Chapter 408
Susanna kept on, “I might just have a serious reputation loss here, ah… and you’re siding with him? I can’t believe you’re on his side.”
“I’m not!” Stella’s mind went totally blank as she listened to Susanna’s breakdown.
Susanna wailed, “Ugh, what kind of mess have I gotten myself into? My life’s falling apart, and now this…”
Stella exclaimed, “He’s totally impotent!”
In her panic, Stella interrupted Susanna.
The word “impotent” hung in the air, causing an immediate silence on the line.
Ronald, who was sitting on the couch preparing some medication for her, glanced up at her upon hearing it, eyes wide with astonishment.
Even Susanna stopped crying. “Stella, wh–what did you just say?”
Susanna felt like she must have misheard. How else could she have heard such earth–shattering words?
Through Susanna’s whining, Stella suddenly snapped back to reality, realizing the gravity of what she had just
blurted out.
Yes, she had previously discussed with her sister Yvonne whether Hull was really impotent or not. But they had always whispered about it, never daring to discuss it openly.
Apart from their private discussions, no one else knew about this because they were well aware that if Hull ever got wind of it, they’d be in big trouble.
If Susanna hadn’t been so upset, Stella, who was not one to gossip behind people’s backs, would never have said such a thing.
And now, she regretted it deeply. She dreaded the possibility of this reaching Hull’s ears.
Stella took a chill breath. “Uh, you absolutely can’t tell Hull I said that.”
“What did you just say?” Susanna insisted on asking.
Stella answered, “He might be… impotent.”
This time she added a “might“, lacing her words with uncertainty. After all, no one had seen it firsthand, so who really knew what Hull was like?
Susanna gasped, and even through the phone, Stella could sense her reaction.
“What makes you say that?”
Stella replied, “Well, he just looks at those gorgeous women and never makes a move. I’ve never seen him actually do anything.”
As she said this, she could feel Ronald’s eyes on her, which made her even more uneasy.
Susanna questioned, “How do you know he never made a move?”
Stella responded, “Everyone knows it!”
It was not just her; Yvonne knew it pretty well, and everyone around Hull knew it too. He was like an art collector who never touched the masterpieces.
Susanna was astounded.
Just watching, never making a move?
“Maybe those women aren’t his type? Not beautiful enough?”

Stella denied, “No way, they are all tall, slim, and way more stunning than you.”
Susanna was speechless.
Stella went on, “So whatever you think he did to you, I doubt it.”
“Are you saying I’m not pretty enough?”
Stella explained, “Hey, I’m just saying those women are drop–dead gorgeous.”
Those women had figures neither she nor Susanna could compete with.
Susanna took a cold breath on the other end, and her crying and despair seemed to subside. After thinking for a moment, she said, “So it seems like he really might have an issue in that department.”
As soon as she said it, the door swung open, and there stood Hull, his eyes darkening as if he was ready to devour someone alive.
Susanna met his terrifying gaze, her hand shaking so much she dropped the phone onto the bed. She swallowed hard.
Seriously? Did he hear that? Wait, she didn’t really say anything. She hoped she hadn’t said anything.
