Chapter 623 Mental Hospital? Say Less

    “Did you have trouble sleepingst night?”

    Abraham cupped the back of her head and kissed her–hard. In that momentb, /bbhe /breally felt like he could devour Ste whole.

    “Mmph…” she whimpered.

    s

    His kiss was rough, as if he wanted to tear her apart and swallow her down.

    Ten minutes passed before he finally let her go.

    Ste pressed her hands firmly against his chest, her wide, blinking eyes locking with his.

    Abraham reached up and gently covered her eyes with his warm palm.

    “Don’t look at me like that.”

    “How should I look at you then?”

    “However you look at me,” Abraham said, “I just want to eat you up.”

    Ste was stunned. iThis /iiman/ii… /i

    Life was really testing Abraham right now; if he’d known it’d be this hard, he would’ve avoided getting her pregnant in the first ce.

    Now every day felt like torture.

    “Mom sent over a bunch of baby stuff yesterday,” Ste said softly.

    The moment she mentioned Evelyn, her voice was full of warmth and happiness.

    Abraham nodded. “It’s time to start getting ready.”

    After getting washed up, the two of them headed downstairs.

    Just as Ste picked up her bowl, her phone rang. She answered, “Hello?”

    “Lillian’s dead. Did you know?”

    Jonathan’s voice came bthrough /bthe line, quiet and full of bsorrow /b

    After all, he had doted on that sister for so many years; now bthat /bshe bwas /breally gone, he couldn’t help but feel it.

    Even after everything that had happened–even though Lillian had done tremendous damage to the Reed family, he was still shaken by her death.

    “Oh? You’re calling to tell me that so I can celebrate?” Ste’s voice was cold, dripping with sarcasm.

    Jonathan paused, thrown off by her tone. Before he could speak, Ste went on, “Don’t tell me you came to me looking forfort? If that’s the case, Jonathan, then Reba was absolutely right to dump you.”

    Honestly, Reba had really seen things clearly.

    The Reed family might’ve been one of Rivermount’s top elites–but what good was that? When you couldn’t tell right from wrong or protect anything that mattered, you ended up with nothing.

    So Reba had taken what she could and left with her child; she’d made the smartest move.

    But Jonathan clearly didn’t appreciate the sarcasm.

    His tone turned harsh in an instant. “She’s dead now. Isn’t it time you let the Reed family go?”

    Since Ste wasn’t the sentimental type, Jonathan decided to cut straight to the point.

    Before she could respond, he added, “Don’t forget, the one rotting in prison is your biological mother.”

    Thatst part lit a fire in Ste instantly.

    Just as she was about to unload on him, Abraham reached over and snatched the phone from her hand.

    “Hey! What are you doing? I hadn’t even started yelling at him yet!”

    That lunatic, if she couldn’t hit him, she at least needed to cuss him out to feel better.

    b“/bbEasy/bb,/bb” /bAbraham said gently. “You can’t bget /bworked up right bnow/bb? /b

    bHe /bsoothed her with a soft voice, then pulled out his own phone and bcalled /bAbel. b“/bbAbel/b.b” /b

    Abel’s voice came through. “Yes, sir?b” /b

    Abraham’s eyes narrowed. “Jonathan’s got something wrong in the head. As Ste’s biological brother, I can’t just sit by and do nothing.”

    Ste was stunned. iWhat /iwas ithat /iisupposed /iito /iimean/ii? /i

    Abel was clearly just as confused. “And what exactly does Mr. Abraham n to do?”

    “Have him admitted to a psychiatric hospital,” Abraham said calmly. “Pay for the first three years up front.”

    Ste and Abel were stunned. A ipsychiatric /iihospital/ii? /i

    That was way harsher than sending Eddie to the Milbar Desert Desert. Mental institutions… even a sane person woulde out wrecked.

    “Understood, sir,” Abel said.

    “And make sure they use the best meds to treat him,” Abraham added. “Do whatever it takes to fix his brain.”

    “Got it.”

    Abraham hung up and looked at Ste.

    She blinked at him. “A psychiatric hospital?”

    Abraham took a sip of his milk. “Doesn’t Star think there’s something wrong with his head?”

    Ste thought about it. “Yeah… yeah, I guess there is.”

    “Then it needs proper treatment. Can’t let it go ignored.”

    He looked so serious, so proper, like he was talking about a routine medical case.

    Ste took a sip of her porridge and nodded. “You’re right, he needs helpb. /bbI /bbalways /bfelt like his brain wasn’t in charge. He’s got all this energy and no idea where bto /bbput /bit.”

    All that effort, wasted on the wrong things.

    That morning, Abraham stayed home with Ste and didn’t go anywhere.

    Around ten, Abel arrived and respectfully reported to Abraham, “Sir, it’s done.

    Before Abraham could respond, Ste burst out in shock. “You ireally /isent Jonathan to a psychiatric hospital?”

    Abel nodded. “Yes.”

    Ste was stunned. iThat’s brutal/ii. /i

    Abel then turned to Abraham. “There was an incidentst night with Mr. Victor.”
