Cross My Tigress Face the Wrath

Chapter 766

"Look at Dan-he doesn't even try to hide how little he cares about you."

If something happened to Susanna now, it was obvious: Lacey would end up at war with the Quinn family, and Dan... well, he'd have managed to screw Yvonne over one more time.

Yvonne let out a dry chuckle. "Dan and I? Please. There's nothing between us worth mentioning."
