Cross My Tigress Face the Wrath

Chapter 574

The person Jaxon was looking for was Frost Quarry.

Frost was just about to leave, suitcase in hand, ready to escape the family drama that seemed never-ending and impossible to resolve. She had a million things going on outside and had no desire to be shackled by the mess at home.

Frost had always found Jaxon particularly irritating. How could someone prioritize their foster sister over their own flesh and blood? It wasn't just Jaxon; in Frost's eyes, the entire Larkin family seemed insane.

Jaxon felt a twinge of embarrassment under Frost's cutting words. "I'm here to speak with Yorick."

Frost sneered, "Talking to anyone won't help. The Quarry family isn't going to take Ursula in."
