Chapter 204

Author: Majestic Future
When Stella woke up, her head still felt heavy and foggy.

Evan was sitting beside the hospital bed, a cigarette between his fingers, unlit.

Hearing her stir, he looked over at her. His eyes were deep, dark, and unreadable.

The look made Stella’s chest tighten. “Am I in a hospital?”

She glanced down at herself. She was wearing a hospital gown.

Evan said, “Do you want to be discharged now?”

Stella raised a brow. “Why?”

“You don’t like the smell of disinfectant. If we go back to Mount Lara,

  • Let’s Divorce. Mrs. Wright Is Done Playing Nice.   Chapter 260

    The Baggen City project had become a huge problem.After Evan entered the conference room, he did not come out again for hours.On top of that, the Port Yves project had already cost him heavily.And there was something even worse.Several projects that Hernandez Group had previously co invested in with Wright Group were now facing withdrawal too.Those projects were already halfway through.If Hernandez Group pulled all of its funding now, Wright Group would be left with a massive hole in its cash flow.Evan was furious and overwhelmed.By the time Dora and Fiona arrived, Evan was still inside the meeting.But Dora was in no mood to wait.In a burst of anger, she headed straight for the conference room, only to be stopped by Warner from the secretary’s office.“Madam, I’m sorry, but you can’t go in.”“I have urgent business,” Dora snapped.“But Mr. Wright is dealing with something urgent too,” Warner replied politely, though she clearly had no intention of letting Dora th

    Fiona stared at her mother in shock. “Mom, what are you saying? Stella hit you? Has she lost her mind? No matter what, you’re still her mother-in-law.”At that moment, Fiona truly could not believe it.They had always thought Stella had no class, but this...Surely she could not be this far gone.Summer looked shaken too. “Mom, was it really her?”“Who else would it be?” Dora snapped. “Who else in Harbor City would dare treat me with that kind of disrespect?”Her voice dripped with bitterness.For years, everyone in Harbor City had treated her with deference.But Stella? Ever since entering the Wright family, she had never gotten along with Dora.And now she had actually laid hands on her.Fiona jumped to her feet on the spot. “She’s gone too far. She actually hit you, an elder? Where was Evan? Didn’t he do anything about it?”In Fiona’s mind, after something this outrageous, there was no way Evan would let Stella off.But the moment Evan came up, Dora’s face turned even da

  • Let’s Divorce. Mrs. Wright Is Done Playing Nice.   Chapter 258

    Stella kept saying divorce papers over and over again.And yes, that was the outcome Dora had wanted too.But hearing it in Stella’s tone now, it somehow sounded... arrogant.“What exactly are you trying to say?”Yes.Arrogant.That attitude, like she was the one smugly throwing Evan away, made Dora’s anger feel like it was about to burn straight through her.She already hated Stella enough as it was.But the mocking edge in Stella’s voice made it even worse.What was that supposed to mean? That she, Dora, was some meddling mother who only knew how to drive a wedge between husband and wife?Dora wished she could reach through the phone and slap her.Stella said coolly, “What I mean is, can I get the signed divorce papers from you tomorrow?”If Evan signed them on his own, Stella worried he would come up with some new twisted excuse.But if his own mother kept whispering in his ear, there was a good chance he would not be able to hold out.And that was exactly what Stella

    The moment Stella got back to Mount Lara, she received a text from an unknown number.It contained only a few words.Being in there is the safest place for you.The second she read it, she let out a mocking laugh.She did not even need to call the number back to know exactly who had sent it.Gray was following behind her. When he heard her suddenly laugh, he asked instinctively, “What are you laughing at, miss?”“See for yourself.”Stella handed him the phone.Gray glanced at the message and instantly looked speechless.“This...”Then he sighed. “This was from Mr. Wright, wasn’t it?”“Who else but that idiot?” Stella said coldly. “Did you send him the divorce papers?”Gray nodded. “Don’t worry. Someone already delivered them. Unless something unexpected happened, Mr. Wright should have seen them by now.”Stella gave a small nod.At this point, she was honestly exhausted from all the back and forth over the divorce.What she had not expected was that Summer would really b

    When Patrick saw that Evan still was not saying anything, he continued.“And honestly, if Madam Summer really does go to the police over this, that may not be such a bad thing.”He paused, then added, “Your wife has gone too far these past few months. She’s probably started to forget that everything she’s been able to get away with...”He stopped there, cutting himself off.He did not finish the sentence.But the meaning was clear enough.Everything Stella had been able to pull these past months had only been possible because Evan had allowed it.She had dared to make such a mess, and had been able to keep doing it, because Evan had been standing behind her the whole time.If Evan had not been protecting her, she probably never would have dared to act this way at all.In his own indirect way, Patrick was reminding Evan of something.Without Evan, Stella was nothing in Harbor City.Evan opened his eyes. “What about Felix?”The moment he said Felix’s name, his voice turned ha

    And he and Stella had lost two children too.What had once been one crisis after another had now become a tangled mess, all crashing together at once.Everyone had their own pain.Everyone had their own anger.On the phone, Dora snarled, “That vicious woman belongs in prison.“I already called the police. I’m going to make her pay for this. Evan, if you still have any regard for me as your mother, then divorce her.”Evan said nothing.His head was pounding.With Dora’s voice ringing in his ear over and over, demanding that Stella be thrown in prison, the route he had originally been taking to the office gradually turned toward the hospital instead.But somewhere along the way, something shifted in his mind.Halfway there, he turned the car around and headed back to the office.The moment he arrived, Patrick walked up carrying a stack of files.“Sir, everyone is already waiting in the conference room.”Evan pulled off his jacket and tossed it onto the couch in his office.

    Evan and Stella got into a full-blown argument in the hospital room.No matter what he demanded, she refused to back down about suing Summer.Jennifer had been standing outside the room the whole time. When she heard Evan say, “She fell last night. Her incision split open. She lost a lot of blood—

    Stella drifted in and out of sleep when her phone rang.Seeing Lucas’s name on the screen, she answered groggily.“It’s the middle of the night. What do you want?”“Evan’s with us,” Lucas said.Stella paused. Her grip on the phone tightened, her voice cooling instantly.“So?”“He’s had a lot to

    In everyone’s eyes, she was picking a fight she had no chance of winning.Stella thought for a moment, then said calmly, “Tomorrow, my marriage certificate with Evan and the divorce agreement will be all over Harbor City.”Jennifer froze.“…What?”“Wait,” she said, staring at her. “You’re saying

    On the other end of the line, Dora sounded utterly drained.She really had enough.Why did fate have to punish her like this?Evan frowned and glanced at Stella.“I know Stella’s going to make a scene,” Dora said, her voice trembling. “But your brother is gone. I don’t have any other choice. Sum
