Cross My Tigress Face the Wrath

Chapter 82

"Mom, please, calm down. I think Star might have felt that the allowance we gave her wasn't enough, but she could've just told us, you know? We..." Ursula's voice trailed off, leaving the words unsaid. Yet, even without hearing the rest, everyone now seemed to think Stella was irresponsible. They even went as far as to suspect the money she earned was dirty. Now, they were all scheming on how to shut down her studio.

After leaving Ursula's hospital room, Blaise had his assistant reach out to Stella. It took a couple of phone calls before they finally got through to her. Stella was about to kick back with a video game.

On the phone, Blaise's assistant said, "Ms. Quinn, Mr. Larkin is currently at the coffee shop across from Silk-River Residences. Could you please come by?" Stella raised an eyebrow. "And if I don't?"

"If you don't, well, you might not be able to keep your studio open much longer."

The assistant's tone was particularly firm.

More threats?

Stella chuckled, "Well, then let him try and shut it down if he can."

Enough with the empty threats. They'd been playing this game for days now, stopping her cards and throwing threats around. With that, she hung up the phone directly.

The assistant, taken aback by the abrupt end of the call, looked towards Blaise, who frowned in response. "What happened?" "She said you should try shutting down the studio yourself because she won't be coming."

Blaise's face turned steely at the words.

"That defiant girl. Did you tell her I was at the coffee shop right at the entrance?"
