Chapter 122

Yorick remained silent, the air thickening in the cramped space of the car.

So, the owner of Wave Residence was now a venerable age of sixty-six? And Stella was with someone like that?

Yorick's breathing became more labored. Just as Orion was about to say something, his phone started buzzing. It was a call from Cloudia.

Orion glanced at Yorick, "Sir, it's Mrs. Larkin."

"Take it," Yorick muttered almost instinctively.

He could barely hear his own voice, nor did he catch what Orion had said afterward. All he could think about was Stella possibly being with a sixty-six-year-old man. Was she really degrading herself for a man?

Orion answered the call, "Mrs. Larkin."

"Orion, is Rick in a meeting? I've been trying to reach him, but he's not answering."

Orion looked back at Yorick, whose expression was growing darker by the second. Before he could reply to Cloudia, Yorick pushed the car door open and stepped out.

Orion felt his heart tightened abruptly. Instinctively, he told Cloudia on the phone, "Yes, Mr. Quarry is in a meeting."
