Chapter 491

Mrs. Mendes’s expression grew grave. “It’s entirely possible.”
Summer said nothing.
“After all, Mr. Wright saw you get into Mr. Holland’s car with his own eyes. Even if he says he believes you, it may only be on the surface.”
When someone had seen something for themselves, they would believe it at least a little.
So this time, when Summer said Evan believed her, that belief might only be superficial.
In truth, the seed of suspicion had already begun to grow wildly in Evan’s heart.
Summer’s expression darkened.
“Then what am I supposed to do?”
If Evan was suspicious, then once he kept investigating, that matter might be uncovered too.
If Evan really found out about that, then she would be finished.
At that thought, Summer’s heart twisted tight.
Mrs. Mendes said, “There’s nothing you can do.”
“What do you mean, nothing?”
Hearing those words, Summer immediately panicked.
“Don’t forget why my mother sent you to stay by my side. This is a matter of life and death for me!”
With nowhere else to vent her anger, Summer aimed it at Mrs. Mendes again.
Mrs. Mendes’s grave expression instantly cooled.
“If Mr. Wright is truly investigating you and Mr. Holland, then there really is nothing we can do.”
“You…”
“And from what Madam said, her trouble in Eirden still hasn’t been resolved.”
Meanwhile, Summer was trapped in the old mansion under Stella’s control. She could not do anything either.
That was why Mrs. Mendes said there was no way out right now.
“Before Mr. Wright suspected you and Mr. Holland, all your hope was with Mr. Holland. But things are different now.”
Frank had been beaten into the hospital. For all they knew, Evan might already be quietly making trouble for the Frank’s family too.
After thinking for a moment, Mrs. Mendes added, “The Hollands may have gained a foothold in Harbour City, but its foundation still isn’t completely stable.
“Even though Evan is surrounded by problems now, taking down the Hollands is still well within his ability.”
Mrs. Mendes laid out the stakes for her. She did not say everything directly, but her meaning was clear.

Summer’s recklessness had hurt herself.
After hearing that, Summer felt all the strength drain from her body.
“No. The Hollands can’t fall.”
If the Hollands fell, then she truly would be finished too.
Stella.
It was all because of that trouble Stella had stirred up.
If Stella had not interfered, Frank’s plan would basically have been completed by now.
By then, why would they still need to fear the Wright family?
But now?
Frank’s entire plan had fallen apart at the last step.
And Summer might be finished too.
“It’s all that bitch Stella’s fault!”
Summer was so furious she nearly lost her mind.
She had never felt this powerless in her life.
Stella used to be so weak. Back then, anyone in the Wright family could bully her whenever they wanted.
But now?
Who could do anything to her?
The more Summer thought about it, the more her chest hurt with rage.
She wanted to kill Stella.
But she could not do a thing.
Mrs. Mendes said, “Right now, stop blaming other people. The most important thing is to survive first.”
“Survive?”
Hearing that word, Summer looked at Mrs. Mendes in disbelief.
Had she really fallen this low?
Was surviving actually difficult for her now?
