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..."

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?

Stella heard the dial tone fade out and felt her heart tighten.
