Chapter 274 I Did Not Mean It!
“I didn’t do it on purpose. Tessa explained,
What kind of mess did I get myself into today!
Victor stood up and calmly straightened his slightly messy clothes. His face didn’t look good. Without a word, he turned and walked back inside.
Abraham saw Stella coming out and frowned. “What are you doing out here? It’s freezing, and you’re barely wearing anything.
“I saw you weren’t coming in. so I came to check, Stella said as she walked toward Tessa. Tess, what’s wrong?”
Tessa’s face was already completely red. She stood up in a panic and, before Stella could get close, blurted. “I… I’m leaving now. Bye.
ike she
She didn’t dare meet Stella’s eyes and ran off like she was escaping a disaster.
Stella was totally confused.
Kimmy quickly followed after her. She suddenly felt that everyone around Stella was way too dangerous. That man just now looked like he was ready to kill someone
Eddie looked at Stella and grinned mischievously. “Star, your friend is pretty fierce.”
“What do you mean, fierce?” Stella asked.
“She almost pulled Victor’s pants down, hahaha!”
Stella’s eyes widened.
Tessa hadn’t gone far. When she heard what Eddie said, she stumbled and almost fell to the ground again.
Victor turned and looked at Eddie. That look alone could’ve sliced him.
It was the first time he had shown such a dangerous expression. He used to be just as reckless as Eddie.
Stella’s mouth twitched. She glanced at Tessa’s retreating figure, then at Abraham.
“She’s definitely not that kind of person.”
Abraham ruffled her hair and said, “You believe anything Eddie says?”
Stella glared at Eddie. “With that mouth, you’re going to be single for life.”
She had never met anyone as blunt as Eddie. It was unbelievable.
I
“Hey, I didn’t say anything wrong. I was just telling the truth,” Eddie said.
Tessa really just nearly pulled Victor’s pants down in front of everyone.
“It was slippery and she lost her balance Victor just happened to be close. Okay?” Stella replied.
Even without being there, she could guess most of what happened..
When someone’s falling, their hands instinctively try to grab onto something. Tessa just happened to grab something
Unusual.
Eddie still wanted to say more, but Abraham gave him a look. “Do you think it’s safe to joke about Victor?”
“And yet you still said too much,” Stella shot back.
He was the kind of guy who could make people want to vanish from embarrassment with just one sentence.
Eddie gave Stella a weird look and shut his mouth.
Fine. I should just keep my mouth shut.
Once inside. Stella’s slippers were soaked. Abraham glanced at the butler. “Why wasn’t the entrance cleaned properly?”
There had still been ice on the ground when they got out of the car.
The butler’s face stiffened with fear. “Mr. Abraham. L.”
Stella tugged lightly on Abraham’s sleeve. “They did clean it earlier. It’s just too cold outside.
Hearing her speak up, the butler looked at Stella gratefully.
She was right. They had cleaned the area just half an hour ago. In fact, they’d been clearing snow all day.
Just like Stella said, because of the low temperatures and constant snowfall, the ground froze again quickly.
Abraham looked down at Stella’s feet. “Change your shoes.”
“Okay,” Stella nodded sweetly.
A servant quickly brought her a dry pair of slippers
Abraham and Victor still had things to discuss and went straight to the study
Just as Stella was about to head upstairs, Tessa called. Over the phone, she was crying her eyes out.
“I know you didn’t do it on purpose. I just don’t know if Victor feels the same way,” Stella said.
“What? What do you mean?”
Tessa felt like she was going to lose her mind. She had never been this embarrassed in her life.
“Anyway, next time you see him, you’d better take a different route, Stella warned.
That man who seemed carefree was actually very dangerous.
“What? I didn’t mean it Did I seriously offend him that badly? Star, you have to help me put in a good word!” Tessa pleaded.
She could tell, none of the men around Stella were easy to deal with.
Jonathan had even ended up in the hospital with a gunshot wound.
“Alright, I got it,” Stella said. “But you probably won’t run into them again anyway.”
She’d say something nice on Tessa’s behalf, but she and Abraham were heading back to Falvaria soon.
