887 Guess Who’s Coming Home

If they were going by Marie’s usual temperament, she would never have agreed to go back and live with the Ton family.

The Tom family… not just Maric, even Derrick himself didn’t want to live there

Every single person in that house was unbearable; even the air felt suffocating when they breathed it. And now Marie was the one suggesting we move back?

“Well, technically we should, but-

Marie cut him off immediately. “No buts!”

“You’re seriously going back to live there?”

“Of course I am. Do I look like someone who’s joking?”

Derrick fell silent. No, she really didn’t. Marie never joked about things like that.

Still… as awful as those people were, Marie moving into the Tom family home meant one thing those people were in for hell.

And another thing…

Reese and Mona. With Marie’s explosive temper, is she really planning to live there, or is she going back to settle the

score?

Derrick couldn’t help feeling suspicious.

He glanced at Abraham, whose expression darkened the moment the Tom family was mentioned.

He slid the plate of shrimp toward Stella.

“I’ve had enough,” Stella said softly. “I can’t eat anymore.”

She had already eaten plenty tonight.

Ever since they’d learned she was carrying triplets, Abraham had been constantly worried she wasn’t getting enough nutrition.

Especially now that her belly was growing fast but the rest of her body stayed so slender – it made Abraham think she must be malnourished.

Marie, still in her first trimester and battling nausea, had no appetite at all. After forcing down a few bites, she left with Derrick for the Tom family.

As soon as they were gone, Abraham turned to Stella. “What were you and your sister talking about just

now?”

“She said she’s going to kill Mona and Reese. I just didn’t want them dying too easily, that’s all.”

When it came to the Tom family, aside from Derrick, whose misunderstanding had finally been cleared up,

the entire bunch was detestable.

Holt, Mona, Kelly, Gary… and now Reese.

“Reese probably wasn’t trying to replace me.” Stella said.

Abraham raised a brow. “Oh?”

“She’s shorter than me–by at least four inches. There’s no way she could pull it off.”

With that many witnesses around, anyone with working eyes would’ve seen the difference in their height immediately.

“She and Mona must’ve planned to have me die on the operating table,” Stella continued, “so Reese could show up in front of you as my replacement.”

A substitute… Reese had been obsessed with Abraham to a disturbing degree; even as a stand–in, she would’ve done it willingly.

Two entirely different faces.

It was hard to imagine how many surgeries Reese must’ve endured to make her face look identical to Stella’s.

When Stella mentioned that Reese had wanted her to die giving birth, Abraham’s entire body went cold.

“If you didn’t want them dying too easily, then just wipe them out completely,” he said darkly.

Abraham had always been a direct man.

Stella glanced at him and fell silent; that sharp, dangerous aura around him was exactly like it had been back then.

She watched him quietly, and in that instant, Abraham reined himself in.

He pulled her onto his lap and pressed her head gently against his chest. “Sorry.”

“I’m not afraid anymore,” Stella murmured.

Back then, the first time she saw Abraham kill someone, she had been terrified — been so many years since then….

Abraham smiled faintly at her words, his voice softening with affection. “And what about Reese?”

“Marie has plans for her. Reese can’t die yet

apparently she’s got some kind of grudge with Gary.”

“Marie probably wants to use this as an excuse to deal with Gary and Mona together.”

At that, Abraham nodded in understanding.

He tilted her chin up and kissed her hard..

There he goes again. These days, he didn’t even bother to hide it — kissing and holding her whenever he pleased.

“Now that Marie’s back, she’ll be there for the wedding too, right?*

Stella had been worried Marie wouldn’t make it to their wedding

But now, that concern was gone.

She nodded. “Yeah.”

Between them, the topic of Reese barely stirred any tension.

To them, people like Reese and Mona were nothing but mosquitoes small, irritating, and disposable; if they were ever in a bad mood, they could crush them without a second thought.

Marie and Derrick soon arrived back at the Tom residence.

Holt, Gary, and Mona were all home. When they saw Derrick and Marie walk in unexpectedly, the three exchanged wary glances – each harboring their own thoughts.

Even though Derrick was Holt’s biological son, his mother’s mysterious death had left father and son in a strained relationship ever since.
