Chapter 1239
Back then, the Redson family had probably been gambling too.
They had gambled that Leon would never abandon the family.
That he would never risk the Redson family’s reputation.
So they had pushed as far as they wanted.
Even after Leon had made it perfectly clear that he would never marry Monique, they still sent out all those wedding invitations.
In the end, they lost that gamble.
This time, Leon had never intended to compromise.
So he took Jennifer and disappeared.
Even now, the Redson family still had no idea where he was.
Evan lowered his head.
“How did Stella and I end up like this?”
His voice was bitter and strained.
He had never wanted this.
From the moment he married Stella, he had wanted to settle down.
He had wanted to build a real life with her.
He had imagined spending countless springs, summers, autumns, and winters by her side.
He had imagined growing old with her.
So why?
Why had they ended up here?
Now there was a gulf between them that neither of them seemed capable of crossing.
Lucas looked at him.
“When it comes down to it, you didn’t handle things as well as Leon did.”
It probably wasn’t what Evan wanted to hear right now.
But Lucas felt it was something that had to be said.
One of the biggest reasons things between Stella and the Wright family had gotten this bad was that their lives had become too tangled together,
If Evan had kept Stella from being dragged into so many conflicts with his family…
1/4
Maybe things never would have reached this point.
But there was little point talking about that now.
Evan said nothing.
For once, he didn’t argue.
Instead, he let out an even more bitter laugh.
“You’re right. I wasn’t as good as Leon.”
Among the four of them, Leon and Lucas had always seemed like the least dependable.
And yet in the end…
Evan had been the one who failed.
Leon had always seemed carefree and unserious.
Who could have imagined that when it came to love, he would know exactly what he wanted?
No one had expected him to defy his family so completely.
Not the Redsons.
Not even Evan.
Lucas sighed.
“No matter how much you hate her, I think you and Stella need to let this
“Otherwise, when does it end?”
Letting go wouldn’t be easy for Evan.
The Wright family had suffered devastating losses.
s go.
But if he refused to let go, then there might truly never be an end between him and Stella.
Evan fell silent.
When would it end?
The truth was…
He didn’t necessarily want it to end.
Some part of him still wanted to remain tangled up with her forever.
But how?
What was even left between them now?
Revenge?

Chapter 1239
Felix was right.
Evan didn’t really have the right to hate Stella.
+15 Bonus
Even before the truth about her mother came out, she had already hated the Wright family to the core.
So even without that misunderstanding, there probably still would have been plenty of conflict afterward.
The loss of their two children had become a thorn buried deep in her heart.
And when that thorn had first been driven in…
He had refused to believe her.
Lucas couldn’t tell what Evan was thinking.
