The Returned Heiress Who Never Fit In

Chapter 310 Bullets and Bad Luck

Stella twitched at the corner of her mouth.

Really?

I had been here for a long time, and this place had always been safe. How could something like this happen all of a sudden?

A thought struck her, and she turned to Abraham. “Could it be Derrick and his shady tricks?”

“Do you think he would dare make trouble here?”

“I don’t know… I just have a feeling that he might not be what you all think,” Stella said Juncertainly.

Ever since Abraham arrived at Rivermount, it was clear from the things Eddie had let slip that everyone thought Derrick was in terrible shape.
