Cross My Tigress Face the Wrath

Chapter 485

Seeing Ronald about to send Stella away, Jeremy felt a flutter of unease in his chest and instinctively wanted to intervene. He knew all too well that Ronald was like Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde depending on whether Stella

was around.

But he didn’t dare speak up, especially not with Ronald’s dark expression. Jeremy knew better than to open his mouth. He silently prayed Stella wouldn’t leave.

Unfortunately, Stella was too obedient. This woman, who had once left Yorick bruised and battered, became a picture of compliance in Ronald’s presence.

“I’ll be off then,” she said softly.

“Okay, be good,” Ronald replied, squeezing her cheek gently.

Stella turned and ran off.

Jeremy was stunned. Seeing her so demure around Ronald, he thought Yorick had been blind to let her go. Instead, he’d chosen Ursula, who was nothing but trouble.

Once Stella left Ronald and Jeremy alone, Ronald sauntered over to the couch and sat down.

Jeremy felt a bead of nervous sweat. “Mr. Quinn,” he stammered.

Ronald glanced at him coldly. “Haven’t we signed the contract? What do you need her for?”

Jeremy’s heart skipped a beat.

See? Raised by Mr. Quinn himself, they had the same mindset. It was far from ideal to leave Ronald with the impression that he was always trying to use the backdoor.
