The Returned Heiress Who Never Fit In

Chapter 167 You Raised a Storm, She Raised a Fox

Behind the sprawling estate-

When Stella spotted the bunnies, she couldn’t help scooping one up and hugging it tight.

“Wow. You’re so soft. So fluffy.”

She loved furry little creatures. But she’d never bought a pet in Rivermount–she was always afraid she wouldn’t take care of it properly. The thought of not being able to keep something alive made her hesitate.

Back in Fleule, though, she had a little fox.

Abraham came over. The moment he saw her hugging that bunny, his eyes softened.

“You like how it feels?”

Mhm. So soft. So fuzzy. I love it. Can we take them back to Fleule when we go?”

“Of course.”

He understood what she meant. In Stella’s world, if you couldn’t take responsibility, you had no business getting attached. If he told her she couldn’t take them, she’d be heartbroken.

Sure enough, when he said yes, Stella lit up.

“They’re so cute. Dumb little faces. Soft little bellies”

“And what about my Snow? Is he okay?”

Snow was the snowy white fox Abraham had given her on her fifteenth birthday. Her coming–of–age present.
