It felt like she’d bitten into something dirty–Stella spat several times, then grabbed her water and rinsed her mouth.
Abraham’s gaze dimmed.
His tone also dropped. “Tell him it’s about his son; that takes priority.”
Abel went quiet. His son takes priority?
If Judson heard that, he’d probably want to beat Ethan to death. As if Ethan had anything better to do right now.
He was all wrapped up with Lillian, and the only urgent thing on his plate was this Verdant Villa situation.
Speaking of Ethan, Abel couldn’t help but sigh. “How did Mr. Keene end up with a son like that? If he’s gonna be a playboy, at least pick someone decent. He’s basically trying to wipe out the Keene bloodline.”
And Lillian’s character–based on what they’d dug up, the kind of woman Ethan fell for was honestly beyond words.
Abraham let out a quiet laugh. “Which is exactly why Mr. Keene should be focusing on his son right now.”
Abel caught Abraham’s meaning instantly. Scheming, as always.
Those people–Abraham might’ve looked indifferent on the surface, but after how they’d treated Stella all these years, there was no way he’d let it slide.
Abel nodded. Tll go respond to him right away.”
Abel left.
Abraham beckoned to the butler lurking in the shadows. The butler stepped forward respectfully. “Mr. Abraham.”
“Fire everyone in the kitchen today.”
The butler stiffened at those words.
“Understood.”
Abraham walked toward the dining room. Stella had nearly finished eating: Abraham glanced down at the wad of tissue with what she’d spat out.
“Didn’t like it?”
There were pebbles in it.”
The butler, who’d followed Abraham in, felt his heart seize. At that moment, he figured the kitchen staff totally deserved to be fired.
Everyone knew Abraham had incredibly high standards for food–especially when it came to what Stella ate. Stella, of course, had no idea that her casual honesty just doomed an entire kitchen staff.
“You heading out?” she asked.
Abraham nodded. “The Reed family’s probably in chaos by

now.
Of course, if they were smart enough to figure out what was really going on, they’d come looking for Stella.

Because that morning, sheld woken up and seen a huge clump of hair on her pillow; her heart was already on the verge of collapse.

Stella replied: “You’re not scared I’ll show chis message to Ethan?”
Lillian replied: “Go ahead!”
That phone number wasn’t even her. When it came down to it, just be Ethan choosing whether to believe her or Stella.
Stella texted: “Wanna bet 140,000 dollars you won’t move into Verdant Villa.”
If Lillian wanted to show off so badly, then – Salu would play along What fun is there in flaunting something without a muger!
On the other end of the call, Lillian saw Setla’s massage and immedinely shopped breathing for a second.
A flash of malice passed through her eyes…
