Cross My Tigress Face the Wrath (Stella) novel Chapter 528

People like him always made others nervous, especially when emotions started to run high. No one really knew what someone with low intelligence might do when they got all fired up.

"Is there someone else up there?"

"Yeah. Barnaby just went up. Didn't you see?"

Although Susanna had only glanced briefly, she found herself quite wary of the person next to Hull.

"Alright then, I'll go say hi to Hull. You pack and get ready. We'll leave when I get back."

"I don't have anything to pack."

Susanna had been whisked away by Tania without a moment's notice, leaving her no time to gather her things.

The more she thought about her situation, the more upset she felt. Her mother was still missing, and sending her to Ferrowland should be the safest plan. But upon arriving, she realized people were waiting for her here too, and now Tania was gone as well.

Stella nodded. "Okay, wait for me here."

"Okay." Susanna nodded earnestly, looking adorable and compliant. Right now, she only had Star, and Star was the only one she felt she could wait for.

Curious about what was so captivating on the phone, Barnaby tiptoed to sneak a peek. It seemed like surveillance footage. What was so interesting about that?

Before Barnaby could ponder further, there was a knock on the door, and Stella's voice, as sweet as a kitten, came from outside. "Hull, are you available?"
