Actually from the moment things blew up, he already knew that Stella was serious this time.

“Alright, alright. Why are you glaring at me? You should be figuring out how to calm her down,” Lucas said, clearly at a loss.

Wasn’t Evan usually good at smoothing things over with Stella?

So what had happened this time?

Things had been blowing up for days now, and he still had not managed to calm her down?

“Or have you not even tried to placate her these past few days?”

Evan’s breathing turned heavy again.

Leon, who had been silent the whole time, saw the look on Evan’s face and quickly shot Lucas a warning glance, telling him to stop.

At a time like this, Evan probably did not want to hear a word.

But Lucas completely missed the hint.

Seeing Evan’s face darken, he kept going anyway.

“This has to be because Summer keeps stirring things up, right?”

“Your wife isn’t the petty type. Before, all it took was a little coaxing and she’d be fine. This time it has to be because Summer pushed things too far, and now even you can’t smooth it over.”

Honestly, Lucas had a point.

During the first two years, no matter how upset Stella got, she and Evan had not been living with the Wright family.

Back then Steven was still around, so no matter how much Summer acted up, there were limits.

Even if Stella got mistreated at a family dinner, at least afterward she could leave and not have to see them again, which made her easier to coax.

But this time was different.

Summer had been causing trouble for over half a year,

No wonder even Evan could not fix it now.

Take the past two days, for example. He really had wanted to make things right with Stella.

But either something happened on Summer’s side, or the baby she had just given birth to developed another problem.

Thinking about how Summer had called him again right before he left Inkwood House, Evan suddenly thought-

Maybe Stella had burned the house down because she had finally reached her limit.

What he still did not realize was that Stella had set that fife because Fiona had provoked her.

Lucas sighed. “If you ask me, you should just let your wife go. The Wright family is too toxic. Everyone in that house is a mess.”

The moment he said that, the air turned even colder.

Leon tugged at Lucas’s sleeve. “Enough. Stop talking.”

Had he not seen how dark Evan’s face already was?

The truth was, they might all have underestimated how much Evan actually cared about Stella.

When he married her, they had all assumed it was because he did not want the kind of burdens that came

with a marriage alliance.

After all, in marriages between equal families, those rich girls all had tempers of their own.

What well-born man did not want someone sweet and easygoing by his side?

And Stella had been like that before.

But now that she had finally exploded, her temper was going off like fireworks. At this rate, she was about to set all of Harbor City ablaze.

Then Dora called.

“Is Stella trying to get herself killed?”

The moment she heard Inkwood House had burned down, Dora lost it too.

She had grown so used to pushing Stella around that she could not handle this kind of rebellion from her.

“Ask her what the hell she thinks she’s doing!”

Evan snapped, “Why do you think she’s doing it? Because you people drove her to it!”

Lucas and Leon both froze.

Hearing Evan roar like that, both of them stiffened.

He was… defending her?

On the other end, Dora sounded stunned. “What… what did you say?”

Evan said, “I said she did the right thing!”

Dora went silent.

Lucas and Leon did too.
