Cross My Tigress Face the Wrath (Stella)
Chapter 161

Harper had no clue what that ring was supposed to do, but she knew for sure Jeremy had passed it on to Stella. Because Jeremy mentioned it was all about making amends. So, when he took that ring with him, Harper was quite puzzled.

But, trying to figure out the boss's intentions? That was a no-go zone for the likes of them.

"I gave it to Ms. Quinn?"

Harper nodded, "Yeah, you did."

Jeremy was rendered speechless. He was in deep trouble!

Remembering how he forcefully handed the box to Stella, Jeremy slapped his forehead in frustration.

He had grabbed the wrong item, and now he was in a real mess.

He glared at Harper fiercely, "Why didn't you remind me?"

Making amends with a ring? What was she thinking?

Harper answered, "I did ask you, and you said it was for Ms. Quinn. I didn't dare say more."

Everyone at Patel Group knew Jeremy hated when people tried to read his mind. Since he had said it was for Stella, Harper didn't dare utter another word.

Seeing Jeremy's expression, Harper was confused, "Was it a mistake?"

"Who makes amends with a ring?" Jeremy's tone was fierce, almost threatening.

Harper thought, exactly!

She wanted to ask before, but Jeremy was already so agitated over the spat between Sirena and Stella, his mood was terrifying.

Harper cautiously suggested, "So, what now? Ask for it back?"

That suggestion earned her an even harsher glare from Jeremy, prompting her to immediately shut up.

Asking for it back? Once Jeremy gave something away, he never took it back. But making amends with a ring...

Jeremy felt a headache coming on.

Asking for it back was not a good option, but his gut told him that ring was bound to cause trouble.

Right on cue, Jeremy's phone rang at the moment.

It was Idris. Switching gears instantly, Jeremy answered, "Hello, Idris."

"Our boss says we have no intention of exporting our minerals. Mr. Patel, you should stop bothering yourself."

"What? No intention of exporting? But you were clearly selecting potential partners before..."

The call ended abruptly before Jeremy could finish.

Jeremy was stunned. He was speaking the truth. Ronald's plans to take the mineral operations global were no mistake.

No intention of exporting now?

Remembering Ronald's long face during Sirena and Stella's argument, and the words Idris just said over the phone, Jeremy couldn't help but think of the ring he gave to Stella.

Did Ronald see the ring?

Jeremy winced, a headache throbbing painfully.

After a moment of thought, he instructed Harper, "Get me Stella's number."

"Right away."

Harper quickly searched for Stella's contact and sent it to Jeremy. But Jeremy hesitated to call. It was likely Ronald and Stella were together at this hour.

According to Stella, if they were to collaborate, Ronald despised anyone in contact with members of the Quinn family. He couldn't directly reach out to Stella now. Better wait until tomorrow at the office. Caius called again, "I'm downstairs at your office. I came to pick up the ring."

"What ring? Don't bother me with your problems from now on!"

This was a disaster. Couldn't even manage his own household, and now making a fuss over a ring.

What was he supposed to do now?

Giving the ring to Stella, wasn't that just making an enemy out of Ronald? Ronald's interest in Stella wasn't simple, evident from how he dealt with the Schultz family.

Caius, that idiot, if it weren't for him, none of this mess would've happened.

What was he to do now?

Just thinking about the fate of the Schultz family made Jeremy uneasy about crossing Ronald.

Suddenly furious, Jeremy snapped, leaving Caius on the other end confused, "What do you mean? You didn't give that ring to Kellan, did you?"
