It was not that Fiona was vicious.
It was mainly because Stella had been too heartless during this period. So they could not be blamed for seizing the chance to be even more ruthless.
They had warned Stella before.
No matter what a person did, they should always leave themselves a way out.
But Stella had refused to listen.
During this period, hadn’t she been convinced she could keep standing above them and stepping on them forever?
Then when the day came that she was dragged down, they would naturally watch her lose everything and fall into disgrace.
Dora said, “Felix protects her because he can’t afford to offend Christian. After all, many of Felix’s businesses in Eirden rose with Hogarth Group’s support p>
“But you need to understand one thing. To Christian, who matters more? Stella, or his own wife p>
Fiona said, “Of course his own wife matters more. Women outside are just for fun p>
Dora said, “Exactly. So when Christian’s wife comes after Stella, if Felix still protects Stella, wouldn’t that mean offending Christian’s wife p>
Hearing this, Fiona suddenly understood. “Then that would count as offending Christian too p>
“Exactly! Once Christian’s wife goes after Stella, Stella and Christian will be completely over. At that point, how could Felix possibly keep protecting her?” 1
“That’s true!” Fiona nodded.
After hearing this, her heart finally felt much better.
It would not be long now.
Felix would protect Stella for three more days at most.
Thinking of how Stella would soon have nothing left in three days, Fiona and Dora both felt an unprecedented sense of satisfaction.
That night, Fiona and Dora slept especially well.
Meanwhile, after Felix and Stella parted, Evan saw Felix again.
Now, whenever he saw Felix interacting with Stella, his chest felt unbearably blocked.
The two men sat across from each other.
Felix swirled the red wine in his glass. “I didn’t expect you to hold out this long p>
His words were light, and they carried clear mockery.
During this period, neither Felix nor Stella had gone easy on Wright Group.
Now, Wright Group was already on the verge of collapse.

Clearly, as long as Evan agreed to Stella’s divorce terms, everything would end.
Yet Evan had actually managed to hold out for this long.
Even knowing that Wright Group would be completely destroyed if it remained in his hands, he had still held on until now.
Evan gave a cold laugh. “I was once worthy of being your brother. If I had no ability at all, how would that have been possible p>
Felix said nothing.
That was true.
Felix acknowledged Evan’s ability.
Of course, he also knew Evan was a ruthless man.
“You came to see me now because you’re planning to end everything?” Felix asked after taking a sip of wine.
Evan said, “Can I choose not to end it p>
End it?
He did want to end everything now.
The only question was how.
Naturally, he did not want Wright Group to end in his hands.
Felix did not speak. He only looked at Evan coldly.
Evan said, “Felix, in the end, we still reached the point where only one of us can stand p>
“Because of Stella? If that’s the case, I should be the one refusing to let you off. So agree to her terms and divorce her p>
Evan said, “Is that an order p>
“This is the final warning p>
Felix had been waiting for Evan and Stella to end things completely. Now, it was obvious that his patience was wearing thin.
Evan could see that too.
Looking at Felix like this, he only felt that Felix had become unfamiliar.
“She saved you. Why are you hurting her?” Evan asked through gritted teeth, his voice cold.
These past few days, whenever images of Stella and Christian flashed through his mind, his heart hurt so badly that he could barely breathe.
“I lied to her back then and made her think the person she saved was me. But I never thought of hurting her. I never thought of giving her to any man p>
