Cross My Tigress Face the Wrath (Stella)
Chapter 205

Cloudia's gaze darkened with suspicion. Baffled, she turned to Ursula. "Ursula, what's she talking about? Who did you give that money to before?" Even if she were clueless before, Cloudia now realized Stella was referring to the mysterious disappearance of a ten thousand from Ursula's account. But how did Stella know?

Caught off guard, Ursula stared back blankly. "Oh, that? Got scammed by a con artist."

Cloudia chimed in, "Did you hear that? She was scammed!"

Stella sneered. "Really? Are you sure she didn't give it to a murderer?"

The mention of 'murderer' made Ursula's breath hitch!

Stella tilted her head slightly. "Idris, didn't your digging reveal it actually went to a murderer?"

"Yes, to a top-tier fugitive!" Idris confirmed.

Stella gasped, "A top-tier fugitive? What did you give him that money for? Was there some sort of deal?"

Ursula was speechless. Hearing this made her mind spin in panic, her complexion turning even paler, fear flickering in her eyes.

She knew-Stella knew everything!

Cloudia, utterly confounded, looked from Stella to Ursula. "Wait, Ursula, how did you end up mixed up with a top-tier fugitive? Why were you giving him money?" "I...I..."

"Yeah, why were you giving a fugitive money?"

Barraged by questions from Cloudia and Stella, Ursula's mind went blank.

All she could think was: It's over!

Looking at Stella, her heartbeat skyrocketed, until she couldn't take it anymore and fainted into Cloudia's arms.

Cloudia, initially puzzled, panicked when she saw Ursula faint.

Especially when Ursula's lips turned purple, she screamed, "Ursula, oh, Ursula! Someone call a doctor, quick!" Cloudia's cries were frantic.

Seeing Ursula's lips turn purple and her collapse made Stella lose interest.

She turned away. "Let's go."

"Right," Idris followed.

Even as they rounded the corner, Cloudia's hysterical screams still echoed, a clear sign of how worried she was for Ursula.

Idris glanced at Stella, concerned.

"Ursula is crafty. Don't worry, we'll sort out all the evidence soon."

The money had ended up with a murderer, but it wasn't a direct transaction from Ursula's account. It had passed through several hands, likely laundered along the way. Stella was nonchalant. "No rush."

Seeing Ursula's condition, Stella recalled Tegan's assessment that her illness wasn't faked. If Ursula were in good health, she would've been on Stella's hit list.

But seeing her so physically diminished was like divine justice. Her hair was almost gone!

Ursula had always prided herself on her looks. Now, the race against time for her life was torture enough.

Hearing Stella say "no rush," Idris understood her real intent.

"You really scared her earlier."

Stella chuckled mischievously, a playful light in her eyes.

This light-hearted mood was infectious, making Idris understand why Ronald was so drawn to Stella. She had a way of making even those shadowed by darkness feel alive. "Buzz, buzz"

Her phone buzzed. It was Ronald.

Stella answered, "Hey."

"Don't cause trouble, and don't linger."

Stella was at a loss for words. At that, she glanced at Idris trailing behind her.

Idris pretended to be absorbed in his thoughts, looking away.

Well, Mr. Quinn was worried about her being bullied by the Larkin family, so he recorded her scaring off the Larkin family members and sent it to Ronald.

Stella muttered, "I wasn't causing trouble."

Ronald said, "Good girl."

The man seemed genuinely busy, hung up after a few words.

Stella eyed Idris. "Did you send him the clip where I was the fiercest?"
