Chapter 153 Strawberries and Scars
Louis was speechless. Not petty!
He thought Abraham was extremely petty–especially when it came to Stella.
Sharon had just argued with her, and Abraham reacted like that. And they dared say he wasn’t petty

After sending Louis oll, Abel returned to Abraham’s side. “Sir”
“He gone?”
Abel nodded. “Yes”
“What do you think of him?” Abraham’s tone was calm but heavy.
Abel considered it. “Compared to others, Mr. Louis is actually a solid choice.”
“Then he’s the one.” Abraham said coldly.
Abel nodded in agreement. Louis as a good candidate. Most importantly–he was ruthless
He might seem laid–back, but anyone who’d watched the Parker family’s internal war would know–he was more than ruthless enough.
Abraham glanced at the time on his watch. It was lunchtime. He dialed Stella’s number.
“Abraham,”
“I’m coming to get you.”
The moment he spoke to Stella, all the coldness in his voice disappeared, replaced by gentle warmth.
Stella said, “Huh? Didn’t I tell you I was having lunch with Tessa?
“Cancel”
The two simple words were warm, but unmistakably commanding.
Stella pouted on her end. “Fine.”
“I’ll take
you
somewhere fun to cat
Fun?” Stella blinked. Since when is food funt
What could that even mean?
Her curiosity kicked in. “Then hurry up and get me.”
Food that was both delicious and fun? Who could say no to that? Stella certainly couldn’t.
Abraham chuckled and hung up after a soft “Mm.”
Stella immediately called Tessa. “My brother says he’s taking me somewhere fun to eat. Don’t come.”
Tessa was silent for a moment. Seriously!

About thirty minutes later. Abraham arrived.
Stella came downstairs.
As soon as she stepped out of the office building, she saw his signature car parked not far away.
She instinctively headed toward it, but a sudden grip on her wrist made her stop It was Ethan.
Stella’s expression instantly darkened. “What are you doing?”
Seriously? This guy’s still haunting me?
Ethan looked furious. “What will it take for Eddie and Rianne to come back? What do they want from you?”
Stella blinked. This lunatic again.
Ethan tightened his grip on her wrist. “Talk, What do you want?”
Susan had said Stella tricked her into signing the severance agreement but never followed through. Ethan couldn’t take it

Seeing he was still hung up on Eddie and Rianne, Stella immediately lost all patience.
She yanked her wrist free. “Let go, you psycho.”
“Stella”
“Yelling again? Who the hell are you yelling at? You think I’m your mom?”
Ethan’s teeth clenched. This woman!
Stella said. “Did Susannot explain things to you? And you still have the nerve to come pester me?”
Ethan snapped, “She’s your mom!”
“Fine, then I’m your grandma, how about that?” Stella rolled her eyes.
Ethan froze,
This tevoowan…!
Stella continued, “We signed the severance agreement. Do you even know what that means?”
“She’s still your mother! How can you-
“Oh, shut up already. If your brain’s fried, go get it checked. Want me to knock it back into place?”
She raised her hand and smacked Ethan on the forehead–hard.
Ethan’s brain buzzed. The blow had his skull ringing and his temper boiling over.

Their eyes locked-and that’s when Ethan saw it.
He noticed the swelling on her lips. The marks peeking out from under her scarf.
His brain exploded with a deafening buzz, his pupils practically shattered.
He reached out and yanked off the scarf around her neck–and was met with a cluster of hickeys.
