Chapter 332

Back then, Stella was filled with rage from Xander's threats involving her mother and sister. Without a second thought, she slapped him hard across the face. Tears streaming down her cheeks, she turned to leave, but Xander's cold voice lingered behind her. "Remember, no contact with Ronald, or else..." Or else what?

Xander never finished that sentence, but Stella knew the Quinn family's situation was precarious at that time. She couldn't risk making another enemy for Ronald. So, she complied, avoiding all contact with him.

Now, hearing Xander bring it up again, Stella looked up, her eyes brimming with both tears and anger.

Xander grabbed a fistful of her hair, pulling her closer. "Seems like you didn't take my words seriously, or maybe you forgot the most important part?" "Forgot what?"

"You're my fiancée, damn it. So tell me, what's this mark on your neck?"

His eyes were bloodshot, and his voice carried an ominous storm.

Stella let out a dry laugh. "What kind of fantasy are you living in?"

With that, Xander's grip tightened, making Stella wince in pain.

She tried to bite him, but he was just out of reach, so she clawed at his stomach, only to find rock-hard abs beneath her fingers.

Xander glanced down at her hand, his expression icy before he chuckled.
