Cross My Tigress Face the Wrath (Stella) novel Chapter 463

Hull's eyes narrowed slightly, radiating an icy aura. His voice was chilly as he spat out, "What are you looking at?"

His tone was so cold that it could freeze over a summer's day.

Susanna snapped out of her daze immediately, shaking her head. "Nothing. I wasn't looking at anything. I knocked, but you didn't answer."

"So, you just barged in?"

"No, I didn't..." Her mind was in a fog. She quickly averted her gaze from Hull, who was practically a walking powerhouse.

Even though Susanna wasn't one to swoon over handsome guys, she felt a flush creeping over her. ‘Get a grip, Susanna...’

She'd seen plenty of good-looking guys in Portis City, so why was she losing her cool? She mentally berated herself, not realizing that Hull had moved closer.

When his warm fingertip brushed the corner of her lips, Susanna snapped back to reality, instinctively stepping back. "What are you doing?"

His fingertip, stained with a hint of crimson, was held up to her eyes. "What's this?"

Susanna's mind went blank at the sight of the blood on Hull's finger.

'Oh my God,' she thought. She instinctively wiped her upper lip with the back of her hand, only to find it smeared with blood.

She was dumbfounded. Seriously? She had a nosebleed over a handsome guy? How embarrassing!

"I, uh, I tend to get nosebleeds?" she stammered, her voice uncertain, unsure if she was explaining to him or trying to convince herself.

"Does this happen every time you see a guy?" Hull asked with a teasing smirk.

"Uh, yes!" Susanna nodded hastily.

But as soon as she nodded, she realized what Hull had actually said and quickly shook her head, "No, no, that's not it."

What a joke! Was she really that flustered by a handsome guy? Whether she admitted it or not, it seemed like that was exactly what happened.

"Today was just an accident," she quickly explained.

Hull's lips curled into a smile. "Get me a glass of water."

"Oh, sure."

Hearing Hull's request for water was like a pardon, and Susanna quickly turned to leave.

Just as she turned, she felt a tug on her shirt. Before she knew it, the towel Hull had wrapped around his waist fell right before her.
