Chapter 774

Stella: "So why would he snatch Susie from my sister right now?"

She honestly didn't get it.

If Dan Duff is butting heads with Lacey, wouldn't it make more sense for him to just sit back and enjoy the show?

What's the point of swooping in and taking Susie?

Ronald shrugged. "Maybe something's up between Lacey and Derek."

After all, those two used to be married, didn't they?

Stella hesitated. "But Susie..."

"Hey, don't worry about it, okay?" Ronald said gently, trying to ease her nerves.

And as always, Ronald's calm analysis helped Stella relax a little. She trusted him more than anyone always had, always would. If Ronald said Susanna would be fine, then she'd be fine.
