Chapter 416

Stella looked like she was feeling a little off.

Seeing Ronald, she set her phone down. Susanna hadn't answered her call.

Ronald asked, "Feeling under the weather?"

Stella nodded. "Yeah, I guess I caught a chill. My stomach's a bit upset."

Ronald lifted her from the couch swiftly and settled her onto his lap. His warm hand brushed her forehead, "No fever."

"I'm craving some pudding right now."

She didn't know why, but suddenly, she had a strong urge to eat some.

Ronald said, "The kitchen's already on it."

Stella snuggled closer into his embrace.

Ronald pinched her cheek playfully. "Want me to have Finley come take a look?"

"No need. Maybe some pudding will do the trick."

Just the mention of Finley gave Stella a headache. He was the last person she wanted to see right then.

His mouth was something she just couldn't handle.

As luck would have it, Finley walked in just in time to see Ronald holding Stella.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa! Are we getting all lovey-dovey in here? Did you sort out everything with

Ferrowland?"

Stella's eyebrows twitched, and she instinctively tried to get up from Ronald's lap.

But Ronald pressed her head gently back into his chest, shooting Finley a cold look.

Finley shrugged. "Hey, I'm looking out for you two."
