Let’s Divorce Mrs. Wright Is Done Playing Nice novel Chapter 942

“What else are you supposed to do?” Remi asked. “Go back to Eirden? Seymour and I went through hell getting you out. Don’t do anything stupid.”

“Amos was dragged into this through no fault of his own.”

He had only been carrying out Evan’s final request and arranging a way out for Stella.

Now the consequences had fallen on him instead.

Remi had no answer to that.

It really was an undeserved disaster.

“Don’t overthink it,” she said at last. “Amos knew what he was taking on. If he accepted the responsibility, then he must have ways to deal with the fallout. Whatever he’s losing now is only temporary.”

When Amos agreed to help Evan, he must have considered all the risks.

Stella was closely tied to Felix.

She was also the cherished daughter of the Hogarth family.

Of course Felix and Aaron would cause trouble once they began searching for her.

Amos had accepted the task knowing all of that.

He must have prepared accordingly.

Stella fell silent.

“All right,” Remi said. “What do you want for lunch?”

“Anything.”

Stella sounded distracted.

After giving the answer, she turned and went back to her room.

Seymour watched her leave, then looked at Remi.

“You talk too much.”

“She was going to find out eventually.”

What was the point of hiding it now?

Could they keep it from her forever?

Some things should never have been hidden in the first place.

Like the reason Felix had protected Summer.

Had he explained everything from the beginning, perhaps Stella might have understood.

Instead, they kept the truth from her until it festered into something else entirely.

By the time they tried to explain, it was already too late.

“If Amos finds out, he’ll punish you,” Seymour warned.

Then he turned and walked away.

Remi made a face at his back.

“He has bigger things to worry about right now.”

…

After returning to her room, Stella became lost in thought.

Memories of Felix and Evan circled endlessly through her mind.

Did she hate Evan?
