Chapter 327

The Lugar family and the Schultz family were locked in a bitter rivalry, a feud so deep it felt like it could tear the very sky apart.

Stella's feelings toward Xander were more than resentment; they were a storm of betrayal and anger. Once, Xander had been Ronald's brother, someone Ronald trusted implicitly. Stella, too, had seen him as family, even as his sister Regina Schultz pretended to be her close friend while secretly scheming.

Stella had been living in Portis City for several years, but the desire to see Xander pay for his betrayal never left her. Now, she finally had her chance.

Xander's patience was waning as Stella continued biting him. "Star, let go," he said, a hint of frustration in his voice.

When she refused to release him, Xander gripped her jaw, forcing Stella to relinquish her hold with a wince of pain. "Send me back," she demanded through clenched teeth.

Xander raised a brow. "I risked my neck to get you out of there, and you think that's an option, my dear fiancée?"

With that, Stella spat a mouthful of blood at his face.

Wiping his face with a sigh, Xander remarked, "You've grown up, and with it, grown feistier. What happened to the sweet girl who used to follow Ronald around, calling him brother with that syrupy voice?"

Back in Ferrowland, she had been so obedient, so docile.

Now, she was like a wildcat.
