The Returned Heiress Who Never Fit In

Chapter 221 No Longer Hidden

Abraham glanced at her, then finally let her go and turned to pick up his phone.

It was Abel calling.

Abraham’s expression darkened. He stepped aside to answer, his voice cold. “Speak.”

Seeing him walk out to take the call, Stella’s heart kept pounding wildly.

She had a strong feeling this wasn’t over.

“Weren’t you tired? Why aren’t you sleeping?”

Stella stayed silent.

Stella’s nerves instantly tightened.
