The Returned Heiress Who Never Fit In

Chapter 844

844 Falvaria’s Still on Fire

Tessa continued, “Anyway, just be careful how you deal with this; it all sounds like such a mess!”

“Falvaria’s always been a mess,” Stella said simply.

Tessa fell silent.

That one line hit her right in the chest.

She suddenly remembered back when Stella had been in Rivermount–every time she mentioned Falvaria, she’d sigh and shake her head.

Stella could be fierce with the Reed family and cold as ice toward Ethan, but when it came to Falvaria… she was nothing but resigned.

It was as if that chaos had rotted from the roots up–something too deep and tangled to cleanly cut away.

Tessa sighed. “My life’s a mess too right now.”

Unlike Stella, Tessa had always lived in peace back in Rivermount.

But now, everything was falling apart.

Before one problem was even settled, another would crash right in.

“Don’t worry,” Stella said. “Victor’s with you.”

“My mom just called,” Tessa replied quietly. “She told me Dale isn’t my father.”

Stella froze. Not her father?

“What?”

“She didn’t sound angry,” Tessa explained. “It wasn’t a rant–it felt like she was just telling me the truth.”

Stella blinked. “Then who is your father?”

“I asked. She didn’t say. Just hung up.”
