Chapter 350 Operation
There were also beef patties. The food from this place really wasn’t ordinary–it was exceptional.
Abraham smiled. These meat patties aren’t exactly small.”
Each one was not small, but incredibly delicious. Really delicious for sure.
“I’m still hungry.” She looked at Abraham with pleading eyes. She knew exactly what he meant earlier he was trying to get her not to eat too much at night.

Abraham said, “I’ll have the kitchen make the same thing for you tomorrow morning. How’s
that?”
Well… okay.” Since Abraham said that, Stella couldn’t keep pushing to eat more. Besides, she’d already eaten six patties and had two bowls of mushroom soup.
Just then, she saw Tessa calling. Reluctantly, she tore her gaze away from the meat patty. She answered the call, her tone still carrying a trace of unspoken bitterness. “Pattic…”
But Tessa broke down immediately. “Star, you’ve got to save me… sob…
Hearing Stella’s voice was the final straw. Everything Tessa had been holding in just collapsed..
Stella was surprised. “What happened to you?”
Tessa sobbed, “My mom… I don’t know who she messed with this time, but those people chased me all the way to Falvaria. They’re vicious–and they even took Wesley!”
Stella said, “What?”
Tessa cried, “I think the whole Rivermount Airport incident that was them too. They’re after
At that moment, the TV was broadcasting the news about Rivermount Airport. From the surveillance footage, it was clear the situation was intense–everything had been smashed to bits.
It didn’t look like those people were just trying to catch someone. It looked like they wanted to wipe them out completely.
Stella looked at the screen, then at her phone. “Where are you right now?”
“I’m in Victor’s car.
Stella was shocked.
Abraham glanced at her; he had obviously heard the phone call.
Stella, hearing Tessa was in Victor’s car, started to feel a bit nervous herself.

“But he’s even scarier, Star, you’ve got to… mmph-”
Beep, beep, beep. Before she could finish her sentence, the call ended.
+B Pearls
Stella froze on the spot. She looked down at her now–black screen and tried to call back, but the phone was turned off. There was no doubt about who had ended the call.
Stella inhaled sharply and turned to Abraham. “Abraham, could you call Victor?”
To say what?”
“Tell him not to scare Tessa. Just look how terrified she is.
And really, Victor could be intimidating even when he wasn’t trying. Stella still got uneasy just watching him get serious. Let alone someone like Tessa, who had never even been around people
like that.
Victor had this raw, natural sense of danger about him–an aura one couldn’t fake. Even when he wasn’t acting aggressively, just being around him alone could be terrifying.
Abraham set down his bowl and chopsticks, pulled a napkin toward him, and said calmly, “Victor
won’t hurt her.”
“But Tess is scared. Can’t you just call him and ask him not to be so harsh with her?”
Abraham’s long fingers tapped rhythmically on the table as he glanced at Stella. “Tessa’s in Victor’s car right now?”
Stella nodded. “Could you ask him to drop her off at my y villa?”
She thought it over. Sending Tessa to the Dawson residence might not be appropriate. She had a villa there too, with staff managing it. Sending her to her private villa would be best.
Abraham said. “Victor probably doesn’t have time right now.”
Stella said, “Huh?”
