Semua Bab Let’s Divorce. Mrs. Wright Is Done Playing Nice.: Bab 831 - Bab 840

By the time Stella changed and came downstairs, Felix had just walked in.He looked tired, as though he had come straight from somewhere far away, but it did nothing to diminish his natural elegance.The moment he saw that she was dressed to leave, his brows drew together.“You’re going out?”Stella only gave a quiet hum in response.That was all she was willing to offer him now.She did not even want to say one extra word to Felix.Faced with her cold distance, Felix looked helpless.“I told you, Summer will be dealt with within a month.”Stella said nothing.A month.She did not want to hear anything about timelines.She only glanced at Felix without replying.Felix stepped closer and placed his warm hands on her shoulders.“Have Gray pull his people back, okay?”Stella went still.“Summer can’t be touched right now.”“Can’t be touched right now?” Stella repeated. “Or will she never have to pay for what she’s done?”Right now.That phrase sounded painfully familiar

Stella’s expression darkened even further.Using time to keep her waiting.“Can you just say it?”With everything already in chaos, she did not have the energy to piece together hints.And she did not want to.She only wanted to know what was being kept from her.What she was apparently not meant to know.Evan had deceived her before.Was Felix deceiving her too?“Felix used to love someone,” Evan said. “I don’t know whether you knew that.”Stella went still.Someone?She had not known.Her eyes turned cold.Seeing her reaction, Evan gave a mocking laugh.“Did you really think you were the only woman he ever cared about?”The ridicule in his voice was unmistakable.“It was back in college. He fell for her at first sight. Too bad she died.”Stella said nothing.Died.“What does any of this have to do with Summer?”She only wanted to know why Felix had saved Summer.She did not care what other women had once existed in Felix’s life.At some point, people learned to

Stella left.She was so cold that she did not give Evan a single extra glance the entire time.When she returned to the castle, she was surprised to find Felix still there.The moment he saw her, some of the tension left his face.“You’re back. It’s late, and you went out alone. What were you doing? I called you, but you didn’t answer.”When Stella had left earlier, Felix had happened to take a call.By the time he finished and learned she had gone out alone, his heart had tightened.She was a Hogarth now.She should not have been going anywhere without security.Stella checked her phone and realized he had called several times.And seeing the concern in his eyes now…Evan’s words echoed in her mind.“You should go, Felix.”So many things rose to her lips.In the end, that was all she said.“Stella.”“I’m tired. I want to sleep.”She headed upstairs.But the moment she reached the staircase, Felix spoke again.“Did you go see Evan?”Stella stopped.She turned back,

The line crackled with hostility.Felix’s anger was so intense that Evan could feel it through the phone.When Felix was too furious to answer, Evan gave a low laugh.“The Wright family may be gone, but you still can’t take me down, Felix.”Did Felix really think the version of Evan he had seen in Harbor City was all there was to him?Back then, Evan had not wanted the Wright family to collapse, so he had given in to Stella again and again.And when Stella wanted Dora and the others to pay that kind of price, part of him had struggled to accept it.There had even been moments when he considered using the forces he had in Seaborne.But that would have meant turning them against Stella.And in the end, he could not do it.If this had only been about Felix, Evan might have been willing to burn everything down with him.But Stella was involved.Even after things between them had reached that point, he still could not bring himself to go that far.“Is that so?” Felix said.“Yo

The moment Stella learned they had Summer’s exact location, a small, satisfied smile touched her lips.Good.“Send people in,” she said coldly. “And move fast.”What she feared most was Summer going quiet again.If Summer stopped making noise, she would be much harder to track down.As much as Stella hated to admit it, Felix was protecting Summer far more aggressively than Evan ever had.But no matter what, if Stella wanted to find her, she would.Gray turned and left to send people after Summer.Now that they had her exact location, finding her would be much easier.The moment Gray left, Jennifer called.“Stella, can you help me with something?”“What happened?”“I want to come to Eirden.”Jennifer’s voice was firm.After leaving the hospital and returning home, she had gone back and forth over it.But she still wanted to end the pregnancy.And with Leon interfering in Harbor City, it was becoming nearly impossible.So she had decided she needed to leave the country.
