The Returned Heiress Who Never Fit In novel Chapter 665

Chapter 665 No Exit Left

But Ethan had it all wrong….

Falvaria’s Mr. Abraham held terrifying power in his hands. He would burn everything to the ground before letting the word “compromise” enter his vocabulary.

There had only ever been one person he’d compromised for.

“What’s the status of the Reed family now?”

“Completely bankrupt.” Abel reported.

The Reed Group had finally shattered beyond repair.

Abel hesitated, then added, “Also, Patrick’s mistress ran off with some man… and took the twins with her.”

“Ran off?” Abraham asked, brows raised.

Abel nodded. “Yes. After the Reed Group collapsed, she disappeared with that guy–kids and

all.

Abraham went quiet.

Ran off with another man… and took the kids?

Something flickered in his eyes–an interest that bordered on amusement. “Rivermount’s been lively lately.”

Abel agreed. “Very.”

Both the Keene and Reed families were in utter chaos. Lillian’s death hadn’t even caused much of a stir–they were all too busy trying to survive.

Abraham chuckled and set his coffee cup down. “Pass that along to Star later. She’ll love it.”

Ever since Stella returned from Rivermount, she’d taken a liking to gossip.

Whenever Tessa told her something juicy, she lit up.

Stella slept straight through until four in the afternoon.

When the butler came in to report the latest about the Reed family, she was stunned into silence.

“She ran?” she repeated.

With a man?

Wait, what?!

That was beyond scandalous.

The butler nodded. “Mr. Abraham said it himself. It’s confirmed.”

Stella was floored.

If Abel had passed it along, it had to be true.

Patrick had given up everything for that woman–abandoned his family, cut off Susan, walked away from every piece of leverage.

And now?

The woman took the kids and vanished the moment the money ran out?

Stella sucked in a sharp breath. “So then…”

“Do you think the kids weren’t his?”

She ran off with someone who accepted her and two children?

That woman must’ve been some kind of siren.

Unless, of course, the kids weren’t Patrick’s to begin with.

The butler nodded. “That’s the most likely explanation.”

Stella said, “Then Patrick’s probably not long for this world.”

“Hm?”

The butler didn’t follow.

“He’s going to get himself killed,” Stella said. “Out of pure rage.”

He had doted on that woman like a treasure.

To be with her, he’d given up everything he had with Susan. Suffered huge losses. Broke ties with his family.

And now she’d run off–with kids that clearly weren’t even his

The butler chuckled. ‘He’ll be lucky to survive the shame.”

If he didn’t drop dead from rage, then his ego was indestructible.

Just then, Abraham called.

“Be good and eat dinner tonight. No being picky.”

“You’re not coming back?”

“Tll be late. Behave while I’m gone.”

“Okay, got it.”

It felt like a husband checking in with his wife. Stella’s heart warmed.

Although, every time he said he’d be late, he usually showed up right after.

Now that he was being this detailed… he might actually stay out a while.

She had barely put her phone down when a maid came in.

“Miss. Mrs. Tom–Mona–is asking to see

see you.”

Stella glanced at the butler.

His brows furrowed. “It’s likely about Kelly.”

Right.

Mona–Kelly’s mother.

After all this time, Mona had finally come knocking.

Three years ago, after that incident, the Tom family had suffered tremendous losses at Abraham’s hands.

Kelly had been involved, and the consequences had been severe.

Stella’s tone was sharp. “Tell her to leave.”

No hesitation.

She had no intention of seeing Mona. Kelly’s case was closed as far as she was concerned.

The maid nodded and left.

The butler turned to Stella. “Nearly all of the Tom family’s assets are under the young master’s control now. Derrick didn’t take much when he left.”

Stella went quiet.

Back then, Derrick had been hunted across the globe.

To Abraham, the Tom family had been nothing but trash to be eliminated.

They’re nothing like they used to be.”

Kelly…

One thing Stella still didn’t understand was Holt’s attitude.

Since that event three years ago, he’d barely done anything to help Kelly.

Moments later, the maid returned again.

“Miss.”

Stella looked up. “Now what?”

“Madam Tom says if you won’t see her, she’ll throw herself on the ground out front and refuse. to leave.”

Stella raised an eyebrow.

A grown woman–a so–called elder–resorting to this kind of theatrics?
