Let’s Divorce Mrs. Wright Is Done Playing Nice novel Chapter 927

The atmosphere in the study was oppressively tense.

When Felix entered, Aaron was holding a cigar between his fingers, and the entire room was thick with smoke.

Aaron looked at him.

“It seems she’s truly furious with you.”

Felix said nothing.

Was anger really all this was?

As far as he could see, Stella had moved far beyond anger.

She was disappointed in all of them.

“If she were only angry, that would be easier,” Felix said.

“You saw the footage?” Aaron asked. “She appears to have left with Evan’s people willingly.”

Evan.

The name alone darkened the mood between them.

Felix’s brows drew together.

“Evan is dead. Why would his people still come for her?”

That was the part he had been unable to understand.

Logically, once Evan was gone, he should have disappeared from Stella’s life completely.

Yet even after his death, his people had still come for her.

And Stella had chosen to go with them.

Back in Harbor City, she had once trusted Felix completely.

Now there was almost nothing left.

The thought left him restless.

He lit a cigarette and took several hard drags.

“What if Evan isn’t dead?” Aaron asked suddenly.

Felix’s hand tightened around the cigarette.

He stared at Aaron in disbelief.

“That’s impossible.”

He answered without hesitation.

Evan had been badly wounded when he fell into the sea.

That stretch of water was notorious for predators, and the scent of blood would have drawn them immediately.

She had gone with Evan’s people because they offered her a way out.

With Evan supposedly dead, she could follow them somewhere no one knew her and disappear.

“She cannot leave Eirden,” Felix said coldly.

If Stella made it out of the country this time, everything would become much harder.

He knew exactly how stubborn she was.

Once she escaped, finding her again would not be easy.

Aaron looked at him.

“And Evan?”

“He never believed my feelings for her were real,” Felix said. “This was probably the last arrangement he made for her.”

The words last arrangement left a bitter taste in his mouth.

Even in death, Evan refused to disappear quietly.

He had actually prepared a way out for Stella.

Only at the end of his life had he finally begun caring about what she wanted.

But what good did that do now?
