Chapter 482
Evan said, “I don’t care what you want Christian to do for you. Divorce me now.
“Otherwise, I’ll make sure you and that old bastard are both finished.”
His voice over the phone was full of gritted anger, as if he would strike back at her in the very next second.
As if he would personally drag Christian down from his position.
But to Stella, his anger sounded like nothing more than a joke.
Faced with Evan’s forceful threat, Stella only said three words.
“Go ahead, then.”
With that, she hung up.
Evan was still walking when he heard the beeping sound of the call being cut off.
His head nearly exploded.
She was not afraid of his threat.
Fine.
Very well.
Then he would show her exactly how he would drag that old bastard Christian down from his high seat at Hogarth Group.
When that happened, he would like to see what Stella and Felix had left to be so arrogant about.
Thinking of all the benefits Felix had gained from Hogarth Group over the years, Evan’s eyes darkened.
Without Hogarth Group, Felix would probably end up just like him now.
He wanted Felix to taste what it felt like when everything fell apart and there was no way to fix it.
After being hung up on by Stella again and again, Evan’s anger only grew worse.
The moment he got into the car, he called Stella again.
Stella still answered.
That was how she was now. She did not block Evan, but the way she answered his calls was even more suffocating than when she used to refuse to pick up at all.
Just like now.
“You still have the strength to call me?” she said. “Looks like I didn’t block the road far enough. Should I move the barricade farther out?”
“How much farther do you want to move it? You’ve already turned the entire Wright family upside down. Are you still not satisfied?”
Just the current distance already made entering and leaving extremely inconvenient.
He was a grown man, so he could manage.

But Dora, Fiona, and the others had to walk that long stretch of road. A single trip was enough to leave them weak for two days.
And she still wanted to move it farther out?
At that point, she might as well just break their legs instead of going through all this trouble.
Stella said, “How could I possibly be satisfied? In your eyes, I’ve always been greedy and impossible to please?”
Just like what Dora had said before.
Marrying into the Wright family was already the greatest blessing Stella could have asked for, so she should stop being greedy and stop wanting more.
Evan said, “Let’s end this cleanly.”
Stella fell silent.
This was exactly how she had once asked Evan for a divorce.
Back then, Evan had refused.
And now, this was how badly he wanted the divorce.
Before Stella could speak, Evan continued, “Let’s part on decent terms. Then I won’t bother wasting effort going after Christian.”
This was his final concession and his final warning.
He was telling Stella that if she continued to make trouble for the Wright family, then he would no longer be polite to her lover.
Evan continued, “Christian’s status and glory all come from Hogarth Group. If something happens to Hogarth Group, he’s nothing.”
“You think you’ve latched onto some powerful backer? His foundation is hollow. He could collapse at any moment.”
Evan analyzed the situation sharply, his tone harsh and aggressive.
Seeing that he was still so convinced of her relationship with Christian, Stella said, “Then go ahead and waste some effort on him.”
“Stella Rowan!”
Hearing her indifferent tone, Evan flew into a rage again.
What was this attitude?
