Chapter 195
Hearing the term “lovers“, Yorick’s face hardened once more.
You think someone of that stature would fancy her?”
Orion remained silent
Well, maybe not! But looking at how well Stella’s studio was doing, she wasn’t exactly slacking off.
In Orion’s eyes, Stella was quite impressive. At her young age, she had already achieved so much. And that studio? The Larkin family didn’t even know about it, let alone finance it. Orion knew exactly how much the Larkin family had been paying Stella every month for the past couple of years.
Yorick’s tone was icy. “But you need to figure out that guy’s identity quickly.”
Everyone knew the owner of Mist Bay was someone of no simple standing, yet no one knew who they were.
And now, Stella had somehow gotten involved with him. She really had some tricks up her sleeve.
They soon arrived at the Quarry family estate.
Yorick went in alone, and as soon as he entered, a flying object came hurling at him.
Boom!‘
With a loud thud, it hit him right where he had been injured earlier that day.
The re–injury made the swelling and pain unbearable.
Thane was furious.
Imogen, always protective of her son, was also livid, glaring fiercely at him.
Yorick took a deep breath. “I told you, I’ll meet the heir
of
Imee Thane pract
the Lugar family before they sign the contract tomorrow.”
His tone was grim, clearly dissatisfied with Thane’s aggression – twice in one day.
Thane retorted, “You’re meeting him? After you’ve practically offended him, you’re still going?”
“When have I ever offended him?”
Yorick was indignant. He hadn’t even met the man yet; how could he have possibly offended him? Thane countered, “You’re saying you haven’t offended him? Then why did he ask me to educate you?”
Yorick’s face fell even further.
“Educate me?”
What was this heir of the Lugar family playing at, meddling in other families‘ affairs?
He was utterly confused. A flicker of bewilderment passed through Yorick’s eyes, and it was this very bewilderment that fueled Thane’s
anger.
“I got in touch with his assistant. The assistant said it was his boss’s orders to tell us to educate you.”
Yorick protested, “But I’ve never even met him!”
In a fit of rage, Thane grabbed the nearest ashtray and hurled it at Yorick.
Yorick dodged, and the ashtray smashed into the door behind him with a loud ‘thud‘, leaving a dent.
Had it hit him, it would have surely been another bloody scene.
The tension between Yorick and Thane was palpable.
Facing Thane’s fury, Yorick felt wronged. “I honestly haven’t met him.”
This was turning into a real headache. He hadn’t met the man. Finding him had been challenging enough.
Thinking of challenges made Yorick feel that everything recently had been particularly taxing. In a nutshell, he was frustrated!
Thane, breathing heavily with anger, insisted, “You’re still denying it.”
“I truly haven’t met him!” Yorick was also frustrated.
Imogen, who had been silent until now, couldn’t stand the escalating tension and finally interjected, “Alright, you really haven’t met him?” Yorick nodded. “No.”
Thane pressed on, “No? Then how on earth did you manage to offend him?”
