Let’s Divorce Mrs. Wright Is Done Playing Nice novel Chapter 267

Chapter 267

Before this, Stella had literally burned down Inkwood Manor, and Evan still would not agree to a divorce.

So what changed now?

Because Summer’s daughter had died?

Stella said, “Summer’s child is dead, and he…”

She paused, then looked at Jennifer.

“He’s given up on me too.”

Jennifer froze.

Given up on her?

The way that sounded was deeply uncomfortable.

Because Summer’s child had died, Evan had finally given up on Stella?

What was she even supposed to say about a man like that?

Jennifer said, “So he really did pin the child’s death on you.”

Stella gave a faint, self-mocking smile. “There’s a reason people say disaster can fall out of nowhere while you’re just sitting at home. That saying exists for a reason.”

If they were talking about making a scene, then yes, Stella had absolutely done that these past few months.

Openly.

Without hiding it.

But when it came to the child, she had truly done nothing at all.

And yet the Wright family still pinned it on her.

At the end of the day, whatever Summer said, they believed.

Jennifer cursed under her breath. “This is insane. Why do they trust Summer so completely?”

Stella said, “Let them. I hope they trust her for the rest of their lives.”

There was something loaded in her tone.

Jennifer’s scalp prickled.

“The way you just said that… why do I suddenly get the feeling you’re enjoying this?”

It sounded like if the Wright family kept blindly believing Summer, something very bad was going to happen.

Stella only smiled at her and said nothing more.

Then she asked, “You full now?”

Jennifer nodded. “My stomach finally feels human again.”

She really had been starving earlier.

She had been so hungry she was practically dizzy.

But after one sandwich, she finally felt alive again.

Stella said quietly, “Honestly, the real reason Evan let me leave Mount Lara today was because when the police come to take me away, he wants it to have nothing to do with him.”

The second Jennifer heard that, her face darkened again.

“He actually called the police on you over Summer’s dead child?”.

“Dora and Fiona called the police.”

Jennifer scoffed. “Like he had nothing to do with it?”

Now it made sense.

She had wondered how Evan had suddenly come to his senses and stopped keeping Stellà confined.

“This man is rotten to the core,” Jennifer snapped. “How did you ever fall for him?”

She was furious.

Sure, she had seen mama’s boys before, but those were usually weak men with no backbone.

Did a man like Evan really need to be one of those?

Did he really need to be blindly obedient to his family?

All the messes ordinary people ran into in relationships, somehow Evan had every last one of them too.

Stella said, “He wasn’t like this before.”

“Yeah. He wasn’t.”

Jennifer wilted a little after saying it.

୮

Honestly, after watching Stella and Evan implode like this, she had lost most of her faith in marriage too.

What even was this?

It was unbelievable.

Back then, Evan had really been good to Stella.

Jennifer had seen it with her own eyes.
