Chapter 32 It Is Not Too Late

Especially the dangerous look on Abraham.

At this moment,shewas sitting on his lap again.

Abraham seemed to really like holding her, asif in his heart, she had never grown up.

But shehadgrown up, andhadbeen an adult for a long time.

Inhisarms, however, what she felt was not the pampering he used to show herwhenshewasachild.

At this moment, Abraham w

full of danger

Stella lowered her head, “Well, could you just ask directly?”

Dmn Ethan, I’ve already explained everything, but with him messing things up,itfeels like everything I said earlier was in vain.

Abraham asked, “Were you protecting him just now?”

Does hemeanI told Ethan to leave?

Stella shook her head. “No, I just didn’t want the place I’ve been living in for two years to get dirty.”

Abraham could kill. She had just felt the same kind of danger she had felt when he killed someone before.

Under his gentle exterior, there was a bloodthirsty heart like a wolf’s.

When she was 13,she was kidnapped.Abrahamfound her and killed all the kidnappersrightin front of her.

Since then, she knew Abraham was not as gentle as he appeared.

When he became ruthless, human life was nothing to him.

If Ethan hadn’t left just now, Stella was sure Abraham would have killed him.

“In a place like Rivermount, you can’t break the law, Stella said softly.

Abraham iaughed. “Star, are you trying to lecture me?”

Stella pursed her lips!

“Anyway, I already told you why I was going to get engaged to Ethan back then. Just don’t go around killing people.”

People could have grudges, and any kind of revenge was fine, but directly taking a life wasn’t Even after being with Abrahamforsomany years, shewasstill afraid of having blood on her hands.

Feeling her body tense up, Abraham knew that the incident from years ago had left a significant psychological scar on her.

Otherwise, when the Tom familyhadthreatened her,shewouldn’t have been so scared that she listened to their demands.

Thinking about the fear she had toendure, the coldness at the corner of Abraham’s mouth slowly faded, replaced by a gentle warmth like that of an older brother.

“Alright, I’ll listen to you and be a good citizen.”

Stella didn’t quite believe it.

Abraham ruffled her soft hair. “Do you v

Finished

“Where to?”

Stella instinctively glanced out the window. It was dark outside. Looking at the clock, it was already six o’clock!

It was still pretty dark in Rivermount atthistime.

Abraham lookedaroundthe thousand–square–foot place, feeling a bit ofaheadache. He had given Stella plenty of money over the years, yet thiswashow she had taken care of herself.

Abel was called over by a phone call.

Stella was packed upandtaken to Verdant Villa overnight.

Looking at the massive castle–like estate, she stared at Abrahaminshock. “Is this yours?”

“It’s yours,” Abrahamsaid.

It was indeed Stella’s, as the ownership of the estate was under her name.

Stella’s mouth twitched. “Mine?”

“Yeah, remember this place? You said you liked it before.”

Stella was left momentarily stunned.

Shehadsaid she liked many places, and she couldn’t quite recall saying she liked this one.

But in Rivermount, she had always known about this place.

Once, Ethan had known this estate was empty and had Jason investigate who the real owner was, even considering buying it.

However, despite Jason’s efforts, he never found out who ownedtheestate.

Now

thatshe knew it was hers, Stella was a little stunned.

“Are we going to live here next?”

Abraham nodded. “Yes, I need to deal with some things in Rivermount, so we’ll probably stay for a while.”

Stella just said “Oh

Since Abraham said he had business to attend to, she didn’t ask too many questions. She usually didn’t pry into his work.

Andso, Stella moved to Verdant Villa.

When Abel took her to her room, he said, “Thiswas originally a gift from Mr. Abraham for your coming of age. Although it wasn’t giventoyou on your 18th birthday, it’snottoo late now.”

The words “coming of age” made Stella’s eyes water.

Abraham had said that for her coming–of–age gift, he would give her something she really wanted.

Before her father’s accident, her coming–of–age gift had already been inpreparation, personally designed by Abraham.

Butunfortunately…

She sighed inwardly and nodded. “Yeah, it’s not too late now.”
