Chapter 424
As for Summer’s depression, Lucas had always suspected she was faking it.
Stella thought the same.
But Evan had always believed it was real.
So every time Summer had an episode, he had to go to the Wright residence.
And whenever he went there because of Summer, Stella would inevitably explode.
One thing led to another, and somehow everything had become what it was now.
After thinking it over, Lucas still called Evan.
At that moment, Evan was almost at the intersection outside the old residence.
When he answered Lucas’s call, his tone was cold. “What is it?”
Clearly, because Lucas had just said he wanted to pull out of the Newcrest project, Evan was unhappy with
him.
In Evan’s eyes, as a brother, Lucas was practically stabbing him in the back.
Lucas said, “Haven’t you noticed that Summer hasn’t had an episode in days?”
Evan fell silent.
Lucas clicked his tongue. “She’s been put through all this by Stella, and she still hasn’t had an episode. Did she forget to have one?”
A moment ago, Lucas had thought Leon’s comment about forgetting to have an episode was rude.
Now, on the phone with Evan, he couldn’t help saying it himself.
Evan’s face darkened. “What are you trying to say?”
“I’m saying I don’t think she’s sick.”
“Did Stella infect you with her nonsense?”
Stella had always suspected Summer was faking it.
Now Lucas was saying the same thing?
When Lucas heard Evan’s reply, his heart went completely cold.
Suddenly, he understood the helplessness Stella must have felt every time she tried to talk to Evan about these things.
With an attitude like this, how was anyone supposed to get through to him?
Any time someone said something bad about the Wright family, he blew up.
It had been like that when Stella said it.

And now, even when Lucas reminded him as a brother, it was still the same.
Lucas said, “Fine, fine. Teas wrong.”
What the hell.
So much had happened lately, and Evan was still this confident in the people around him?
Lucas truly didn’t know what to say about him anymore.
Furious, he hung up.
Leon asked, “Evan didn’t believe you?”
“He didn’t even believe Stella. You think he’d believe me?”
Leon said, “You shouldn’t have bothered reminding him.”
Lucas was silent.
Yes.
He really shouldn’t have made that call.
On Evan’s side, his car had once again been stopped at the intersection.
Because of Lucas’s call, he was already irritated, and now the car couldn’t even drive all the way home.
He had to get out and walk for more than forty minutes.
And he had to walk fast.
By now, the sky had already gone dark.
Patrick looked at Evan awkwardly. “Why don’t you stay at my place for the night?”
“Aren’t you afraid she’ll burn down your house?”
Trevor fell silent.
Fair enough.
After hearing that, he no longer dared offer.
୮
Stella had been no different from a madwoman lately. She attacked anyone who got too close.
She had burned down every Wright family property, and the Shaw family had been the first to suffer.
Under these circumstances, every hotel had already been warned not to take in the Wrights.
If anyone took Evan in now, their own house might really be burned down.
“Then should I walk in with you?”
“No.”
Evan tossed out the word irritably and got out of the car.

He had to admit, Stella was truly ruthless now.
