Chapter 4

After a chaotic frenzy that could rival a barnyard uproar, it was Orion who finally managed to pry Stella away. Ursula's face was twisted in pain, tears welling up in her eyes as she glanced at Yorick, "Rick, I..."-

Yorick's face was a shade of thunderous gray!

He barked at Orion, who was holding Stella back, "Just take her away, now."

Stella tried to break free from Orion's grip, but he wasn't about to let her go.

This woman, her strength was unbelievable.

"Ms. Quinn, let's head out," Orion urged.

Stella exclaimed, "Purse, my purse."

She had used her purse to hit Yorick earlier, and now it lay by his feet.

In a fit of rage, Yorick grabbed it and threw it at her.

Orion caught it and quickly stuffed it into Stella's arms, "There, you've got your purse back."

What a mess.

Eventually, Stella was dragged into the car by Orion.

Orion wanted to drive Stella home, but she wouldn't have it, especially not Yorick's man driving her. So, she took the wheel and left.

Yorick, still reeling from the impact, took a while to come back to his senses.
