Cross My Tigress Face the Wrath (Stella) novel Chapter 246

"What?"

"You put pressure on the hospital, didn’t you?"

Yorick's question was blunt, his tone barely concealing his frustration.

Imogen retorted, "Are you out of your mind?"

"Mother!"

"How much longer does she have to live with all her ailments? Why would I bother meddling in her affairs?"

Imogen's anger flared, her words harsh and sharp.

After giving Yorick a piece of her mind, she abruptly ended the call.

Hearing the 'beep beep' sound from the phone, Yorick looked at Cloudia with furrowed brows, "It can't be her."

From what Imogen just said, it was clear.

Cloudia pondered, "Then who else could it be?"

Besides Imogen, who seemed to wish Ursula would drop dead at any moment? Who else could it be?

Right… Stella.

The thought of Stella turned Cloudia's face pale.

"It's Stella. It has to be her, no doubt."

If she could mess with the Larkin Group, she could certainly target Ursula.

Hearing Stella's name, Yorick's demeanor turned even colder.

Cloudia was frantic. "Rick, you have to save Ursula. What does Stella want, exactly?"

Wasn't causing a major headache for the Larkin Group enough? Did she really want Ursula dead?

Yorick replied, "I'll handle this."

Cloudia was beside herself with worry. It was only now that she realized what Stella meant to her. She had always thought of Stella as a country bumpkin, lacking real skills or sophistication.

But now, this supposedly insignificant person was causing her this much distress.

Yorick instructed, "You head back first."

"They want Ursula discharged first thing in the morning, Rick. She's practically sending Ursula to her grave," Cloudia said, choking up.

Yorick nodded. "I know."

At that moment, Yorick, too, was struggling to contain his anger, taking a while to persuade Cloudia to leave.
