The Scorned Heiress: No More Mercy novel Chapter 905

In reality, Evan never wanted to marry Jade in the first place. He had simply been backed into a corner by his overbearing mother. Much like Jake, Evan had his wake-up call the moment Jade's true, venomous nature was exposed. Though he hadn't seen every layer of her deceit, his feelings for her had evaporated long ago. He just hadn't expected her to be even more disgusting and calculated than he initially thought.

It is a well-known secret in high society that Evan is a massive mommy's boy, and with Lana's iron-fisted control over the family, he rarely has a say in his own major life choices.

"Mom, I told you from the very beginning that Jade was bad news," Evan complains, shifting the blame onto Lana. "We never should have aligned ourselves with her."

He truly believes that if his mother hadn't forced the engagement, he might have already successfully won Tara back.

Lana sighs, feeling thoroughly unappreciated. "How was I supposed to know she was that kind of person? No one could have predicted she would spectacularly sever ties with the entire Dennis family like that."

She had only wanted to secure a powerful, supportive wife to elevate her son's status. Who could have guessed the situation would combust so violently?
