Cross My Tigress Face the Wrath

Chapter 35

Outside the hospital room.

Yorick's expression was grim as he glanced at Orion, "Did you find anything?"

Orion shook his head, "Nothing."

"Nothing?"

Hearing Orion hadn't found anything, Yorick's expression darkened. If there was nothing, why come to him at all?

Orion said, "I barely started digging when I hit a wall. There's a power stopping me from going further. Seems like the guy is no ordinary person."

A barrier the moment he started digging? If so, that man's identity was indeed no small matter.

This notion had been crystal clear to him since last night at Silk-River Residences when that man had pointed a gun at him. But this secrecy around the man's identity was making things unnecessarily mysterious. "How about you just ask Ms. Quinn directly?" Orion suggested.

It seemed impossible to dig any further. With such a force blocking the search, the man's visit to Portis City was obviously meant to stay under wraps.

Mentioning Stella only made Yorick's headache pound. He didn't even want to think about Stella right now.

Yet the thought of her with another man gnawed at him, and surprisingly, he felt somewhat painful.

Finding out who the man with Stella was seemed impossible now.

Yorick, with a sour expression, returned to the hospital room.

Ursula looked at him, "What's wrong? Trouble at the company?"

She didn't suspect it had anything to do with Stella.
