Chapter 675 They Deserve It
Abigail couldn't help but question the authenticity of his words despite seeing sincerity in his eyes as he spoke.
"I've also been in touch with her. I believe she might be dealing with some mental issues. I advised her to take some time off," Abigail shared, then proceeded to take a few sips of her soup.
Sean looked at her and nodded after a moment.
A sense of guilt washed over Abigail. Sean wasn't oblivious to it, but he restrained himself from overthinking.
Perhaps Luna has genuine reasons that are difficult to share, prompting her to end her relationship with Josh?
After breakfast, Abigail arranged to meet Daniel at a café.
Arriving early, she decided to order a cup of coffee while waiting for Daniel.
As she looked up after placing the order, she noticed Daniel and Simond walking in, engaged in lively conversation.
Abigail unconsciously frowned. Does Daniel know Simond?
"Miss Quinn," Daniel greeted as he saw her.
Simond approached with a smile, his eyes sweeping over Abigail's outfit from head to toe, exuding a sense of ease. "Miss Quinn, it's a pleasure to see you."
Abigail nodded, maintaining her distance.
They took their seats as Daniel scanned the QR code for the menu on his phone. "Miss Quinn, are you seeking me out to discuss a new job?"
Originally, Abigail intended to use Daniel's connections to meet a retired special forces soldier. With Simond present, she hesitated, though Luna's matter couldn't be delayed. This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
"I heard you have a good relationship with a retired special forces soldier. I wanted to ask if you could introduce us," Abigail said, deciding to be direct.
Daniel put away his phone. A hint of indifference in his eyes as he asked, "What's the reason? What's in it for me?"
"I'll agree to your request as long as it's something within my capabilities." Abigail leaned back and looked at Daniel.
He smirked, saying, "You should know what I want. I'm afraid you won't be willing to give it to me. After all, what you have now has no rivals in the fashion industry."
"Whether I'm willing or not depends on the capabilities of the special forces soldier you're referring to. If he can help me get what I want, there's even a possibility of you obtaining a share in L.Moon, not to mention the provision of a complete size chart for the entire women's clothing line," Abigail responded.
For her, there was no personal gain that could outweigh the importance of Luna and Sean's safety.
She contemplated that even if it meant depleting all her wealth, she would stand against Vincent and the clandestine figure behind him until the end.
Vincent had forced her and her parents into exile for over two decades, and he had also inflicted harm upon Luna and Sean. It was a blood feud.
"Is it worth it?" Simond suddenly inquired.
"You wouldn't know because you haven't experienced it. My friends, my family, and the person I love— they have all been ruined by them. Do you think it's worth it?" Abigail responded, her eyes filled with resentment.
Daniel signaled Simond with his eyes.
Simond crossed his arms and smiled. "Just a special forces soldier can't be of much help. You're willing to sacrifice these benefits to save your friends, but unfortunately, his special forces friends lack the ability to assist you."
"How do you know if you don't try?" Abigail countered.
"Add my contact number. I have a mercenary team. I am also investigating the people behind Luna. We can work together. You can extract what I need from Luna, and I will uncover the mastermind behind her," Simond said calmly.
"How can I trust you?" Abigail, lacking information about Simond, found it challenging to believe him.
"This fraud case involves a diverse group of individuals, including wealthy Eswadians and some immigrants living abroad. With just the three of you, Sean and the Pearsons, it will be challenging to handle. You are all ordinary business people with strong moral values, while they are not. Using involvement with dark forces abroad as an excuse is simply a cover-up; do you understand?" Simond explained helplessly.
Abigail took out her phone and saved Simond's contact number.
"If your adversaries are similar to you, then both you and Sean have already achieved something remarkable, especially Sean. He was able to uncover and expose this matter, something most
people would not dare to do," Simond told Abigail.
When the coffee arrived, Abigail waited for the waiter to leave before furrowing her brow and asking, "Do you have a plan?"
"The plan is for you to find Luna. Only Luna has truly been in contact with the individuals behind her. The roots of this matter all start with her," Simond furrowed his brow.
Abigail licked her lips and pondered with a furrowed brow. "I will go to Saraville in a few days to find her."
"Remember, just act naturally," Simond reminded.
Abigail nodded slightly. "But I don't quite understand. If their goal is to launder their money, does dealing with Luna make any difference?"
"So, here is the peculiar part—why would they target Luna? If their intention was truly to handle her, why did they make her have a child? Or is it possible that Luna managed to escape their control during her time in Adral?" Simond also found it strange.
Abigail pondered for a moment.
"If you want to approach Luna, you will have to gradually get closer to her. Perhaps then you will have a chance to uncover the true intentions of the mastermind behind the scenes," said Simond, leisurely sipping his coffee.
