Cross My Tigress Face the Wrath (Stella) novel Chapter 503

The conversation quickly turned to the accident that landed Tegan in the hospital today.

Susanna was shocked. "Tegan was in a car accident? What happened? And now she wants to head over to Ferrowland with you?"

What on earth was going on? She fired off three questions, hitting Stella like a ton of bricks.

Susanna pressed, "Is something going on between them?"

At this point, it was hard not to let the mind wander.

Stella sighed, "It's a long story."

Susanna said, "Can you make it back to Ferrowland tonight? If not, no worries. Tegan's health is more important than my little anxieties."

Stella replied, "As it stands, I can."

Tegan was acting like she couldn't wait to leave Portis City behind.

Susanna remained silent, but she was sure something had happened between Tegan and Uriah. Would Tegan be so eager to leave if everything was okay?

"Okay then, just keep an eye on her." There wasn't much Susanna could do from afar, and a phone call wouldn't unravel the whole story.

Stella acknowledged, "Yeah, I know."

With that, they ended the call.

Susanna still felt unsettled, and just then, there was a knock at the door.

Susanna's heart skipped. It was Hull.

"Susanna." His voice carried through the closed door.

Just hearing Hull's voice made Susanna feel like she was overheating. There was a warm sensation under her nose.

She reached up and wiped.

Oh no, a nosebleed again?

Glancing down at her smoke-gray loungewear, she noticed a red stain spreading across her chest. The nosebleed had started a while ago, and she hadn't even realized it.

"I'm coming. I'm coming."

Darn it, why did it have to be now?

This man was truly something else. And with that thought, more blood started flowing.

Hull frowned. "Do you need me to call a doctor?"

Susanna waved her hands frantically. "No, there's no need. Just head back to your room."

What would she even say to the doctor? That she was bleeding because she'd been ogling a handsome man?

Hull gave her a long look before turning back to his room.

Susanna called after him, "Wait for me. I'll be right there."

How she said "wait for me" seemed to carry a different weight to Hull's ears.

...

Meanwhile, back in Portis City, Finley completed a thorough check-up on Tegan and informed Stella, "She's good to go."

Stella nodded, feeling somewhat relieved.

After Uriah left, Tegan's whole demeanor seemed a bit off. To Stella, Tegan had always been bright, cheerful spirit, but the whole situation now...
