Abigail's Second Life novel Chapter 797

"I'll go to the car and get you a bottle of water," Josh said, pulling Xavien, who didn't want to leave, and dragging him away.

Sean watched as Abigail retched for half a day without vomiting. He reached out and gently patted her back.

Abigail's body stiffened. Even though she was very reluctant, she quickly pushed him away. "Thank you, Mr. Graham."

...

While Josh was still chatting with Xavien, Abigail's slender figure approached.

He paused for a moment and looked behind her but did not see Sean.

Abigail walked up to him, took the mineral water from his hand, twisted the bottle cap, and walked toward the flower bed.

Xavien got into the car.

Josh watched him drive off to pick up Sean, sighing helplessly.

It wasn't until Abigail got into the car that he spoke up, "Did you talk to Sean?"

"About what?" Abigail asked back.

Josh scratched his head, pondered for a moment, and then slowly said, "About what happened in the past six months. You should explain things. Are you just giving up without explaining anything?"

"He already has a girlfriend. What else is there to explain? I didn't want to live like I did because of Joan. I don't want to be that kind of person. We are all adults now. Since we have chosen to break up, let's move on." Abigail looked out the window, the light from the street lamps occasionally falling on her face, making her look very calm.

"You say you're moving on, but you've been drinking heavily. Is that your way of moving on?" Josh asked with a hint of concern in his voice.

Because he was her brother, he understood why Abigail was behaving this way.

"Drinking is just part of socializing. The company is a mess, and I still have to apologize to some people." Abigail raised her hand to her temple.

At this, Josh's face showed a hint of guilt. "I really don't have time to manage your company. Sean did a better job."

Abigail nodded. "It's okay, you've been looking after it. That's enough."

Back at home, Abigail felt a bit of stomach pain, so she poured herself a glass of hot water. She took several sips before feeling a bit better.

Lying on the couch, Abigail looked at Andrew.

Andrew was still watching anime, and it took him a while to realize that Abigail was looking at him. He instinctively turned around, looking puzzled. "What's wrong?"

"You focus on your show. Don't mind me." Abigail said softly.

"Why shouldn't I mind? Are you having stomach pain?" Andrew asked with concern as he noticed her hand on her abdomen.

Abigail lowered her hand. "It's not that bad. I just drank some water; I'll be fine."

"I'll look for some medicine for you," Andrew said, pausing the TV and wheeling himself to the cabinet to search for medicine.
