Cross My Tigress Face the Wrath (Stella) novel Chapter 461

Silas had left.

Susanna stood there, frozen in place, unable to process what had happened.

What did Silas just say?

The night before last, Hull cared for her in the same way, huh? Was that why her clothes were gone?

Her already restless mind was now in complete turmoil, especially after Silas mentioned that she should look after Hull in the same way...

Cool him down physically, wipe him all over? No, this can't be real!

...

Meanwhile, at Stella's, she dabbed Ronald's chest with a warm towel, ensuring he wouldn't feel terrible in the morning.

Susanna's call came through as she poured the warm water down the sink. "Star, I can't do this."

Stella asked, "Can't do what?"

"Taking care of Hull, you know, physically cooling him down? Everyone just up and left him with me, saying I should check if he had a fever in the night. This kind of care..."

Susanna was spiraling into panic. "Is this something I can do? Is this something I should do?"

Did the people around Hull even think before they spoke? Asking her to wipe him all over?

"It's just a fever. Does it have to be this complicated?" Stella was at a loss for words.

Before Stella could respond, Susanna continued, "And the worst part? That's why he took my clothes off the other night.

Do I need that kind of care from him? Are there no hospitals in Ferrowland? And now, they want me to care for him in return? Are they even serious?"

Susanna was fuming. She paced the room, words tumbling out like a waterfall.

Stella was stunned. Whatever was happening over there, Stella had no clue. But judging by Susanna's reaction, being around Hull seemed to be getting out of hand.

Clearing her throat, Stella offered, "If Hull's hurt, he might have a fever tonight. Maybe give him some fever medicine, and if that doesn't work..."

"Even worse," Susanna interrupted, "Is he broke or what?"

Stella replied, "No, he's not."

"Then why doesn't he hire a nurse? If he's got money, he could hire ten nurses if he wanted, right?"

"He could," Stella agreed.
