Cross My Tigress Face the Wrath

Chapter 397

Stella's lips twitched slightly. She glanced at Finley, then at Ronald, as a million questions danced around in her head.

What on earth was Hull talking about? Was it what she thought it was?

No way, that was way too fast! Was Susie okay with it? She had to be against it. And in such a situation, what did it all mean?

Stella's imagination ran wild as she tried to piece it all together.

Finley let out a sharp breath.

"Hull, you're really something. Did Ms. Tucker really get you so riled up that you..."

"Wait, Hull, what do you mean? Did Susie agree to this?" Stella asked urgently.

With her voice trailing off, Susanna's tear-filled voice came through from the other end before Hull could answer.

"Star, Star, please, you have to save me. I didn't come here willingly. I was so close to death... I'm terrified."

Stella and Finley were shocked. Both turned to Ronald in alarm.

Stella was frantic. "Ronald, you heard that, right? Susie wasn't willing."
