Cross My Tigress Face the Wrath (Stella) novel Chapter 1167

Tegan forced a small smile. "That's alright. I'm used to it by now."

Ever since her father passed away, she had slowly learned to navigate the coldness of the world, accepting her isolation piece by piece. By now, the bitterness of life was just a familiar taste.

But seeing Lottie hold Stella with such gentle affection sparked more than just envy. Looking at Lottie's face, she felt a strange, comforting familiarity. It made her sigh inwardly. She had almost forgotten what her own mother's embrace felt like.

"I'm still sharing half with you," Susanna insisted, her heart aching even more at Tegan's quiet resignation.

Mona Haig received another call from Berry.

"Mom, what am I going to do? I'm so upset. My heart is breaking," Berry sobbed helplessly through the receiver.

The mere thought of Ronald marrying Stella today was tearing her apart. She had been secretly in love with him for years! And now, he was actually tying the knot with Stella.

What gave Stella the right? Why was the universe so obsessed with her? She was just the Quinn family's adopted daughter. They had already given her an amazing life—why did she get to marry Ronald, too? It was completely unfair.

"Mom..." Berry wailed in agony.

Mona's head throbbed. "Where are you right now?" she hissed, keeping her voice low.
