Chapter 370

Before this, Summer and Dora had both wanted Stella driven out of the Wright family.

But who would have thought that Stella would now act like the owner of the house and make the people who had once been the real owners unable to live there at all?

In the past, Summer had wanted Stella out of the Wright family more than anything.

And now, she wanted to leave Harbor City in Stella’s place just as badly.

Yes.

Leave Harbor City.

Go somewhere without Stella. Somewhere even the air had nothing to do with her.

Dora said nothing.

Seeing Summer this agitated, Dora pressed her lips together. Her expression looked especially grim.

Fiona also tugged at Dora’s sleeve. “Mom.”

“What now?” Dora snapped, her patience completely gone when Fiona tugged at her too.

She was already beyond irritated.

Fiona said, “I want to leave Harbor City too.”

It was not just Summer.

Even Fiona wanted to leave Harbor City now, to get as far away from Stella as possible.

They had all seen the truth clearly.

As long as Stella was in the Wright family, none of them could expect a peaceful day.

They had seen what happened at the hotels and restaurants today.

Stella was truly ruthless.

Dora said, “Have you forgotten? You still have to win over Felix.”

The moment she mentioned Felix, Dora felt suffocated.

Fiona froze.

At the mention of Felix, she fell silent.

Felix…

Did she not want to be with Felix?

Of course she did.

But the problem was Felix himself.

Dora turned to Summer again.

Summer said, “I can’t wait anymore.”

As for Fiona, Summer had already seen through her. Fiona was useless.

She could not win Felix over at all.

If Summer waited for Fiona to win Felix over, Stella would have tortured her to death by then. Even if Stella did not deliberately torment her, she would starve her to death.

And Summer was still recovering after giving birth.

How could Stella be so cruel? 1

Sure enough, someone raised in an orphanage had no upbringing at all.

How could she do something like this to a woman who had just given birth?

No matter what, the most important thing now was to avoid Stella.

When Dora heard Summer say that, her already ugly expression darkened even more.

No matter how they looked at it, there was no reason for them to leave in Stella’s place.

If they left, what would that make them?

Fiona said, “Mom.”

“You…”

“You should come with us too. Leave the Harbor City mess to Evan.”

Now they could see it clearly.

Only by leaving Harbor City would they be able to live decent lives again.

Dora was still reluctant. But when she thought of how Stella had tortured them over the past day and night, she could barely stand it either.

In the end, under Fiona and Summer’s persistent urging, she agreed and drove straight to the airport.

On the way there, Dora called Evan.

At that moment, Evan was already at the company.

He had a splitting headache over everything involving Stella.

The moment he arrived at the office, he had gone straight into a meeting.

Halfway through the meeting, he received Dora’s call. His voice was cold when he answered.

“What is it?”

“I’m taking Summer and Fiona to Westbridge for a while. You can deal with Stella yourself,” Dora said through gritted teeth.

She was extremely dissatisfied with the way Evan was handling Stella.

He was too slow.

So slow that they could not endure it anymore.

Evan said, “You’re going to Westbridge?

“What else are we supposed to do? Stay in the Wright family’s old estate and let her torture us to death?”

“What are we even supposed to be in Harbor City now? We can’t check into hotels, and restaurants won’t let us eat. She’s trying to cut us off completely!”

Dora shouted into the phone.’

The thought of how they had been treated at the hotels and restaurants today made her furious all over again.

Then she added, “I hope by the time we come back, she’ll already be out of the old estate. Better yet, out of Harbor City. I never want to see her again.”

Evan said nothing.
