Chapter 134
Dora’s chest tightened. Her lips pressed into a thin line, her eyes burring as if she wanted to tear Stella
apart.
She remembered now.
No matter how much she had tried to bully Stella in the past, Stella had never let her lay a hand on her.
She might have tolerated the insults, listening without reacting.
But the moment Dora tried to get physical, Stella would become a completely different person.
That was probably why Dora had never liked her.
She looked soft on the outside, but inside, there was something sharp. Something that would not bend.
And Dora hated being defied.
Especially by someone younger.
Stella flung her hand away and glanced at Evan.
Just moments ago, when Dora had raised her hand, Evan had kicked a servant aside and started toward
them.
But the second Stella grabbed Dora’s wrist and said those cold words, he stopped.
A mocking smile curled on Stella’s lips. “You already hit your son, and now you want to hit me too? You’re quite the mother.”
“You… shut up!” Dora snapped.
Stella said coldly, “All these years, how many times have you tried to hit me? When have I ever let you touch me?”
Both Dora and Evan were speechless.
That line hit Evan hard.
His chest tightened painfully.
He had not known.
He truly had not known how far Dora had gone in mistreating Stella.
Taking away the things he had given her had already been humiliating enough.
But it had not just been words.
There had been physical aggression too.
No wonder she was so determined to divorce him.
At that moment, it hit Evan.

Even without Felix, Stella probably still would have asked for a divorce.
No one in the Wright family had ever treated her kindly.
When they lived together, she was mocked and humiliated over and over again, even threatened with
violence.
After she moved out, they took everything he had given her
Evan closed his eyes.
Then he strode forward, grabbed Stella’s wrist again, and shoved her back into the car.
As he moved to get in from the front, Dora stepped in his way.
“You saw that. She has no respect for her elders. You still want her?”
Dora was furious.
She had always known that beneath Stella’s gentle appearance was a stubborn, unyielding streak.
But she had never expected Stella to push Evan this far. To actually stir things up at the family estate.
Burning the house…
If that had really happened, what would the Wright family have become?
“I do,” Evan said. “Why wouldn’t I?”
“She’s a menace! Are you blind?”
“She wasn’t like this before.”
Dora froze.
The air went dead silent.
Her vision swam with anger. “What is that supposed to mean? You’re saying I forced her to become like this?”
“Evan, I’m your mother. Do you even hear what you’re saying?”
At this point, Dora had completely lost control.
And Evan’s defiance only made her hate Stella more.

“She’s turned this family upside down. Summer’s-C-section stitches keep reopening. The public backlash still hasn’t died down. And after all that, you still want her?”
“What do you even want her for? So she can make sure this family never has a day of peace?”
