Cross My Tigress Face the Wrath

Chapter 398

Stella just couldn't get a straight answer.

Hull quipped, "Star, you're starting to sound like Finley with all those questions."

Finley, caught in the crossfire, felt his temper rise.

Stella was exasperated. She just wanted to know how Susie is doing!

"Can I at least talk to Susie for a minute?"

Talking to Hull was getting her nowhere. Maybe Susanna herself could shed some light on the situation.

Ronald interjected, "Pass the phone to Susanna."

Hull replied, "She's already passed out."

Stella was speechless. What on earth had happened to scare Susanna so badly?

Ronald exchanged a few more words with Hull before ending the call. The gist was to go easy on Susanna. Stella looked at Ronald with big, worried eyes. She couldn't help but feel anxious about her friend.

Ronald gently tousled her hair. "Don't worry. She was probably with Hull when they ran into the Doyne family." During one of Hull's missions, no less. It wasn't hard to imagine how Susanna might have fainted from the shock.
