Chapter 278 Turns Out to Be a Loser
Abigail returned home with her heart filled with worry.
She opened the door and looked into the living room.
However, her expression immediately turned cold when she saw the person sitting in the living
room.
“Who permitted you to come to my house?!” Abigail questioned Chad angrily.
Upon hearing her shout, Analise swiftly ran out of the kitchen. Looking at Chad, who was smiling gently, and then at Abigail, she asked with a look of incomprehension, “What’s wrong?”
“Grandma, you shouldn’t let strangers in when I’m not home!” Abigail walked to Analise and pulled the elderly woman to stand behind her, protecting her from Chad.

anger.
“Mr. Lancome, I suggest you leave my house now. Otherwise, don’t blame me for attacking you!” Abigail wasn’t in the mood to make small talk with him at all. In fact, her tone of voice was so frosty that it surprised Analise a little.
After all, this was Analise’s first time seeing Abigail wholly on guard like this.
“I know Mr. Lancome. He lives in this complex. Not only that, he was the one who asked me to bring you a cake yesterday, so stop speaking so harshly to him,” Analise kindly explained while tugging on Abigail’s sleeve.
“Grandma-” Abigail nearly blurted out the truth but eventually held back.
Then, she took a deep breath and added, “Grandma, why don’t you go to the kitchen while I and have a chat with him?”

Meanwhile, Chad watched them like a cunning fox, the wheels in his mind turning incessantly.
“Okay.” Analise turned around and entered the kitchen.
After that, Abigail walked to the door and shouted at Chad through gritted teeth, “Come out!”
Only then did he leisurely walk out of the house and follow her to the downstairs of the apartment complex. Looking at the fuming Abigail, he mocked, “I thought you would always be so sure of victory before I came over. My, my, it turns out that you, too, have moments when you feel so anxious.”
“Grandma is my family member. Of course, I am anxious. As for you, you don’t have a sense of shame and have become someone’s lackey, eh?” Abigail countered coldly.

The complacent smile on Chad’s face faded slightly after he heard that. “Ms. Quinn, insulting guests isn’t what a lady would do.”
“What does it matter to you whether Lam a lady or not? Stop educating me on how to be a woman. A sc*mbag like you isn’t worthy of that position.” Abigail cast him a piercing look.
This lackey of Kelly really has crossed the line!
“Ms. Quinn, it’s just a thousand pearls. Think about your grandmother. You still have to manage “Ms. Quinn, its just a thousand pearls. Think abou L.Moon well to support her. Her health deteriorates year after year. Surely, you need to spend money on plenty of things.” Chad folded his arms across his chest and spoke in a condescending demeanor.

Upon hearing that, Chad looked at her with disdain. “So what if you find out? Ms. Quinn, you’d best heed my advice and not go against the heiress of Capitalis.”
After a momentary pause, he continued, “How about this? You can name any price you want for the pearls. Regardless of how much, the amount of money you receive will be enough for you to live the rest of your life with your grandmother. But if you go against a rich young lady such as the heiress of Capitalis, not only will you be miserable, but you may also involve your grandmother in this matter.”
Abigail turned down his offer as she stared him down. “I’m only going to tell you this once–I will undoubtedly skin you alive if you cross the line like you did today. Sure, go ahead and be as proud as you want now, but if I ever see you showing up in this complex again, I will hire someone to beat you to the point you are immobilized! I dare you to try it if you don’t believe
me!”
With that, she immediately left.
Chad squinted his eyes and watched as she left. Moments after, he snorted coldly. “How undiscriminating!”
After that, he turned around, and just as he was about to leave, he got punched in the face.
“Argh!” Chad cried out in pain. Before he could respond, he was kicked hard in the stomach again, causing him to stagger and fall to the ground.
Cameron stepped forward, lifted him by the collar, and dragged the barely conscious Chad
toward Sean’s car.
Meanwhile, Sean sat in the car with one hand resting on the window. Although his demeanor
