Chapter 556

Stella was right. When it came to Hull, it was all about survival, and from now on, she's not doing a single thing.

Listening to her voice, full of grievance, Hull glanced down, a slight smirk creeping onto his lips.

"Then don't do anything."

Susanna inquired, "So you just want to keep a freeloader around?"

"A suspect."

Susanna's eyes widened.

"Alright then, a suspect it is." she murmured to herself.

After all, what happened last night was no small thing. Hull had a close call, and Susanna knew if anything had happened to him, she probably wouldn't have lived to see today.

"Just make sure your people get to the bottom of this quickly," she insisted. She swore that once everything was resolved, she'd fly straight to Stella and never look back at Hull again.

Over the past few days, Susanna, who had never believed in bad luck, was beginning to suspect that Hull was a jinx. How many things had gone wrong since she'd been around him? She still had a lot of living left to do.

"But what if your people get it wrong?" Susanna asked, glancing at Hull with apprehension.

After all, it was his team doing the digging. If they pinned something on her by mistake, she'd be done for. They were already itching to get rid of her as it was; if they found anything solid, she'd be toast.
