Chapter 434 Disgust and Disaster

She hadn’t been like this before.

If this were the old days, she would’ve finished the whole tray–no question. But now, she’d barely eaten a third.

Stella shook her head. “I don’t know what’s going on lately, but I haven’t been eating much.”

That’s when it hit her–she hadn’t even had a late–night snack in several days.

She used to get really hungry if she skipped it.

When did her appetite shrink this much?

Abraham asked, “Did Rianne check on you?”

Stella shook her head. “Nope. She had something urgent come up and left before even coming inside.”

It felt like Rianne had a lot going on lately.

“Why’d you come back so early?” Stella asked.

He’d just called her not long ago, and now he was already here.

Abraham replied, “Finished up early, so I came back.”

He didn’t mention that it was because he found out Louis had come by.

Stella nodded. Her body felt a little limp, so she leaned into his arms. “Did you see Jonathan at the gate?”

“Yeah. I saw him.”

He didn’t kick Jonathan out the way he had with Ethan.

When it came to the Reed family, Abraham preferred a cold shoulder. The more indifferent he acted, the more agonizing it was for them.

Especially now that the Reed family had already lost everything.

And in this freezing weather, Jonathan was still standing outside. Let him freeze if he wanted–half–dead would be ideal.

Snuggling into Abraham’s chest, Stella mumbled, “Once we’re back in Falvaria, I’m never coming back to Rivermount.”

“Too upset?” he asked, gently tugging on her earlobe.

Stella replied, “Not upset. Just… disgusted.”

It really was disgusting.

Sure, she’d seen all kinds of shady situations in Falvaria, but nothing like the Reed family. They redefined the boundaries of how vile people could be.

“Disgusted?” Abraham repeated.

“Yeah.”

It was true. The Reed family had a brand of shamelessness Stella had never encountered in the Dawson family.

That attitude…

In the beginning, she hadn’t thought much of their preference for Lilian. Whatever–just stay out of each other’s way.

But after they discovered who she really was? The way Susan’s face changed, how she tried to latch onto the Dawson family’s influence–and then immediately turned nasty when that didn’t work?

I was revolting.

Abraham listened to her describe her impression of the Reed family, and a smile tugged at his lips. He cupped her chin and kissed her.

“Mmph…”

Seriously? Again?

They’d just had a break last night. And that was only because he was drunk and passed out early.

Wait–even drunk, he hadn’t exactly behaved.

Finally, Abraham let her go. “When Eddie gets back later, I’ll have her check

you

out.”

He hadn’t stopped worrying about her sudden lack of appetite.

Over in Falvaria…

Tessa stared at the noodles she’d just made, stunned. She looked over at Victor, who was lounging in the living room.

It had been a whole hour and a half since they talked about dinner.

An hour and a half–just to cook a pot of pasta.

And somehow, she’d failed twice.

The first disaster was already quietly dumped. Now the second attempt…

She looked into the pot and saw a solid pancake and pasta.

She had no idea what went wrong. She’d followed the recipe exactly!

She’d even made pasta for Stella before—and it had turned out fine. What the hell was going on today?

Victor hung up his call and turned toward the kitchen. “Is it ready?”

She looked at him, then the pot. And then she nodded with determination. “Yeah, it’s done.”

Even if it wasn’t–she couldn’t possibly say no now.
