Men's minds work differently from women's. Hull suspected Susanna of being related to Black Gate. If he told Ronald his thoughts, Ronald might join him too. Without Ronald's help, saving Susanna from Hull's clutches would be like chasing a rainbow.

Seeing Ronald lost in thought, Stella sidled up to him and tugged at his sleeve with puppy-dog eyes. "Hey, Ron..."

She looked so determined yet adorably soft.

Barnaby sighed, rubbing his forehead. Oh boy, Boss's gonna lose his girl this time.

Ronald gave Stella's head a gentle ruffle. "I'll go have a word with Hull."

Stella nodded sweetly. "Okay," she chirped, but added, "I'm taking Susie with me no matter what."

Barnaby shook his head in disbelief. What kind of bond did they share, to stick together through thick and thin?

Ronald headed off, with Barnaby trailing behind, leaving Stella and Susanna alone.

Stella looked right into Susanna's bright eyes. "Don't worry. I'm not leaving you behind."

"Okay." Susanna nodded emphatically.
