Cross My Tigress Face the Wrath

Chapter 111

Verbal sparring was Stella's forte. And sure, if it came down to a fistfight, Jaxon wouldn't stand a chance against her either.

The moment she dropped that bomb, Jaxon on the other end of the call felt his heart throbbing in frustration.

Hearing that Stella was even aware of his secret only made Jaxon double down on his resolve to get her out of the city. She was trouble, for him and for Ursula alike.

"You, you, I'm not gonna mince words here. Mom said you need to leave Portis City, pronto. Are you gonna go yourself, or do I have to make you?"

Jaxon's words, "make you", were spoken through clenched teeth, and Stella could tell he meant business.

But if it was a showdown he wanted, she was done playing nice. The truth was bound to come out sooner or later, so why bother hiding it?

"Oh, you're gonna make me? Really? And just how do you plan on doing that?" she scoffed.

Jaxon was speechless.

Stella went on, "If that guy tonight could pull me out of that mess, he's definitely got the means to keep me safe. Tell Ursula, I'm not going anywhere."

The events of the evening had unfolded like a series of calculated moves. Between the verbal jabs and the sneaky tricks, it was clear Ursula was desperate to have her out of Portis City.
