Chapter 628

Ronald nodded with a soft, "Yeah," ruffled her silky hair, and turned to leave the

Stella really was starting to feel sleepy.

She turned, crawled into bed, and was just about to drift off when her phone buzzed. It was Susanna. "Did you just grill Hull about something again?"

Stella squinted. "Or did you maybe blurt out something like, 'Let's get married right now'?"

Susanna: "!!!"

Uhh...

So now, in Stella's mind, these two things had become Susanna's signature

moves when it came to Hull-either stripping him down (figuratively or literally), or dropping some bombshell line.

Susanna groaned. "Remember earlier, when I told you I was scared to admit I liked him?"

Stella thought for a second. Yeah, that rang a bell.

Susanna always seemed to be poking or prodding Hull in some way, so it made sense Stella suspected there were feelings there.

"I remember. So what happened?"

Could it be something to do with that? Maybe she'd accidentally upset Hull again? Stella wouldn't be surprised. Whenever Susanna got into trouble with Hull, it was always in this exact way.

Susanna sighed. “He asked me why I'm scared to like him."
