Cross My Tigress Face the Wrath (Stella)

"Idris, you..."

Finley was visibly flustered.

But he had to admit that Idris had a point. Considering how hard Yvonne had been looking for Stella these past two years, it wouldn't be a stretch to say she had gone a bit mad in her search.

Finley took a deep breath, trying to calm himself. He turned to Ronald. "Ronald, hear me out. I think there's definitely some misunderstanding here. I'll go and find her right away." Finley was practically pacing in circles.

That troublemaking tomboy, always causing chaos wherever she went.

As much as he was angry, she was still his sister. What was he supposed to do? Let her cause a disaster in front of Ronald and face the consequences?

He couldn't even begin to imagine the fallout if Stella was truly taken.

As Finley turned, he heard Ronald's cold voice behind him. "Throw her out."

Idris replied, "Understood."

Finley shivered.

"No, let me handle this. You don't need to worry about it."

Ronald remained silent.

"Besides, you know Star doesn't like that violent side of yours. Remember that time she nearly shut down after seeing you in action?"

Finley was unaware that Stella had stumbled upon a similar scene the previous night. At the time, she neither fled nor shut down.

Ronald leaned back in his chair, locking eyes with Finley, sending another shiver down his spine.

Ronald said, "Skye needs to be taught a lesson."

Finley blinked, caught off guard.

A lesson? Ronald's way of teaching someone a lesson was something most people couldn't endure.

Ronald turned to Idris. "Make sure she remembers."

"Yes, sir," Idris nodded.

Finley winced. Make Skye remember? Ronald's idea of that usually involved something severe enough to leave a lasting impression.

Oh dear Lord, how did Skye get mixed up with Yvonne this time?

Idris turned to leave, but Finley

grabbed his arm. "Hey, Idris, how et

are you planning to make her

ber?"

"By giving her a nice shiner. How about that?"

Finley blinked. "That's it?"

Idris smirked. "On your account, I'll take it easy."

Finley was left speechless. Something about that didn't sit right.

Wait a second...

The last time Idris said something like that, it had ended with a far worse outcome than a mere shiner. "Hey, don't be too harsh. She's my only sister. Let me handle her. I promise I'll straighten her out this time." Idris pulled his arm free. "You can't even reach her right now. How do you plan on getting her to behave?"

Finley stood there, speechless.noveldrama

That darn girl!

Idris was already on his way out.

Finley pulled out his phone

dialing Skye. Just as Idris

had said, there was no response, and the other number was the same.

им

Finley was pacing furiously. "That little devil.

with something this big?"

What on earth happened between Yvonne and Skye while they were out of town?

Stella was back in her room shortly after.

Ronald arrived not long after. When she heard him enter, Stella turned around, her cheeks still flushed.

Apparently, she hadn't fully recovered from whatever Finley had stirred up earlier.

Ronald leaned against the doorframe, arms crossed. "You that scared?"

Stella looked at him with wide eyes, silent.

With a sigh, Ronald approached and pulled her into his arms. "You little thing."

He sat down, pulling her onto his lap.

Their eyes met, and he leaned in, brushing his lips against hers. "No need to hide anymore, okay?"
