Semua Bab Let’s Divorce. Mrs. Wright Is Done Playing Nice.: Bab 1061 - Bab 1070

Evan looked at Stella.Neither of them said a word throughout dinner.When the meal was over, Stella set down her knife and fork and started upstairs.“Stella…”Evan finally called out to her.He looked at her back, clearly wanting to say something but unable to get the words out.Stella turned around and looked at him without speaking.“Does it really have to be this way?” Evan asked.He was talking about Fiona.Stella knew perfectly well that he could never choose between Fiona and Yara, yet she had still forced the decision on him.“It isn’t me insisting on this,” Stella replied. “You’re the one who made it necessary.”What did he mean, did it have to be this way?“None of this had anything to do with me in the first place. You’re the one dragging me into it.”He was the one forcing her into the situation.And now he was asking whether she had to go this far?Evan’s chest tightened painfully.“You disgust me, Evan.”The words struck him hard.He could hear the trut

Ivy froze when she saw the message.Wait for her signal?Wasn’t Stella planning to make her move during the journey?Confused, Ivy replied, ‘Not on the way back to Eirden?’Stella answered, ‘Wait until Yara is safely back.’Ivy stared at the screen.Why was Stella still worrying about whether Yara made it back?Then it clicked.Stella wanted her disappearance to devastate Evan completely.She wanted him to remember forever just how thoroughly he had sacrificed her for the Wright family.In that case, Yara really did need to return first.‘I understand,’ Ivy replied.Then she deleted the entire conversation.Even Amos knew nothing about the plan she had made with Stella.And Ivy had no intention of telling him.It was time for everything to end.At least, Stella was ready to put it all behind her.Whether Evan and Felix would ever be able to do the same was no longer their concern.As long as Stella could finally move on, that was enough.The way all those men treated

Aaron gave a low laugh.“You can be surprisingly perceptive sometimes.”At least she understood that he would never let her go.Yara’s heart sank.“Then can you please not kill him?”She had overheard everything.She was terrified.“He’s been working against me for a long time.”Aaron did not answer directly, but the refusal was obvious.That was the difference between possession and love.If Aaron had truly loved Yara, he would never have considered hurting her family.Yet now, he was ignoring her pleas entirely.Yara closed her eyes in anguish.“I looked into the Wright family,” Aaron said. “None of them treated you well.”“Even Evan was only marginally better than the rest.”He was supposedly the family member who had treated her best, but Aaron was unimpressed.Yara had been born a daughter of the Wright family, yet she had lived far worse than Fiona.As far as Aaron was concerned, a family like that was not worth caring about.But his woman was too softhearted.

This time, Stella did not respond to Evan’s apology.There was nothing left to say.Her silence only made the pressure in his chest feel heavier, as though a stone had lodged there.Neither of them spoke again for the rest of the journey.Not until they reached Eirden.Aaron had sent men to wait at the airport, but Evan never appeared there with Stella.His men found nothing.While Aaron was still furious, Evan called him.“You know Desert Ridge in the eastern outskirts?”Aaron was at the castle.His eyes sharpened at Evan’s words.“What are you playing at?”Had they landed somewhere else?That should have been impossible.Aaron’s people had been monitoring the airport the entire time. Every aircraft entering Eirden that day had been watched.Evan should not have been able to slip past them and leave the city unnoticed.“Bring Yara there,” Evan said.“How did you get there?”“You don’t need to worry about that.”Evan’s voice was icy. He had no intention of explaining

But Aaron, who had always been willing to sacrifice Stella before, made an unprecedented choice this time.“Go,” he said to Yara.The decision was unexpected, yet somehow suffocating.Because the moment Aaron allowed Yara to leave, Stella clearly saw a flash of sadness in Yara’s eyes.Stella said nothing.She simply stood there with Evan’s gun still pressed to her temple.Yara hurried to Evan’s side and grabbed his wrist.“Let her go…”“Get on the helicopter first.”They had arrived by helicopter.Aaron’s eyes were filled with danger.Just as Stella had predicted, he had never intended to let Evan leave alive.That was why Evan needed to keep Stella in his grasp.Aaron seemed to read his thoughts.“You’d better not be planning to take her onto that helicopter.”If Evan tried, then today he would…“If I don’t take her with me, will you let me leave alive?” Evan asked.“Evan, you really are…”Aaron stopped, seemingly unable to find words harsh enough to describe him.H
