Chapter 199
The humiliation she suffered outside Hernandez Group at noon was still fresh in her mind, and now Stella was saying this.
Stella let out a cold laugh. “Instead of standing here obsessing over whether Felix and I have something going on, maybe you should worry about how you’re ever going to get him to have anything to do with you.”
“Y-you…”
The provocation in her tone was unmistakable. Fiona was so furious she looked ready to pass out.
“Mom, look at her!”
Unable to do anything to Stella, Fiona turned straight to Dora.
Dora’s temples were already pounding. “Enough. What are you looking at me for?”
The last thing she wanted right now was to look at Stella.
That sharp tongue of hers felt like a needle, stabbing straight into people.
Fiona stamped her foot and shot Stella a vicious glare.
Right now, Stella should have been resting.
She had only been standing there for a short while, but she was already tired, so she found a place to sit
down.
Not far away, Evan’s voice came through.
“So Jane Gass is the only option?”
Dr. Jane Gass.
His people had only just arrived in Eirden, and they were already running into trouble just trying to get a meeting.
Dr. Gass had a reputation for being extremely difficult.

Before this, Evan had thought that no matter how strange a doctor’s personality might be, surely they wouldn’t ignore a patient’s life.
But this time, when his people couldn’t even get near her, he realized it was more than just a bad temper.
The doctor talked to Evan for quite a while.
By the time Evan came back over, his expression was grim.
Summer stepped forward and instinctively reached for his sleeve. “Steven, how is it?”
The moment that word, Steven, left her mouth, Stella clearly caught the change in Dora’s face.
It was no longer the same approving expression as before.
In the past, they had been more than happy to let Summer keep calling him Steven, because it deepened

Evan’s sense of responsibility toward his dead brother.
And with that, they could push him to accept Summer and the child.
But things were different now.
After everything Stella had stirred up in Harbor City, even with all Dora’s nerve, she probably wouldn’t dare let those two have another chance.
It wasn’t just the issue of public reputation anymore.
There was also the Summer family.
Whether Summer’s mother would survive this crisis was still up in the air.
Just as Summer was about to catch hold of Evan’s sleeve, before Evan could even avoid her, Dora stepped forward and pulled Summer away.
Summer’s hand closed on empty air, and her body went stiff.
She instinctively looked at Dora.
Dora gave her a cold, meaningful look.
Just one look.
Then Dora turned to Evan and asked, “Yes, Evan, what did the doctor say?”
She emphasized Evan, clearly saying it for Summer’s benefit.
Seeing that, the smile in Stella’s eyes turned even more knowing.
Just as she thought.
