Chapter 502 

Despite the fear gnawing at her insides, Susanna couldn’t help but grit her teeth in frustration. 

Hull watched her, his eyes twinkling with amusement like she were a startled little bunny. 

His smirk widened. “You jumped into my arms yourself, so why the fuss now, huh?” 

Susanna was at a loss for words. Her cheeks flushed a deeper shade of red as she stammered, “Just… let go 

of me first.” 

She was genuinely worried about how things might escalate if it continued. 

Wait a minute. Something was off. Her eyes darted down to her own legs, her breath catching as she felt an unfamiliar tingle. 

Like a jolt of electricity, she sprang away from him, her mind a blank. “You, you…” 

“What?” Hull asked. 

Susanna was too flustered to form a coherent response. The rumors she’d heard from Star, were they true or not? Her mind spun as she bolted from the room, locking herself in her own room, her heart racing. 

Meanwhile, Stella was at the hospital when her phone buzzed with a call from Susanna. “What’s up, Susie?” 

“Star, your info’s all wrong. Who gave you this stuff, anyway?” 

Stella was puzzled. “Huh? What info?” 

Susanna hadn’t heard about Tegan’s accident yet. Otherwise, she wouldn’t be grilling Stella on this. 

“About Hull,” Susanna clarified. 

Stella still didn’t get it. “Uh, could you be more specific?” 

Susanna sighed. “You know, the whole ‘he’s not… functional‘ thing.” 

Stella nearly dropped her phone. “Wait, what? So, he is?” 

“Obviously,” Susanna replied, exasperated. 

“You tested it?” Stella asked, lowering her voice as she glanced at the room where Finley was checking on Tegan. 

Everyone said the same thing about Hull, including his friends. Barnaby had tried to test it by setting him up with a woman, and Hull had kicked her out within minutes. So why was Susanna saying otherwise? 

“Don’t get any ideas,” Susanna cut off Stella’s train of thought. 

“Uh, how did you know then?” Stella pressed. 

Susanna hesitated. “I was in his arms. That’s how I knew.” 

Stella was stunned, thinking it was getting harder to get Susanna’s point. 

“Why were you in his arms? Aren’t you scared of him?” 

Susanna fell silent, the air between them thick with unspoken words. 

“Oh, it’s too complicated to explain right now.” 

Stella sighed. “Okay, I’ll just imagine the rest.” 

“Don’t you dare!” Susanna snapped. “I can’t even begin to explain it.” 

Undoubtedly, Stella found it hard to understand the whole thing. And Susanna had no idea how to explain it, 

either.

Meanwhile, Hull lounged in his room, a devilish grin playing on his lips. The lingering scent of Susanna’s perfume only fueled the intrigue in his eyes.
