Chapter 334 Don’t Lay a Finger on the Little Princess.
Reese had been Stella’s best friend in high school back in Falvaria. They were close.
But during their second year, Reese had left school for reasons unknown. They never got back in touch.
Judging by Derrick’s words just now, it sounded like Reese’s disappearance had something to do with Abraham?
Abraham reached over and ruffled her hair. “Eat your cookie.”
Something wasn’t right. Something was definitely not right. Derrick’s tone just now… Something was off.
Stella was alarmed.
Meeting her probing gaze, Abraham pulled her into his lap. “You like meddling in other people’s business?”
“No, but Derrick.” Stella wanted to ask more about Reese.
Abraham’s voice was low. “Is Derrick’s opinion worth your attention?”
That’s not the point, is it?
“Fine, fine, I won’t ask.” Seeing Abraham’s expression turning cold, Stella gave up, but secretly, she had another plan.
Forget it. I’ll look into it myself.
Stella nibbled on her cookie, feigning nonchalance. As if she did not care at all. Abraham’s dark eyes softened just a bit.
He kissed her on the forehead. “Good girl.”
Stella shifted topics, “Where are we going now?”
“Rivermount.” Abraham answered shortly.
Stella felt reluctant. “Again?”
She really did not want to go back to Rivermount. She hated that place. The city and the people, it all rubbed her the wrong way.
Abraham chuckled and pinched her nose affectionately. “Just two or three days. Then we’re heading back to Falvaria.”
Hearing that, Stella’s reluctance lessened. “Really?”

Stella gave a light nod. “Alright then.”
Hearing they would only be there briefly, she let out a breath of relief.

Heaven knows, Rivermount just felt all wrong to her. Every time she thought of it, unease settled deep in her bones. Right now, all she wanted was to go home.
To the place where she grew up.
“Is Marie here too?” Stella asked.
Abraham hummed. “But now’s not the best time for you to see her.
He knew she missed Marie but gently put that thought to rest.
Maric had come with Dan this time, and from the way she spoke, something did not sound quite right.
After a moment’s thought, Abraham still decided to look into it. “Abel.”
“Yes, Mr. Abraham.” Abel immediately responded.
Abraham ordered, “Send someone to check on Marie.
That girl was strong in every way but apparently not immune to falling head over heels.
From the intel he had, Dan now was not the same man Marie had once known.
Abel nodded. “Understood.”
Meanwhile, with Derrick…
His knuckles turned white as he gripped his phone. Finally, he hurled it away in rage.
On the operating table, Sebastian was sweating from pain. “Aahhh! If I’d known it’d turn out like this, I never would’ve come with you!”
Derrick shot him a cold glance.
Sebastian instantly deflated. “I’ve told you. If you want something, just take it. Steal it if you must. But don’t lay a finger on the little princess.”
Touching Stella was like dancing on Abraham’s last nerve.
Being hunted for two years was bad enough.
Now with Vincent and Gabe gone too… It was clear that Abraham did not just get angry anymore.

Soon, the group returned to the airport.
Victor had already arrived and quickly reunited with Abraham.

Abraham answered a call, and whatever he heard made his expression darken immediately. He hung up and turned to Victor. “You need to return to Falvaria immediately.”
Victor asked, “Did something happen?”
Abraham looked alarmed. “The Dawne family has been acting up again. He bought a batch of weapons from Kealis Island and smuggled the
into Falvaria.”
Victor’s eyes narrowed sharply.
He rose to his feet, his imposing frame radiating danger. The half–visible tattoo beneath his shirt collar made him look even more threatening.
He was strikingly handsome, but everything about him screamed danger.
He liked curvy women, but he had never shown a hint of softness to any of them.
No wonder Tessa had been terrified back then… With that kind of presence, who would not be?
Victor adjusted his suit. “I’ll go back and clean them out.”
If they don’t behave, I’ll then teach them to.
Abraham agreed, though he offered a token reminder. “Don’t go full bandit.”
Eddie secretly mocked… You just told him to raid them, and now you’re saying not to act like a bandit? How fake can you be?
Victor had just left when Stella got a call from Tessa. As soon as she answered, she asked, “Did Rebecca kick Lilian out of the Reed family?”
Because really… If Tessa was calling, it could only mean one thing. Gossip!
Either about the Keene family. or the Reed family.
