Chapter 309 Out of Control
“I don’t know,” said Tessa coldly.
Even if I knew, I wouldn’t tell him.
Ethan paused. “If she comes back, please tell her I want to see her.”
Tessa snapped, “Ethan, who do you think you are? You want to see her? Do you even qualify anymore?”
She is now the beloved princess, raised by both the Scott and Dawson families in Falvaria.
Such a noble status–what did Ethan have to do with her anymore?
Ethan fell silent.

Even his breathing over the phone sounded strained and heavy.
Obviously, that one sentence, “You don’t qualify,” had shattered every last bit of superiority he once held over Stella.
It turned out that I’m the one who is never good enough in the first place…
And yet, back then, everyone looked down on Stella,
Tessa almost asked what had happened at the Reed mansion today, but then she thought, what did it matter to me?
Besides, Stella probably didn’t want to hear about the drama with Ethan anymore.
So she didn’t ask. She just hung up..
It wasn’t until she reached the airport that the conversation hit her again.
Ethan’s tone on the phone… was there a hint of sadness?
Maybe he wanted to see Stella not because of Lillian but because of something else?
Could the bastard actually regret it now?
“Stupid mutt.”
Even if he regretted it, it was far too late.
Meanwhile, on the plane, Abraham’s arm rested on the caging her in.

Eddie sat stiffly, feeling as if his legs were about to give out.

Abraham wasn’t human, anyone who dared make a joke about Stella was immediately on his bad side.
“But I didn’t even say anything bad,” Eddie muttered, feeling wronged.
Abraham looked up and shot him a cold stare. Eddie instinctively swallowed hard.
Stella didn’t say a word. She just kept her head down and ate, pretending Eddie didn’t exist.
Or rather, she couldn’t bear to look at him.
Victor took a sip of wine.
Abraham looked at Stella’s tiny mouth full of food and said indulgently, “Slow down, nobody’s stealing it from you.
Her mouth is originally small enough, and with so much of foods inside.
Her cheeks puffed out adorably, and a dark light flickered in his eyes…
He suddenly had a thought, but the next second he dismissed it.
He hadn’t even acted on it yet, but he already knew.
This little girl wouldn’t go along with it.
Stella had eaten a whole steak, a helping of pasta and a bowl of mashed corn. But she still didn’t seem full.
Her eyes drifted to the untouched ice cream in front of Abraham.
Eddie tried to stop himself, but he couldn’t. “Did Derrick really starve you that much?”
“Mmph-!”
Seriously, what’s wrong with that?
Eddie looked over, confused..
Was it wrong to ask if Stella was really that hungry?
Victor finished his wine in one gulp and gave Eddie a pitying look. “Ask what you want, but why drag Derrick into this?”
“I mean, wasn’t Stella starving when she was with him? Hey, by the way, is Derrick broke now?”
Broke enough that he couldn’t even afford food? Is that how Stella ended up like this?

“Don’t drag me into your death wish, thank you.”
This Eddie is insane. I’m really speechless.
Eddie shrugged. “I was just curious. He’s been hunted by your brother for years. Probably spent at fortune just to stay alive.
Stella lowered her head. ignoring him completely.
This Eddie, if the bruises on his legs had healed yet? Apparently he’d already forgotten how painful they
Maybe he is born to dig his own grave.
Stella was starving and craving everything.
But Abraham wouldn’t let her eat the ice cream. He was afraid it would upset her stomach.
She may complain about stomach pains later.
Finally, someone made her a pot of fruit tea. She hugged the oversized cup and drank half of it before finally feeling full.
“When do we leave?”
She looked up at Abraham
Just then. Abel walked over. “Mr. Abraham.”
Abraham looked at his watch. “When are we leaving?”
There was an incident at the airport. Some unknown force broke in, and now it’s total chaos.
Stella’s heart skipped a beat.
She looked at Abel in shock. “What do you mean by chaos?”
“Local law enforcement is clashing with this group. We need a little more time before we can leave.
