Especially seeing her about to cry like that–he just wanted to throw her out.

Meanwhile, Stella was having breakfast. The kitchen had made her favorite chicken congee. But something about the smell felt off. She turned to Clint and asked, “Is there any millet porridge?”
Millet porridge… Abraham liked that. He preferred milder flavors. Clint replied, “Sir had some earlier. There should be a bit left.”
“Then give me that.” She pushed the chicken porridge congee, clearly uninterested in eating it.
Clint quickly had a servant bring her the millet porridge. She used to dislike this kind of porridge, but right now, it tasted surprisingly good. She had only taken two sips when a call from Tessa came in.
“Tessa.”
“Star, please save me.”
Stella froze. Just being around Victor had made her so timid? Where is the Tessa who used to have attitude? Bring it back. Now she was as skittish as a kitten.
Tessa whimpered, “Victor’s taking me somewhere, and he said it could be dangerous. Star, save me. I never want to go through something like that again.”
Just thinking about the two incidents she had already experienced made her feel overwhelmed.
Stella asked, “Where’s he taking you?”
It seemed like every place Victor went was risky. No wonder Tessa was having a hard time.
Tessa said, “I don’t know. But if he says he’ll guarantee my safety, then obviously it is dangerous, right?
Stella didn’t reply.
Tessa pleaded, “Star, when are you coming back to Falvaria? I’m going crazy.”
At this rate, even if Victor didn’t kill her, she’d probably lose her mind from fear.
Stella replied, “I don’t have a set date. Don’t worry too much.”
“I’m not worried. I’m terrified.”
Stella stayed quiet.

Stella said, “Do you want me to have someone come pick you up?”
To take me to the Dawson residence?”

“Aside from the Dawson residence, where else would be safe? Even the international airport in Falvaria had an incident. You haven’t been safe since you left the country.”
Tessa didn’t respond. That was true. But thinking about the rumors surrounding Evelyn… Living under the same roof as someone like that made her nuts too.
“Star, when are you coming back?” She just wanted to be with her Star. She didn’t care about anyone else.
Stella asked. “If I come back, will you go to the Dawson residence with me?”
“What? You don’t have your own place here?” Why did it have to be the Dawson residence? Tessa was going to lose her mind.
Stella replied. “I do.”
“Then can’t we stay there instead?” She really didn’t want to deal with someone as intimidating as Evelyn. The pressure would be unbearable.
Stella asked, “Are you sure?”
Tessa froze. Wait, not sure.
“If we do that, your brother will probably want to skin me alive. Never mind.”
Abraham from Falvaria was Evelyn’s pride and joy. She couldn’t afford to forget that. One couldn’t mess with Evelyn, but one definitely couldn’t mess with Abraham either. Only now did
Tessa fully realize just who Stella had behind her–people one couldn’t afford to offend, s
without even realizing it, she had somehow become best friends with the inner circle?
Her mother was a powerhouse, her brother a force of nature, and her bestie… basically a big deal.

Stella laughed. “Alright, we’ll figure it out when I get back.”
“Ugh!” Tessa felt utterly hopeless.
Stella said, “Actually, Mr. Victor is very reliable. Since he promised to help you investigate everything, we should trust him.”
“Don’t worry. He won’t make things hard for you.”
Stella fully trusted Abraham’s judgment. Since Abraham had said Victor wouldn’t harm Tessa, then Tessa was safe with him.
Tessa went silent. Hearing Stella say Victor wouldn’t make things hard for her made her want to

“He is making things hard for me.”
“Huh?”
“He threatened me.”
“Impossible. Mr. Victor isn’t like that. Don’t feel that way.”
Tessa exploded inside.
