Cross My Tigress Face the Wrath

Chapter 447

Chapter 447 Speaking of which, Tegan and Stella's situations bore a striking resemblance to one another.

Tegan's life took a tragic turn when she was only five years old. Her father died because of the actions of Uriah's father, and she was taken in by the Horner family.

However, her life there was anything but kind. Uriah's mother had never warmed up to her, and as a result, most of the Horner elders looked down on her as well. The only people who showed her any kindness were Uriah and his father, Hayden Horner.

As fate would have it, after Hayden passed away, Uriah was the only one who continued to stand by her side.

Stella, for one, was convinced there was more to his feelings than mere family affection.
