Cross My Tigress Face the Wrath

Chapter 564

With Stella's words echoing in her mind, Susanna couldn't shake the feeling that Hull was nothing but trouble.

"Can you joke about someone's mom?" she muttered to herself, thinking about how her own mother had been restless and sleepless for days now.

Even though Stella had mentioned that the previous person in charge was someone named Lacey, Susanna needed to be sure.

Stella had assured her, "Yeah, I'll help you confirm."

If it turned out that Susanna's mother was involved, things could get messy. After all, the current leader's rise to power was anything but honorable.

After exchanging a few more words over the phone, mostly Stella trying to soothe Susanna's nerves, they finally hung up.

Susanna sat curled up on her little couch, her mind a whirlwind of confusion. Hull told Mr. Quinn he liked her? Why on earth would he do that? Was he really trying to pull one over on Mr. Quinn?

If so, he had to be pretty bold to try and deceive Mr. Quinn.

Lost in thought, Susanna was startled by a noise from the balcony window. Her eyes widened in shock.

Before she could react, the sound of the sliding glass door opening reached her ears, followed by the swish of curtains being drawn back.
