Chapter 719 The Weight of Three

“Why did you only just come back-?”

Her voice carried a thick nasal sound–proof she had cried long before falling asleep.

Abraham sighed helplessly, lifting the blanket and pulling her into his arms. “Such a delicate little thing.”

“Abraham…”

“Hm?!”

The warning in his tone made Stella quickly change, “Honey-”

Her voice was full of grievance.

Pressing her head to his chest, Abraham asked, “You get one package and immediately start doubting me?”

“I…”

What else could she do? The sight of it had scrambled her mind.

He didn’t explain himself, only asked, “Have you thought it through now?”

“Hm?”

“On my way back, I flew hours on a direct route. Thought it through yet?”

The moment he’d gotten the message, Abraham had rushed home, taking the fastest jet available.

Stella rubbed her head against him like a child too wronged for words.

Abraham bent and kissed her, firm and demanding.

She struggled–until he pinned her restless hands and stole her breath away.

Only when she was gasping did he release her. “You little fool.”

Her eyes shone with tears, her face all wounded innocence, making his heart ache even as he

scolded her.

“There’s nothing,” he said softly. “Understand?”

“And that package?”

:

“Mother has already sent people to find the culprit. She’ll take care of it.”

The message was clear: Abraham himself wouldn’t interfere.

“You won’t handle it?” Stella whispered.

“What’s there for me to handle? It has nothing to do with me.”

His calm dismissal soothed her. At least that proved the matter truly had nothing to do with

him.

Seeing her pout in silence, Abraham ruffled her hair. “You awake now? Or want to sleep some more?”

“I don’t want to sleep.”

“You didn’t eat dinner, did you?”

Her head ducked guiltily. After that package arrived, her anger had spoiled her appetite entirely.

She did trust him—she only hated that other women still hadn’t given up.

She knew how many admired him in Falvaria. But knowing didn’t make it sting less.

Abraham sighed, scooping her up.

Startled, she threw her arms around his neck. “What are you doing?”

“Taking you to eat.”

“I’m not hungry.”

“You’re feeding three babies. If you don’t eat, your body won’t hold up. Be good.”

Hearing him repeat “three babies” with such steady concern, Stella’s mood lightened, warmth returning to her chest.

The butler’s heart unclenched when he saw Abraham carrying Stella downstairs. At least she’d

eat now.

Madam Evelyn, seeing them, finally reined in her temper. “Stella, you didn’t touch what I sent up earlier.”

Mentioning the untouched food only made Stella hide her face against Abraham’s chest.

Feeling the heat of her cheek, Abraham chuckled. “Don’t scold her. She’s upset, but it’s your fault–what kind of mess did you stir up outside for her to suffer like this?”

Abraham: “…”

He hadn’t stirred anything!

Still, he couldn’t deny it–crisis had struck, and worst of all, while Stella was carrying triplets.
