PopularNovel2/2 Chapter 433 Treading Carefully Chapter 433 Treading Carefully +5 Free Coins Louis let out a dry laugh. “Uh, seriously-it's not about the deal. I won't bother Ms. Stella with any business stuff again." He was doing everything he could to clean up the bad impression he'd left.
Abraham narrowed his eyes. "Oh?" He pulled a cigarette from his case, lit it, took a slow drag, and looked at Louis with that sice-cold stare. Louis swallowed hard. "I just cbecause of what happened at the mall. I was worried Sharon might've hurt Ms. Stella, so I thought I should ccheck in person." Abraham said flatly, "You could've calledfirst." Yeah, no kidding. Like I'd dare call you out of the blue, Louis thought.
That was exactly why he showed up in person instead.
But hearing Stella explain things... well, her version lined up almost perfectly with Sharon's.
He hadn't believed Sharon when she first told him. After all, given her past issues with Stella-thanks to Lilian-he had to get to the bottom of it.
"I just didn't want any friendly fire," Louis muttered.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAbraham raised a brow. "Hmm?" "I mean-I didn't want Ms. Stella to get hurt." Louis was getting more nervous by the second.
He'd been at the top of the food chain in Rivermount for years. He'd seen all kinds of people. But Abraham? Abraham radiated a kind of pressure that made him flinch.
Maybe it was because he was Falvaria's underground arms king-the kind of man who'd definitely gotten blood on his hands.
Yeah. Definitely not someone you wanted to mess with.
If it weren't for that rare mineral being so hard to source, he would've stayed a mile away from Abraham. Abraham asked, "So you got it all cleared up?" Louis nodded. "Yeah, it's clear now." As long as Sharon didn't lay a hand on Stella, everything was fine. That brat had shown srare smarts for once.
If she'd acted on impulse and joined Jasmine in laying a finger on Stella, it would've been gover. Thank god she'd kept it together.
The way Abraham had annihilated the Wilde family recently? Yeah, Louis had been living in a constant state of panic.
Meanwhile, on Stella's side- Abel had just brought over the snacks Abraham bought her.
He warmed them up and said, "Mr. Abraham thought they were really cute, so he picked them out for you." Stella took a bite. "Mm, this little kitty one is so good." The snacks had been made in the shape of little animals. She had to admit-whoever made them really knew their stuff.
Abel smiled. "The bunny ones are even better. Mr. Abraham couldn't stop eating them." 1/2 Chapter 433 Treading Carefully "Really?" "Yep." Abel nodded.
Stella picked up a bunny one and took a bite. Okay, yeah. He wasn't kidding.
"Mmm... so good!" She was practically moaning. It was that good.
5 Free Coins When Abraham walked in, the first thing he saw was her tiny, puffed-up face stuffed with food, looking as happy as could be That soft round face, full of satisfaction from a simple snack, was just... adorable.
When she spotted him, Stella's cheeks were still puffed out. "Abraham, these are so good! Where did you get them?" She'd been in Rivermount this whole tand hadn't even known a place like this existed.
"If you like them," Abraham said, "I'll have Abel drive out and get more for you to take back to Falvaria." Her eyes lit up. "Wait-are we really going back today?" Abraham nodded. "Yeah. Evening flight." That answer made her light up with joy.
So they were finally going back. That meant nothing else would get in the way.
And good thing, too. If they delayed any longer, she was genuinely m worried about how badly Su Su might freak out. Victor, seriously. Why the hell did you have to scare my poor little pancake like that?
Suddenly, something cto mind.
"Derrick and Marie Marie are both back in Falvaria now, aren't they?"
She'd meant to bring it up last night, but Abraham had chdrunk. Then this morning, he was already gone. Abraham frowned. "They called you?" "Mmhm." And it wasn't just a call-Derrick had been acting like a total brat on the phone.
Stella glanced over at him. "Didn't Marie say she was flying to Frapucu?" Wasn't Dan supposed to be there? By all accounts, Marie shouldn't have made it back to Falvaria so soon.
Without a word, Abraham pulled her into his lap and picked up a pastry to feed her.
Stella shook her head. "No thanks, I'm full." "You're eating this little now?" That question made her freeze.
Right... why was she eating so little lately?
