Cross My Tigress Face the Wrath (Stella) novel Chapter 910

Tegan caught a whiff of the same smell that had been coming from the clothes Finley had discarded outside.

The butler approached her respectfully. "Stella will be down in a moment."

"Okay, thank you," Tegan nodded.

The butler had someone bring Tegan a choice of juice or coffee. She chose the juice.

About twenty minutes later, Stella came downstairs. She looked refreshed, and her hair was still slightly damp at the temples, clear evidence that she'd just showered.

"Tegan," Stella began apologetically, "I was already on my way down to meet you, but... something came up."

"Was it because of Prof. Yoder?"

"You ran into him?" Stella asked. Finley was world-renowned in his field, so of course Tegan would know who he was. Since Tegan also had a prominent international standing, it was possible they knew each other, even if they didn't travel in the same circles.

Tegan set down her juice glass and nodded. "Yes. I happened to see him... without most of his clothes on."

"What?"

"He was stripping as he walked away."

Stella sighed. She knew it. Finley's overwhelming stench had to have been deliberate.

"What brings you to Ferrowland all of a sudden? I thought you were going to Yoreland."

"I'm here for an academic conference, so I thought I'd stop by and see you," Tegan explained. Her gaze shifted to Stella's noticeably round belly. "Star, I'm so jealous of you."
