Chapter 728

Aaron got the news too.

He called Stella.

“You’re not divorced p>

“He ran p>

Stella’s voice was low.

The more she thought about it, the more foolish she felt.

No one had expected Evan to pull something like this.

Harbor City had been locked down so tightly.

And none of them had expected Lucas to be fooled by Evan.

If Lucas had not taken Evan out of Harbor City, there was no way Evan could have left on his own.

And now the whole situation had become a mess.

Aaron said, “Come back to Eirden. Leave the rest to me p>

Clearly, Aaron had reached his limit with his sister.

He had indulged her enough lately.

He had let her settle things at the Wright estate and spend far too much time there.

But now Aaron was worried about her.

When it came to Evan, it was better to make a clean break.

Stella said, “Okay. I’ll come back tomorrow p>

Everything that needed to be finished in Harbor City was finished.

It was time for her to go home.

Aaron asked, “Are you upset p>

“Yeah p>

Stella answered quietly again.

Evan had pulled something so ridiculous, and it left her feeling miserable.

And then there was the matter of their marriage.

Thinking about everything Evan had said when he proposed to her all those years ago…

Looking back now…

She had said Summer had turned herself into a joke.

But was she not the same?

She had saved Felix, yet had not even remembered what he looked like.

Later, when Evan brought up that incident, she had never questioned him closely.

She did not know how Evan had learned about what happened between her and Felix.

But that incident had been the main reason she accepted Evan’s proposal.

Aaron said, “There’s no point being upset. Come home first p>

At the moment she felt worst, her family’s comfort made Stella feel safer than anything else.

Stella said, “Okay. I’m coming home p>

She stayed on the phone with Aaron for a while longer before finally hanging up.

Jennifer came out of the bathroom with a towel wrapped around her.

“Evan already ran out of Harbor City, so why am I still here keeping you company p>

Earlier, Jennifer had said Felix asked her to come because he was worried about Stella and Evan rekindling things.

As if that were even possible after everything that had happened.

Jennifer said, “Heh. I’m used to sleeping next to you now p>

Stella always smelled nice, and Jennifer slept better with her nearby.

Jennifer honestly did not understand Evan.

He had a wife as lovely as Stella at home, yet he had gone chasing after his sister-in-law.

And now look at him.

The Wright family was ruined.

His sister-in-law turned out to be a serial cheater.

And now even his wonderful wife wanted nothing to do with him.

What a disaster.

Stella said, “I’m going back to Eirden tomorrow p>

Jennifer froze. “That soon? That’s so sudden p>

“Everything here is finished p>

“But you and Evan still aren’t divorced p>

They were not divorced, so how could this be over?

Stella said, “He’s not even in Harbor City anymore. My brother just told me not to worry about it p>

“Having a brother is the best p>

Still, divorce was a major matter.

Could the person involved really leave it entirely to someone else?

For most people, probably not.

But for the Hogarth family, it probably was not that big a deal.

“Once you go back to Eirden, are we not going to see each other for a long time p>

Jennifer threw her arms around Stella.

They had known each other for years and always lived in the same city. Whenever they missed each other, they could meet up.

Now they were going to be in different countries.

Jennifer was not used to it.

Stella squeezed her arm. “You can still come visit me whenever you miss me. I’ll send a plane for you p>
