Let’s Divorce Mrs. Wright Is Done Playing Nice novel Chapter 176

Chapter 175

There was something quietly commanding about him.

Not just the pressure he gave off, but a strange sense of security too.

Like no matter what it was, if he stepped in, it would be handled.

Stella felt her scalp tighten under that look. In the end, she nodded. “Then… thank you.”

Felix peeled a few more shrimp for her.

Stella quickly waved him off. “No, no. I’m full.”

After lunch, when Felix was about to leave, he looked at her and said, “Summer doesn’t have depression.”

Stella: “…”

So she really was faking it.

Honestly, Stella had suspected that all along.

A woman with that many schemes in her head would absolutely fake being sick if it helped her.

Felix left.

Jack was waiting outside.

The moment Felix got into the car, Jack said, “Mr. Wright has been trying to find out where our car went.”

At that moment, Felix’s mind was still on Stella’s clumsy attempt at apologizing.

Hearing that Evan was tracking his movements, Felix smiled faintly. “Ignore him.”

“Mr. Wright’s side has also had Patrick step into several of our projects. If nothing changes, he’s probably trying to poach them.”

Poach projects.

The Wrights and the Hernandez family were both major powers in Harbor City.

Their companies overlapped in some industries, but when it came to projects, they had always stayed in their own lanes.

Now Evan had suddenly sent Patrick to interfere with theirs.

There was no need to guess what he was trying to do.

It was all because of Stella.

At first, it had only been anger in words.

Now it had escalated to business.

Felix said calmly, “Which projects?”

“The Lido one. Patrick met with Lido’s CEO this morning.”

“And the Port Yves project too. It looks like he’s retaliating against you over Miss Rowan.”

The moment Jack said retaliating, the cold in Felix’s eyes sharpened behind the gold-rimmed lenses.

Felix lit a cigarette and took a drag.

Then he let out a cold laugh. “Leave him alone. He won’t have time for this much longer.”

Jack had expected Felix to talk about striking back.

After all, anyone who crossed him usually got hit back hard.

But now, when it came to Evan, he was saying to leave it alone?

“Mr. Wright looks fully set on coming after us. Are we really not doing anything?”

If Evan actually managed to get into those projects, the losses would not be small.

Felix said, “Very soon, his energy will have to go elsewhere.”

There was even a trace of satisfaction in his deep voice.

Jack did not fully understand.

Felix took another drag and said, “He keeps refusing to divorce Stella. For him, that’s about to become a very big problem.”

The Hogarth side had already been deeply unhappy because of everything the Wright family had done.

Before, Stella had kept a lid on things.

That was the only reason Aaron had not made a direct move against Evan.
