Chapter 32 It Is Not Too Late
Especially the dangerous look on Abraham.
At this moment, she was sitting on his lap again.
Abraham seemed to really like holding her, as if in his heart, she had never grown up.
But she had grown up, and had been an adult for a long time.
In his arms, however, what she felt was not the pampering he used to show her when she was a child.
At this moment, Abraham w
full of danger
Stella lowered her head, “Well, could you just ask directly?”
Dmn Ethan, I’ve already explained everything, but with him messing things up, it feels like everything I said earlier was in vain.
Abraham asked, “Were you protecting him just now?”
Does he mean I told Ethan to leave?
Stella shook her head. “No, I just didn’t want the place I’ve been living in for two years to get dirty.”
Abraham could kill. She had just felt the same kind of danger she had felt when he killed someone before.
Under his gentle exterior, there was a bloodthirsty heart like a wolf’s.
When she was 13, she was kidnapped. Abraham found her and killed all the kidnappers right in front of her.
Since then, she knew Abraham was not as gentle as he appeared.
When he became ruthless, human life was nothing to him.
If Ethan hadn’t left just now, Stella was sure Abraham would have killed him.
“In a place like Rivermount, you can’t break the law, Stella said softly.
Abraham iaughed. “Star, are you trying to lecture me?”
Stella pursed her lips!
“Anyway, I already told you why I was going to get engaged to Ethan back then. Just don’t go around killing people.”
People could have grudges, and any kind of revenge was fine, but directly taking a life wasn’t Even after being with Abraham for so many years, she was still afraid of having blood on her hands.
Feeling her body tense up, Abraham knew that the incident from years ago had left a significant psychological scar on her.
Otherwise, when the Tom family had threatened her, she wouldn’t have been so scared that she listened to their demands.
Thinking about the fear she had to endure, the coldness at the corner of Abraham’s mouth slowly faded, replaced by a gentle warmth like that of an older brother.
“Alright, I’ll listen to you and be a good citizen.”
Stella didn’t quite believe it.
Abraham ruffled her soft hair. “Do you v

Finished
“Where to?”
Stella instinctively glanced out the window. It was dark outside. Looking at the clock, it was already six o’clock!
It was still pretty dark in Rivermount at this time.
Abraham looked around the thousand–square–foot place, feeling a bit of a headache. He had given Stella plenty of money over the years, yet this was how she had taken care of herself.
Abel was called over by a phone call.
Stella was packed up and taken to Verdant Villa overnight.
Looking at the massive castle–like estate, she stared at Abraham in shock. “Is this yours?”
“It’s yours,” Abraham said.
It was indeed Stella’s, as the ownership of the estate was under her name.
Stella’s mouth twitched. “Mine?”
“Yeah, remember this place? You said you liked it before.”
Stella was left momentarily stunned.
She had said she liked many places, and she couldn’t quite recall saying she liked this one.
But in Rivermount, she had always known about this place.
Once, Ethan had known this estate was empty and had Jason investigate who the real owner was, even considering buying it.
However, despite Jason’s efforts, he never found out who owned the estate.
Now
that she knew it was hers, Stella was a little stunned.
“Are we going to live here next?”
Abraham nodded. “Yes, I need to deal with some things in Rivermount, so we’ll probably stay for a while.”
Stella just said “Oh
Since Abraham said he had business to attend to, she didn’t ask too many questions. She usually didn’t pry into his work.
And so, Stella moved to Verdant Villa.
When Abel took her to her room, he said, “This was originally a gift from Mr. Abraham for your coming of age. Although it wasn’t given to you on your 18th birthday, it’s not too late now.”
The words “coming of age” made Stella’s eyes water.
Abraham had said that for her coming–of–age gift, he would give her something she really wanted.
Before her father’s accident, her coming–of–age gift had already been in preparation, personally designed by Abraham.
But unfortunately…
She sighed inwardly and nodded. “Yeah, it’s not too late now.”
