Cross My Tigress Face the Wrath (Stella) novel Chapter 797

Idris said, “Yeah, Susanna really did go with Hull to Yarrow Island in Nalog City.”

“She called Miss Yvonne, but it wasn’t anything serious. She just wanted to chat.”

Ronald let out a soft sigh of relief.

Back when Star was having her pregnancy check-ups, Susanna was always calling her. Ronald had really worried something might have happened.

And now Star was pregnant with triplets. He couldn’t afford any more of Susanna’s drama—one outburst from her could send Star into a tailspin.

But Hull…

“Hull took her and didn’t tell Yvonne?” Ronald asked.

Idris shook his head. “From what Susanna said, she wasn’t really sure, but judging by Yvonne’s reaction, Hull definitely didn’t give her a heads up.”

If Hull had let Yvonne know, she wouldn’t have stormed off to Black Gate.

And of course, if she went, Xander would follow.

Now the whole Black Gate was a mess—worse than a henhouse at feeding time.

Ronald squeezed his eyes shut for a moment.

Idris continued, “Lincoln, the guy who always shadows Mr. Miguel, already went to Black Gate. Looks like he’s setting up some big move there.”

Not telling Yvonne meant she was a key piece in whatever game he was playing.

Ronald snorted with a half-laugh. “Of course he’s scheming something big. Otherwise, how would he ever win over his mother-in-law?”

Idris blinked. “Uh… yeah, good point.”

Everyone knew how Hull felt about Susanna by now.

It was wild, really—Hull had never looked twice at a woman before, and now, just like that, he’d fallen for Susanna.

Since he liked her, of course he’d help out her mom and handle the Black Gate mess.

“So, should we give Yvonne a heads up?” Idris asked.

He pulled her into his lap. “Star, what do you think about us moving out? Just the two of us?”

“Huh?” Stella stared at him, wide-eyed.

Ronald couldn’t help thinking his mom had gotten a little too involved lately—especially with the bedroom situation. Now that they knew about the triplets, she’d definitely insist on them sleeping in separate rooms. Just thinking about it gave him a headache.

Stella protested, “Why do you suddenly want to move out? I like living here.”

She wasn’t like most women who struggled with living under the same roof as their mother-in-law. Stella had grown up with Lottie, so there was never any tension between them.

She didn’t want to leave.

Ronald looked at her. “I just want our own place.”

Somewhere it could be just him and Star.

Stella tugged at his shirt, pouting. “But I want to live with Mom and Yvonne. I miss them when they’re not around.”
