Chapter 159
Stella was already in bed.
Jennifer was there too. These past few days, whenever she had time, she came to keep Stella company.
Right now, Jennifer was in the bathroom taking a shower.
As for Evan being in the hospital, Stella had not asked a single question.
But just as she got into bed, a text came in from an unknown number p>
‘He said there’s no need to get you out. It’s time you learned a lesson. Let you suffer in there for a while p>
Stella: p>
She did not need to think twice to know it had to be from Summer.
So the Wright family still did not know she had never actually been taken in.
But that line, no need to get you out, and then lesson and suffer…
So Evan thought she was locked up.
And not only was he not getting her out, he was saying she should suffer a little?
A cold smile tugged at Stella’s lips.
At that moment, the irony of her relationship with Evan hit harder than ever.
She replied:
‘Once that vice president seat at Wright Group is gone, you’ll be just like me. Sitting around doing nothing and living off others. Then let’s see what kind of standing you still have in the Wright family p>
On the other end, Summer’s face turned livid the moment she saw the message.
How did Stella know her position at Wright Group was hanging by a thread?
Could it really be Stella behind it?
r
Just thinking about that bunch of old stubborn men trying to push her out as vice president the moment the truth came out about the Redcrest Valley project made her furious.
They were saying if she stayed in that role, she would hurt Wright Group’s stock price.
Since when could one woman affect a whole company’s stock price?
A bunch of old fools.
Now that Stella had brought it up, Summer was sure she had something to do with it.
Grinding her teeth, she texted back:
‘Please. I probably won’t be the one living off others. You’re the one who’ll be doing it for the rest of your life p>

The truth was, that position really did matter to her.
She loved going to and from work with Evan every day, and it was also because of her “professional success” that Dora had spent years using her as a way to look down on Stella.
If she really lost that title, then what would she have left to hold over Stella?
No.
There was no way she was stepping down from that position.
Not a chance.
Stella replied:
‘Don’t worry. You definitely will p>
Seeing how certain Stella sounded, Summer was so furious she wanted to smash her phone.
So those old men suddenly pushing to remove her from the vice president role really was Stella’s doing?
How had she even managed it?
Summer’s breathing turned ragged with anger.
‘I’m warning you. Know when to stop p>
Stella replied:
‘Now you want me to know when to stop? Then maybe you should’ve stopped messing with me. This is fun
now p>
Even through the screen, Summer could picture Stella’s bright, playful face sending something so vicious.
So it really was Stella cutting off her way forward?
Summer was just about to send another text when she realized Stella had already blocked her.
When she tried again, the message failed to send.
“Ahhh p>
Summer let out a furious scream.
When Fiona and Dora walked in, that shriek made both of them flinch.
Dora frowned. “What now p>
r
When it came to Summer, what exhausted Dora most was her depression. It could flare up at any moment.
Six months.
Over these six months, Dora had gone from feeling sorry for her to feeling completely drained.
Her patience was wearing very thin.
