Tessa nodded. “Mm.”

She nodded so matter–of–factly, you’d never guess her mom was plotting to kill her dad.
Her loyalty was clear–she stood with her mother, no hesitation.
After Victor updated her on the Ashen Pact situation, Tessa wasn’t too worried about her mom anymore.
Especially since he mentioned Marie and Derrick had also gone to deal with Dan.
He didn’t say why.
But if Marie and Derrick were tying up Dan, that meant her mom could focus completely on Dale, that rotten bastard.
Tessa still wanted to go to the Ashen Pact herself.
But Victor said her presence would only complicate things. Worse, Dale might try to use her as leverage, playing the sympathy card to appeal to her mother’s softer side.
So, after thinking it over, she decided not to go if she’d just get in the way.
Victor handed her a phone, and she immediately tried to call Stella.
…
At that moment, Stella was in the medical wing getting a prenatal checkup. She heard her phone buzz and reached for it.

But Abraham took it from her. “Be good. Focus on the scan.”
Stella nodded. “Okay.”

Watching the screen, the doctor pointed something out. “This is the baby right here.”
Stella said, “Looks bigger than last time.”
Last time, the fetus looked like a little peanut. Now it was more like a ping–pong ball.
The doctor glanced at the screen again.
“Huh…”
Stella blinked. “What is it?”
The doctor moved the ultrasound probe slowly over Stella’s belly, her movements cautious, as if she’d just discovered something big.
Stella started to feel nervous at the odd behavior.
She instinctively looked to Abraham.
He took her hand and gently traced her palm to soothe her. “It’s okay.”
Then he turned to the doctor with a much sharper gaze.
The doctor flinched under his stare and quickly said, “It looks like… she might be carrying triplets.”
Abraham went silent.
Stella went silent.

The exam room fell into complete stillness.
T–T–Triplets?
Wait, what?
Stella asked, “Triplets?”
Her voice was full of shock.

The doctor reviewed the scan again. “The other two embryos must’ve been smaller before, so they didn’t show up clearly.”
“And now they’re clear?”
Abraham’s tone was sharp.
The doctor nodded quickly. “Yes, it’s clear now.”
If she missed it again, she might as well hand over her license.
Hearing the confirmation, Stella turned to Abraham, eyes sparkling. “Triplets–three babies?”
Twins would’ve already been a surprise. Now it was three?
Abraham gently stroked her soft hair. “Yeah. Three.”
Stella beamed.
Abraham asked the doctor a long list of questions about care, precautions, and risks before finally taking Stella back to the main house.
Stella was still practically glowing with excitement.
“I want to call my mom–I have to tell her!”

Triplets! Her first instinct was to call Evelyn.
Abraham said, “I’ll call her. You cat something first.”
She hadn’t eaten all morning because of the blood tests and other procedures.
Stella nodded obediently. “Okay.”
She was really hungry now.

Evelyn had given her some meds to ease her morning sickness, and ever since then, her appetite had noticeably improved.
Abraham dialed Evelyn. She’d been away and hadn’t returned in a while.
When she heard Stella was pregnant with triplets, Evelyn was stunned. “Triplets?! My Star really outdid herself!”
Triplets–what a rarity!
Evelyn said, “Take good care of my baby girl. I’ll be back in a few days.”
Abraham replied with a quiet “Mm.”
Then Evelyn added, “And you–you better behave at night. Don’t even think about touching her.”
Abraham went quiet.
“Triplets are high–risk. Be smart about this.”
She paused. “You know what? Just sleep in separate beds.”
She thought it over and figured that was the safest move. She really couldn’t risk anything happening to Star.

Abraham rubbed his temples. “I know what I’m doing.”

“Don’t ‘I know what I’m doing‘ me. Don’t think I don’t know how you ignored my advice before,” Evelyn huffed.
She kept nagging through the phone while Abraham’s headache grew
worse.
Luckily, the conversation didn’t stay there for long. Given how little self- control Abraham had around Star, Evelyn decided she’d better return that very night.
Then she switched topics. “By the way, the Keene family called me.”
Hearing that name, Abraham’s expression darkened. “What did they want?”
“What else? They want you to go easy on them. Judson called me himself.”
That man had always carried an air of arrogance and superiority.
For him to pick up the phone personally meant he was desperate.
Abraham said, “If his descendants don’t know how to behave like decent people, what does he expect me to do?”

The readers' comments on the novel: The Wrong Girl and the Wronged Girl (Stella and Ethan)
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....
