Chapter 555
This version of her was even more terrifying than when she had been openly making a scene.
At least back then, her anger had felt direct and satisfying.
Now, she was simply deadly.
Evan took a deep breath. “You’ve even reached into Mieda now. It seems you hold quite a special place in Christian’s heart.”
Stella said, “Isn’t it good to have that kind of power? At least it means you can’t bully me anymore.”
Evan said, “Who bullied you? Who could possibly bully you?”
Hearing the word bully now only made Evan want to laugh.
Stella gave a cold little laugh. “You can’t do it now. But weren’t you all having a wonderful time bullying me before?”
Evan said, “Before, that was…”
“That wasn’t bullying? Is that what you wanted to say?”
Before Evan could finish, Stella cut him off with a mocking tone.
Of course.
When the knife was not cutting into their own flesh, people never truly understood the pain.
Evan knew exactly what kind of person his mother was.
He knew what kind of person his sister was.
And he knew what kind of person Summer was too.
But so what?
He was a Wright.
They were all Wrights.
No matter what they did, it would probably become one simple sentence once it came out of Evan’s mouth.
That was just how they were.
Yes.
That was the most common excuse.
Stella still remembered one time when he had spoken to her about Fiona Had he not said it so lightly?
He had said, “That’s just how Fiona is She’s always had a sharp tongue. Don’t take it personally”
So Fiona was allowed to say whatever she wanted because “that was just how she was “But it Stella got upset, somehow Stella was the one being unreasonable.
Evan said nothing.
Hearing Stella’s words, his lips moved slightly as if he wanted to say something
But after thinking about it, he realized that no matter what he said now, Stella would always find a way to strike back.
In the end, Evan swallowed his words.
+15 Boni
Stella said, “Now that I won’t let you bully me anymore, none of you are happy. How funny.”
And wasn’t that exactly what this was?
When they could suppress her, everyone had been pleased. Evan had acted as if it did not matter either.
Now that she refused to be bullied, it had become her fault.
Evan said, “Didn’t I take you to live at Inkwood Manor? You didn’t get along with them, so I took you away.”
“Before I married you, you said Inkwood Manor was our marital home. What is a marital home? It’s the place a couple is supposed to live together after getting married. What do you mean, you took me there?”
Evan fell silent.
Stella said, “And Inkwood Manor was under Fiona’s name. You haven’t forgotten that, have you?”
Although that place had now burned down until nothing was left, when it had still been standing, it had always been under Fiona’s name.
Evan said nothing.
Again, it was the question of who Inkwood Manor had belonged to.
He already had so many things weighing on him during this period. Now that Stella had brought this up again, his anger becam even harder to suppress.
“Is this why you’ve been turning the entire Wright family upside down lately?”
