But everyone who worked here knew exactly how terrifying the owner really was. Forget Abraham–even Abel alone was enough to scare them senseless. And because of that fear, the entire staff was fiercely loyal to Abraham.
The moment Alex heard Louis words, his face went stiff; he stared at Louis in shock. Mr. Abraham? Is it the one I am thinking of?
The server awkwardly pushed the cash back toward Louis. “I’m really sorry, Mr. Louis.”
Louis frowned. Then I’ll go in myself.”
“You can’t.”
The server stepped in to block him. Louis shot him a sharp glare.
“I can inform him for you,” the server said, “but you can’t force your way in.”
If he barged in, none of the staff here would make it out of this unscathed. Abraham was in today, meeting someone. Abel was here too
The server went over and quietly whispered into Abel’s ear. “Mr. Abel, Mr. Louis is here to s
see Mr. Abraham”
Abel’s face darkened the moment he heard Louis‘ name.
He glanced over at Abraham, who sat not far away, facing an elderly man with snow–white hair. Abel’s tone was icy. “Tell him
to wait.
He’d tracked them down all the way here–if they refused to see him now, he clearly wouldn’t let it go.
The server nodded and left.
Abel glanced back at Abraham and stepped forward, coming to stand behind him. “Mr. Abraham, Mr. Louis is here.”
Abraham didn’t respond. He lifted his teacup and calmly took a sip. His phone buzzed on the rattan table. A message from Stella had come in: “Abraham, what should I eat for lunch?”
It even came with a pitiful little emoji.
Even through the screen, Abraham could practically feel how sweet and obedient she was being. Ignoring Abel for now, he picked up his phone to reply.
But before he could type, another message came through: “Can I eat with Tessa?
He’d originally intended to say he’d pick her up, but now that she’d mentioned Tessa, they’d probably already made plans.
So he replied with a single word: “Okay.”
Then, he added: “No spicy food.”
Stella sent back another crying emoji.
The corners of Abraham’s lips lifted into a faint, indulgent smile..
“Be good,” he wrote.
Setting the phone down, he finally turned to Abel. “Let him wait.”
“Yes, sir

Abraham raised his teacup again, speaking casually. “When have you ever seen me lose?”
“Not losing doesn’t mean you can’t. Just wait.”
“Hmm?”
“Derrick and Monroe–there’s a connection now.”
At those words, Abraham’s expression faltered, a sharp glint flashing through his eyes. “Monroe?”
“Yeah. You know exactly what Derrick wants with Star. If he didn’t, he wouldn’t have let Kelly pull that stunt. He’s been trying to track her down for years.”
But Stella had always been too good at hiding.
A cold aura spread from Abraham’s whole body. He set down his teacup, that dangerous gleam in his eyes growing stronger. A cold
He closed his eyes–dangerous, calculating
The man across from him, Alejandro, gave him a serious look. “That time… you meant to destroy him completely, didn’t you?”
Abraham opened his eyes. They were crystal clear–and deadly.
Yes. He had intended to wipe Derrick out completely.
