Seeing that Summer did not move, the smile at the corner of Stella’s mouth grew even more openly mocking.” Didn’t you say you would trade your life for his p>
She kept saying she wanted Stella to save the child, that she would pay with her own life.
Now, the two of them were facing each other like this.
Especially Summer. When she saw the coldness in Stella’s eyes, her heart could not stop trembling
“You… you’re trying to force me to die p>
Stella said, “Hah. Force you to die? What nonsense are you talking about? You were the one who said you wanted to trade your life for your child’s p>
“I’m giving you that chance now. I’m letting you make that trade. So how did this become me forcing you p>
Wasn’t Summer the kind of person who said anything she wanted?
She had done it in front of the entire Wright family.
She had done it in front of Evan.
Especially the first time she caused Stella to miscarry. Back then, Summer had cried uncontrollably in Steven’s arms and said, “It was all my fault. If she refuses to forgive me, I’ll pay her back with my life p>
Under those circumstances, she had still said something like that.
It had sounded as if, if Stella did not forgive her, Stella would be the one forcing her to the edge.
Stella was the one who had lost a child, yet in the end, she had somehow become the villain.
Didn’t Summer love saying whatever came to mind?
Then from now on…
Every word she said would be turned back on her. She would have to swallow the consequences of every promise
she had made.
Seeing Stella punish her like this, Summer felt every bit of strength drain from her body.
Seeing that she still did not move, Stella said, “What? You can’t do what you said you would do?
“Didn’t you love saying things like this before? Didn’t you say so many times that you would pay for your sins with your own life?
“Before, everyone in the Wright family was truly afraid you would die, so they stopped you. You never had the
chance to prove it.
“Now I’m giving you that chance. I’m letting you keep your word. And even that won’t do p>
Summer said nothing.
Her face turned even paler.
Cruel.
Stella was too cruel.

She had no heart at all. She did not care about anyone else’s life or death.
Summer took a deep breath and said nothing. She only lowered her head.
Stella said, “What? You don’t want to trade your life for your child’s after all? Do you think it isn’t worth it p>
Summer said nothing
Still, she said nothing.
Looking at Summer’s fear, Stella laughed softly. “Looks like you never really planned to give your life for your own child. So why say something like that p>
“You can even say polite empty words about your own child’s life p>
Every mocking word made Summer’s face grow paler.
After this, she finally understood that she could not speak carelessly in front of Stella.
Especially not promises she could not actually keep.
Stella said, “You actually thought you could use those words to morally pressure me. Who do you think you are?
“The Wright family treated you like you were important and spoiled you until you forgot who you really were. Did you think the whole world would fall for the same trick p>
Before, the Wright family probably really had fallen for Summer’s words.
But now, even they would not fall for it anymore.
It was their indulgence that had made Summer believe the whole world should revolve around her.
It was no wonder she had developed that illusion.
After all, her mother, Ruby, had once held such a high position in Harbor City. Because of that, no one had been willing to offend Summer.
Of course that had given her the illusion that the whole world should make way for her.
Summer’s body went so weak she could barely hold herself up.
Facing Stella’s words, she only felt humiliated. Still, she forced herself to grit her teeth and say, “I was wrong p>
