The Killer Queen by Noella Briony

Chapter 286

Tristan mulled it over and decided it made perfect sense.

Noella, however, couldn’t quite get on board with Tristan’s way of thinking.

Was she seriously measuring trouble by the “brother” unit?

Lorne’s antics were becoming too much, enough to make Noella sick of him.

Tristan stepped aside to a quieter spot, asking with concern, “Sweetie, why do you want to hit Lorne? What did he do?”

Tristan had his own reasons.

Why not? Jacob had made his other daughter suffer!
