Abigail’s Second Life - Season 4 Episode 31

Why provoke Abigail when they could maintain their current peaceful coexistence?

“Josh, you saved her grandmother’s life. I’m asking you now-can you help fulfill Kelly’s wish?” Scarlett’s

expression carried a hint of annoyance.

He also looked at her with a slightly disgruntled expression. “I can’t do that. Who Abigail decides to

design for is her choice. We can’t morally pressure her into doing something.”

“I know that Abigail still holds a grudge against our family because of Vincent’s actions, but if you take

Kelly to Pendorf and explain things to Abigail properly, it should be enough. You don’t know how much

Kelly loves her designs. Moreover, this was just a misunderstanding, and if they could clear it up, they

could become great friends,” she continued to persuade Josh.

His eyebrows tightly furrowed, and he did not immediately refute her. In reality, he would be happy if

Abigail could get along with Kelly.

“Why don’t you call and ask her first? If she doesn’t want to, you can say so.” Her tone softened.

“Alright, I’ll call.” He finally gave in and decided to try asking her first. He thought that if his mother

made an offer, it would likely be an attractive one that Abigail might accept.

With that in mind, Josh, feeling the pressure of his mother’s gaze, placed a call to Abigail. When the

call was answered, he spoke gently, “Is it too late to call? Did I disturb you?”

“It’s okay,” she replied in her usual reserved tone.

“My mom has talked to you before, and it’s about Kelly wanting a dress for an event. She likes your

designs-”

Before he could finish, she coldly interrupted him, Mr. Pearson, I don’t have the time. I’ll be busy

working on the gowns and have no time to design. There are so many renowned designers in the

country and abroad; I’m sure the Pearson Family can hire someone else. Why do you have to bother

me?”

Josh had expected this would be the result, so he awkwardly touched his nose. However, before he

could say anything, his phone

as taken away by his mother.

“It’s Josh and Kelly’s mother speaking. Ms. Quinn, the misunderstanding between Kelly and you is due

to Josh’s uncle; Kelly is also a victim. If you mind, she’s willing to apologize to you. Our family is also

willing to double your previous offer.” Scarlett genuinely wanted to fulfill Kelly’s wish.

Seeing Kelly look so disappointed tugged at her heart. She believed that the Pearson Family could get

anything they wanted. Since they were just talking about a dress, she was sure that Abigail would

agree, as long as they showed enough sincerity.

After a brief pause, Abigail replied, “I don’t have the time. I can’t split myself in half, can I?”

“Ms. Quinn, you and your grandmother do owe Josh. Are you going to embarrass us like this?”

Scarlett’s voice turned colder, clearly applying pressure.

“If you put it that way, how have the Pearson Family treated me behind my back?” Abigail questioned

indifferently.

“Regarding Vincent’s actions, we’re also deeply upset. However, Kelly and us are innocent victims. as

well. He implicated us and didn’t protect him from the way Sean is treating him now, did we? Shouldn’t

granting your request be enough to show our respect?” Scarlett argued.

Josh took his phone back, frowned at her, and said to Abigail, “I’m sorry, my mother is a bit worked up.

Please don’t be upset.”

Abigail took a deep breath. “Mr. Pearson, I have a lot of orders to complete, and I hope your family

won’t add to my workload. If you want me to repay a favor, ask for something else. I promise I will do it

if it’s within my ability. But please don’t insist on the dress design. I’ve always hated it when people

force me.”

“I’ll talk to them about it,” Josh replied and promptly ended the call. He knew that hanging up abruptly

might seem impolite to her, but he was more concerned about Scarlett taking the phone and possibly

offending Abigail.

“Josh, she’s just had a few moments of internet fame. Why are you siding with her?” Scarlett was

getting a little angry. She thought her approach had been polite.

Kelly was willing to apologize, so what was Abigail’s problem?

“She’s busy. Let’s not force her, okay?” His voice carried a hint of helplessness. He wanted to get angry

but also understood that doing so would not help.

Hearing that, she stormed off in frustration.

After ending the call, Abigail slammed her phone onto the table. Josh’s phone call had angered her,

and Scarlett’s attempt to blackmail her with the favor he once did for her grandmother only made it

worse.

What about the things the Pearsons had done to her and her grandmother? Did they owe her a life as

well?

After fuming for a while, she decided to block Josh’s number along with Scarlett’s. She would design

for whoever she wanted, so why were these people acting as if they were gods?!

Even if they were, they should still act reasonably! The Pearson Family had some nerve after all the

trouble caused by Vincent, demanding her to design a dress for Ke
