PopularNovelChapter 527 She Got Taken This time, Stella had brought back a gift for everyone from Rivermount, and each one had been carefully chosen.
She wasn't too worried about the others-just the old man. She was afraid he wouldn't like it.
Abraham pinched her cheek with a doting smile. "Don't worry. He'll like it." "Really?" Abraham nodded. "Didn't he used to like everything you gave him?” Stella: "..." That was true.
Back when she lived in Falvaria, she'd give him something every year for his birthday.
And he really had seemed to like everything.
"Then... do you think he's going to lecture me?" Stella added.
After all, she'd been gone for a long tthis taround.
At that, Abraham let out a short laugh. "So now you're worried? If you were that worried, why'd you stay away so long?" Stella pouted and didn't respond.
Like he didn't already know the answer? But this time, Abraham didn't side with her. "If he scolds you, just take it.” Stella: "...ugh..." Let's hope he doesn't go too hard on me.
Before marrying Abraham's father, Lorette had actually been an only child.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHer parents had spoiled her endlessly. Whatever she liked, they liked too.
Stella, though not her biological daughter, was treated like a true granddaughter because of how much Lorette and Abraham loved her.
And Marie adored Stella, too.
Back when she was little, she and Stella had even lived at the Luke family castle for a while.
1/4 23:34 Mon, Aug 4 10 X Chapter 527 She Got Taken That was when Abraham had been too busy to take care of her.
Finished During that time, Grandma had been incredibly kind to her-but Grandpa? Strict as hell with both her and Marie.
It wasn't like raising granddaughters-it was more like raising grandsons. He treated them like boys.
Marie could handle it, but Stella had always been delicate. One stern word and she'd burst into tears.
Bzzzz... Abraham's phone rang, cutting off whatever Stella had been about to say.
He took it out and answered. "Hello?" "Your sister's been kidnapped." It was Derrick's voice.
Even over the phone, Derrick's fury was palpable.
Stella froze when she heard what he said in the background.
A cold glint passed through Abraham's eyes. "What happened?" "Dan's people took her. You going to get her back yourself?" Dan's people...? Abraham's tone dropped. "She left the Dawson estate with you. You're saying this isn't your responsibility?" "I got beat up too! Abraham, I'm telling you-this isn't over. I was thinking once this marriage nonsense was done, we could call things even." "But look at this mess!" Derrick's voice on the other end was full of rage.
Abraham rubbed his aching temples. Before he could respond, Derrick had already hung up.
Hearing the abrupt click, Abraham's face darkened.
Stella asked nervously, "Marie got taken by Dan's people? Is it serious?” Serious? Probably a bit.
274 23:34 Mon, Aug 4 73% X Finished Chapter 527 She Got Taken Abraham's eyes turned sharp as he thought of the investigation Abel had done on Dan.
"Derrick got beat up too?" "Sounds like it." From the way Derrick had been yelling on the phone, it seemed likely.
He got beaten up in Falvaria-on his own turf. Looks like things are about to get messy around here.
Stella blinked. "Wow. Getting beat up on his hturf? That's rare."
Derrick usually ruled Falvaria like a king. For someone to lay hands on him here. That was almost unheard of.
Abraham didn't comment further. He reached out to rub Stella's Gead! 'I'll take you to Grandma first." "I want to go with you to find Marie," Stella muttered.
As soon as he said he'd take her to knewt Grandma's, she knew he wasom planning to head out to find Marie himself. Dan's situation seemed complicated.
And who knew what he might do to Marie? "No," Abraham said firmly.
Dan had been getting chummy with the Monroe faction lately-he was a deeply calculating man.
And Abraham would never allow someone like that to remain in Falvaria.
Which meant, today...
A cold light flashed in Abraham's eyes.
But when he lowered his head and met Stella's pleading gaze, he softened a little. “Be good, okay?" "I'm scared of Grandpa," she said pitifully.
Better to stick with Abraham than face the old man alone.
"Don't worry. She really missed you." 1 > 11 The Returned Heiress Who Never Fit In No matter how mad Grandpa got, Grandma would definitely protect Stella.
Besides, how angry could the old man really get? The Luke family estate cinto view.
