The Wrong Girl and the Wronged Girl (Stella and Ethan) novel Chapter 315

Chapter 315 Behind the Curtain

Abraham pressed her back against his chest once again. “There were things I hadn’t finished dealing with.”

“You knew about the Reed family too?” Stella asked.

Otherwise, how could he have let me get away with a few hundred thousand so easily?

Abraham said calmly, “I knew some. Not a lot.”

Not a lot? How much exactly?

Stella tried to lift herself up again, but Abraham gave her no chance and held her down.

Up ahead, Abel finally could not hold it in. “Ms. Dawson, actually, the moment you fought with that adopted daughter from the Reed family, Mr. Abraham already knew where you were.”

What? He found out that early?

She looked up at Abraham, her vision suddenly misted over.

Abel added, “If he hadn’t been worried you’d get suspicious, he would’ve given you a few hundred million for design fees.”

Stella did not know what to say.

At that, Eddie burst into loud laughter. “Yeah, yeah, if I hadn’t stopped him, he would’ve handed. you a few hundred million straight up, scared you’d starve to death out there.”

Listening to that obnoxious laugh and those ridiculous words, Stella was completely stunned…

She looked at Abraham, sniffled, and muttered, “You… you… you…”

Seeing her look so wronged and resentful, Abraham lowered his head and pecked her soft lips. “What? Angry?

Stella wiggled in his arms, clearly expressing her displeasure..

Abraham soothed her, “Be good.”

Stella let out a proud little snort.

She really had believed she made that 980,000 dollars on her own this past year. And now? It was

all a lie.

“Then Sterling Global…? Stella asked softly.

Eddie chimed in, “Don’t think much about it. That’s Abraham’s.

At this moment, not only did Abraham want to tear Eddie apart. So did Stella.

“You tell me, she demanded.

Abraham gave a soft “mm,” which was answer enough.

Stella snuggled deeper into his arms, and he looked down at the fluffy little head.

Her fisherman’s hat was crooked from all the burrowing.

That puffed–up little expression made Abraham suddenly feel like he was losing control.

He was… turned on. This little thing really knew how to get under his skin.

Abraham ruffled her hair. “Alright, don’t be mad anymore, hmm?”

Stella said with rare grievance, “I was trying so hard to make a living on my own.”

When she started the studio, she had already begun to get sporadic orders. The design fees were not high, but it was enough to support herself.

And yet Sterling Global had given her such exorbitant fees, and she had not suspected a thing.

She even naively believed that the boss admired her talent and paid her so much because he valued her work.

But in the end? Nothing was real.

Abraham said gently, “You’ve done very well. Even knew to earn your own living.”

When he heard she had opened a studio, Abraham had a pretty clear picture of her financial situation in the Reed family. And the moment she suddenly used that black card he gave her, hist heart had gone into chaos.

He thought she was in serious trouble.

Even though there were still many things left unresolved around him at the time, Abraham had dropped everything.

Eddie nodded. “Yeah, our little princess really did well. Even knew how to make money.”

“Don’t talk.”

Shut up.

Both Abraham and Stella spoke in unison.

Eddie rolled his eyes.

When they passed by a supermarket, Abraham said to Abel, “Go buy some snacks.”

Abel nodded, “Alright.”

Who else could the snacks be for? Of course, they were for Stella.

She had not eaten enough on the plane, and hours had passed. Her diet was now quite regulated. and she had a serious appetite.

Abel got out of the car go pick out

and looked at Eddie, who remained seated. “Mr. Eddie, want to something you like?”

Eddie shook his head. “I’m not going. What snacks does a grown man need?”

He had laughed so hard earlier that his stomach was still sore.

Abel was speechless.

This kid is hopeless.

So Abel went alone.

Eddie then realized he looked like a third wheel left behind. “Fine, I’ll go see if there’s anything I

want to eat.”

And off he went.

Now, only Stella and Abraham were left in the car. The man looked down at the little creature still curled in his embrace. “Are you really mad?”

Stella sulked, “I really thought I was doing well.”

Abraham responded with a low hum. “You were. You even knew how to hide yourself.”
