Chapter 143

“No, that’s not what I meant!”

“So you admit it, then?”

Summer: “”

Faced with Stella’s sharpness, she could not say another word.

Thankfully, Alex arrived just then.

Since last night, Ruby had been trying to reach Stella. Whatever was happening in the Eirden had clearly pushed her to the edge.

Compared to yesterday at Inkwood House, Alex’s attitude toward Stella was far more respectful now.

“Mrs. Wright.”

The moment she heard that title, Stella let out a soft, almost dazed laugh.

The sound echoed down the quiet hallway, sharp with mockery.

“Mrs. Wright? Not gonna call me Miss Rowan anymore?”

“Yesterday at Inkwood House, in the house Evan and shared, you kept calling me Miss Rowan. Didn’t seem to bother you then.”

Alex and Summer both fell silent.

The moment she said ‘in the way of her daughter’, even Evan’s expression darkened.

Ever since Steven’s death, he had not been unaware of what Ruby and the Wright family had been planning.
