Chapter 713 The Test

“R–really?”

“Of course it’s real. Don’t be stupid. Abraham treasures you too much to ever betray you.”

Through the years, plenty of women had set their sights on Abraham.

But none of them had ever gotten close to him.

Unable to win him over, they resorted to stunts like this?

“But what if… what if it really is Abraham’s?” Stella sniffled again.

“There’s no ‘what if!” Marie snapped.

“Even if it were true, you’d still have me. I’d take you away to live on our own, and I’d never let love ruin you.”

She spoke with such conviction that Derrick’s face instantly darkened.

One way or another, Marie finally managed to coax Stella into calming down.

Before hanging up, she showered her with kisses and tender words–any outsider listening might have thought she was the one married to Stella.

Marie shrugged. “She’s just a kid. When something happens, of course she feels helpless.”
