Derrick said he wanted things, but in fact, every time he just wanted to find Stella.
For the past two years, he had been chased all over the world by Abraham. And all the while, he kept his eyes on him. Whenever he got word that Abraham had found Stella, he could not help but rush to Rivermount.
But this time? It was outrageous….
There was no reason to mess with Stella. And
yet…
Derrick lit a cigarette and took a slow drag, staying silent.
Sebastian said, “You know she’s already Abraham’s woman, right?”
Derrick’s hand, holding the cigarette, paused in midair.
Seeing his silence, Sebastian understood. Derrick knew everything. “If you knew, why can’t you let go?”
Derrick took another drag, then let out a cold laugh. But he did not say anything more.
Sebastian sighed, “It’s no use, you know. That girl’s always been on Abraham’s side. Let’s be real. They’re in love, and you….”
“In love?” Derrick’s icy voice cut him off mid–sentence.
Sebastian’s mouth twitched. “Aren’t they?”
“Abraham is a shameless bastard,” Derrick growled.
Seeing Derrick’s reaction, Sebastian did not know what to say.
All right, all right… This guy’s completely possessed. No way he’s thinking rationally. Better not bring up Stella anymore. This whole thing it’ll never be sorted out in this lifetime.
Shifting topics, he asked, “So what now?”
They had been duped again. The thing was not even with Bernie.
He continued, “And I beg you, don’t go near the little princess when Abraham’s around.”
Not to mention how sharp–tongued that girl is; his own leg nearly got crippled this time.
In Sebastian’s opinion, sometimes you just cannot tempt fate.
Derrick shot him a cold glare. That one look was enough to shut Sebastian up.

Looks like this living devil really has fallen for Stella. So this is what they mean by one–sided affection.”
Just when Sebastian thought the conversation was over. Derrick spoke coldly. “She’ll cry eventually.”
Sebastian’s brows twitched. “Abraham never lets her cry.”
Derrick sneered. That sneer was full of dark implications. sending a sharp pang through Sebastian’s chest. “Send someone to check out the boxing match.”
“Check what?” Sebastian did not understand.
Derrick said, “Her fiancé in Rivermount.”
Sebastian’s face twitched hard….
No way. Are they all trying to die? Wasn’t Ethan supposed to be in Hong Kong? Don’t tell me he’s on this cruise too?
Although the cruise was technically under Stella’s name. Marie had been managing her assets these past two years. And this massive cruise ship, leaving it idle, would have been a waste, so Marie had rented it out.
The rental fees went straight into Stella’s account.
Stella had not had much to do with Falvaria lately; she probably did not even know how much money was in her account.
The Reed family really suffered a huge loss. They had managed to lose a golden goose like her.
Sebastian frowned. “Didn’t her fiancé in Rivermount have a first love? What’s he doing here?”
Maybe he just realized how good the little princess was? But she was hard to please, spoiled to the core, full of tricks and danger. What was the appeal?
Derrick took another drag, thinking about how Ethan had spent two years at Stella’s side in that role. That alone had him radiating menace again.
Meanwhile..
Abraham had already gotten Stella on the plane.
As soon as they boarded, she locked herself in the bathroom.
Abraham was on a call for almost half an hour, and she still had not come out. Frowning, he knocked on the door. “Stella”
“Yes?” Stella answered, but her voice carried a hint of pain.

Stella rejected it. “No. I’ll be out in a bit.”

“You’ve been in there too long,” he said in a low voice. Then he added, “Are you not feeling well?”
Stella said, “Just wait a moment.”
There was clearly discomfort in her voice.
After another five minutes of shuffling and hesitation, Stella finally exited the bathroom.
Abraham had been waiting outside the whole time. The moment the door opened, he saw her pale little face.
She had even taken a shower, wrapped in a bathrobe.
