Chapter 1284
Thinking back to what had happened yesterday, Yara still felt a chill run through her.
Normally, she liked to think she wasn’t afraid of death.
But when she had truly come face-to-face with it, the fear had swallowed her whole.
She was still injured.
Why had Aaron made her leave the hospital so soon?
The answer was simple.
He was hiding her.
Because Michael really would kill her.
And all she had done to trigger his wrath was say something she shouldn’t have to Stella.
As for Evan and the Wright family…
Yes, Stella’s revenge against the Wrights had originally been based on a misunderstanding.
But as far as Yara was concerned, Michael didn’t care about right or wrong.
He was simply fiercely protective of his daughter.
When it came to Stella, even if she was wrong, Michael would still stand on her side.
That was how fiercely he protected her.
Evan’s voice turned cold.
“He was trying to kill you?”
“Yes. That’s why you never should’ve come to Eirden.”
On the other end of the call, Evan sat on a couch in the dimly lit room, his expression growing darker by the second.
Michael had nearly killed Yara.
And Stella had just stood by and watched?
She hadn’t reacted at all?
Evan’s face turned colder.
“You can’t let him find you,” Yara warned. “If he does, he really will kill you.”
She had no doubt about that.
She didn’t even dare imagine what kind of bloodbath Eirden might soon become.

“And what about you?” Evan asked.
Yara paused.
Her?
What about her?
“You’re still planning to stay in Eirden?”
“I need to…”
“You still think you can get revenge?”
Yara fell silent.
Could she?
She truly wanted Stella dead.
But Aaron had already made it clear that Yara had never even been one of the choices.
So the kind of situation she had imagined, where Aaron would be forced to choose between her and Stella the way Evan once had to choose between Stella and the Wright family, was never going to happen.
Aaron had simply refused to choose at all.
And somehow, that only made Yara want Stella dead even more.
“Sir.”
Zane suddenly walked in.
Evan looked up.
“What is it?”
“We’ve been blocked from leaving Eirden.”
Evan went still.
So did Yara on the other end of the call.
The moment she heard Zane’s report, her heart clenched.
Blocked from leaving Eirden?
Michael had done that, hadn’t he?
He had no intention of letting Evan leave.
What exactly was he planning to do?
Yara’s heart jumped into her throat, panic washing over her.

Evan frowned.
“Michael did this?”
“Yes.”
Zane nodded.
There was no one else it could have been.
Evan’s breathing grew heavier.
“So she really is that cold toward me.”
At the very least, that was clearly the attitude Stella had shown in front of Michael.
Otherwise, Michael never would have moved against him so freely.
Or perhaps…
Michael had wanted to deal with Evan for a long time.
He just hadn’t been sure how Stella truly felt.
And during the period when everyone believed Stella was dead, Michael himself had been devastated and constantly in and out of critical condition, leaving him with no time or energy to deal with Evan.
But now Stella had been found.
And she had made her attitude toward Evan perfectly clear to Michael.
What a coldhearted woman.
For a moment, Evan didn’t even know what to think of her.
He had always believed Stella was heartless.
Only now did he finally understand what true heartlessness looked like.
How could someone disregard every bit of their past together so completely?
