Cross My Tigress Face the Wrath

Chapter 383

Cloudia had been waiting outside the Horner residence.

She had come here the moment she heard Tegan returned home two hours ago, determined to wait as long as it took.

Whether it was because of the Larkin family's recent misfortunes or some other reason, she couldn't even get past the front gate.

The doorman had been firm, insisting she leave, saying Tegan wouldn't see her. But leaving wasn't an option. The thought of Ursula's suffering weighed heavily on her heart, urging her to persist. Finally, Tegan emerged.

Cloudia rushed forward, her voice trembling with desperation, "Ms. James, please, I beg you, help my daughter."

Tegan crossed her arms, her expression indifferent as she asked. "Which daughter are you talking about?"

Cloudia's face froze at her question, her voice caught in her throat. "My... my adopted daughter, Ursula."

"Oh, adopted daughter, huh? The way you were acting, I thought it was your own flesh and blood, Stella, who was in trouble."

Cloudia was momentarily speechless at the mention of Stella, her lips twitching as she struggled to respond.
