Cross My Tigress Face the Wrath

Chapter 617

Yvonne had just gotten off the phone after a heated argument with Xander when Dan's name flashed on her screen. Her mood was already shot, and she sure as hell wasn't in the mood for pleasantries.

She let out a short, humorless laugh. "What's up, Dan? Calling to congratulate me or something?"

Yeah, right. From the tone in his voice, she could tell congratulations were the last thing on his mind.

Dan's voice was tight. "Is it true? You really married Xander?"

"Oh, so you know already, huh?"

She'd only been testing him, but the way he spat out the word "really" told her everything she needed to know.

Dan pressed on, his voice brittle. "You actually signed the papers with him?"

"What, you think we'd fake it? People like me and Xander don't play those games."

She shot back immediately, leaving him nowhere to go.

Dan's tone turned icy. "Yvonne."

She matched his coldness. "What, you got a problem with my attitude? Who I marry is none of your business."

Her words were as detached as a frozen lake in February. Once, she'd burned with passion for this man-now, there was nothing but frost.
