Cross My Tigress Face the Wrath (Stella) novel Chapter 142

Plus he and Orion had bumped into Stella at the Wave Residence earlier. So now, Yorick was convinced - Stella was definitely living there!

Stella replied, "Yeah, I live there. What's the big deal?"

Hearing Stella admit it in person made Yorick’s heart tighten again. The place Ursula dreamt of visiting was now Stella's home.

"Who owns the place?"

At this moment, Yorick was a whirlwind of emotions, barely able to hear his own voice.

Stella uttered, "Why are you asking me? Thought you were Mr. Big Shot who found out it's owned by some sixty-six-year-old geezer?"

Not this line again!

Every time Wave Residence came up, she'd throw that line at him.

Yorick growled, "Tell me, who is it!"

He asked again, grinding his teeth in frustration.

Stella, seeing him all worked up, sarcastically laughed, "So, Mr. Quarry, you're admitting to my face you're not so capable after all?"

Yorick was livid. She had this knack - her words could spark a fire in anyone's chest.

Stella kept on, "Admit it, and I'll tell you. Will you?"

Yorick couldn’t answer it. Asking him to admit his incapability in front of her, this infuriating woman, was boldly humiliating him.

Yorick took a couple of deep breaths, but it did little to calm the storm inside him. His gaze towards Stella turned colder.

"You're something else."

Stella turned around, arms crossed, "Indeed, I am. Ready for your next move, or shall we see what you've got?"

Before Yorick could retort with a “just you wait”, Stella beat him to it.

Such brazen defiance was unheard of in Portis City, especially towards Yorick.

But Stella, she just did!

...

In the end, Yorick stormed off.
