Cross My Tigress Face the Wrath

Chapter 638

Seriously, what is it with Hull these days?

Does he not listen to me anymore? Now he's even asking Susie for some kind of "payment."

If he wants something, why not just say it straight out?

He knows Susanna's been losing her mind ever since she got to Ferrowland, worrying about her mom.

But instead of helping, Hull keeps stringing her along. What's wrong with this guy?

I never realized Hull was such a piece of work before.

Bottom line, whatever's going on between Susanna and Hull right now is a total mess, and Stella's brain feels like it's turning to mush.

They exchanged a few more words on the phone before hanging up, and just then, Ronald came out from the back room.

He spotted Stella leaning against the door and ruffled the back of her neck. "What're you looking at?"

"Huh? Oh, I was watching my sister... Wait, where'd she go?"

She was right there a second ago!

She just took a call from Susie and-poof-gone.

Ronald glanced at the now-empty doorway. "She went out."

"Yeah, Xander came to see her. She was saying something about 'kicking Xander

out.""

Wasn't she going to kick him out? Why'd she disappear too?

Honestly, with her, who knows—maybe she just needed to go blow off some steam.
