Cross My Tigress Face the Wrath (Stella) novel Chapter 1158

Yvonne had used some excuse about a financial dispute to lock everything down. In other words, Mona couldn't spend a single cent without Yvonne's explicit approval.

Ever since she hooked up with Tristan, Mona never thought she would be reduced to begging. Yet here she was, stripped of all her pride.

"I... I need some funds right now," Mona said nervously. "Could you handle that for me?"

She used to be so incredibly smug whenever she dealt with Xander. Now? That was all gone.

The moment Xander heard she needed money, he knew Yvonne had executed her plan flawlessly.

"Yvonne manages the finances," Xander said coldly. "I don't have any money."

"What did you just say?" Mona gasped.

No money? Was that really something Xander would say? He was broke? Impossible.

How much had he and Yvonne siphoned from the Schultz estate lately? Thanks to Regina's sheer stupidity, Ronald had nearly wiped out their entire empire. Whatever scraps remained, Xander and Yvonne had swept up.

Right now, they were the only ones who had access to cash, and he was claiming he didn't have any? She was practically begging him, and this was his response?

Mona's blood boiled.

"She controls the accounts," Xander stated bluntly. "If you need cash, talk to her."

Talk to Yvonne? With the way Yvonne treated Mona, the fifty grand she had promised earlier was a pipe dream. Now, Yvonne would ruthlessly interrogate her over every single dime, demanding receipts for everything.

Xander didn't wait for a reply. He simply walked away, leaving Mona fuming in the hallway.

Meanwhile, at the Quinn estate.

Just as Xander predicted, Stella's bed was incredibly crowded that night. Both Susanna and Tegan were there. Yvonne arrived right behind Tegan.
