Chapter 396

Stella countered, "Oh, shut up, she just slipped, it was an accident."

What the heck was with this? She really didn't want to talk to Finley. He made her want to scream.

Finley kept on, "Ha, plenty of people have lost their footing around Hull, but I haven't seen a woman yet who dared to actually take off..."

"Enough already." Hearing Finley start to run his mouth again, Stella could feel a headache coming on. She really had zero desire of listening to him.

"You really have a knack for talking yourself into trouble," Stella sighed.

Finley was caught off guard. He glanced at Ronald, who was looking a bit out of sorts, and wisely decided to zip it.

Stella addressed, "Ronald."

"Okay, I'll give Hull a ring."

Finley was rendered speechless.

Of course, she was the princess around here, who else could get Ronald to jump like this?
