Chapter 652 The Cost of Fury
But Abraham didn’t quite see it that way. “Relax. She’s not going to eat Tessa.”
“Yeah, she’s not going to eat her raw,” Stella muttered, barely restraining her frustration.
Abraham raised an eyebrow. “Hm?”
“She might just go so far as to spend three full days drilling her into shape,” Stella said.
That kind of extreme would break not just Tessa–but even Stella could barely handle it.
Back then, it had taken just a month of training, and it nearly cost Stella her life.
Never underestimate Marie’s ability. A full month? That was her training program for the most useless people.
Most of the capable folks under Abraham’s command had been trained by Marie. Even after just half a month, they came out top–tier.
Of course, those people had some foundation to begin with–but Marie’s training methods were nothing to scoff at.
Hearing the irritation in her voice, Abraham chuckled softly. “Weren’t you the one who called her in the first place?”
Stella huffed, “Back then, I didn’t know Dan was Tessa’s brother!”
At the time, all she was thinking about was the mounting pressure Diana faced in the Ashen Pact.
If Tessa could grow stronger, even if she couldn’t help Diana directly, she’d at least be able to protect herself.
Even when she learned Dan was currently in power within Ashen Pact, the connection still hadn’t clicked.
But once she heard he was Tessa’s brother–everything spun out of control.
“Wait a sec. How can Dan be her brother? The ages don’t match at all!”
Tessa was clearly younger than Dan.
Abraham explained, “Officially, he’s her younger brother. But in reality, he’s not.”
Stella blinked. “Huh?”
Abraham replied, “Details are unclear.”
Stella was stunned.
It was confusing.
But one thing was certain–if Dan really had a direct blood tie to Tessa, he would definitely be the older sibling. No way he’d be the younger one.
As for what exactly had gone down within Ashen Pact that resulted in Dan appearing younger than Tessa- no one really knew.
“Ugh, I’m just really worried about Tessa right now.”
Stella was genuinely anxious.
She had personally witnessed how brutal Marie’s training methods could be.
And this time, Marie didn’t just snatch Tessa away–she’d done it while still fuming over Dan.
So, what they feared… had happened.
Tessa had become collateral damage.
Dan found out the moment he regained consciousness that Marie had taken Tessa.
He nearly passed out again on the spot.
Dennis quickly called to him, “Sir!”


Now that Marie knew he was the head of Ashen Pact, she also knew exactly how to stir up more enemies for him.
