After chatting a bit more, Stella ended the call. She planned to fill Abraham in as soon as he got home and ask him to send someone to pick Tessa up and bring her to her villa.

She’d never gone through anything like this in her life–she had to be completely shaken.

On the other end of the line, Tessa had seemed fine while talking to Stella. But now, alone in her room, her face had gone pale.

She was clearly traumatized.

She was scared. Really scared.

She hadn’t wanted to trouble Stella, but the truth was–she was terrified of Victor.

She kept calling her mom, Diana, and Wesley too… but neither of them picked up. She couldn’t reach anyone..
