Chapter 121
Yorick stormed off, clearly peeved.
Tabitha, the eager beaver, poked her head in cautiously, relieved to find Stella not in one of her moods, before stepping in fully.
Who knew when the boss was ticked off, it was like a scene straight out of a horror movie.
“Boss?”
“Is he gone?” Stella inquired.
Tabitha nodded, “Yeah, bolted. Looked like a drowned rat too, and man, did he reek!”
Stella didn’t respond.
Tabitha continued, “Soaked to the bone, limping all over. You really gave him a thrashing, boss”
Sella remarked, “I didn’t lay a hand on him.”
“Really? Because it looks like he got worked over pretty good. His arms and legs are all banged up,”
Stella fell silent.
If they were talking about Yorick getting roughed up, he’d had his fair share the past few days. First by Ronald, then her, followed by
Idris.
“Well, what can you do? Some dimwit just doesn’t get it no matter how hard you try.”
Tabitha said, “Huh?”
Mr. Quarry, a dimwit? That couldn’t be right. Running the whole Quarry Group, if he was a dimwit, then the previous chairman seriously dropped the ball.
At this moment, to Stella, Yorick was nothing short of a nincompoop.
Everything that needed to be said had been said, and when it was time to throw down, they did. And he still didn’t get it?
Utterly frustrating!
On Yorick’s end.
Orion was waiting in the car, and flinched upon seeing Yorick drenched with water.
And that smell, what on earth?
“Sir, you look…”
Yorick instructed, “If those guys around Stella can’t figure it out…”
“She’s moved to Wave Residence now.”
Before Yorick finished, Orion tossed out the latest scoop to stay in his boss’s good graces.
The air in the car froze.
Yorick’s gaze narrowed, “What did you say?”
Stella, moved to Wave Residence?
Orion nodded, “Ms. Quinn’s left Silk–River Residences. She’s at Wave Residence now.”
This news hit Yorick like a ton of bricks, scattering his thoughts to the wind. His entire reason went in disarray, his mind blank, making him unable to think things straight.
Stella was living at Wave Residence?
“Are you sure?”
After a long pause, Yorick finally spoke, his voice barely above a whisper, his mind buzzing.
Orion nodded firmly, “Positive.”
Stella
was actually living at Wave Residence? Why? What for?
Before, Yorick thought her presence there meant she was with one of the men.
Just going there for what?
Thinking this, Yorick felt an inexplicable tightness in his chest.
“Why would she live there?” Yorick barely choked out the question, voicing his inner turmoil.
