Cross My Tigress Face the Wrath

Chapter 661

Eventually, the Schultz family's gathering didn't wind down until almost three in the morning. The house was still buzzing with tension when Yvonne finally left.

Everyone in the Schultz family looked absolutely wrecked, like they'd just eaten something rotten. You'd think they'd been dealing with a battalion, not just one

woman.

Tristan, looking every bit his age, heaved himself up and trudged upstairs. "That boy... total disgrace. Absolute disgrace." And then he was gone.

Mona and Yale shared a look.

Yale, jaw clenched, muttered, "Wasn't Xander head over heels for that Quinn girl? How the hell did he end up married to that hellcat?"

Hellcat. That's exactly how they saw Yvonne.

She had a temper, and a pedigree so untouchable that nobody dared cross her.

Mona's eyes narrowed, landing on the bottle of nail polish Yvonne had slammed down on the dining table. "I knew he wouldn't just stay put in Boston forever. I just knew he was up to something coming home this time."

She practically spat out the words, grinding her teeth so hard you'd think she wanted to chew Xander up and spit him out.

Yale added, "Marrying Yvonne, that witch, it's obvious he wants the whole Schultz fortune for himself."

This wasn't about sharing.
