Semua Bab Let’s Divorce. Mrs. Wright Is Done Playing Nice.: Bab 81 - Bab 90

His breathing turned uneven.He couldn’t process what he’d just heard.Lucas had stormed off, fury radiating from him.Evan remained standing there for a long time, unmoving.Finally, with trembling fingers, he pulled out his phone and opened his call log.Missed calls.So many missed calls.From Inkwood.From Marianne.From the head of his security team.Messages.From Marianne.From Lucas.Even from Patrick.He opened one.‘Evan, what the hell are you doing? Ruby went to Azure Heights at a time like this. That can’t be good. How could you turn your phone off?’Another.‘ Sir, something has happened to Madam. Please turn your phone on and call back immediately.’Another.‘ Sir, Mrs. Bailey brought people to the house. She won’t let the ambulance in. Please come back at once!’Even through the screen—He felt suffocated.What had he just done?His chest tightened so violently he almost couldn’t breathe.He immediately dialed the house.Marianne answered.“Hello,

Stella said nothing.The doubt in his voice hung in the air like something heavy and sour.Silence swallowed the room.She turned her head slowly and looked at him.Just looked at him.Without a word.And somehow that silence made him more uneasy than if she had shouted.Evan’s chest tightened under her gaze, but he pressed on anyway.“Even during your cycle, you shouldn’t take something that strong.”For a second, Stella genuinely didn’t know what to say.So that was it.Even now—He still didn’t believe she had been pregnant.In his mind, it was simply bad timing. A miscalculation. A dietary mistake.Her cycle.A bitter laugh almost escaped her.He tracked her cycle more carefully than she did.And yet—He still chose not to believe her.Seeing her quiet, he rushed to correct himself.“Fine. You were pregnant. I was wrong. I shouldn’t have doubted you.”He reached for her hand again.“I understand how much you want a child. But we never missed your monthly check

Evan stood there, expression cold.He didn’t move.Didn’t say a word.Summer grabbed the front of his shirt, fingers trembling.“It’s my fault. All of it is my fault.“I shouldn’t have relied on you.”Her voice cracked.“When I look at your face… I get confused. I thought you’re Steven. I think he’s still here. It’s my fault.”Evan’s eyes narrowed slightly.“Are you clear about that now?”His tone was ice.Summer’s crying faltered for a second.“I—I’ve thought about it. I have. But sometimes I can’t control it.” Her voice grew softer, more fragile. “Evan… don’t come see me or the baby anymore.“If that’s what makes Stella unhappy, then don’t come.“When she’s upset, she doesn’t just attack me. She hurts my family too. Just… don’t come.”Her tears fell harder now.Every word painted Stella as petty. Jealous. Vindictive.The elevator doors opened.Dora stepped out, carrying a bag.She froze when she saw Summer crying like that.And Evan standing there, unmoved.“Summ

Ruby forced her anger down almost instantly.“Evan… is there some misunderstanding between us?”“Misunderstanding?” His voice was low and dangerous. “You tried to have her killed today. Since when did you think you could interfere in my life?”Ruby froze.The repeated “my life,” the crude edge in his tone—Her temper flared again.“I didn’t do anything!”Evan lifted a brow.“Didn’t you?”“You can’t just believe Stella’s side of the story. Who knows what she ate to cause that bleeding? And now she’s claiming it was a miscarriage.“And I am your sister-in-law’s mother. You should at least show some respect and call me Aunt—”A loud crash cut her off.Evan had kicked over the bedside cabinet.Everything on top shattered to the floor.The room fell into chaos.Ruby’s words died in her throat.The violence in his posture—cold, controlled, deliberate—was enough to shake even someone like her.For the first time, she felt something close to fear.Evan stood slowly.Dropped

If Stella pushed hard enough, Ruby didn’t believe Evan would tolerate her temper forever.And Summer loved Evan.She truly did.“But the public opinion right now is against me.”Just mentioning the backlash made Summer’s chest tighten.She had never expected Stella to weaponize public opinion.That woman had no shame. No sense of face at all.And when it came to reputation—Ruby was even more furious.The powerful businesswoman image she had built in Harbor City for years had been ripped apart overnight.That damned girl.Ruby wanted to kill her.But she couldn’t.Not now.Andrew was still in Evan’s hands.Her frustration boiled over, and she dismissed Summer back to her own hospital room.Not long after, Alex arrived.“Madam…”He had heard Ruby was beaten at Inkwood, but he hadn’t expected her injuries to be this severe.Ruby didn’t care about her own condition anymore.“Go negotiate with Evan. Ask him what it will take for him to let Andrew go.”Alex nodded. “Und
