Chapter 310 Bullets and Bad Luck
Stella twitched at the corner of her mouth.
Really?
I had been here for a long time, and this place had always been safe. How could something like this happen all of a sudden?
A thought struck her, and she turned to Abraham. “Could it be Derrick and his shady tricks?”
“Do you think he would dare make trouble here?”
“I don’t know… I just have a feeling that he might not be what you all think,” Stella said Juncertainly.
Ever since Abraham arrived at Rivermount, it was clear from the things Eddie had let slip that everyone thought Derrick was in terrible shape.
Almost as if he was walking around with nothing left.
But what I saw in Pagena was the complete opposite.
It looked like he was in control of all of Pagena.
Eddie scoffed, “If he wanted to cause trouble because he lost you, wouldn’t he have done it in Pagena? Why come all the way to Rivermount and cause more trouble?”
Stella blinked. “!!!”
I seriously want to slap this man’s mouth shut.
Eddie continued, “If he really wanted to grab you, why didn’t he do it sooner? He already missed his chance. Coming to Rivermount would only make things worse.”
The balance of power in Rivermount was already a tangled web.
If Derrick dared to act up here, he’d be inviting more chaos.
He’d barely survived the last few years with Abraham hounding him. Why would he be stupid enough to show up now?
Stella rolled her eyes. “Do you really think every man becomes a lovesick hero for some woman?”
Eddie obviously had way too much time to fantasize.
If he wanted to experience a whirlwind love story, why not just go out with someone instead of making up wild theories?

Stella gave him a look like he was a total idiot and decided to keep quiet. There’s no point arguing with someone like that.
Eddie understood that look. Yep, Stella was definitely just mentally cursing me.
Abraham’s slender fingers tapped lightly on the table before he finally turned to Abel. “Leave.
Now.”
Eddie jumped. “What? You’re skipping clearance and air traffic control? Are you crazy or just
suicidal
The airport was a mess; chaos on the ground could easily mean chaos in the sky.
No one was coordinating flights!
Abel replied calmly. “Don’t worry, Mr. Eddic. We have an advanced on–board system.”
Eddie twitched. “I want to get off this plane.”
Victor slapped him on the back of the head. “You want to go out and catch a bullet or two?”
Eddie fell silent.
Seriously, what kind of bad luck is this?
Abraham really is a maniac, trying to take off without permission. Is he out of his mind?
But then Eddie looked at Stella, who was calmly sipping her fruit tea next to him, and relaxed.
Abraham might not care about our life, but he’d never risk hers.
Thinking that, Eddie finally shut up.
Abel turned to the stewardess. “Seal the cabin. Prepare for takeoff.”
“Yes.”
The attendant nodded and turned to carry out the order.
Abel also left to complete the pre–takeoff procedures. But not even a minute had passed before–
“Ah!” the attendant shrieked, stepping back with a suspicious look. “Who are you? You can’t be here! Get off now!”
“I I need help! Please! Someone’s trying to kill me!”
Tessa’s panicked voice rang out, and Stella jumped to her feet.
She turned just in time to see Tessa being pushed back by the guard at the door.

Chapter 310 Bullets and Bad Luck
Tessa had been begging for a place to hide, scared out of her mind.
When she heard Stella’s voice, her body stiffened. She turned to her mechanically.
Stella put down her oversized teacup and quickly approached her.
“What are you doing at the airport?”
Hadn’t she just said she was doing an interview at the Reed f gossiping a few minutes ago.

mansion? We had literally just been
As soon as Tessa confirmed that it was really Stella, tears started streaming down her face.
She rushed into her arms. “Star, I swear I almost died. A bullet almost hit me. I really thought I was done for
The usually fearless Tessa was completely shaken.
Running through a literal storm of bullets had shaken her to the core.
Stella patted her back gently, trying to comfort her. But she really couldn’t hold herself from laughing.
What kind of luck do you have anyway? Was there some gossip so juicy you had to chase it to the airport?”
Tessa hiccuped. “What? No, no. I just helped my mom pick up a document.”
And almost got myself killed for it.
“Ugh, why is my luck so terrible this year? Every time I go out, something crazy happens. Oh right, it’s my zodiac year.”
Stella was completely speechless.

Ch 489 Doesn’t this prove that Dan doesn’t actually have amnesia? Why would he go to the island with a strange woman and why would he steal from Derrick? He doesn’t know them....
Ch 488 I feel like this is going to be what Stella stole in his study in Pagenda or wherever his estate was....
Ch 485 I thought it was going to be the Reed family mine that she robbed, thus taking the Keenes product and leaving them in that situation....
Ch 483 o then, how did the Reeds fine her? How did they not know where she was from?...
Ch 477 Definitely hidden pedo in here, referring to tiny women as little girls in every way possible....
Ch 468 How could Stella inherit her adopted father’s weak stomach constitution?...
Ch 468 Abraham and Marie’s mother has been called Evelyn, Diane and Loretta.. which is it? Evelyn has been the most used....
Ch 465 She still doesn’t know the mistress is Lillian’s aunt?...
Ch 464 Why didn’t she kick her out herself be for she went to attack the mistress…...
Ch 463 This is stupid now. I understand being scared in his presence enough to not think straight, but she’s a lone more often than not and has plenty of time to think things through, especially if she has time to get gossip from Rivermount and report to Stella....
