But Derrick’s punch never landed in her face. Instead, he grabbed Stella and pulled her away from the door, then kicked it open.
Sebastian rushed in.
The moment he saw Stella in the room, his eyes went wide in shock.
“You, you, you! Why is she here? Are you crazy? Did you kidnap her here?”
When he saw Stella, his first reaction was that he’d almost broken his legs running over.
Second, this was Abraham’s territory, and Abraham was still on the yacht.
Sure enough, wherever I followed Derrick was a gamble with my life.
Derrick glared at him. “Spineless.”
“I’m not as brave as you. You don’t even care about your life; how could I ever compare?”
He is going crazy.
Of all places to mess with Stella, why here, right under Abraham’s nose?
Last time in Seaflats Cove, at least we’d taken Stella and run. But this time…
“Then what are you still doing here? Shouldn’t you be running already?”
Stella was speechless when hearing this.
Are you all still planning to take me?
Derrick gave Sebastian a cold look. “And who says I have to run?”
“You’re messing with Ms. Dawson. What are you going to do, give her back the gift wrapped?” Sebastian said seriously.
…Derrick was speechless.
“I’m telling you, it’s either me or Stella in this place. If she’s here, I’m gone. If I’m here, she’s gone. One of us has to go.” Sebastian said.
Stella was speechless again.
Why does the first half of this sentence sound so strange?
“If she’s here, I’m gone.. Isn’t that usually said between two women?

“Let me tell you both. I’m not getting off this yacht if I die.”
Derrick and Sebastian both fell silent.
They both turned to look at her.

Sebastian gritted his teeth and stepped forward. “You brat. We still haven’t talked about the dog incident! I almost broke my leg: you owe me for that!”
Stella scoffed. “Too bad it didn’t break. Would have served you right.”
“You–you almost crippled me, and now you’re trying to kill Derrick too? If Abraham finds out you’re in his hands, it’s game over.
Stella snapped back. “It’s not like I threw myself at him. If anyone’s damned, it’s him for being an idiot.
Trying to manipulate me? Not a chance.
Sebastian was seeing stars with rage.
Derrick stepped up and grabbed him by the collar, then threw him out the door.
The door slammed shut with a bang, leaving only Stella and Derrick.
Derrick stormed towards her.
But the moment his eyes landed on the increasingly visible marks on her neck, his expression turned dangerous.
His gaze narrowed.
“I told you before. You’re my fiancée.”
Stella replied, “Just because you say so? What temperature was your mouth when you said that? Have you ever heard of the word ‘qualifications“?”
You…
Derrick exploded, grabbing her and dragging her straight into the bathroom.
“What the hell are you doing? Let go of me, you bastard!”
Stella kicked and punched him in anger.
Derrick threw her into the bathtub and pointed the showerhead at her, ready to turn it on.
You bastard, Derrick! Don’t you dare!”
He sneered. “You still have the nerve to threaten me? You really are something”

Stella snapped.

She grabbed the showerhead out of his hand and swung it at his head with all her strength.
The metal struck with a loud clang. Derrick felt like his brain was being rattled. The pain was immediate and sharp.
“You crazy woman…
Has she been eating chili peppers every day for years?
My head buzzed from the blow. She’s really trying to kill me.
Furious, he lunged at her.
But Stella wasn’t the type to sit still. She started to fight back. They wrestled, neither giving up.
Suddenly her phone started buzzing.
Stella’s eyes met Derrick’s sharp gaze. She held the phone defensively behind her back and rolled. her eyes at him.
“Who’s calling?” Derrick asked.
“None of your business, she snapped.
That damn girl really wasn’t afraid of death.
Maybe I’d been too gentle with her back in Falvaria.
Fine. Time to show her how ruthless I could be.
He stepped forward and pulled the dripping wet Stella into his arms. Immediately, she began to struggle madly.
“Let me go, you idiot! Let me go!”
