Cross My Tigress Face the Wrath

Chapter 167

Ronald glanced at his wristwatch before his gaze drifted over to the dining area. Seeing Stella diligently munching on her food brought a softness to his eyes. "Is Yorick still tied up with the thing about Wave Residence?" Wave Residence, that was Yorick's dream project, intended to provide a healing space for the Larkin family's adopted daughter.

A tough guy in his prime, Thane was. A wolf raising a pup, must be heart-wrenching for him.

Idris nodded, "Yes."

Ronald said, "Call Thane back and tell him..."

He trailed off as he noticed Stella spitting out the donut she had been eating into her napkin. It seemed she had bitten into something unpleasant, grimacing and gulping down water to rinse her mouth. Ronald's expression darkened slightly. His tone hardened, "Just say his son's situation is urgent."

Idris was speechless.

His son's situation was urgent?

If Thane heard this, he'd probably want to throttle Yorick.

What could possibly be so urgent with Yorick now? His fiery affair with Ursula was all the rage, especially with the pressing matter of Wave Residence.

Speaking of Yorick, Idris couldn't help but comment, "How did Thane end up with such a character for a son? Even a Casanova should choose wisely. It's like he wants to end the Quarry lineage." And Ursula's reputation didn't help.

Yorick's choice in women was...disappointing, to say the
