I Want a Divorce by Nadia Gordon

Chapter 40
The next day.
When Abigail woke up, she found that the person who was sleeping beside
her had left already.
“Oh, Abigail. You’re awake.” After hearing the sound of the bedroom door
opening, Ana lise got up from the couch and headed into the kitchen to warm
up her granddaughter’s breakfast.
“Where’s Sean?” Abigail combed through her disheveled hair with her fingers.
The pair of leather shoes by the door was missing.
“Sean went out to buy breakfast and left right after. Before he left, he said to
remind you to have your breakfast when you wake up.”
Ana lise brought out a hearty sandwich and a glass of warm milk from the
kitchen. Then, she looked at Abigail expectantly. “How are things going with
you two?”
Well, the sun must’ve risen from the west this morning today. The
cold-blooded businessman has learned how to take care of someone else.
Ana lise had to repeat her question before Abigail snapped out of her
thoughts. She bit down on the sandwich and muttered, “Well… same old
same old.”
“Look at how well Sean takes care of you. You’ve been married for three years
now. When are you two going to have a baby…”
Upon seeing that Ana lise was about to start urging her to have a baby again,
Abigail downed the glass of milk and ran to the door with the sandwich in
hand.
“I’m going to be late for work, Grandma. I’ll get going now. Take good care of
yourself. I’ll come home at noon to make you lunch.”

Abigail grabbed her purse from the hallway and opened the door.
“Abigail! Why, this girl.” Ana lise quickly called out to Abigail, but as Abigail
closed the door, her voice was cut off.
Abigail took a deep breath before driving to her office.
As soon as she opened the door to the studio, Luna came up to her. “Just in
time, Abigail. I was just about to call you and ask you why you weren’t
responding to my texts.”
“What’s the matter?”
Abigail put her bag away and eyed an excited Luna curiously.
“Take a look at Twitter yourself.”
Luna waved her phone. She couldn’t hide her excitement.
Puzzled, Abigail checked Twitter, only to find that the official announcement
from the production team of Top Designer had topped the trending list. It was
even labeled as the hottest news.
She glanced through the announcement. It was a brief statement
announcing the fact that Alana would be joining the panel as a special guest,
as well as a summary of the program.
“Did you see it, Abigail? Our studio is on the trending list too!”
Luna shook Abigail by the shoulders in exhilaration. The two of them had
sla ved away night after night so that the studio could achieve such success.
Abigail patted Luna on the shoulder before checking the comments.
The commenters left mixed feedback regarding the special guest.
‘This studio isn’t an international brand, right? I don’t think I’ve heard of them
before.’
‘I bought an evening gown from L.Moon before! They have exquisite designs
and my gown flowed beautifully. Looking forward to the program!’
‘I heard that Alana’s designs are all one of a kind. She never repeats any of
her designs. Let me see just how great of a designer she is.’
The comments were divided. L.Moon was a high-end brand with a niche
following, but they were now able to get their name out there to the masses
with the help of the program. If they could seize this chance to promote the
brand well, their reputation would surely soar to even greater heights.
Once Abigail was done reading through Twitter, Luna piped up with sparkling
eyes, “If we can successfully raise L.Moon’s profile this time, we’ll be buried in
new orders…”
Looks like you’re imagining yourself being buried in money already, Abigail
thought to herself.
“By the way, don’t forget to log into Alana’s Twitter account and respond to
the announcement.”
Amid her glee, Luna didn’t forget about work.
“Oh. That’s right.” Abigail switched to the Twitter account that belonged to
Alana. As she got ready to respond to the announcement, she started
reading it more seriously.
Immediately, she noticed something.
A familiar name was listed second in the official list of selected models.
“Did Kevin tell you that Joan is one of the main models?”
After a moment of silence, Abigail showed her screen to Luna.
