Chapter 516
It was not until Felix’s car drove away that Evan finally turned around and got into his own car.
Patrick had been waiting in the car the entire time.
Lately , everyone at Wright Group seemed drained and listless. Even Patrick, who had always been the most capable, looked
worn down.
Evan did not tell him to drive.
Instead, he lit a cigarette and began smoking.
He did not even know why he had come here after finding out Stella was at the biotech company.
Now that he thought about it, he had only come to make himself miserable.
He clearly wanted the divorce so badly now.
Yet when he saw her get into Felix’s car, his heart still felt as if it had been hollowed out.
“When a woman stops loving you and turns ruthless, she really can be terrifying,” Evan said with a sigh.
Patrick was silent.
Hearing that, he had no idea what to say.
So he did not respond to it.
Instead, he changed the subject. “Did you and Miss Rowan have another unpleasant argument because of Ms. Bailey?”
Whenever something happened in the past, Evan had always been used to blaming Stella. Patrick had been by his side long enough to know that.
So this time, with Summer and Frank, Patrick assumed Evan had probably dragged Stella into it again.
Seeing that Evan did not speak, Patrick continued, “Did Ms. Bailey say again that whatever happened between her and Frank had something to do with Miss Rowan?”
In Patrick’s opinion , giving Stella grief over this now would not do Evan any good at all.
Summer, Dora, and Fiona had nowhere else to go.
Those three women were firmly in Stella’s hands.
Especially Summer.
If she still dared to drag Stella into this, then she was purely courting disaster
Her livelihood was in Stella’s hands now.
If she tried to implicate Stella at a time like this, life at the old estate would only become even harder for her
Hearing Patrick bring this up only made Evan more irritated. He took two hard drags from his cigarette
When Patrick saw that Evan still said nothing, he knew he had probably guessed right
He could not help sighing “You already have a rough idea of what really happened now. You wronged her before.”
Patrick had already uncovered many things
Especially the timeline of Summer and Frank’s relationship. The two had been involved before Sununer married Steven.
And after she married Steven , the contact had never stopped.
As for the exact nature of Summer and Frank’stelationship, well, the only thing missing was catching them in bed with their
own eyes .
“I did wrong her,” Evan said.
When he said this, his voice carried a trace of helpless defeat.
After all , things had already reached this point.
Even if he had wronged her, so what?
Could they go back?
Just then, Patrick’s phone rang.
It was the hospital director.
On the phone, the director said, “Mr. Cole, Dr. Zimmerman has been dismissed from our hospital.”
“What do you mean?”
Dr. Zimmerman?
Wasn’t that the doctor who had previously diagnosed Summer with depression?
“We found that he accepted a large number of bribes, including one from Miss Bailey.”
Patrick fell silent.
A large number of bribes.
Summer had bribed the doctor too?
At this point, even without the director saying anything more directly, Patrick understood exactly what it meant.
He hung up and turned to look at Evan in the back seat.
Evan had already heard everything through the speaker.
At that moment, his brows were tightly knitted together.
Patrick said, “Sir, Ms. Bailey doesn’t have depression.”
Not “she might not.”
She did not
If she really had depression, why would she bribe a psychiatrist?
The fact that she had bribed him meant she had never been ill in the first place
Evan had heard the entire call through the speaker
