Cross My Tigress Face the Wrath

Chapter 687

When Ronald and Xander came down the stairs, they immediately spotted Stella staring blankly at the front door.

She was holding a spoon mid-air, soup dripping down onto the table, not even noticing.

Clearly, she was completely out of it.

Ronald strode into the dining room. "What's got you so zoned out?"

Stella finally snapped out of it and turned to him. "Um, I think Yvonne's gone after Aira."

Seriously, Yvonne's fiery temper never failed to catch people off guard.

Stella continued, "It's about last night. Turns out, it wasn't Dan who did it."

Oh boy.

If it wasn't Dan, then who the hell was it? Did Aira just find some random person to pull this off?

That's bad news-knowing Yvonne, she's not going to let Aira off the hook. She'll tear her apart.

Ronald frowned. "Not Dan?"

He instinctively glanced at Xander, whose expression was, well, hard to describe -somewhere between confused and stunned.
