Chapter 338

After all, looking across the whole Ferrowland, no one had ever dared to exploit Ronald.

Back in the day, when Xander stirred up trouble over his dad's illegitimate child, he had orchestrated a masterful plan.

Using Ronald's influence, he'd brought the Schultz family to its knees. If the old man wouldn't leave the family legacy to him, that illegitimate child wouldn't get a piece of it either. Xander had played his hand ruthlessly, which had infuriated Ronald.

Now, facing Ronald again, Xander let out a mocking laugh.

"You really think you can take her away from my turf? Ronald, this is my territory!" Xander said coldly, enunciating each word.

With the formidable bodyguards standing behind him, Xander exuded an intimidating presence. If he gave the order, Ronald would have a hard time getting Stella out of there. Stella clung to Ronald, her small hands gripping his shirt tightly.

"Ronald," she called out anxiously.

Their recent separation had clearly left her shaken, and now, faced with Xander's threat, her fear grew. She dared not imagine the confrontation that might unfold.

Ronald looked down at the frightened little rabbit in his arms, his lips pressed thin. He glanced back at Xander.
