Cross My Tigress Face the Wrath (Stella) novel Chapter 304

Thinking about how hard Tabitha has worked these past two years, along with the other designers, really struck a chord with Stella.

Honestly, even without StarRiver Corp., their little studio gigs could sustain them well enough.

"Why don't you come down to Mist Bay tomorrow?" Stella suggested after a moment's thought.

Tabitha raised an eyebrow. "Mist Bay? You mean that Mist Bay?"

Stella nodded. "Yeah. Bring along some of the company’s business documents too."

Getting out of the house tomorrow seemed unlikely for Stella, especially with Skye having just ditched Yvonne's crew. God knows what kind of trouble could follow. Best to just lay low at Mist Bay.

After hanging up on Tabitha, Stella returned to the dining room just as Ronald was saying to Idris, "Find her tonight."

"Okay," Idris replied.

Since Skye was in Portis City, tracking her down wouldn't be too difficult.

Seeing Idris making a move, Finley hurried to tag along. "I'm coming with you."

That morning, Idris had gone off on his own, leaving Finley on edge ever since. He worried Idris might actually find Skye and give her a black eye. Their mom still clung to the hope that her daughter could somehow reclaim her flawless complexion; he couldn't afford to ruin her face.

As Finley and Idris headed out, Ronald’s stern expression softened. He turned to Stella. "Come here."

Stella shuffled over, and as soon as she was close enough, Ronald pulled her onto his lap.

Stella instinctively squirmed. "What are you doing? There are people around."

Finley and Idris might have left, but there were still plenty of staff around Mist Bay.

Ronald chuckled softly. "I told you, no need to hide, remember?"

Stella blushed slightly.

Ronald pinched her cheek gently, "Still sore?"

Stella’s face, already turning pink, seemed to catch fire at Ronald’s words.

"How long has it been? You can’t be serious..."

Ronald wrapped his arms around her waist and rested his head on her shoulder, "Yes, very much."
