Chapter 1554
Preston hung up the phone, struggling with a splitting headache. He rushed out of the villa and saw
Harper still waiting by the roadside for a taxi. It was then that he realized she hadn’t driven
here. Blaming himself for not being more attentive, he quickly walked towards her.
“Harper, something happened to Stella.”
Harper, who was looking down at the route of the Uber, immediately looked up at Preston when she
heard that Stella was
in trouble.
“What happened?”
“Get in the car first.”
Preston handed the car keys to Harper, then grabbed her hand
and walked back.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtOnce they were in the car, Harper found out that Stella had a court hearing with Eric today. After the
first trial, Eric wanted to take Stella away, but Henry stopped them. Eric didn’t hesitate and punched
Henry, while Anthony tried to intervene and got injured
by Eric’s bodyguards.
This was the capital city, the territory of the Sterling pack and the
Simpson family, so Eric was quite audacious. He took Stella and
got into a car. According to the people Anthony sent to follow them, they disappeared after getting on a
helicopter, and nobody
knew where they flew to.
After explaining the situation clearly, Preston made a phone call
and soon a group of luxury cars parked at the entrance of the
hospital.
Preston held Harper’s icy hand and arrived at the hospital room,
where they saw Anthony, who had a handsome face with bruises,
bleeding lip, and blackened brows. Preston couldn’t help but
frown.
“Don’t you bring bodyguards when you go to court?”
Anthony held his chest, which had been kicked by a bodyguard,
enduring the intense pain. He looked at the two people and the group of wealthy young men from the
capital who had just walked
in.
“I don’t have that spoiled young master syndrome.”
The Carmine pack didn’t acknowledge his existence. Calling him.
the young master of the Carmine pack was just a face-saving gesture. To him, he was just a lawyer.
Since he was just a lawyer,
what’s the need for bodyguards in court?

seriously injured.”
After wiping away the blood from his mouth, Anthony looked towards the opposite room.
“He just came out of the emergency room and is still unconscious.”
Upon hearing that Henry was so badly injured, Harper quickly turned around and walked towards the
opposite room.
Henry’s head was injured, with bandages wrapped around his forehead. There were also visible marks
from being punched on his fair face, making him look pitiful.
Despite being beaten like this, he still held a piece of off-white
fabric in his hand. It was fabric from Stella’s skirt.
It seemed that when Eric kicked him down, Henry grabbed onto Stella’s skirt, trying to prevent her from
being taken away.
Unfortunately, outnumbered, he couldn’t match Eric’s strength, and even the fabric of the dress was
torn apart. He couldn’t hold
onto Stella…
