Chapter 561 The Sister-in-Law Dilemma "No, no, you really can't eat any more. You've already had a lot." When Abraham walked in, the first thing he saw was Marie taking away the rest of Stella's food before she could finish it.
Stella looked up at her with pitiful eyes, clearly unwilling to stop.
Marie coaxed her gently. "Be good now. Abraham said you could eat a little, not stuff yourself full. There'll be food at the banquet too, remember?" "Can I just have one last piece?" The pastries from the kitchen were just too good. Sweet, but not too sweet-absolutely perfect.
Marie turned with the plate in hand. "No." Spotting Abraham by the door, she blinked. "Wait-didn't you say you weren't coming back?" He had just called, telling her to take Stella to the banquet herself.
Abraham shot her a glance.
E E Marie felt her heart skip a beat. “Just saying—I wasn't bullying Stella or anything.
He never let Stella eat too much either, did he? E EWEE WE HE She didn't understand how someone with a weak stomach could have such a strong appetite. Honestly, it was impressive.
Anyone who ate with Stella would find themselves wanting to eat more too.

The affection in his eyes vanished, replaced by a serious stare.
"From now on, call her your sister-in-law." Marie froze.
Uh...
../ That was a hard one. Stella had been her little sister since childhood.
Now, suddenly, she had to call her sister-in-law? / "I mean, can't we just keep it separate? You marry your wife, and she stays my little sister." Call her... big sis? Seriously? Someone who's followed you around your whole life calling you 'big sis' now? Marie's head was spinning. Switching that title so suddenly? Impossible.
Even Stella twitched at Abraham's declaration.
He continued staring at Marie without a word.
The pressure in his eyes made Marie gulp. "Abraham..." "I think she's right," he said, lightly pinching Stella's cheek.
"From now on, call her Marie. Got it?" Marie?! It wasn't just Marie who struggled with the change-Stella couldn't quite accept it either.
This shift in title....
"I really think she's right. Can't we just keep things separate?" "No." Abraham turned back to the frozen Marie. "Why are you still standing there? Say it. Let's hear it." What just like that?

Marie snapped to attention, heart racing, and turned stiffly to Stella.
That one word-sister-in-law-refused to cout. It was stuck.
But the weight Abraham gave off was unbearable.
After several deep breaths, Marie finally choked out, "Hey...?" She stared at Stella, feeling like the entire world had flipped upside down.
When she first heard Abraham had locked Stella down, she'd actually felt relieved.
With Stella's personality, she'd always been the one Marie worried about most.
She even once cried herself to sleep after seeing Abraham kill someone.
If Stella had ended up marrying someone else, wouldn't she have! been bullied to death? So when she heard they were together, Marie had finally breathed easy.
But now, when it ctto actually call Stella sister-in-law-she was stunned. This was madness.

Even if she dared to say it, Stella didn't even seem to dare answer. The 10 dars two of them just stood there, awkwardly staring at each other. Marie's eyelid twitched. "What are you looking atfor? Say something already." =
If Stella didn't respond, Abraham would keep making her say it again and again until she got a reply. If that happened, she really would go insane.
Stella blinked. "Huh?".
"I called you sister-in-law." The air filled with a thick, choking awkwardness.
Marie turned to Abraham, completely speechless.
