Cross My Tigress Face the Wrath (Stella) novel Chapter 605

No one really knew what kind of mess Xander had stumbled into this time, but for some reason, he was dead set on marrying her.

The thing was, he’d only told her brother and their mom about it—never bothered to clue her in at all.

Was she just not important enough to know?

Yvonne cleared her throat awkwardly. “Hey, what’s going on—?”

“Yvonne, listen to me,” Xander suddenly snapped through the phone. “You’re getting married to me. End of story. No arguments.”

He sounded pissed—really pissed.

Stella had run off with Ronald, now he was knee-deep in trouble, and all he wanted was for Yvonne to play along. But instead, he’d just gotten punched in the face for his trouble.

Where was the justice in that?

Dan, that absolute lunatic—if Xander didn’t make him pay big time for this, he’d stop calling himself Xander.

Yvonne started to protest, “Hey, what do you mean, ‘end of story’? What’s with the attitude?”

Wasn’t a wedding supposed to be a happy thing? Why was he so angry? She honestly didn’t get it.

Xander gritted out, “Didn’t Dan just get divorced? Fine. Let’s both have our second weddings together. Let’s see how much that jerk can take.”

Yvonne’s jaw dropped. Was he really just doing this because he couldn’t stand being outdone by Dan?

Listening to Xander now, he sounded so mad he was barely making sense.

Yvonne had been furious at Dan herself, but now she found herself trying to calm Xander down instead.

“Come on, don’t be like this. Didn’t you get a hit in, too?”

Was this really just about one-upping Dan?

Was her marriage really just a tool for someone else’s revenge? Wait, wasn’t that exactly how she’d tried to get back at Xander before?

Maybe this was karma.

“Xander, do you actually want this marriage, or are you just using me to get even with Dan?” she asked, exasperated.

This was a mess.

“Let’s just get it done. I’m coming to pick you up now,” Xander said, and hung up before she could reply.
