“Dan is here too.” At the mention of Dan, Marie’s voice on the phone noticeably dulled.
Abraham immediately sensed something was off. “What happened?”
Marie had always been thick–skinned. Most things could not affect her mood. Even if something did, she would usually fuss and holler, never this subdued.
Marie said, “It’s nothing. Are you still on the cruise? I’ll come find you.”
Abraham replied, “I’m not there anymore.”
“Oh, then forget it. We’ll talk when you’re back in Falvaria Marie knew Abraham’s schedule was packed. Whenever he was abroad, his visits were brief and rushed.
This time, staying in Rivermount for so long was truly rare. Though, it was probably because of
Stella.
Abraham gave
gave a quiet “Mm” and reminded her, “Put yourself first. Always.”
“Got it. What about Stella? Is she with you?” Marie shifted the topic.
Abraham gave a light nod. “She is.”
Marie said, “Then you better keep a close eye on her. You know how Derrick is.”
At the mention of Derrick, Marie’s tone dipped again. Clearly, she was still upset about him kicking the Dawson family when they were down.
Abraham glanced at the obedient Stella beside him, his lips curving in indulgent amusement. “She’s smarter than you.”
What’s that supposed to mean?
Before she could ask, Abraham had already hung up.
Stella looked at him, all innocence. “Saying that about your sister…. careful, she’ll come for you.”
“What can she even do?” Abraham shrugged his shoulders and smiled.
Stella quirked a brow. “You’re underestimating her, aren’t you?”
Back in Pagena, Derrick had underestimated her too.
Just a moment ago….
Abraham noticed the red marks on her neck and lifted her chin for a better look. “Derrick did this?”

Abraham pinched her slim, soft waist. “Can’t even let you out of my sight for a second”
She had just left and Derrick had already taken her
Abraham spoke to Abel up front. “Some claws need cutting

away
Stella looked at Abraham puzzled “Claws? Are you going to cut off someone’s hand?”
Before she could finish Abraham tilted her chin and kissed her.
All her questions were drowned out by the man’s sudden dominance.
Stella had planned to resist, but when the partition between the front and back seats rose, she
knew resistance was futile
Up front. Abel was already on the phone. handling arrangements. Vincent and Gabe. Remove

Someone from over the phone answered. “Understood.”
Eddie’s brow twitched sharply. He looked at Abel who had just hung up. You’re pushing Derrick
into a corner.
Vincent and Gabe had been Derricks right and left hands for years. If they were removed. Derrick would absolutely lose it
Abel tossed his phone onto the dashboard. His tone was flat. “He’s touched Ms. Dawson twice”

The moment their eyes met. Eddie realized what he had just said and clutched his mouth. “Damn it… my stupid mouth…
A hand suddenly stretched from the back and smacked him on the head, hard.
It was Abraham. The partition had apparently come down at some point, and Eddie let out a yelp. “My bad, my bad! I know I was wrong!”
He was losing his mind. Why could his brain not keep up with his mouth this time?
Honestly though, when it came to Stella, Eddie had always felt that Abraham was the one who had snatched her away.
But Derrick was also impossible to read.
Stella and Abraham clearly had mutual feelings. Why was Derrick still trying to wedge himself between them? Did he think if he just kept showing up, she would suddenly marry him?
