Those things I asked Tristan Schultz for last time? Yeah, turns out those were some of the very last treasures the Schultz family had left.
Otherwise, back then, why do you think Xander’s stepmom, Mona Haig, and Yale Schultz were both freaking out like someone set their hair on fire?
The Schultz family’s stash was already running on fumes.
Now Yvonne managed to walk away with a pretty hefty chunk of what was left.
But honestly, I can’t really blame Xander for being so ruthless about it.
After all, it’s possible Mona is the real reason his mom ended up dead.
“So, with all that in mind, you should probably be a little nicer to Xander,” Julia chimed in.
Yvonne was stunned. “!!!”
Seriously?
Dan’s gonna go ballistic on her when he gets home.
After faking his own death back in the day, Yvonne’s convinced he was just playing games with her the whole time.
And if that’s the case, then all the feelings she poured out for him just seem pointless.
…
Meanwhile, over at the Quinns’ place—
Stella was sprawled on the chaise lounge, chatting on the phone with Susanna.
Back when they both lived in Brighton, Susanna was always a sucker for gossip, and after what happened last night…
Stella had been worried the drama would really mess with her.
But now…
“You’re saying… ugly?”
Susanna replied, “Oh yeah, seriously ugly.”
Stella nearly dropped her phone. “!!!”
They were talking about those twins—Leanne and Ivanna—who tried to break into the Hulls’ place last night.
Stella had never met them, but she’d heard the rumors: “the ugliest princesses in the kingdom.” Apparently, it wasn’t even an exaggeration.
