Cross My Tigress Face the Wrath (Stella) novel Chapter 191

Yorick was on the edge of losing his mind.

The moment he saw that man's car pull into the driveway, everything from the past month crashed over him like a wave.

“When did this house finally find an owner?”

“Not too long ago, maybe just this past month,” Orion mused aloud.

Everyone knew that the place had been vacant for ages.

Yorick snorted. “Just this past month, huh!”

That month had been a roller coaster. Ever since he and Stella decided to postpone their wedding, it felt like one thing after another.

But he couldn’t shake that day at Stella’s place when he bumped into that man.

Since then, Stella had become a ghost in her own home.

And now, he ran into the guy here again!

So, he was the owner, huh?

Yorick shivered, a cold dread washing over him.

Stella, why couldn’t she just leave him be? The mess with Finley and Tegan had been bad enough. And now, she’s tied to this place too? Was she doing this on purpose?

Yorick’s blood boiled the more he thought about it!

After a moment's thought, Orion suggested, “Maybe we should ask Ms. Quinn?”

It seemed Stella was living here now. And if Yorick wanted to buy this place for Ursula’s treatment, he’d have to go through Stella.

The thought soured Yorick’s mood even further.

“Ask her what? To humiliate Ursula?”

Orion fell silent.

From their perspective, both Yorick and Ursula had been played by Stella all this time.

Thinking about how they had exhausted themselves trying to buy this place, only to find Stella living here, Yorick felt a fire ignite in his chest.

His phone buzzed insistently with a call from his father, Thane.

Yorick didn’t want to answer, but when Thane called Orion instead, Orion couldn’t ignore it.

“Sir,” he answered respectfully.

Thane’s voice came through, stern and tinged with danger. “Give the phone to Yorick.”

Handing the phone over, Orion relayed, “It’s your father.”

Yorick took the call, “Dad.”

“You went to Wave Residence again?”

Thane’s voice was icy.
