Chapter 782 Rianne Wants A Bodyguard

When Stella heard it wasn’t about stopping Tempest, she let out a quict sigh of relief.

It wasn’t that she didn’t want to help Rianne; it was just that... her first thought had been that it was impossible.

And there was the fact that Tempest, though from Rivermount, had influence in both Yalvoria and Falvaria’s

underground worlds-power that was nothing to scoff at.

Put simply, Rianne’s decision now had likely been within Tempest’s grasp all along.

She had always been the bird in his hand; if he didn’t want to let her go, escaping his palm wouldn't be so easy.

Rianne drew in a deep breath. “Even though I've left Rivermount, | know full well that things between Tempest

andaren't completely severed; those people still won't letgo.”

Stella went quiet. Those people? The Hale family?

“His sister, Ariana, and his mother-they’ll probably cafterin Yalvoria,” Rianne said.

“What?”

“You need to helpstop them.” Rianne looked straight at Stella.

There was no mistaking it; she was asking Stella to protect her.

Her lips curved in a bitter smile. “I just want to leave Tempest; I'm not looking to die. Before | can truly cut ties

with him, | have to make sure | can stay safe, right?”

She said it lightly, as though it cost her nothing.

But only someone who had lived through it could know the depth of that bitterness.

“Does Tempest even know his mother and sister would do this to you?” Stella asked.

“Him? Ha...”

At the mention of Tempest, that false lightness vanished from Rianne’s tone, replaced with sharp, cutting irony.

“In his eyes, his mother is just a sheltered society lady, a simple, harmless noblewoman. And his sister? Pure

kindness.”

Stella suddenly understood.

Chapter 782 Rianne Wants A Bodyguard

For years, it had looked like Tempest cherished Rianne, taking her everywhere he went.

But in reality... he had no idea what she endured by his side.

No-maybe he did know. He simply weighed things in his heart differently; and when it cdown to it, Rianne

was not his priority.

“I understand,” Stella said with a nod. “I'll make sure everything is arranged for you in Yalvoria.”

“Thank you, Stella.”

“Don’t thank me.” Stella reached out, clasped Rianne’s hand, and patted the back of it reassuringly.

She wanted to say something comforting, but she knew words wouldn't help now.

The sorrow radiating from Rianne was overwhelming; it felt like she had already reached her breaking point.

The buzz of a phone vibrating broke the moment. It was Rianne’s.

She glanced down, Tempest.

She gave Stella a small smile. “I'll just take this call.”

“Alright.”

Rianne stepped aside, answering.

The moment the line connected, Tempest’s voice cthrough, taut with suppressed fury. “Where are you?”

“Does it have anything to do with you?” Rianne countered.

“Rianne!”

His voice hardened, his anger crackling even across the line.

She closed her eyes briefly. “The moment you leftstanding in the rain two nights ago, wherever | go for the

rest of my life stopped having anything to do with you.”

Rianne’s back was to Stella, but she wasn’t far; Stella caught every word.

And when she heard her words-she could hardly believe it.

To outsiders, Tempest doted on Rianne. People often said he held her in the palm of his hand.

Whatever he said on the other end, Stella couldn't hear; what she did hear was Rianne’s voice, sharp and ice-

Returning to the sofa across from

Stella, she picked 12 orangeljuice

The flicker of bitterness in her eyes did not escape Stella. “Rianne... Tempest, he-"

“You're wondering how could he?” Rianne asked.

Yes. How could he? To leave her in the rain? Since when had their fights escalated that far?

All these years, when the Hale family refused to accept her, Tempest had always stood by her.

So why now? Rianne lowered her gaze, hiding the grief threatening to spill over. “For his sister- it’s not the first

time.”

“His sister? Not Hailey?” Stella asked, startled.

She knew Tempest had a sister.
