Chapter 486
Evan’s breathing grew unsteady again.
His mind flashed back to the six months after Steven’s death, when he had been returning to the Wright’s mansion constantly.
During that time, Felix had warned him more than once.
‘Summer is an adult. She doesn’t need you spending that much energy taking care of her. You should be putting your own family first p>
He had also said, ‘Summer is your sister-in-law. Keep a proper distance from her. Don’t make Stella sad p>
In the end, he had even said it outright.
‘The way things are between you and Summer is too unclear. If you keep hurting Stella like this, she’ll leave you eventually p>
And later, after Stella started demanding a divorce, Felix had told him, ‘Then divorce her p>
Evan had always thought those words were Felix trying to advise him as a brother.
Now, he finally understood.
All along, Felix had been protecting Stella.
Thinking of how Felix had appeared again and again to save Stella whenever Ruby made things difficult for her, Evan let out a mocking laugh.
“What right do I have to talk to you about friendship? What kind of friend am I to you p>
If they were truly friends, how could things between them have come to this?
Felix said, “Looking at things now, you really aren’t p>
Evan fell silent.
“From the moment I learned how you approached her, did you really think you still deserved that p>
Evan said nothing.
Did he deserve it?
No.
At this moment, those two words were painfully clear in Evan’s mind.
He did not deserve to be Stella’s husband.
And he deserved even less to be Felix’s brother.
He knew about the bond between Felix and Stella.
And he had taken Felix’s place.
How could he possibly deserve it?
Evan nodded. “You’re right. I don’t deserve it. I’m nothing. What could I possibly deserve p>

As soon as he finished speaking, Felix’s window began to roll up.
At the same time, Felix withdrew his icy gaze.
Looking at the final glance Felix gave him, Evan knew that the friendship between them was completely gone.
And just as Felix had said, he did not deserve it.
Felix’s car drove away.
As for Mr. Watsons, Felix had answered him directly. He would not allow Evan to use Mr. Watsons’s network.
He would not give Evan’s businesses in Eirden any chance to recover.
“Heh. Heh-heh p>
Fine.
Very good.
No matter what Evan did now, Felix was watching him closely.
He and Stella were truly attacking Evan from both inside and outside.
Evan got back into the car.
He lit a cigarette and took a few drags.
Patrick asked, “Sir, are we still going to see Mr. Watsons p>
They had been trying to set up this meeting for days. It had not been easy to finally schedule it for today.
But after seeing Felix with Mr. Watsons at a time like this, Patrick had a feeling the meeting would not go smoothly.
Evan closed his eyes. “What’s the point p>
Felix had already been so direct.
Clearly, Mr. Watsons’s side had already been blocked off by him.
Fine.
Stella hated Evan to the bone because of the children.
And now Felix hated him to the bone too, because of the pain Stella had suffered because of him.
Patrick said, “Then what do we do now? If this continues, Wright Group may p>
May what?
Patrick did not finish the sentence.
Dora, Fiona, and the others still had no idea just how tense the situation at Wright Group had become.
They were still placing all their hopes on Evan.
Hearing Patrick’s question, irritation crossed Evan’s face.
“Look into those matters first p>

“Yes, sir p>
They had to investigate.
So many things had happened recently, one after another.
And because he had never trusted Stella before, things had ended up like this.
