Let’s Divorce Mrs. Wright Is Done Playing Nice novel Chapter 985

The call ended.

Aaron remained in his study, smoking one cigarette after another as Stella’s words replayed in his mind.

By the time he reached his fifth cigarette, he suddenly rose to his feet.

“Gray.”

“Are we going to Seaborne, Mr. Hogarth?”

They had already received word that Felix was on his way there.

That meant Stella had to be in Seaborne.

Aaron had spent so long searching for her that his patience was nearly gone.

Surely he wanted to go and bring her back now.

“Why would I go to Seaborne?”

He was going to search that old man’s study himself.

Aaron had no idea whether Stella was telling the truth.

But he had been looking for that map for years.

Even if there was only the slightest chance she was right, he could not afford to ignore it.

…

In Sevi Valley, Stella received word of Aaron’s movements almost immediately.

When she learned that he had not followed Felix to Seaborne, she breathed a quiet sigh of relief.

“So his interests really do come before everything else.”

The information she had given him was not even reliable.

She had merely decided to test whether it would be enough to draw Aaron away from Litt.

Yet the result had surprised her more than she could say.

Never underestimate a man who valued his interests above all else.

He truly could abandon anything when enough was at stake.

Stella drew in a deep breath.

At this point, she no longer knew what to say about him.

Remi entered the room.

“Amos has begun the operation.”

“Tell him that even though Felix and Aaron have both been drawn away, he still needs to be careful.”

Stella knew how calculating and cunning those two men could be.

Amos still needed to guard against the possibility that they were only creating a diversion.

“All right.”

Remi did not know what to say now that Stella had involved herself after all.
