Chapter 28
Just as Stella had anticipated, she was the only one who managed to sit desen anut enjoy a calm, uninterrupted
meal
Over at the Wright household, however, everyone was teetering on the edge of losing control
Especially Evan.
By late morning, Summer’s scandal had already exploded across the city.
And that was when Patrick came in with bad news.
“Sir,” he said carefully, “those reports… we can’t suppress them.”
Evan’s expression darkened instantly.
His sharp, hawk-like gaze snapped toward Patrick, pressure radiating off him in waves.
“What did you just say?”
His low voice carried unmistakable danger.
Can’t suppress them?
In Harbor City, was there really anything the Wright family couldn’t bury?
Patrick understood exactly what Evan was thinking and explained quickly.
“We’ve managed to control all domestic accounts. But the posts driving the traffic are coming from overs The IPs are all foreign.
“And when we reached out,” he added grimly, “they didn’t even respond.”
Not just Evan. Even Patrick felt a rare surge of anger.
In all his years working under Evan, handling crises big and small, this was the first time anyone had blatantly ignored the Wright Group’s influence.
To put it bluntly-
“Mrs. Wright is serious this time. And she came prepared.”
By “Mrs. Wright,” he meant Stella.
By releasing her marriage certificate with Evan, the person hit hardest was Summer
This was a direct, calculated strike.
Silence fell.
Evan’s fingers paused mid-motion around the cigarette. The light in his eyes cooled, inch by lu
“Still haven’t found her?” he asked.
Patrick’s expression grew heavier as he shook his heat
“No She hasn’t returned to Azure Heights. And she hasn’t grine to Miss Tanner’s plare auther”
Azure Heights
She had bought that property barely two months after Steven’s death.
Had she already been planning to leave him back then?
If so, this divorce agreement wasn’t a bluff. She meant it.
Evan’s face hardened further. He grabbed his phone and dialed Lucas.
The call connected almost immediately.
“Hey,” Lucas answered.
“Where is she?” Evan demanded.
Earlier, when Evan couldn’t reach Stella at all, he had asked Lucas to try calling her.
Lucas chuckled lightly.
“Evan, did you forget something?”
Evan: “……”
“I’m on your side,” Lucas continued. “She’s not taking my calls either.”
“Enough. Get to the point.”
The point was simple. Where was Stella?
Jennifer’s side wasn’t cooperating. Lucas was the only person close to Evan who still had a decent relationship
with her.
“I asked where she was,” Lucas said. “She immediately asked if you put me up to it. I said no. She didn’t believe me and hung up.”
Evan: “……”
His breathing went uneven.
She’d even hung up on Lucas.
That meant she was cutting off everyone connected to him.
Lucas sighed.
“Evan, you really crossed a line this time. She’s furious. This won’t be easy to fix. ”
Not easy?
Evan couldn’t even find her.

He pluched the bridge of his aching nose. Lukas was still rating, but an abruptly embed the call

Just then, Patrick stepped forward again.
“Sir, Madam called. She asked why the situation still isn’t under control. She said Ms Summer hasn’t eaters anything all day.”
Evan’s irritation spiked.
“Tell her to keep Summer away from the internet for now,” he said coldly.
Patrick hesitated.
“Madam said it’s impossible to stop it completely. If this continues, Mrs. Wright might not be able to handle the psychological shock.”
Since morning, the first topic had trended.
Now it was everywhere.
Summer had been pushed straight onto the center stage as “the mistress.”
Patrick knew very well-this was Stella pulling out all the stops.
And Madam’s meaning on the phone had been clear.
If this didn’t stop soon, Summer might collapse again.
At that moment, Dora’s call came through.
Her voice exploded through the line.
“Freeze all her cards. Every single one. She must have spent a fortune buying those trending spots.”
Yes, the Wright family was always under public scrutiny.
But a surge this aggressive? Dora didn’t believe for a second that money hadn’t been poured in it.
“She’s got nerve,” Dora fumed. “Living off the Wright family all these years, and now using Evan’s money to attack us.”
The phrase buying trends made Evan’s brow tighten.
“Did you hear me?” Dora pressed. “Cut off her finances. Don’t let her throw more money into this scandal.”
Evan closed his eyes briefly.
“I understand.”
He ended the call.
Taking a long drag from his cigar, he exhaled heavily. Patrick stood silently at his side.
Evan spoke again, his tone dark.
3/5
“Today’s media storm… Did she pay for it?”
Patrick thought for a thornetit
“Most likely. The scale looks like paid amplification.”
