Abigail's Second Life novel Chapter 842

Abigail walked toward Jonell and placed her glass on the bar. Sensing someone next to him, Jonell twisted his head to look and met Abigail's gaze.

"Ms. Quinn, how can I help you?" Jonell observed her carefully. He had never met Abigail before and noticed that she was a stark difference from Luna.

Abigail slipped into a seat and smirked coldly. "Mr. Davidson, if you have any plans for my friend, you can always tell me, and we will talk about them."

"Who is your friend?" Jones wasn't about to fall into her trap.

"Luna Smith. You may not know that she had given birth to a child for my brother," Abigail said calmly.

The fact that Luna was once pregnant was not a secret to Jonell, but he didn't know who the child's father was because of her taking a shot. Because of this, Abigail had to go through some trouble for a while to find it out.

"We are not friends, Ms. Quinn. So, you don't have to make small talk with me," Jonell said, getting up to leave.

Wearing a smile, Xavien stopped him from leaving. "There is proof showing that Vincent Pearson is involved in a scam syndicate. Six months after the interrogation, he confessed that somebody from the Davidson Family had planned the whole thing. Everyone from the Davidson Family is under investigation. It's not your turn yet simply because of protocol."

Jonell's expression turned somber. "This is not my problem because I've already emigrated!"

"Emigration does not mean exemption," Xavien said with a cold sneer. "Mr. Davidson, it's best if you negotiate with us."

Unwavering, Jonell asked, "I heard that Sean Graham knows a detective with international authority. Will this detective be the one to investigate me?"

Abigail watched his every facial muscle attentively and noticed that he had not a shard of guilt. What a strong mentality he has!

"We have more evidence than you imagine. Furthermore, all the money from the scam is in Mr. Graham's possession. Why are you still struggling?" Xavien's tone was laced with sarcasm.

"No matter how much evidence he had, he still died at sea, didn't he? Why are you so anxious? Are you worried that you'll lose everything after his death?" he pointed out casually.

Xavien's face turned icy, and Abigail grabbed Jonell's collar. "He didn't die!"

"What do you think the sea is? Regardless of how much money you spend, you won't even find his remains!" Jonell met Abigail's eyes with sarcasm in his eyes.

When Abigail was about to strike him, Xavien held her back.

"Too many people are looking. We can't get into a fight here," he warned in a hushed voice.

Seeing Abigail's bloodshot eyes, Jonell had a good guess in his mind.

At first, he doubted the news of Sean dying at sea. But now, he was pretty sure of its authenticity after seeing Abigail and Xavien's reactions.

After Xavien dragged Abigail away, she asked, "How's my acting?" Her face was grim and especially unpleasant, with a hint of sadness.
