Cross My Tigress Face the Wrath

Chapter 817

Chapter 817

Dan took a deep breath, his eyes still sharp and dangerous, his tone even more threatening than before.

"No need for you to leave," he said coldly. "I've got some questions for you myself."

There was no mistaking the hostility in his voice, mixed with a heavy dose of disgust.

Derek's temper flared, but before he could explode, Adelle caught his eye and gave him a calming look.

In an instant, the raging lion inside Derek was forced back into his cage.

Adelle spoke first, her voice gentle. "Go ahead, ask."
