Chapter 243 No Way Out

Abraham kissed her forehead lightly.

“Yes, I spoiled you,” he said. “Everything is because I spoiled you.”

Even her reckless little temper–he had let it grow, pampered it.

Stella pushed at his chest with both hands. Then hurry up and go back to your own room!”

There was no way they could keep sleeping together. If this kept up, something was definitely going to happen. She really didn’t want to get hurt again it was too miserable.

But Abraham had no intention of leaving

Just as Stella was trying to push him away, he grabbed her soft little hand in his large one.

Stella was shocked.

Meanwhile, back at the Reed family.

Lilian said to Jonathan, “The Luke family controls arms across Fleule. Both the black market and the white collars — it’s not that simple

“Stella’s growing up there would have exposed her to all kinds of danger. Look, she’s your real sister. You should find a way to get her out of the Luke family,”

Jonathan frowned. “Lilian, you-”

“I’m fine.” Lilian cut him off.

No matter what, Stella had to be pulled out of the Luke family. As long as she stayed under their protection, Lilian had no

future.

Just the thought of Stella still being backed by them made Lilian’s jealousy burn so hot it nearly tore her apart.

Jonathan scowled. “That little ingrate would never agree to come back to the Reed family. You know that.”

“You have to find a way!” Lilian pressed. “Those people live with their heads hanging by a thread every day. You think tomorrow’s promised?

Idiot. It’s not hard to pull her out–just be ruthless enough.

Seeing how unwilling, Jonathan looked, Lilian almost exploded.

Maybe if Stella came back to the Reed family, and she played the good sister a little while, Stella would stop making things so hard for her!

She didn’t trust it. But right now, she didn’t have a better plan.

Jonathan–sighed. “Forget it. Let’s focus on getting you out of here first”

Right now, he had no good feelings toward Stella at all. There had been too much chaos because of her.

Her life, her death

he didn’t care anymors

“After leaving Lilian’s room, Susan pulled Jonathan aside to complait more about Stella making Lilian’s life miserable.

יד

What else could they do?

None of them had expected Stella to be the little princess the Luke family had lost.

And judging by how the Luke family had turned the world upside down looking for her back then.

Susan was furious, her chest heaving with anger.

she was clearly a

I can’t believe I ever thought bringing her back was a good idea, she ranted. “Raised by the Luke family, and what did we get from it? Nothing but disaster.”

Thinking about how all of Reed Group’s recent troubles had started with Stella made her blood pressure skyrocket.

Jonathan opened his mouth, wanting to say something.

The rang.

At that moment, his phone rang.

He answered coldly: “Speak”

“Sir,” came the voice of Lilian’s assistant, sounding unusually grim.

Jonathan’s voice dropped lower. “What is it?”

“Miss Lilian… probably won’t be able to leave the country.”

Jonathan was speechless.

The words hit him like a hammer to the chest. His pupils contracted sharply.

He glanced at Susan, then gritted into the phone, “What do you mean?”

“What do you mean she can’t leave?”

“Her passport’s been flagged. No flights. No tickets. No borders, the assistant said carefully.

jonathan’s chest heaved.

He wasn’t stupid. After everything that had happened recently–all tied to Stella – he didn’t need a genius to guess who was

behind this

She was the one who did it. She was the one trapping Lilian here.

He gritted his teeth. Then send her to another city”

If she couldn’t leave the country, at least she could get out of Rivermount

He didn’t care where Lilian went as long as she was far enough away that the damage to Reed Group could start to ease.

“No good, sir,” the assistant said. “Every route is locked down. Land, sea, air no way out.”

Jonathan said, “What?”

“She can’t leave Rivermount, the assistant repeated. “Every path is cut off.”

Jonathan’s vision darkened.

No hospitals would admit her. No doctors would come

And now — even the city itself had become her cage.
