The thought of her brother’s temper made her wince–but Sophia was right. If anyone could deal with Victor right now, it was Abraham.

She dialed him immediately.

Abraham had been enjoying a rare stretch of peace. Ever since Victor had started tailing Derrick, he hadn’t shown up at the Dawson estate once.

She hissed in pain, dropping the scissors to check her wound, only for Abraham’s large hand to grab her wrist.

A bead of blood welled up on her fingertip. Abraham’s expression darkened.

He turned on the speakerphone, set the phone down, and gestured to the butler nearby.

The butler nodded and hurried off to get the first aid kit.

Abraham went silent.

Stella froze too.

The moment Marie mentioned Tessa, the hand Abraham held stiffened slightly.
