Cross My Tigress Face the Wrath

Stella's return to the Larkin family drove Ursula into a hysterical frenzy. She'd smile sweetly on the outside but was seething with resentment behind closed doors.

After causing so much havoc, did she really think fate would spare her?

There came the reckoning.

After all the effort she put into clawing her way up, Ursula ended up with nothing. Her health was failing, and it was doubtful she'd last long out there.

Stella remarked, "The Larkin family is at each other's throats now. They can't even spare a thought for her. Jaxon is taking all his frustrations out on her."
