Cross My Tigress Face the Wrath (Stella) novel Chapter 511

The two were deep in conversation when Idris entered. Stella immediately scooted closer to Ronald, sitting obediently by his side.

Ronald gave Idris a sideways glance, his expression less than welcoming. "What is it?"

"Mr. Larkin is here," Idris replied, nodding toward the waiting room. "He's causing a scene, insisting he sees Miss Stella."

When hearing Jaxon's name, Ronald's eyes turned icy. "Causing a scene?"

Idris nodded again. "He's making a fuss. He must have heard Miss Stella might not return to Portis City after heading back to Ferrowland. He's too desperate to care about his dignity anymore."

Jaxon was indeed frantic. With the Larkin family in shambles, he believed everything could be set right if only Stella would help. Knowing she was leaving Portis City made him anxious.

Ronald closed his eyes briefly, then spat out, "Throw him out."

If Jaxon wanted to throw away his dignity, Ronald was more than happy to help.

"Wait," Stella interjected.

Ronald opened his eyes to look at her. "Why?"

She smiled slightly, "If he wants to suffer, shouldn't we let him?"

Ronald raised an eyebrow. "Tossing him out would do just that."

With so many people at the airport, Jaxon would be humiliated enough. Ronald had already had Idris look into the Larkin family when they landed in Portis City. They were new money, and reputation meant everything to them.

Stella shook her head. "Reputation means nothing to them now."

She stood up from beside Ronald and glanced at Idris. "Where is he?"

"By the door," Idris replied.

Stella nodded, then turned back to Ronald. "I'll be right back."

Without waiting for a response, she walked out.

Ronald watched her retreating figure, a smile playing on his lips.

His grievances were momentarily forgotten as he realized this might be his last chance to see her. He tried to grab her hand. "Star, my dear sister..."

But Stella stepped back, her glare undisguised in its distaste. The word 'sister' made her skin crawl.

When Stella was with the Larkins, Jaxon had called Ursula 'sister' at every turn. It was only a word, but their attitudes truly disgusted her.

And he called her his dear sister? The word made her shiver with revulsion.

Jaxon hesitated as Stella dodged his hand, leaving him awkwardly frozen with nowhere to place it. He retracted it, feeling a bit lost and embarrassed.

He opened his mouth to speak, but Stella beat him to it, "So, are you here for Ursula or Cloudia?"

Jaxon hesitated.

Cloudia?

Was that what she called their mother? He took a deep breath, ready to lash out.
