Chapter 191

Yorick was on the edge of losing his mind.

The moment he saw that man's car pull into the driveway, everything from the past month crashed over him like a wave.

"When did this house finally find an owner?"

"Not too long ago, maybe just this past month," Orion mused aloud.

Everyone knew that the place had been vacant for ages.

Yorick snorted. "Just this past month, huh!"

That month had been a roller coaster. Ever since he and Stella decided to postpone their wedding, it felt like one thing after another.

But he couldn't shake that day at Stella's place when he bumped into that man.

Since then, Stella had become a ghost in her own home.

Yorick shivered, a cold dread washing over him.
