she said, crying without care.


    “If only you had maintained the way you were when I first met you, that would’ve been so much better.


    Why did you have to do those things?” Anthony’s voice was filled with disappointment.


    Lacey had sessfully destroyed the superficial friendship between him and Abigail. Still, he did not


    want to lose her, no matter what.


    “I know I was wrong. I’ll apologize to her-”


    “No need. She’s extremely hostile to us now. Please don’t bother her anymore.” He interrupted her.


    Though his tone was gentle, his face was expressionless.
