Cross My Tigress Face the Wrath (Stella) novel Chapter 419

Lola stormed out of the room, her voice echoing down the hallway. "I can't take another damn minute of this hellhole. If anyone wants to stick around this madhouse, be my guest."

She had had enough of this suffocating place and the chaos. Without another word, she spun on her heels and stormed out.

Jaxon panicked, his voice rising in frustration. "Hey, hold it right there! Give me back my money!"

"In your dreams!" Lola shot back, her voice dripping with defiance.

Jaxon was left speechless, watching her go.

Lola then headed to Ursula's room. As she entered, she saw the flicker of fear in Ursula's eyes. She was frail now, bruised from their last encounter, and Lola knew she had the upper hand.

With a smirk, Lola dismissed Ursula's act. "Cut the crap, no one's here to see your little performance."

Ursula stammered, "Wha-what do you want now?"

Lola waved her hand dismissively. "Relax. I'm here to let you know you won. I'm leaving."

A glimmer of satisfaction flashed in Ursula's eyes, but Lola caught it.

"This shattered excuse of a family? You can have it. I couldn't care less."

With that, she turned to leave.

But Ursula called after her, "Wait. What about my brother's money?"

Lola turned back, a cynical smile playing on her lips. "Your brother? Don't kid yourself. He’s Stella's real brother. She didn't want him, and you can have whatever leftovers you want."

"You—" Ursula began, fury rising in her voice.

Jaxon put two and two together, his face falling. "So, what are you planning to do about it?"

Stella was his sister, after all. And while Ursula had been by his side for years, plotting against his own sister was something Jaxon couldn't stomach.

Cloudia, shaken by the question, could only tremble in silence.

Jaxon pressed on, frowning. "What are you planning?"

Cloudia's voice was barely a whisper. "What can we do? We'll wait until Ursula gets better, then decide."

Jaxon was incredulous. "Get better? With her current condition, how is that even possible?"

And even if it were, they couldn't afford the medical bills to make it happen.
