Chapter 176
Thinking about how stubborn Evan had been about refusing to divorce Stella, Jack said, “Mr. Wright still has no idea who Miss Rowan really is. If Mr. Hogarth makes a move and Miss Rowan keeps pressing the issue, this marriage might actually fall apart.”
The entire Wright family had always looked down on Stella.
No one would have guessed she was the daughter of the Hogarths, the most powerful financial family in
Eirden.
A family that practically held the country’s economic lifeline in its hands.
And her father, Michael Hogarth, also held an extremely high title within Eirden’s royal circles.
With a background like that, if the Wright family ever found out, there was no telling how much they would regret it.
“She’s smart,” Felix said. “For all we know, she and her brother may have already figured out how to hit Evan from both sides.”
Jack: “”
Now that would be something worth watching.
Evan had never truly believed Stella would leave him.
He was too confident.
Too full of himself.
Just as Felix expected, Stella had already made her move.
Not long after he left, she got a call from Aaron telling her he had already started moving against Wright Group.
After hanging up, Stella turned to Gray and said, “Have the lawyer get the lawsuit ready.”
He still would not divorce her?
Fine.
Then he could find out what it felt like to be pulled in too many directions at once.
Gray nodded. “Understood.”
Then, remembering something, he added, “We’ve finished digging into that doctor. She’s taken plenty of bribes over the years. She’s even helped rich people force girls into abortions. As long as the money is there, she’ll do anything.”
The doctor he meant was the one Ruby had bribed to handle Stella’s case before.
In the hospital room, she told Stella she could not take anything too rich after the miscarriage.
Then the moment she turned around and spoke to Evan, she claimed Stella had never been pregnant at all.

That change in her story made it obvious Ruby had bought her off.
And if she could be bought that easily, then clearly she was the type who did anything for money.
Stella said, “Then call the police.”
A small-time nobody like that would have her whole future destroyed by a single police report.
“And let the reporters know too.”
She wanted Evan to see the truth for himself.
And while she was at it, she wanted the Summer family exposed all over again.
Especially Summer.
She wanted to rub a little more salt in the wound and make her see exactly how badly she and her mother had been torn apart this time.
Gray nodded. “Understood.”
Back at the Wright family estate, Dora had barely slept after all the chaos Evan caused the night before.
Today was the latest she had ever gotten up since marrying into the family.
It was already noon when she finally came downstairs.
Fiona had slept just as late.
As she came down to eat, she kept checking her phone. “Weird. Evan called me a bunch of times.”
Dora asked, “What’s going on with that bitch in there?”
She had poisoned Evan, and even after that, Evan still came looking for Dora over her.
Dora truly could not understand what kind of spell Stella had cast over her son.
How else could his head be this muddled?

Fiona said, “I’ll ask in a bit. Don’t worry. I already made the arrangements. For all we know, she got tortured all night and never slept a second.”
There was obvious satisfaction in her voice when she talked about Stella suffering.
She had wanted to deal with that woman for a long time.
Even back when Stella was quiet and obedient, Fiona had never liked her.
