 Chapter 403 Trouble Return

 Ste narrowed her eyes. “What do you mean?”

 Earlier, when Tessa had asked the same question, I had understood–it was because she was terrified of Falvaria.

 But now, Derrick was asking this question.

 What did Falvaria have to do with him anymore? 

 Derrick said, “I’m waiting for you in Falvaria, sweetheart.”

 Ste was speechless.

 The word “sweetheart” sent a shudder down her spine.

 Without hesitation, she retorted, “Are you insane?”

 Goosebumps rose all over her skin.

 This bastard. 

 Wait, he had returned to Falvaria? How?

 The Tom family had already been destroyed by Abraham, and he had been hunted across the world.

 Derrick scoffed, “That’s right, I’m insane. My fiancée is out here flirting with other men.”

 Ste snapped, “I’m your fiancée? Your ass!”

 The word “fiancée” instantly set her off.

 I had been trapped in two absurd engagements in my life.

 The first was with Ethan, a decision made without my 

 mind. 

 The second, naturally, was this one–with Derrick Tom. A promise made by the elders, also without my consent.

 Yet, Derrick still refused to let go.

 Derrick chuckled. “That mouth of yours, I’ll tear it up sooner orter. Just you wait.”

 Ste sneered, “I’ll do it to you before you.”

 Her voice dripped with disdain.

 Derrickughed. “That works too. I’ll be right here, waiting for you to tear me apart, my darling fiancée.” 

 He deliberately emphasized the word “darling.”

 Fuming, Ste hung up on him.

 Damn it. Derrick was already back in Falvaria. Did Abraham know? Did he allow this?

 Across the table, Rianne noticed her furious expression. “What’s wrong?” 

 “Nothing. Just eat.” 

 That bastard Derrick. 

 A low–life opportunist who had seized every chance to kick us when we were down, and now he dared to return to Falvaria? 

 He had spent the <ist two years running for his life. 

 Had he forgotten the concept of survival?

 Just as they finished eating, Ste’s phone rang again.

 This time, it was Abraham. “The driver is outside the restaurant. He’s here to pick you up.”

 Ste replied, “I can get home myself.”

 Abraham was firm. “The driver’s already there.”

 “Fine.” 

 Since Abraham had arranged it, she didn’t argue.

 After saying goodbye to Rianne, she got into the car that hade to take her back to Seats Cove.

 calling Derrick again, just to curse him out properly.

 On the way, she couldn’t resist c

 The filthiest insults poured out.

 On the other end, Derrick sighed and rubbed his forehead. “Ste, you’re being unbelievably biased.”

 I knew she was always on Abraham’s side.

 But to curse me like this…

 Derrick’s voice carried a hint of grievance.

 Ste grew even more furious. “Drop the act. You’re just a backstabbing scumbag.”

 Derrick was speechless.

 This damn girl and her sharp tongue.

 Before he could speak, Ste had already hung up.

 Hearing the dial tone, Derrick exhaled sharply. Then, with a click of his tongue, he muttered, “Ungrateful little thing.”

 Sebastian remarked, “Since you betrayed Abraham, she despises you. Don’t expect any mercy.”

 Derrick frowned. “Was that really betrayal?”

 Sebastian hesitated.

 Wasn’t it? 

 Thinking back, maybe it wasn’t.

 The circumstances around Derrick at the time had been incredibly <iplicated. And during the chaos surrounding Abraham, he had, by sheer coincidence, helped him avoid critical danger.

 “But even so, Abraham won’t let you off the hook.”

 Sebastian thought aloud.

 Derrick suddenly decided to return to Falvaria; Sebastian didn’t fully support it.

 They still had unfinished business in Pagena.

 However, seeing Derrick so eager to call Ste, it was clear why he was rushing back.

 Truthfully, Abraham had spent years wanting to be near Ste.

 And Derrick was no different.

 Imagining the scene that would soon unfold in Falvaria, Sebastian rubbed his temples. “So Ms. Dawson is </bing back?”

 Derrick gave a slight nod. “Abraham’s done with business in Rivermount.”

 Sebastian fell silent.

 No wonder Derrick was eager to return to Falvaria.

 I can only hope Abraham will go easy on him when the time <ies.

 Meanwhile, Ste sat inside the car Abraham had sent for her.

 As they passed through the gates of Seats Cove, Patrick stood in the middle of the road.

 The security team tried to remove him.

 Yet, he remained still, eyes fixed on Ste’s car.

 Seeing her arrive, security had no choice but to act more forcefully.

 The car stopped.

 Ste lowered the window slightly, her gaze cold. “Mr. Patrick, what is this about?”
