Let’s Divorce Mrs. Wright Is Done Playing Nice novel Chapter 10

Chapter 10

“You… you’re agreeing to it?”

So the moment Evan showed up, she knew how to behave. Typical. All an act.

“I’ll go now,” Stella said calmly. “I’ll give her a proper apology.”

With that, she threw back the covers and got out of bed.

Dora had pushed so hard for her to apologize to Summer. There was no need to guess why. Summer had clearly put on a perfect victim act in front of her.

Dora snorted. “At least you know when to behave.”

At the words know when to behave, Stella let out a quiet laugh and headed straight for the door.

As she passed Evan, he reached out and grabbed her arm.

“That’s enough.”

One look at her and it was obvious she wasn’t going to apologize.

Stella yanked her arm free. “Enough of what? If I don’t apologize, do you think your mother will leave me alone?”

If she wasn’t going to have peace, then no one would.

She turned to leave again, and just as Evan was about to grab her once more, Dora suddenly seized his arm.

“Let her go,” Dora snapped. “She did something like that today. What’s wrong with making her apologize?

“If she doesn’t, how am I supposed to explain this to Ruby?”

Ruby was still abroad in Eirden, probably negotiating export deals. If everything went smoothly, she’d be back in a day or two.

Thinking of the marks on Summer’s face made Dora furious all over again. How was she supposed to answer to the Baileys?

Evan twisted his arm free, his entire presence turning cold.

“From now on,” he said flatly, “don’t ever meet her alone again.”

Dora froze. “What do you mean? I-”

“Summer has Ruby backing her, and you can’t explain yourself to that family,” Eva ut in sharply. “So you take it out on someone with no family behind her instead?”

Dora was speechless.

Before she could respond, Evan strode toward the door, his expression dark.

He’d barely taken two steps when a servant rushed over in panic.

Chapter 10

“Madam, Mr. Wright, you need to come quickly. Ms. Stella, she… she-”

Dora’s heart skipped. “What did she do now?”

“She-she hit Ms. Summer. And she trashed the room. It’s a complete mess.”

The servant was frantic.

Evan and Dora’s faces changed instantly. Both of them rushed out.

Inside Summer’s hospital room.

Stella had one hand tangled in the hair at the back of Summer’s head, yanking her close. Her eyes were ice-cold.

Summer was terrified. “Are you insane? Let go of me right now!”

That damned Stella. An orphan with no parents, no family to back her.

Who gave her the nerve to act like this?

Looking at Summer’s deathly pale face, Stella narrowed her eyes. “So, do you still want that apology?’

“You-”

“You sent Dora to pressure me,” Stella said calmly. “You wanted me to bow my head in front of you that badly?”

Summer’s scalp burned with pain. “Let go!”

“This is my apology,” Stella said coldly, tightening her grip. “Do you still want it?”

She’d played the victim nonstop, pushed Dora to step in, and forced her to apologize.

If this was how Summer wanted her to bow her head-

Then this was exactly how Stella Rowan would do it.
