Chapter 640 Only Two Years? Lame
Stella said, “Oh, only two years?”
“What’s that supposed to mean?”
“I mean, you might as well stay there for two years and behave yourself.”
Her tone was completely unsympathetic.
After a pause, she added, “I’m doing this for your own good.”
Honestly, with that mouth of his, she’d often worried Abraham might snap one day and just shoot him.
Hearing her say that, Eddie cried, “So you’re seriously not going to put in a good word for me? I’m your Eddie, your big bro!”
“I am doing what’s best for you,” Stella replied flatly.
No amount of pleading could get through her.
On the other end of the line, Eddie was fuming. Two years? What kind of absurd sentence was that?
If Abraham was going to make life hell and Star wasn’t even going to be human about it, then screw them both- Fueled by frustration, Eddie’s brain kicked into high gear.
“Star, let me tell you something, your brother, that gentleman–turned–sociopath, he’s lying to you!”
Eddie thought. If I’m going down, we’re all going down.
“Hm?” Stella murmured.
Just then, Abraham walked in and caught Eddie’s voice loud and clear over the speaker, “Star, I’m telling you, your brother is not a good guy. Don’t mess with him. If you do, watch out, he might toss you into the
Milbar Desert too!”
“And another thing! When you were out of Falvaria, he was being real cozy with two different women.”
Stella was stunned.
Abraham’s expression darkened instantly.
Eddie, oblivious, continued, “Pretty sure he even slept with at least one of them. The guy’s not clean, you shouldn’t let him touch you.”
Stella went quiet. Wow… that was one of the clumsiest attempts at stirring the pot I’ve ever seen.
Abraham stepped forward and calmly took the phone from Stella’s hand.
Hearing her go silent, Eddie doubled down, “What, you don’t believe me? Star, I’m telling you, I’m only saying this for your own good.”
“There was always Mr. Abraham watching, so I didn’t dare say anything before. But now? My conscience couldn’t take it anymore, I had to speak up.”
That “for your own good” line–it was the exact same thing Stella had said to him earlier, echoing word for word.
“Who knows, he might even have some illegitimate kid out there.”
Eddie was really on a roll.
If Abraham was going to treat him like garbage, then fine–he’d make sure Abraham had bigger problems to deal with.
Stella looked over at Abraham; the man had just tapped speakerphone. At this rate… Eddie might never make it back again.
A cold smirk tugged at Abraham’s lips. “An illegitimate child, huh?”
Eddie was stunned.
Suddenly, the other end of the line went silent.
For a second, he froze.
“Mr. Abraham? You’re there too?”
Stella, you are such a traitor
Abraham was right there and she didn’t even give him a heads–up? He was so screwed.
Good time? Was that a joke? He was barely hanging on. He was going insane, literally.
So did Stella. Wait, seriously? He was letting him come back? That didn’t sound right. This wasn’t Abraham’s usual style.

Holy crap. I’d heard it, if I went back now. Abraham would definitely tear me apart. Eddie thought.
