Chapter 16 – I Want a Divorce

In his eyes, she was only concerned about having a child.

They were getting divorced now because she couldn’t conceive, and it seemed like he was nothing more than a tool for her to get pregnant.

Upon hearing those words, Abigail froze for a moment. By the time she reacted, Sean had already picked her up. She instinctively struggled as she yelled, “Sean! You jerk! Let go of me!”

He completely ignored her actions and took out his car keys. With a click, the lights of a black Land Rover nearby flashed.

Before she could struggle even further, he had already pushed her into the car. His tall figure followed suit, forcing himself into the cramped space and trapping her against the door. Then, he kissed her lips.

She wanted to avoid him, but the limited space in the car left her with no room to move. She took a step back, and her back pressed against the car door while leaving her with no escape route. She lifted her hand, wanting to slap Sean in the face.

However, Sean was well-prepared. He caught both her hands and raised them above her head as he pressed them against the car door. His other hand reached around Abigail’s back to unzip her dress.

When he touched her soft and supple skin, his scorching hands accurately held her waist.

It had been a long time since he last touched her, and his desire surged like wildfire. Even his breathing became erratic.

Abigail felt a chill in her chest, which was soon overtaken by the scorching heat of his touch. Yet, her heart felt even colder as tears started to trickle down her cheeks.

Upon sensing that something was wrong, Sean slightly raised his body, and his voice turned hoarse as he asked, “Isn’t this what you want?”

She felt as if she had been delivered a hard slap. It seemed like she had been stripped naked and forced to walk in public, which made her feel utterly embarrassed. She murmured, “Yes. This is what I wanted.”

She used to yearn for his passionate embrace like this, and she used to dream of conceiving his child.

However, it all felt like a joke now.

In his eyes, she was just a sl*t who only pursued such things.

She sneered and closed her eyes. “You can continue if you want. Consider this my last gift to you before the divorce.”

Sean noticed her disgusted expression and turned around before pushing open the car door and leaving.

Abigail remained motionless as she stared at him. “When are we going to file for divorce?”

Her voice was icy, and it was as cold as her hand.

He felt annoyed and flung her hand away. “Tomorrow morning. Are you satisfied now?”

“I couldn’t be more satisfied.”

Upon seeing the disgusted look in her eyes, Sean turned around and left with big strides.

After a while, Abigail got out of the car. Compared to the lively venue, there were very few people on the lawn.

She took a few deep breaths and wiped her eyes with her hand.

Damn it!

What a jerk!

She walked slowly along the path she had come from and finally squatted down before picking up the purse she had dropped while struggling in Sean’s arms earlier.

Meanwhile, Kevin had been paying attention to their every move since Sean came out.

Sean seemed at ease as he left, but Kevin had to deal with the crowd on the lawn. Kevin saw Abigail squatting on the ground as if she had been crying, and after struggling with himself for a moment, he walked onto the lawn and draped his coat over Abigail’s back.

“Uh… Sean asked me to give you his coat.”

When she heard that it was Sean’s coat, she immediately pulled it off, stood up, and threw it back at Kevin. “There’s no need. It’s dirty.”

Kevin could only say, “Come on. I’ll be honest with you! Miss Smith said you caught a cold. If it gets worse because you were here, our collaboration might be ruined. This is my coat. Just bear with it and put it on.”

He gave her the coat again.

This time, Abigail didn’t refuse and put it on. She forced a smile at Kevin. “That’s better. Thank you. I’ll go and look for Miss Smith now.”

Kevin nodded, but when he turned around, he couldn’t help but curse under his breath.

That smile Abigail just gave made him feel heartbroken.

He repeatedly told himself in his mind not to mess with his friend’s wife to steady himself.

As soon as Sean declared his affection for someone, Kevin immediately came looking for Abigail.

If Kevin ended up offending a certain someone with such blatant moves, he might end up picking coal in a rural country tomorrow!

Abigail called Luna and asked if she wanted to leave together.

Yet, it seemed that Luna was busy with something as her voice was slightly muffled. “Okay, you go ahead first. I’ll head back in a while… Hey, stop it! You’re making me shy!”

When Abigail heard that, she was speechless for a moment. She knew that Luna must have laid her eyes on some hot guy and could not step away.

Luna was perfect in every way, save for being perpetually infatuated with anyone good-looking. It was a habit she couldn’t change.

Abigail said helplessly, “In that case, I’ll be heading back first. I’ll leave the driver with you.”

“Okay.” Luna hung up the phone eagerly.

Only then did Abigail leave with ease.

The next morning, she dressed up nicely and went to Graham International.

Sean must’ve arranged things beforehand; she only needed to mention her name before someone led her to the top floor.

“Mr. Graham is waiting for you in his office. You may go in.” The person knocked on the door for her and left.

When Abigail pushed the door open, she saw Sean still dressed in the clothes from last night’s banquet, and he was sitting at the computer while reading a document. The moment he looked up and saw her, his eyebrows lifted slightly to express his surprise.

After being married for three years, it was her first time visiting Graham International to see him.

She only glanced at him briefly and averted her gaze, placing the divorce agreement she had prepared in her bag on the table. “Sign this first.”

Sean’s face instantly turned cold. “Did you come here just for this?”
