The Spare Wife

The next morning, Abigail came to the hospital, and Howard called. Abigail took the call anyway, and she said coldly, “What is it?”

“I came back. Leap Gaming wouldn’t agree to my request. Do you really want Fairy Meadow to be embroiled in a scandal?” Howard sounded exhausted. He didn’t sleep well, obviously.

“Do you think this has anything to do with me, Howard? I didn’t tell you to fall for that. scam. If a scandal does blow up, you’re the only one who’s going to get the brunt of criticism.
