Cross My Tigress Face the Wrath

Chapter 341

Yorick stood in the biting wind, his thoughts tangled with frustration. He wanted to go inside to see what was happening, but the security guards stood firm, not budging an inch. Just then, Finley emerged from inside. He spotted Yorick and saw Orion with him, trying to negotiate with the guards.

Finley had half a mind to ignore it all, but recalling how furious Ronald had been, he figured there might be serious consequences once they got back to Portis City.

He finally pulled his car over and rolled down the window halfway.

Their eyes met directly, and Finley asked, "Here to see Star?"

Hearing Finley's nickname for Stella sent another wave of unease through Yorick's chest.

The way Ronald's people referred to Stella made it clear how important she was to the Lugar family.

Yorick pushed down the discomfort gnawing at him. "How is she?"

Finley could tell that Yorick had already heard some things. He replied seriously, "She's the little princess of the Quinn family. Her safety isn't your concern."

Yorick felt the sting of silence.

The Quinn family, the little princess?

Once, everyone thought she was raised by a poor rural family, unloved, uncared for, and without... manners.

And now? It was almost laughable. She was one of the famous Quinn sisters from Ferrowland. The eldest Quinn sister never missed a chance to brag about her sweet little sister. Finley continued, "Mr. Quarry, let me remind you: you're not a match for Star. Her family will never approve."
