Cross My Tigress Face the Wrath (Stella) novel Chapter 480

Clutching her phone, Tegan watched as two cars skidded off the icy road and disappeared into the snowy ditch.

"Yeah, seems like it," she muttered to herself.

Given the current situation, it would take more than a few tow trucks to get those cars out of there. She shook her head in disbelief at how slow her brain was processing the obvious. "I'm calling for a tow truck right now," Tegan said decisively.

Hearing that, Stella glanced out the window, noting the snow was heavier. "Why don't you come to Mist Bay in the meantime?" she suggested.

It was clear that Tegan's car wouldn't go anywhere for a while, even if they could pull it out of the ditch. And even then, there was no guarantee it would start up immediately.

"But how am I supposed to get there? The car you guys came in is down in the ditch, too," Tegan pointed out, frustration creeping into her voice. The scene was nothing short of a disaster.

"I'll come get you," Stella offered.

"Are you sure about that? If your driving skills aren't top-notch, maybe you should stay put. The roads are like a skating rink today," Tegan warned, a hint of worry coloring her words.

Stella chuckled. "You underestimate me, don't you?"

Her driving skills were nothing to scoff at, honed to perfection during those intense training sessions with Yvonne. It wasn't just physical training but about mastering the art of a swift escape.

Taking another look at the wintry landscape outside, Stella knew she had to make the trip herself.

Tegan said, "I'm not underestimating you. I'm just worried. The roads are icy today."

"Just wait for me," Stella replied confidently before hanging up.

She turned to her butler. "Get a car ready."

"Are you planning to drive yourself, Miss? That's out of the question," the butler said without missing a beat.

Stella raised an eyebrow. "Excuse me?"

"Mr. Quinn would disapprove. I'll arrange for a car to fetch Dr. James instead," the butler insisted.

"Are you sure there's a driver who can handle these roads right now?" Stella challenged.

"You're underestimating Mr. Quinn, miss. His team is full of skilled drivers. That was just an unfortunate accident earlier," the butler reassured her.
