The Spare Wife

Chapter 198 I Can’t See Through You

Once Abigail got ahold of the box, she didn’t open it right away but looked at Sean with an inquisitive glance..

“Why are you looking at me like that?” Sean asked.

Abigail touched the box while asking him, “Do you know how much the thing inside here costs?”

“How much?” Sean didn’t care about what that thing was worth. All he cared about was who she would be giving it to. In addition, he knew her character well. To her, practicality held more value than anything expensive.

“150 thousand,” Abigail replied.

He quickly recalled that she had asked him for 150 thousand. So, Sean suddenly felt slightly curious about what was in the box and why she was willing to pay 150 thousand for it.

What is it? Did you buy it for your grandmother?” Sean’s gaze landed on the box.

Alas, Abigail didn’t reply. Instead, she held the box in her arms and got under the covers.

After Sean finished washing up, he lay down beside Abigail. But just as he hugged her, she turned around and placed something around his neck.

“What’s this?” Sean touched the thing.
