The Returned Heiress Who Never Fit In

Chapter 756 Breaking Point.

Huh… Come to think of it, maybe that really was possible.

Stella froze. “Uh…”

Hearing Tessa’s words, she went silent.

What in the world was going on anymore?

Marie had gone mad demanding the Ashen Pact hand Tessa over. Deep down, all she feared was that Victor would be the one to tear her apart.

And now, Tessa’s worry was that once Marie found out she had been by Victor’s side all along, Marie would tear them apart.

In the end, everyone was just trapped in the same fear.

Stella finally said, “Honestly, you don’t need to worry so much.”

“I’m scared,” Tessa muttered.

“You don’t have to be. I’m guessing this whole thing won’t be over for a long while,” Stella said.

Abraham had said Victor was playing a long, calculated game against the Ashen Pact.

It was a game he’d been setting up for years, waiting for the perfect time to strike. If he was finally making a move, it meant he was planning to bring everything down in one strike.

And a game like that wasn’t going to end anytime soon.

But Tessa’s worry wasn’t wrong either.

What if the game wasn’t over yet, and Marie found out the truth about her and Victor first?

If that happened, Marie wouldn’t be tearing at Ashen Pact–she’d be going straight for Victor.

“Relax,” Stella added. “Worst case, my brother will step in,”

There was no way Abraham would ever let Marie and Victor tear each other apart. That much was certain.

Hearing that, Tessa finally felt a little more at ease.

“Right… Mr. Abraham’s still there.”
