NovelOnlineChapter 762 Don’t You Dare Steal Stella
Abraham's lips pressed into a thin line. “What?”
“Con, that’s not cool,” Marie said. “Why'd you take her? What are you planning?”
She hesitated. “Wait, don’t tellyou've got a thing for Tessa?”
Abraham went quiet.

“I'm telling you right now, that’s not happening!” Marie blurted. “She’s Stella's best friend. If you try something,
Stella and | will both cafter you.”
Her head was spinning. She couldn’t imagine why Abraham would take Tessa; but Derrick had sounded so sure.
And she really was worried...
Stella had been missing for three years once before, and she had nearly burned herself out searching.
If this ended with Tessa running away out of anger, where would she even start looking?
Just the thought made her shudder.
But when Abraham heard her wild guess, his face went black.
Marie panicked at his silence. “Brother.”
“I've realized something,” Abraham said, his voice low. “You marrying Derrick was a complete mistake.”
“Huh?” Marie froze.
What did this have to do with her and Derrick?
“His brain's never worked right; now he’s infected you too.”
“I wasn't-"
Before she could finish, Abraham hung up.
Marie sat there staring at the phone, stunned. Then she glanced at Derrick, who was smoking beside her.
“What did he say?” Derrick asked.

“He said your brain’s broken... and you infected me.”
Derrick went quiet.

His face, already dark, sank even further. That Abraham, after pulling this stunt, he had the nerve to say they
were the ones with broken brains?
With the way he schemed, even the sharpest mind wouldn't be able to keep up!
Derrick was livid all over again.
“Was it really my brother who took her?” Marie asked.
“Did he deny it?” Derrick countered.
She shook her head.
“Then there's your answer.”
If he didn’t deny it, who else could it be?
“But he didn’t deny it and he insulted us,” Marie protested.
That had to mean they were wrong, right? Otherwise why lash out?
Her brain felt fried; the chaos of the past weeks had burned her circuits.
“She's definitely with him,” Derrick said.
“Why are you so sure?”
She needed a reason-something solid enough to convince herself. Abraham taking someone without even telling
his own sister just didn’t add up.
“Because,” Derrick said, “your little sister Stella isn’t worried anymore.”
Marie went quiet.
Not... worried?
Wait.
Her mind flashed back to Stella's words-telling her not to stress, assuring her that Tessa would be fine.
Right... that wasn’t normal.

Chapter 762 Don’t You Dare Steal Stella
When Tessa first disappeared, Stella had cried on the phone nonstop.
Then suddenly, no more tears; suddenly she was comforting her?
Marie turned her head stiffly toward Derrick, blinking over and over.
“Remember now?” Derrick asked.
“...."” Marie's lips twitched.
But...
“Then why wouldn't she tell me?”

Her darling Stella-Marie had treated her like a treasure, and in return Stella treated her like a fool?
Marie's brain short-circuited; she stared at Derrick in silence, but there was a storm brewing in her eyes.
Derrick reached over, pinching her
cheek with a crooked smile thaigyas

He said it with the kind of laughter that cfrom sheer fury.
Played...
The word landed like a punch to the gut; her emotions surged so wildly she couldn't even describe them.
God knew how frantic she'd been over Tessa.
She had gone mad tearing Ashen Pact apart, demanding answers, ready to rip the place to shreds.
And honestly, Ashen Pact had been nearly gutted by her rampage these past weeks.
But now-to be told that Tessa was never there to begin with?
Not in Ashen Pact, fine. She could live with that. But in her brother's hands?
She had made herself sick with worry, to the point of throwing up-
And all along, Tessa had been with Abraham?
Marie went quiet.

“How could it be him? Tell me, how could it possibly be him? How does this suddenly bechis doing?”
She exploded.
She had suspected every single person in Ashen Pact, Dan, Dale; Artemis, Manny; even those hideous twins.
She had doubted them all.
