Cross My Tigress Face the Wrath (Stella) novel Chapter 129

In the hospital room, their presence had left Ursula absolutely gobsmacked as they stood by the doorway.

They exchanged bewildered looks, none intending to break the silence first.

It was Stella's voice that shattered the stillness, "Is this Old Mrs. Zeller really that important to him? This is my second time here."

"She's quite important, yes," came Idris' reply.

Stella had been dreading this visit. Especially since getting to the old lady’s room meant passing by Ursula's.

Seeing Yorick, Jaxon, and Cloudia standing there like statues struck by lightning was a sight to behold.

Stella exchanged a glance with Idris, who also looked at the trio. Ultimately, Stella chose to say nothing and hurried past. This place irritated her, and she wanted to spend as little time here as possible.

Once they walked past them, Stella whispered to Idris, "What's up with them? Look like they've been struck by lightning."

Idris replied, "No lightning indoors, I reckon they got the shock of their lives."

"Shocked by Ursula?"

Ursula was the only one in that room, and the thought that she could have shocked those three seemed absurd.

Idris assumed, "Must've overheard something they shouldn't have."

Stella fell silent, pondering.

She recalled her own encounters with Ursula, trying to push her out of Portis City as quickly as possible.

Looking back at Idris, her gaze had deepened.

"Miss?" Idris inquired.

Stella instructed, "Check if something's happened with Ursula.”

...

Meanwhile, Ronald was with Hull.

Hull noticed the indulgent smile on Ronald's face as he looked at his phone and curiously asked, "What are you looking at?"

But Ronald quickly pocketed his phone, leaving Hull speechless.

Finley chimed in, "Must be our dear sister."

Who else could make Ronald smile with such fondness?

With a look from Ronald, Finley added, "Alright, I'll drop it. I've got a sister too, you know."

It was clear to everyone that Ronald's affection for Stella was not to be trifled with. After all, they had all watched Stella grow up, and she always referred to Finley as her brother.
