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?

Barnaby glanced at Hull's not-so-happy expression. Then he respectfully approached Stella. "Hey, Princess Stella, it's not that Mr. Miguel isn't letting you take her, but you can't take her away now."

Stella raised an eyebrow at Barnaby's words. "What do you mean?"

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

Receiving Hull's silent command, Barnaby felt a rare sense of accomplishment. Finally, he'd done something clever before his boss.

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