Chapter 762 Don’t You Dare Steal Stella

Abraham’s lips pressed into a thin line. “What?”

“Come on, that’s not cool,” Marie said. “Why’d you take her? What are you planning?”

She hesitated. “Wait, don’t tell me you’ve got a thing for Tessa?”

Abraham went quiet.

“I’m telling you right now, that’s not happening!” Marie blurted. “She’s Stella’s best friend. If you try something, Stella and I will both come after you.”

Her head was spinning. She couldn’t imagine why Abraham would take Tessa; but Derrick had sounded so sure.

And she really was worried…

Stella had been missing for three years once before, and she had nearly burned herself out searching.

If this ended with Tessa running away out of anger, where would she even start looking?

Just the thought made her shudder.

But when Abraham heard her wild guess, his face went black.

Marie panicked at his silence. “Brother.”

“I’ve realized something,” Abraham said, his voice low. “You marrying Derrick was a complete mistake.”

“Huh?” Marie froze.

What did this have to do with her and Derrick?

“His brain’s never worked right; now he’s infected you too.”

“I wasn’t-”

Before she could finish, Abraham hung up.

Marie sat there staring at the phone, stunned. Then she glanced at Derrick, who was smoking beside her.

“What did he say?” Derrick asked.
