Chapter 90
If Stella pushed hard enough, Ruby didn’t believe Evan would tolerate her temper forever.
And Summer loved Evan.
She truly did.
“But the public opinion right now is against me.
Just mentioning the backlash made Summer’s chest tighten.
She had never expected Stella to weaponize public opinion.
That woman had no shame. No sense of face at all.
And when it came to reputation-
Ruby was even more furious.
The powerful businesswoman image she had built in Harbor City for years had been ripped apart overnight.
That damned girl.
Ruby wanted to kill her.
But she couldn’t.
Not now.
Andrew was still in Evan’s hands.
Her frustration boiled over, and she dismissed Summer back to her own hospital room.
Not long after, Alex arrived. 1
“Madam…”
He had heard Ruby was beaten at Inkwood, but he hadn’t expected her injuries to be this severe.
Ruby didn’t care about her own condition anymore.
“Go negotiate with Evan. Ask him what it will take for him to let Andrew go.”
Alex nodded. “Understood.”
Evan.
They had practically been family.
And now, overnight, they were enemies.

Inside Stella’s hospital room-
Felix’s housekeeper arrived with food.

At the same time, Marianne brought food from Inkwood.
Jennifer glanced between the two.
“Which one?”
Stella let out a faint, cold laugh.
“After all the cold stares I’ve endured eating at the Wright house these past few years, you think I still have the dignity to keep eating their food?”
Jennifer nodded immediately.
“Fair point.”
She decisively picked up the food Felix had sent.
These past few years, Dora had treated Stella like she’d married into the family for their table scraps.
As if Stella had married Evan for a free meal.
Just then-
The door opened.
Evan walked in.
He saw Jennifer feeding Stella. Stella’s right hand was hooked up to an IV, making it difficult for her to move.
His eyes fell on the thermos.
Not from Inkwood.
He narrowed his gaze.
He’d seen that container before.
In Felix’s office.
The temperature in the room dropped.

Jennifer was about to lift a spoonful of shrimp to Stella’s mouth-
When the spoon was suddenly snatched away.
She froze.
Turned around.
Evan stood behind her, radiating hostility.
Her face hardened immediately.
“You? What are you doing here?”
Stella’s expression darkened as well.

Without a word, Evan grabbed the thermos from Jennifer’s hands.
And tossed it into the trash
The metal container hit the bin with a loud thud.
Jennifer stared in disbelief.
“Are you out of your mind?”
He had the nerve to glare?
What right did he have to look angry?
Evan ignored her completely.
He seized her by the arm, pulled her up from the chair, and took her place.
Then he opened the thermal bag Marianne had brought.
Removed the smaller container inside.
Jennifer’s voice turned sharp.
“She doesn’t want Wright family food.”
Evan turned slowly.
His gaze was cold enough to cut.
There was something lethal in it.
Jennifer swallowed.
She knew that look.
