Cross My Tigress Face the Wrath (Stella) novel Chapter 601

Stella caught the flicker of emotion in her eyes and gave a gentle nudge, “Hey, sis, I know you’ve learned your lesson.”

“Hm?”

“Relax. She’s not gonna change herself for that guy anymore.”

Thinking about how much Yvonne used to bend over backwards for Dan made Stella’s chest ache a little. Dan had been a big deal in Yvonne’s world. Who would’ve thought he’d turn out to be… well, that kind of man?

Lydia sighed, “Let’s hope so.”

She really did feel for Yvonne. Yvonne always acted so carefree, so loud and brash—nobody would’ve guessed she could fall so hard for someone.

“Wait, is Dan even alive?” Lydia asked suddenly.

It had been five years. The guy was supposed to be dead. Who would imagine he was still kicking around?

Stella nodded, “Yeah. He’s alive.”

Lydia frowned, “Who the heck made the call that he was dead back then?” That was a big deal. If you can’t even tell if someone’s alive or dead, what’s the point of being a doctor?

“Finley,” Stella replied.

Lydia’s jaw dropped. “Oh, that explains everything.”

When it came to Finley Yoder, Lydia was at a loss for words. “I honestly don’t know how he ever got his ‘genius doctor’ reputation.”

Everyone in town raved about Finley’s skills, but anyone who actually knew him… well, they knew better.

As they were talking, Ronald and Yvonne walked in from the porch. “Grandma,” Yvonne called out first.

There was still a bruise on her face. When she leaned in closer, Lydia jumped. “Oh my goodness, what happened to your face? Who did this to you?”

It was obvious she’d been hit.

Stella’s eyes went wide too. Yvonne gingerly touched her cheek, wincing. “Ugh, the jerk’s goons didn’t hold back. Hurts like hell.”

Even her lip had started to swell.
