Cross My Tigress Face the Wrath (Stella) novel Chapter 140

Although Stella was putting up a tough front against Yorick, spreading the word about calling off their engagement herself, who could truly understand the heart of a girl like her?

Anyway, Jeremy warned Stella not to waste her time on Yorick. A man like that, even if you got what you wished for and ended up together, it was a life that could hardly be happy ever after.

Stella’s face changed a bit; she didn’t expect there to be such an issue between Yorick and Ursula.

"Thanks."

Jeremy left the velvet box behind, "I'm off, keep the gift."

It was meant for her after all; there was no taking it back. Jeremy wasn't one to take back what he had given!

...

Exiting Stella's office, Jeremy bumped into Yorick, who was on his way to see her.

Yorick's expression was sour. Seeing Jeremy coming out of Stella's office made him buzz with irritation!

A certain thought naturally popped into his mind.

As they passed each other, Yorick grabbed Jeremy's wrist abruptly, "What are you doing here?"

In his view, Stella and Jeremy had no connection.

So, Jeremy visiting Stella now, what could it be about!?

Jeremy looked at Yorick with a smile, "What do you think I'm here for?"

Seeing Yorick's face, Jeremy knew he must've misunderstood.

Normally, Jeremy would clarify things a bit, but not for Yorick! He hated how Yorick would always think so lowly of Stella. He looked forward to Ronald tearing Yorick apart.

Jeremy's nonchalance infuriated Yorick even further.

But before he could act, Jeremy spoke first, "You sure you want to fight with that unrecovered hand and your leg? Don't blame me if you can't walk afterward."

That comment only fueled Yorick's rage!

His hand was fractured, needing a cast for over a month as the doctor said. Though the leg injury wasn't severe, it still hurt, making him limp a bit.
