Cross My Tigress Face the Wrath (Stella) novel Chapter 265

Quickly, Finley had someone fetch the medication and handed it over to Ronald with a word of caution.

“Maybe lay off her for a while, huh?”

The moment he said it, the room went as quiet as a church on Monday.

Ronald shot Finley a glacial look.

Finley persisted, “Seriously, though. And she can’t even enjoy the hot springs now with how she’s feeling. Spring Hill is pretty chilly these days. Better take her back to Wave Residence.”

They had initially come to enjoy the healing waters of the hot springs because of Stella’s injured leg. Now, injured, their plans had to change. It was too cold up in the mountains with the snow and all.

Ronald squinted. “Didn’t he stay last night?”

“He left, but now he’s back, been hounding Idris about seeing you.”

Ronald’s icy glare was his only response.

“You enjoy gossip much?”

Finley defended, “No, just thought you should know, is all.”

Watching him go, Finley clicked his tongue again.

No wonder he was unhappy, having just started engaging in his sexual endeavors when he was suddenly given restrictions; it would be absurd if he was in a good mood.
