Chapter 748
Evan had handed every last dollar over to Stella.
Naturally, Stella lifted the restrictions on the Wright family members who had been stuck overseas.
Harold and Old Mrs. Wright returned to Harbor City.
No one knew how they had managed to get back.
But returning only made the blow hit harder.
All four of them were crammed into Yara’s tiny apartment, and there were not nearly enough beds.
Old Mrs. Wright was furious.
“You really are a disaster to this family! I regret ever letting you marry into the Wrights.”
It was gone.
Everything was gone.
While they had still been overseas, Dora had told them over the phone that Stella had taken control of the entire Wright family.
At the time, they had refused to believe it.
But now that they were back and could see for themselves that nothing remained, Old Mrs. Wright nearly could not catch her breath.
A disaster.
They were all disasters.
“The Wright family has been ruined because of you. What kind of bad luck did we have to suffer, ending up with someone like you?”
Old Mrs. Wright was beside herself, hurling insult after insult at Dora.
Dora felt wronged too.
“It wasn’t me who agreed to give her the entire Wright family. How does that make me the disaster?”
A disaster?
From the moment Stella made her demands, Dora had never agreed to them.
Who had?
Harold and Old Mrs. Wright.
They had been unable to hold out overseas, so they had told Evan to give Stella everything.
And now they were turning around and blaming Dora?
What kind of logic was that?
Old Mrs. Wright snapped, “So you think you did nothing wrong? You think it’s all our fault? Dora, do you understand why the Wright family ended up like this?”

“Have you forgotten why Stella came after the Wright family in the first place?”
Dora said nothing.
Those words left her speechless.
Yes.
It had started because of her.
Stella had gone after the Wright family because of what Dora had done.
Dora had not agreed to Stella’s demands.
But what would refusing have changed?
They would only have dragged things out. In the end, Stella would still have taken everything from the Wright family.
Dora sniffed, her chest tight and heavy.
Fiona stood nearby, too afraid to say a word in the face of Old Mrs. Wright’s sharp, cutting tone.
She only felt sorry for Dora.
Over the years, Dora had taken plenty of abuse from Old Mrs. Wright.
For all her glamour outside the family, Dora had never held much real standing within it.
Every time Fiona saw her mother being scolded, it hurt.
Then Old Mrs. Wright gave a cold snort.
“This is the apartment you bought for Yara? Why is it so small? Couldn’t you have bought something bigger? How are we supposed to live here?”
She did not have much patience for Yara either.
Old Mrs. Wright had always favored sons over daughters. In the Wright family, the grandchildren she cared about most had been Steven and Evan.
As for her granddaughters, she had barely spared them a thought.
She had especially disliked Dora’s favoritism toward Fiona.
But now, seeing that Dora had bought Yara such a small apartment, she was even more dissatisfied.
This was the only property Stella had not taken from the Wright family.
