Chapter 312 Possessive Hearts
Victor’s eyes turned sharp.
In one swift motion, he wrapped an arm around Tessa’s waist, and gunfire rang out. The two men crumpled to the ground.
It all happened so fast that Tessa’s pupils contracted. She clung to Victor’s neck for dear life. Her legs wrapped tightly around his waist..
Victor carried her back to the corner and pinned her against the cold wall.
Feeling the weight around his waist, he spat two cold words: “Get off me.”
“No! I won’t! I won’t! I want to go home… I want to go home… Tessa shook her head frantically, eyes squeezed shut, refusing to get off him no matter what.
Victor’s chilling presence, along with the dangerous aura radiating off him, wrapped around her like a net.
Tessa prayed to her great–grandmother in her heart.
Please, please let me live through this.
Victor reached out, ready to pry her off him by force. But the moment he did, Tessa collapsed onto the ground like jelly.
Her legs had completely given out.
Tessa kept thinking about Stella. “I…I need Stella. I want to go back to the plane and find Stella.”
All that brave talk earlier about not dragging Stella down is gone. She had broken down completely. The only thought left in her mind was that Stella’s side was the safest place in the world.
Victor looked down at the trembling girl curled up on the floor and rubbed his forehead in
frustration.
He grabbed her by the arm and hauled her to her feet. Then he slung her over his waist and walked off without a word.
Dangling like a rag doll, Tessa swayed with each step, feeling dizzy and too afraid to utter a sound. Because right now, the man carrying her was more dangerous than the thugs.
Eddie had not planned to excuse himself until Abel warned him that staying might earn him another beating.
Stella still in Abraham’s arms asked “Why are you angry?”

She looked at his not–so–pleasant expression, completely clueless as to what she had done wrong.
He had not been exactly gentle with her on the way back from Pagena.
Abraham cupped her chin and kissed her. As their lips tangled, his voice remained gentle but with a touch of dominance: “Next time, don’t stare at someone for more than five seconds.
What? Who had I stared at? Tessa?
Stella asked, “Does Tessa count too?”
Abraham answered, “She counts.”
For real?
The plane took off.
Stella, drained from Abraham’s kisses, asked weakly, “Are we really not waiting for Victor?”
She was worried about whether Tessa had made it out of the airport safely.
Who the hell had the guts to stir up trouble here? At the airport, of all places?
Abraham simply carried her into the lounge. “You need to sleep now. Once we get to Kealis Island, there’s no guarantee your schedule will stay normal.”
Sleep again?
Abraham had already taken off his suit jacket. Next came his shirt. Then his pants.
Stella’s mouth twitched, but she did not move.
Abraham turned around and saw her frozen. His lips curled into a mischievous smile that made her heart tighten.
When he reached for her to start undressing her, she quickly grabbed his wrist. “I don’t feel like sleeping anymore.”
She remembered how much he had tormented her on the way back.
Sure, she was tired. But not tired enough to sleep with him…
Stella was starting to realize that her definition of ‘sleep‘ and his were not the same at all.
Abraham’s hand paused on the buttons of her vest. When she did not let go, he looked down at her. Then how about we do something else?”
See? I knew it! We weren’t even close to the same page.
Abraham chuckled lowly “Relay lust sleeping”

Abraham raised an eyebrow. “Hm?”
Stella gave him a timid glance. “Okay, fine. But I’m sleeping alone.”
That wicked grin on Abraham’s lips deepened.
Stella hurried to the bed and dove under the covers, but the next second, he climbed in after her.
He reached out and pulled her into his arms.
Outside, Eddie heard the muffled sounds coming from the lounge and clicked his tongue. “Abraham waited a long time for little Stella to grow up. Makes sense. Totally understandable.”
Abel glanced at him. “You may understand, but keep your mouth shut.”
“I am keeping it shut. I’m just saying, once they’re back in Falvaria, Stella’s probably in for a rough time. Eddie said.
Abel did not understand what Eddie meant.
You mean… Madam Lorette?
Abel looked at Eddie. “Madam Lorette’s already having people prepare the wedding.”
Eddie’s eyes
widened. “What did you say?
Preparing the wedding? Madam Lorette? Wait, seriously? She’s accepted it? Wouldn’t she at least try to break up Abraham and Stella?
