Let’s Divorce Mrs. Wright Is Done Playing Nice novel Chapter 968

No matter what, the family he was building with Jennifer should have come first.

Yet now Leon seemed just as incapable of understanding that as Evan had once been.

Leon’s breathing grew heavier at Lucas’s blunt criticism.

“How am I acting like Evan? Jennifer had Monique abducted. Do you have any idea what she might do to her?”

This was not about which woman mattered more.

Jennifer had gone directly after Monique.

That was wrong, no matter how he looked at it.

“What is she really trying to do?” Lucas asked. “She wants to get away from you. Just look at what you’ve become.”

“What have I become?”

“You’re exactly like Evan was.”

Lucas did not soften the truth.

When Stella had finally been pushed past her limit, she had turned all her anger toward Summer.

And Evan had reacted exactly as Leon was reacting now.

He had done nothing but protect Summer.

Now Leon’s desperation to save Monique looked no different.

“How is this the same?” Leon demanded. “Am I supposed to stand by and let Jennifer have Monique killed? Is that what it takes to prove I’m on her side?”

“If you had truly been on Jennifer’s side, she never would’ve had Monique taken in the first place. None of this would be happening.”

Leon fell silent.

Every word Lucas said was sharp and merciless.

He was not taking Leon’s side at all.

He wanted to force Leon to see what he was doing before it was too late.

Lucas had never dared speak this bluntly to Evan.

Even when Evan was clearly wrong, Lucas had only offered a few cautious reminders.

But with Leon, he held nothing back.

He did not want him to become another Evan.

“Jennifer has been getting torn apart online for almost three days now, hasn’t she?”

Leon said nothing.

The question made something in his chest jolt.

“And you know who started it, don’t you?”
