Evelyn's tone was calm but firm. “You handle this.”
“Yes, ma'am,” the butler replied.
It had to be handled.

If this matter wasn’t dealt with properly, people would start thinking the Dawson family couldn't keep them in

One dirty trick after another-how was a young couple supposed to live their lives in peace?
The butler nodded again. “Yes.”
Evelyn rose and left the sitting room.
As she passed through the living room, she spotted Stella sipping a glass of juice.
When Stella saw her, she smiled sweetly. “Mom.”
Evelyn let out a sigh.
She walked over and pulled Stella into her arms.
Her words carried weight. “If | hadn’t raised you myself, I'd never have let you marry Dawson family.”
Stella blinked. “Huh?”
Evelyn released her. “You're too soft. Too kind.”
And in their world, kindness was the last thing anyone needed.
Stella pouted, her eyes full of quiet protest.
“I just want the truth before | act,” she said.
Abel had already stepped in. Stella believed the truth would soon cto light.
And if there was solid proof that Melissa was behind it-
Then Stella would not hold back.

Evelyn's gaze softened at her daughter's pleading look, full of innocence and hurt. “From now on, don’t involve

Stella frowned. “What?”
“I'll handle it,” Evelyn said gently. “All right?”
Stella went quiet.

Evelyn truly didn’t know what to do with her sometimes. Stella always needed solid proof before she moved.
But in their world, evidence didn’t always matter.
Sometimes, from the very moment something happened, the right answer was to strike back hard.
Stella held onto Evelyn's arm, leaning against her with affection. “Mom.”
“There, there. Good girl.”
For a long time, Evelyn had believed Stella had to measure up to Abraham, strong enough to hold her own
beside him.
But now Evelyn understood.
They had spoiled her from the start, cherishing the innocence that set her apart.
Because of that, they'd kept her away from the darker side of their world.
The Dawson family had weathered storm after storm, but Stella had always been sheltered, her world untouched
by it all.
Those three years in Rivermount had been an accident.
She had changed since coming back-but Evelyn wouldn't let her lose herself completely.
“Are you going out again?” Stella asked softly, watching her.
Evelyn nodded. “Yes. Be good. Eat properly, all right?”
Even when she wasn’t home, Evelyn always had people watching over Stella.
She knew exactly how much Stella ate, what she liked, and what she didn’t.
Just earlier, she had arranged for fresh fruit to be delivered from Cedarcrest Mountain.
Evelyn left.
And at her command, the Bogden family was soon thrown into turmoil.

As for the Ashen Pact-there was no need to even mention it. They had already been in chaos, and now things
only got worse.
The morning wind should have been crisp and fresh.
But that morning, the entire Morris family had gone mad.
Lina rushed to Artemis. “Mother, what is going on? What's going on between the Dawson family and the Tom
family?”
Artemis looked weary. “What about them?”
The mention of the Dawson family and the Toms clearly drained her.
“My Ironridge-" Lina’s face was pale with fury. “A woman named Marie cin and just seized it. Mother, she
took it from me!”
Her jaw tightened, her teeth grinding on the words.
She was Ashen Pact’s heir. She would never allow anyone to take something from her.
And now someone had dared to seize what was hers? What kind of madness was this?
At her words, Artemis’s face went pale. She stared at her daughter, shaking with fury.
Lina frowned at the sight. “What is happening?”

When the call cin from Ironridge, she nearly exploded.
Someone had dared to move in on her territory. To take Ironridge right out from under her

Without even checking whose it was? Did they have a death wish?

Her teeth clenched on the words.
