Chapter 832
By the time Stella changed and came downstairs, Felix had just walked in.
He looked tired, as though he had come straight from somewhere far away, but it did nothing to diminish
his natural elegance.
The moment he saw that she was dressed to leave, his brows drew together.
“You’re going out?”
Stella only gave a quiet hum in response.
That was all she was willing to offer him now.
She did not even want to say one extra word to Felix.
Faced with her cold distance, Felix looked helpless.
“I told you, Summer will be dealt with within a month.”
Stella said nothing.
A month.
She did not want to hear anything about timelines.
She only glanced at Felix without replying.
Felix stepped closer and placed his warm hands on her shoulders.
“Have Gray pull his people back, okay?”
Stella went still.
“Summer can’t be touched right now.”
“Can’t be touched right now?” Stella repeated. “Or will she never have to pay for what she’s done?”
Right now.
That phrase sounded painfully familiar.
Evan had said the same things before
Summer was pregnant with Steven’s child, so she needed to be looked after right now.
She was emotionally unstable during her pregnancy, so Stella needed to wait until things settled down.
Right now
Wait
Somewhere along the way, Stella had come to had the har
They always seemed to promise an endless wat
And she hated that feeling more than anything
Felix said nothing.
His fingers tightened slightly around her shoulders
“One month. Is even that impossible?
“If it’s Summer, then yes.”
Stella’s answer was unwavering.
A cold flash crossed Felix’s eyes.
She pushed his hands away and started toward the door.
After only two steps, Felix’s voice came from behind her.
“Are you planning to treat me the same way you treated Evan?”
Stella stopped.
“What do you mean?”
Treat Felix the way she had treated Evan?
Was he really choosing Summer completely now?
Was he willing to stand against Stella for her?
How was that any different from becoming her enemy for Summer’s sake?
“For this next month, you won’t be able to find Summer,” Felix said. “So you…”
“Then there’s nothing left for us to discuss.”
Stella cut him off before he could finish
He had already said enough
What else was there to talk about?
Felix’s face darkened at once.
“The Hogarth family is dealing with a difficult situation right now. Things are not as calm as they appear,
Stella ”
“So it would be unwise for me to become your enemy?”
She cut him off again.
Turning back, Stella looked straight at him.
“Is that a threat? Or do you have some kind of plan for the Hogarth family”
Felix’s expression changed sharply.
