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.

At this hour?

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.

Barely a minute later, Abraham returned from the balcony, still holding the phone, his face cold.

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

“I am, I am! I’m going right now,” Stella said quickly.

She dove straight into the covers, desperate for him not to ask anything more.

But… what about tomorrow?

Her neck was covered in bruises, and it definitely wouldn’t fade in just a few days.

Seeing her burrow into the blanket, Abraham’s cold expression softened slightly with a touch of helplessness.

He walked over, picked her up, and laid her flat on the bed. “How many times do I have to tell you? Don’t sleep curled up like that it’s bad for your heart.”

Stella stayed silent.

Once you leave, I’ll flip over on my own, okay?

Abraham pulled the blanket over her properly. Before getting up, his fingers brushed lightly against the bruises on her neck.
