Chapter 70

Ronald exuded a chill that seemed to seep into one's bones, his eyes cold as an icy pond, casting a light that made you shiver.

Yorick had completely lost it, oblivious to the danger he was in.

"So, you're canceling our wedding over this guy, and now you're parading around town with him? You don't feel ashamed, but aren't you worried about embarrassing both the Quarrys and the Larkins?" Stella shot back, "What do the Quarry family and Larkin family' reputations have to do with me?"

Yorick couldn't speak a word. His breathing, already ragged, turned fiery with indignation at Stella's words.

This was too much, way over the line.

Then, the elevator dinged.

Ronald, gripping her hand, was about to lead Stella out when Yorick grabbed his arm, "Don't you dare leave. We're settling this today."

Yorick was livid. Being dumped by Stella was a blow to his ego, and he needed to know when she and Ronald had started their affair. The scene froze entirely.

Stella looked at Yorick's hand on Ronald's arm, and then, without even a second to react, she heard a sound of bone fractured. Yorick let out a howl.

Just seeing Yorick's pained expression made Stella wince.
