Chapter 875

Evan’s heart jumped into his throat.

“This isn’t the time to be stubbom.”

“If I want to be stubborn, I’ll deal with the consequences myself. What’s wrong with that?”

Whether in the past or now, she had always been the one left to deal with the consequences of her own choices.

Evan fell silent.

Her words hit him hard.

A suffocating ache spread through his chest.

In the end, Stella hung up on him.

Before ending the call, she added, “Don’t send anyone. I don’t need them.”

And she would never leave with his people.

As the call disconnected, Evan rubbed his brow in frustration.

Sid stood beside him.

“How did it go? Should I arrange for someone to pick up Mrs. Wright?”

Mrs. Wright.

The people around Evan knew how to read the room.

They had previously called her Miss Rowan.

But now that they saw how anxious Evan was about her, they immediately changed how they addressed her.

Evan took another drag from his cigarette and stared into the distance.

Then he said in a deep voice, “I’ll go myself.”

“You’re going personally? But the Black Sea…”

Sid stopped there.

The next few days were critical for their operation near the Black Sea.

Evan could not afford to leave right now.

He closed his eyes .

“She can’t go to Ravaria.”

His instincts told him that Stella would face even more trouble if she went there .

Too many people already knew her true identity.

At a time like this, she either needed to remain with the Hogarth family …

Or come to Seaborne .

Evan had begun to understand Aaron’s true attitude toward his sister .

To men like Aaron and Felix , anyone could become a pawn.

So even if Stella remained with the Hogarth family, she could not stay there for long.

Then there was Felix .

Evan still did not know why Felixhad gone to Eirden.

But he was certain Felix’s apparent devotion to Stella was not as genuine as it seemed.

There was a strong possibility that Stella was merely one piece of whatever plan had brought him to Eirden.

Coldness flashed through Evan’s eyes at the thought.

If that was true, then there would be no reconciliation between him and Felix.

When Amos learned that Evan intended to go to Eirden personally and bring Stella back to Seaborne, he looked baffled.

“Do you really think she’ll come with you?”

Evan had said she would refuse to leave with anyone he sent.

But he seemed to think she would suddenly agree if he appeared in person.

Evan said nothing.

Already irritated, he became even more annoyed by Amos’s question.

He took a hard drag from his cigarette.

“Want me to give you an idea?” Amos asked.

Evan shot him an impatient look.

“What idea?”

“The real problem is Felix. He’s trying to steal your wife. Are you seriously not going to fight back?”

Amos found Evan’s silence strange.

Evan was normally someone who never let a slight go unanswered.

Yet he had been unusually restrained about Felix going after his wife.

Now that Evan had returned to Seaborne, making trouble for Felix would hardly be difficult.

“ You’re suggesting I get rid of Felix?” Evan asked.

Amos stared at him.

Was that even possible?

He had wanted Aaron Hogarth gone for years.

But wanting it did not mean he could simply make it happen.

Felix was no ordinary man.

“Maybe you should remember how Felix trapped you in Harbor City and made it impossible for you to leave . ”

Given the difference in their strength at the time , taking Felix down was hardly realistic .

Unless Felix came to Seaborne .

But Felix would never willingly come here.

“ Say something useful.”

Evan only wanted to hear Amos’s supposed ideu.

Nothing else.

“Your wife must have some feelings for Felix too.”

Evan went silent.
