Cross My Tigress Face the Wrath (Stella) novel Chapter 87

Yeah, for three whole months!

During those three months, Ronald was like a man possessed, searching high and low for Stella, terrified she'd be suffering somehow. Turned out, she was being put through her paces by Yvonne, hidden away and training hard. After that, there weren't any real dangers, but her physical strength had definitely improved.

Helping Ronald lean against her, she fed him the hangover cure.

"Star," his voice was a soft murmur, tender even through his drunken haze.

Stella answered, "Yeah, I'm here."

"You better not run off, or I'll break your legs."

Stella was like, "..."

Even drunk, he didn't forget to make threats.

It took some doing, but Stella managed to get the hangover cure into Ronald. Trying to get him back to his room was another story – she just didn't have the strength.

By now it was 2 AM, and most of the mansion's staff were off to bed.

No choice, she let him crash on the couch of her room and found him a thick blanket. Only then did she turn in for the night herself.

After such a hectic day, Stella was exhausted. She fell asleep quickly.

...

Morning sunlight peeked through the curtains, landing on Ronald's face. He looked at the blanket covering him, slightly dazed.

It took a moment, but then he realized he was in Stella's room. Memories from the night before flooded back.

A tightness gripped his chest as he glanced over at Stella, still deep in sleep on the bed. She must have been really tired, he thought, as she hadn't woken up yet.

The phone started buzzing.

It was Ronald’s phone, he took a glance and found it was Idris calling.

He picked up, "Yeah."

"Boss, Yorick Quarry has been trying to schedule a meeting with you."

"Ignore him."

To see him? Ha!

Ronald's gaze softened as he looked at the small form curled up on the bed, "He's still after Wave Residence?"
