    Chapter 349 Change of Mind


    Josh found Kelly’s idea appealing, but convincing Sean was no easy task. To some extent, Abigail and


    Sean shared simr personalities. Once they had formed an opinion about something, they were not


    quick to change their minds.


    “You’re oversimplifying things. Sean won’t easily dispel his misunderstanding toward you with what


    Uncle Vincent has done to him. Instead of reaching out to Sean, you might be better off talking to


    Abigail directly,” Josh suggested as he tenderly stroked Kelly’s hair. Observing the great effort she had


    put into resolving the misunderstandings between her and Abigail, he couldn’t help but feel a sense of


    guilt. Kelly’s inherent self-consciousness drove her to seek the approval of others, and she would go to


    great lengths to change someone’s negative opinion of her. He had often considered advising her


    against such behavior but hesitated, fearing it would damage her self-esteem.


    “But Abigail doesn’t like me. The more I try to approach her, the angrier she’ll get. Josh, you and her


    are still friends. Can you talk to her about it? I’ll stay by Old Mrs. Graham’s side. What if it works?” She


    looked at him with hopeful eyes.


    He furrowed his brows. “Do you genuinely want to be friends with Abigail, Kelly?”


    “I know you care a lot about your rtionship with Abigail, Josh. It’s because of me that things. have


    be strained between you two,” she admitted, her voice filled with guilt.


    At that moment, Josh found himself at a loss for words, witnessing how Kelly consistently prioritized the


    feelings of others.


    “Just trust me for once.” She gently shook her brother’s hand.


    Looking at her, Josh sighed and said, “Alright, but be cautious. Before you earn Sean’s favor, think


    carefully about what you say.” Even though he knew that Sean wasn’t easy to talk to and was ruthless,


    Josh also knew his personality; as long as one didn’t step on his boundaries, he wouldn’t hurt anyone.


    “Okay!” Kelly nodded. As soon as she lowered her gaze, a glint of triumph shed across her eyes.


    When Abigail and Luna came out of the studio, they saw Josh standing not far away.


    “He has been waiting all afternoon, and he doesn’t even say what he wants. He just stands there,”


    Cameron whispered to Abigail.


    Abigail thought, How smart of him. After all, by not disclosing the reason for his visit, Josh left Cameron


    with no grounds to kick him out.


    “He’s definitely here because of Kelly again,” Luna said in a hushed voice.

    As Abigail descended the steps, Josh approached her and uttered, “I’d like to have a serious


    conversation with you.”


    Abigail responded, “If it’s about Kelly, you can just forget it.” She maintained her belief that maintaining


    distance from them would lead to a peaceful life, even though events rarely unfolded as nned.


    When Josh stopped her, Cameron immediately stepped in, positioning himself protectively in front of


    her. With a stern expression, he warned, “Mr. Pearson, please don’t get me started.”


    Josh looked at Abigail and said, “I promise this will be thest time. After today, I won’t bother you.


    anymore.”


    Luna grew annoyed, expressing, “Mr. Pearson, do you realize you’re causing trouble for others?


    Business should be based on mutual agreement. How dare your family force Abigail to design a set of


    clothes for Kelly when she had already refused?”


    He responded, “It’s not about the clothes.”


    Luna retorted, “Who cares what it’s about? Can’t you see that you’re causing problems for Abigail right


    now?” She then attempted to pull Abigail away, intending to leave.


    However, Abigail grasped Luna’s hand and turned her attention to him. “Can you guarantee that after


    talking to me this time, your family won’t bother me again?” she inquired.


    After hearing that, he felt somewhat ufortable. He nodded gently and offered an apology in a low


    voice, saying, “I’m sorry.”


    “Let’s talk then. Do you want it to be a one-on-one conversation, or can Luna join too?” In the end,


    Abigail was still a soft-hearted person. Although she certainly disliked Kelly, her first impression of Josh


    was nice. Thus, she didn’t want things to get ugly between them. Moreover, perhaps she was also


    influenced by Sean’s reminder.


    Half an hourter, Abigail and Josh sat in a restaurant. She didn’t order anything and asked him coldly,


    “So, what do you want to talk about?” To be honest, she had a hunch that it would be about Kelly.


    He exined, “Kelly went to visit Old Mrs. Graham to clear up the misunderstanding. She did


    everything to please her, hoping that Sean would put in good words in front of you. After all, he was the


    one who uncovered the truth. She believes that if he vouches for her innocence, you won’t harbor ill


    feelings towards her.”


    She couldn’t help but chuckle upon hearing this. After a moment, she nodded and inquired, “Anything


    else?”


    Abigail admitted that Kelly was skilled at lying and undeniably clever. In Josh’s presence, Kelly had the


    knack of using her misunderstanding as a convenient excuse. As long as there was no concrete


    evidence linking her to Vincent’s actions, she could continue ying the innocent card.


    2/3


    Abigail found it the first time she had encountered such a shameless woman.


    “I don’t want Kelly toe into contact with the Graham Family. I can assure you there’s indeed. no


    connection between what happened to Uncle Vincent and her. I’ve checked it many times. When we


    found her, she was living with her adopted family, and she was leading a cautious and sensitive life.


    She’s genuinely hurt that you harbor negative feelings toward her,” Josh spoke


    sincerely, locking eyes with Abigail.This is property ? of N?velDrama.Org.
