Cross My Tigress Face the Wrath (Stella) novel Chapter 102

"Whether she wants to have a proper chat with me or not, I've gotta try, okay?"

Yorick was speechless. Seeing Ursula like this, he couldn't bring himself to say no.

"Alright, fine."

He knew Ursula wouldn't let it go unless she got her way. But Stella was as stubborn as they come. Why bother with someone like her?

...

Stella hadn't planned on going to the studio that afternoon. But a call from Tabitha changed her plans, and there she was.

After an emergency meeting that stretched until almost 6 PM, she remembered Ronald had promised to have dinner with her.

She hurried things along, reminding Tabitha, "Keep an eye on things here, Tabitha. If you guys end up working late, order some meals from Crab Elite for everyone."

"Where, exactly?" Tabitha couldn't believe her ears when she heard they were to order food from Crab Elite.

Stella confirmed, "Crab Elite."

"That's quite expensive for so many people, boss. You don't have to go all out like that, I..."

"Just put it on my tab."

Tabitha's lips twitched, "Thanks, boss!"

She loved their crab cakes, even though they were pricey. But with the boss's command, she was looking forward to indulging in two servings tonight.

As soon as Stella stepped into the elevator, Tabitha shouted to the office, "Guys, gear up for tonight! The boss is treating us to Crab Elite."

At the mention of Crab Elite, everyone's eyes lit up. After all, that place was a luxury few could afford on a regular day.

Soon the office buzzed with excitement as everyone doubled down on their work, motivated by the previous pricey employee benefit and today’s promise of a lavish meal.

...

Coming down from the office, Stella bumped into Yorick, who was there to see her.

She was stunned at the sight of him but quickly tried to walk past.

Yorick, frustrated by her cold shoulder, grabbed her wrist abruptly, "Wait!"

Touching her wrist again?
