Chapter 642
Compared with Lucas’s awkward hesitation, Leon was doing a little better.
In his view, as long as they did not get involved in anything with Evan and were simply meeting for drinks, Stella probably would not go so far as to destroy them.
Evan glanced at Lucas coldly and irritably, then threw out two icy words. “Look at you.”
Lucas said, “The main thing is that Stella is making such a huge scene right now. We really don’t dare get involved!”
The way Stella was making trouble was simply more terrifying than any whirlpool of power.
Seeing Lucas and Leon this afraid of Stella, Evan gave a bitter laugh. “Don’t worry. I won’t drag you into this.”
“As long as you don’t ask us to help, you won’t drag us in,” Lucas said directly.
Now that the Wright family had become like that, Harold was overseas, and Old Mrs. Wright was out of town, with neither of them having anywhere to stay.
If they were talking about help, then Evan needed help in far too many places right now.
But no matter what, Lucas and Leon would never dare help.
Evan gave a cold laugh.
At the mention of help, the bitterness in his laugh deepened. “She really is ruthless this time.”
If they were talking about ruthlessness, the ruthless streak Stella had shown this time was something she had never shown before.
After saying that, Evan tipped back a glass of liquor and emptied if
Lucas and Leon exchanged a glance. For a moment, neither of them knew what to say.
They had already said everything they should have said before.
There was nothing they could do. Back then, Evan had refused to listen, so things had become what they were now.
If they were to say anything now, it could only be words of comfort.
Unfortunately, when it came to Stella, even if they wanted to find something to comfort Evan with, they could not
Leon said, “So now you know why she’s being this ruthless?”
Evan had called them out at this time, and he no longer carried the same furious rage as before.
Clearly, he now knew why Stella was being so ruthless.
If he still did not know, then this drinking session would definitely be filled with murderous anger.
Hearing Leon’s words, Lucas, aiso looked instinctively at Evan. “Why?”
At this moment, he also sensed that something was wrong with Evan.
Before, whenever Evan saw them, as soon as Stella was mentioned, the anger in his voice could barely be suppressed.
But today, bitterness seemed to hang over him from head to toe.
Clearly, something else must have happened between him and Stella.
Something had changed.

But in the next instant, Lucas thought of something.
He knew far too well why Stella had been so ruthless toward Evan during this period.
But he did not dare say it.
Now, seeing Evan like this, he realized Evan must know too.
Honestly, being Evan’s friend while also being someone Stella could still talk to had truly trapped Lucas in the middle this time.
Lucas had even sworn that he would never again become close friends with both halves of a married couple.
That kind of friendship was impossible.
Absolutely impossible.
When asked why, Evan said nothing.
Why?
He poured himself another glass and drank it down. “Because of her mother.”
Leon said nothing.
Lucas said nothing.
Sure enough, he knew.
Leon, however, was shocked. “Stella’s mother? What happened to her?”
“Her mother was killed by my mother.”
Leon said nothing.
At that, he instinctively glanced at Lucas.
in
Lucas seemed either too stunned to react or something else, but after hearing such a devastating piece of news, his face remained calm, without the slightest reaction.
It was as if he had known all along.
Evan also glanced at Lucas. When he saw that Lucas had no expression at all he instinctively frowned.
Leon said, “Is that true?”
Leon could hardly believe it.
Evan downed another glass. “It’s been fully investigated. There’s no mistake.”
“I never imagined there was this kind of connection between you and Stella.”
