Chapter 529

As their eyes met, Stella quickly averted her gaze.

Wow, when did Hull's stare become so intense? He was kind when Ronald was around, wasn't he?

With one look, her eyes returned to Hull, whose gaze was now fixed on Barnaby.

He turned back to Stella. "It's complicated. You know Ms. Tucker nearly got Mr. Miguel killed last night, right?"
