Chapter 123

The office was terribly frosty. Stella kept her silence, her gaze fixed on Ronald's back.

When the two men locked eyes, the air between them could've frozen over, with Yorick's stare at Ronald sharpening by the second.

"Do you even know what kind of woman she's? Can you handle her wild ways?"

The phrase "wild ways" hung in the air.

Under normal circumstances, Stella would've thrown a punch or two at Yorick for that, but now, she just stared at Ronald's back. Such topics weren't brought up in casual conversation. But now that it was out there, she needed an answer from Ronald too. "What wild ways are you talking about?" Ronald's voice was icy.

Yorick retorted, "She's not just with you, man. There's me, her fiancé. Does that bother you?"

"And you? Are you bothered?"

Yorick was silent.

Of course, he was bothered! He wanted to lash out at Stella, wanted to tear apart the men around her.

For some reason, these things, as Stella put it, none of his business, shouldn't bother him either. But now, he almost wished he could cut Ronald into pieces.

As Ronald saw Yorick silent, his gaze grew even colder, "Are you bothered?"
