Jennifer sighed.
“Maybe this is just your fate.”
Perhaps Stella was simply destined never to meet a good man.
Evan had broken her heart completely.
Jennifer had thought Felix would be different.
But now he had disappointed her too.
“Is Evan really dead?” Jennifer asked.
She had heard the news from Leon.
When he first told her, she had been stunned.
She had always assumed a bastard like Evan would be impossible to kill.
Yet Leon had told her Evan was dead.
The news had spread throughout Harbor City over the past few weeks, but Jennifer still found it difficult to believe.
“Yes,” Stella said quietly. “It’s true.”
“Does someone like him really die that easily?”
Stella fell silent.
Did he?
Whether it made sense or not, he was dead.
Since arriving in Sevi Valley, Stella had rarely allowed herself to think about their past.
She had also avoided thinking about how Evan had actually died.
She did not want to revisit memories of a man who had destroyed every feeling she once had for him.
And yet, on the rare occasions when he crossed her mind, a dull ache still spread through her chest.
“How did he die?” Jennifer asked.
“It’s a long story,” Stella said. “And it had something to do with me.”
“What? Because of you?”
Jennifer stopped herself.
If that was true, what would Evan’s death do to Stella?
He had failed to cherish her while he was alive.
Then he had died because of her.
What was Stella supposed to do with that?
“He had Summer killed,” Stella said.
Jennifer was stunned.
