The Returned Heiress Who Never Fit In

Chapter 648 Missing

Finished

These past two days, that same sentence had echoed through the hospital room more times than anyone

could count.

And every time the doctors managed to save him, they repeated the same warning: he had to keep his emotions under control–no more sudden outbursts.

Ever since Stella got pregnant, Abraham had spent most of his time by her side.

That morning, during breakfast—

When Evelyn returned to grab something, she saw Abraham placing a glass of milk in front of Stella.

Stella scrunched her nose in disgust. “No. I don’t want it.”

She hated milk now.

She used to like it, but ever since Abraham made her drink too much of it, she couldn’t stand it anymore.

Seeing her so reluctant, Abraham coaxed her gently. “Be good.”

“I don’t wanna.”

Evelyn watched as Abraham continued to coax her like she was a child. A small smile tugged at her lips.

The butler noticed Evelyn had returned and started to approach her respectfully.

But Evelyn quickly held up a finger to her lips, signaling for silence. She clearly didn’t want to interrupt the couple.

After all, Abraham had nearly lost his mind during the three years they were apart. Now that he finally had her back, no one should disturb their little world.

Evelyn went upstairs.

Stella, unable to win the standoff, finally drank half the glass–reluctantly. “It really tastes awful.”

Abraham dotingly placed a sunny–side–up egg on her plate,

“Then tell me what you want instead.”

His voice was soft–like he was compromising with a child.

“Juice.”

Stella didn’t even hesitate.

Right now, she really craved juice–something clean and refreshing.

Abraham nodded. “Alright. I’ll have someone make it for you.”

“Okay.”

The moment she heard that, Stella lit up.

Abraham shot a glance at the butler, who immediately turned to arrange fresh juice for her.

She was pregnant, after all. Everything she ate had to be carefully managed.

Just as Stella took a bite of egg. Victor stormed into the room.

His face looked bad.

Abraham frowned, glancing at him.

It was the first time Stella had seen Victor look like that. He was usually cool and distant around Abraham.

But now… he actually looked worried?

Abraham asked, “What happened?”

No–this wasn’t something ordinary. Nothing trivial could shake Victor like this.

Victor looked at Abraham, then turned to Stella. When she saw his eyes on her, her heart skipped a beat.

“Is this about me?”

No way.

She was just peacefully pregnant, resting and staying out of trouble. She hadn’t even stepped outside lately.

Especially not enough to get caught up in something involving Victor.

Victor said, “Tessa’s gone.”

Gone?

Wait-

“What? What happened?”

“Who took her? Was it those two freaks? No, wait… didn’t one of them get seriously injured? The other one shouldn’t be a threat anymore, right?”

And besides, Victor’s place was packed with traps.

Even when the twin freaks entered together, one of them ended up seriously hurt. The other couldn’t be in good shape either.

Has Ashen Pact really been pushed so far that they’re still going after Tessa?

Victor replied coldly, “It wasn’t anyone from Ashen Pact”

His voice was icy–with clear frustration and restraint.

Not Ashen Pact?

Stella instinctively looked toward Abraham.

At that moment, something flickered deep in Abraham’s eyes as he met Stella’s gaze.

Clearly, he had a guess.

And from his expression, Stella swallowed hard. “Wait… was it my sister?”

For once, her brain was working.

Victor’s face darkened even more.

Stella’s mouth twitched. “It really was her?”

Victor’s face turned to stone. He said nothing.

Which meant yes.
