The Spare Wife by Nadia Gordon

Chapter 2

Abigail’s voice was crisp and clear, and her eyes were determined, but after

she said those words, Sean’s phone started ringing. He immediately whisked

out his cell phone, checked the caller ID, and frowned in concern before

picking up. “What happened?”

She couldn’t hear what the person on the phone said, but he replied, “I’ll be

right there.” Then, he left the bedroom without even so much as a glance at

Abigail.

A snort escaped her lips, but she said nothing as she decided to forgo sleep

for tonight. Then, she packed her stuff, printed out the divorce agreement,

and swiftly signed her name. Then, she placed them on the coffee table in

the living room along with a few cards and left their marital home.

Luna crossed her long legs as she leaned casually against the hood of the

car and straightened herself. Her eyes almost popped out of their sockets in

surprise when she saw Abigail coming with just a tiny piece of luggage. “Are

Luna still sounded doubtful, but Abigail shrugged nonchalantly. “I’m done with

Luna didn’t question Abigail further. Instead, she turned the steering wheel

and cursed, “Damn it. Sean Graham is so rich. You should at least get a few

hundred million in assets for the divorce!”

Abigail pursed her lips indifferently. “His empire is his asset before marriage,

and I have no interest in coveting that.”

Frankly, Sean was a generous person when it came to money. If their

properties were strictly and legally divided, she would get way more than a

few hundred million, but it was never money that she wanted right from the

beginning.
