Yvonne held Stella's head firmly against her chest with one hand.
With the other, she reached for the hard metallic object tucked at her waist. Just as she was about to draw it...
Stella sensed her intent.
She quickly grabbed Yvonne's hand. "Don't handle it."
Yvonne raised an eyebrow. "Feeling merciful?"
Stella fell silent.
"Little Star, did the Sinclairs actually teach you how to be kind?"
Yvonne emphasized the word 'kind', a hint of displeasure lacing her tone.
She had trained Stella better than this.
When someone harbored malicious intent, there was no need for mercy, and no need for words—just eliminate the threat!
Seeing her little protégé hesitate was a bit disappointing...
Stella replied, "If you handle him, how will the message get back to the people who sent him?"
Lawrence Sinclair wanted to see exactly what kind of 'sugar daddy' was backing her?
Then she'd give him a show...
She loved watching those fools throw a desperate final party.
And it wouldn't hurt to let the Sinclair idiots see just how handsome her supposed 'sugar daddy' was!
Yvonne scoffed. "Those people? We could just wipe them out too, couldn't we?!"
She meant the Sinclairs!
Yvonne despised wasting time on insignificant pests.
As far as she was concerned, whether it was the Sinclairs or the Channings, they should all just be wiped off the map!
Stella didn't know what to say.
Right, sure!
Except, "We're in the city!"
Didn't she just say this place locked people up for a simple DUI?
Yet here Yvonne was, casually talking about "wiping people out" left and right.
Sure, wiping them out would be clean!
But it would also invite a massive headache.
Yvonne smirked. "You think any headache in this city could actually stick to me?"
Stella sighed. "No... but you're connected to me, and I'm connected to The Vances!"
Stella wasn't afraid of trouble, but she didn't want to accidentally drag The Vances into a massive fallout.
Yvonne paused.
Hearing Stella say that, she relaxed her grip.
"You really do overthink things, don't you?"
Stella gaped.
She had just had her body hijacked by a spirit for three years, she hadn't lost her ability to use her brain!
...
Exactly as Stella predicted.
