Cross My Tigress Face the Wrath

Chapter 559

Xander and Ronald's conversation ended on a sour note.

Leaving the study, Xander headed straight to find Stella, who was still in the medical room.

When Yvonne announced she wanted to marry Xander, Lottie was immediately alarmed. Pulling her aside, she demanded, "What are you thinking? Is this something to be taken lightly?"

Even though Xander's feelings toward Stella were troubling, Lottie couldn't support Yvonne's reckless plan to resolve the situation. Yvonne was throwing herself into the mess.

For years, Ronald had treated Xander poorly. Xander was bound to hold a grudge against the Quinn family. If Yvonne went through with her plan, it would only lead to more animosity between her and Xander-a situation where they'd constantly be at each other's throats. What kind of mother could stand to see her daughter suffer like that?

Yvonne retorted, "I'm doing this to get back at Xander, that jerk."

Lottie's temper flared. "Have you lost your mind?"

This wasn't about revenge; it was practically self-sabotage.

Yvonne merely grunted in response.
