Cross My Tigress Face the Wrath

Chapter 758

Hogan. Hogan.

That half-brother of his.

Lately, with the whole power struggle inside the Quarry family, Imogen and Hogan Freeman had been at each other's throats-sometimes out in the open, sometimes behind closed doors.

Ever since Hogan came back to the Quarry estate, there hadn't been a moment's peace.

But now, with what Yorick was saying, Stella couldn't help but wonder... Had they actually buried the hatchet and joined forces? Were they suddenly united against everyone else?

Or was it something else entirely...?

"Wait-so you're saying, once the Quarry mess is sorted, you'd still be in charge of the whole Quarry Group?"

That had to be it, right?

Ronald hadn't shown the Quarry family an ounce of mercy lately. He was relentless, never letting up, and the Quarrys could barely catch their breath.

Even if Hogan tried to take over, it wouldn't do a thing. Ronald's fury was way beyond that.

Stella herself didn't feel much about it.

But from Ronald's perspective, after what happened during those three years she was stuck in Portis City, both the Quarrys and the Larkins had treated her like dirt.

Yorick said, "If you stop now, I'll step in and explain things. But if these rumors get to Ferrowland, are you sure they won't affect the Quinn family?"

Stella didn't answer.

Yorick pressed on, "Even if it's a tiny chance, people will look at Ronald differently from then on."
