Chapter 817
The moment Leon’s mother showed up, Jennifer had already backed down.
And yet now…
“I hope everything works out for you,” Stella said.
Hearing how composed Jennifer sounded, Stella felt slightly relieved.
She was afraid Jennifer would end up trapped the way Stella had once been with Evan.
“Why do you sound so drained too?” Jennifer asked. “Can’t you just walk away from Felix?”
Exactly.
Walk away.
That was how Jennifer dealt with anything that hurt her.
Her first instinct was always to leave.
Stella had already been hurt once. She should know better than anyone what to do.
But Stella sounded so worn down.
Clearly, it was not that simple.
And it really was not.
After Felix helped Summer, nothing about this felt simple anymore,
“It isn’t only Felix,” Stella said. “It’s my brother too. Jennifer, I’m starting to feel like I never should have come back to Eirden.”
Coming home was supposed to feel like returning to a safe harbor.
But now, faced with everything happening around her…
“Your brother?” Jennifer asked. “What happened with your brother?”
Aaron was Stella’s real brother.
What could possibly trouble Stella about him?
“He’s with Yara.”
Jennifer went silent.
Yara?
“Who’s that?”
The name sounded familias, but Jennifer could not place it right away
Then it hit her
She drew in a sharp breath
“Yara Wright? Evan’s sister?”
What kind of joke was this?
Aaron was with Yata?

And by with, Stella could not possibly mean what Jennifer thought she meant.
“Yeah. Evan’s sister.”
“What do you mean, they’re together?”
Jennifer still could not believe it.
Aaron had not even met Stella in person when he had already showered her with expensive gifts.
Only Evan could have been so oblivious that he had never questioned where all those things came from.
“They’re dating.”
Jennifer went quiet again.
Dating.
The word shut her down completely.
“How is that even possible?”
She rejected the idea immediately.
She had never met Aaron in person.
She had only seen him on television.
Even through a screen, his authority and severity were unmistakable.

A man like that, standing at the top of the world and looking untouchable, did not seem like someone who even knew how to
date.
Hearing that Aaron was in love made Jennifer feel as though an idol had fallen from his pedestal.
“That’s what the people around me are saying,” Stella said.
“They’re messing with you, right?”
The words Aaron and dating did not belong in the same sentence.
“Do you believe it?”
Stella fell silent.
Why could she not believe it?
T
It was not confirmed beyond all doubt, but the people around her would not make up something like that
And who would dare spread rumors about Aaron?
When Stella did not answer, Jennifer’s disbelief slowly gave way to reluctant acceptance
“Really?”
“Probably,”
“This is a complete disaster,” Jennifer said, drawing in another breath
And it really was.
Stella had just destroyed the Wright family
Choct
Now Aaron was supposedly dating Yara?
Was that even a relationship that could possibly work?
And Aaron being in love still sounded impossible.
But no one would dare make up something like that about him.
If people were saying it this openly, it had to be true.
