Chapter 202 More Than Just Drunk Talk
Valery’s lips twitched. “You still want to give her a present?”
Does he really want to give Stella something?
I hadn’t forgotten the awkwardness of the last attempt
Louis replied, “That’s why I’m asking you to choose. Pick something that won’t be misunderstood.”
This made Valery even more nervous
No matter what a man gave a woman, wasn’t it easy to cause misunderstandings?
Before she could say anything, Louis‘ phone rang again. This time it was Sharon Parker.
His tone grew colder. “How did you get your phone back?”
This was a critical time in his partnership with Mr. Abraham. Louis was afraid that Sharon would cause trouble with Stella again.
So he not only had her locked up, but he also had her phone confiscated.
“Louis, please, I’m begging you. Let me out. I really know I was wrong
Hearing her admit her mistake didn’t soften him at all.
Sharon quickly added, “I swear I won’t provoke Stella again. I really won’t.”
After learning Stella’s true identity, Sharon still had trouble accepting it.
I couldn’t believe that the girl I used to mock had now surpassed me.
The Reeds treated her worse than a dog, yet somehow…
“Urn, can I ask… what’s the relationship between Stella and Mr. Abraham?”
Louis‘ expression changed briefly,
He shot back, “Little girls shouldn’t stick their noses where they don’t belong.
“Are they lovers?” Sharon quickly asked.
“They…
“She’s got some nerve, huh? Landing someone like Mr. Abraham. What did she do to get his attention? What tricks did she
use
The questions hit Louis like a barrage of blows.
His voice went cold. “Is that what you learned from hanging out with Lillian Reed? How to smear people?”
Sharon tried to backpedal. “No, I just…
“She’s Abraham Dawson’s foster sister.”
H
Sharon’s mouth dropped open in shock.

Chapter 202 More Than Just Drunk Talk
It probably started around the time she got close to Jonathan and Lillian.
Ever since she started hanging around the Reed family, her mouth had gotten completely out of control.
Louis had actually been in a decent mood carlier, but Sharon’s call ruined it. “You stay locked up.”
With a mouth like hers, she’d definitely cause trouble the moment she got out.
Now I’m sure she isn’t going anywhere until Mr. Abraham and Stella leave Rivermount.
Even if the contract is already signed.
If Abraham change his mind, I wouldn’t even have the right to say no.
Just to be sure, I have to keep Sharon in line.
After he hung up, Louis called the butler. “If she gets a phone again, you’re done.”
“Yes, I understand. The butler’s voice was nervous and deferential.
Finished
Louis ended the call and looked at Valery. After a pause, he said, “Forget the gift. A girl raised by Mr. Abraham has probably seen the best of everything. If we don’t impress her, it will only upset Mr. Abraham.”
That would be worse than losing a business.
Valery nodded. “Got it.”
Finally she could breathe again.
Back in Pluehville Hill, Stella tossed and turned in bed, restless in her sleep.
