Cross My Tigress Face the Wrath (Stella) novel Chapter 215

Hearing the name Quinn, Yorick's face hardened, but he didn't dwell on it too much.

"Why is Stella here?" he asked Orion, his tone clearly annoyed.

Orion replied, "Must be a coincidence. Our trip was last-minute, and no one knew about it. Maybe she came with Mr. Patel?"

He wouldn’t dream of betraying Yorick’s whereabouts, that much was certain.

Somehow, after mentioning it could be a coincidence, Orion could feel the atmosphere around Yorick turn even colder, especially at the mention of Jeremy. He didn’t seem to buy it.

"Find out who she's here with," Yorick commanded, his voice icy.

Orion hesitated. "…"

This was a tough one.

"We need to hurry up and find the Lugar family heir. If we don't settle things today, Mr. Thane Quarry…" Orion trailed off, leaving the rest unspoken.

Thane’s wrath was the least of their worries. The Quarry Group would also suffer, not to mention the backlash from Ursula.

Yorick massaged his temple, feeling a headache coming on. "It won't take long. Just check."

Orion nodded. "Understood."

Seeing Yorick’s unwavering resolve, Orion had no choice but to obey.

...

Stella changed her clothes in the locker room. Following Ronald's advice, she dressed warmly for the walk from the dressing room to the hot springs.

As she stepped out, she accidentally bumped into a woman wrapped in a bath towel.

The woman lost her balance and fell straight into the footbath by the door, soaking her towel completely.

Furious, she yelled, "Can't you watch where you're going?"
