Cross My Tigress Face the Wrath (Stella) novel Chapter 723

That was Barnaby’s first reaction.

He immediately blurted, “Wait, are you messing with us?”

“What?”

What kind of logic was that?

His thoughts jumped around so fast, no one could keep up.

Barnaby pressed on, “Come on, I don’t buy it. You’re an undercover, and you can’t even handle basic shooting?”

Susanna gaped at him. Seriously? He was still doubting her?

Oh, come on…

But the moment Barnaby brought up Susanna being a mole, he perked right up. “So, you and your mom are really done with Black Gate this time, huh?”

“If you want to talk about breaking ties, that should’ve happened ages ago. Derek Murray is a total snake.”

“According to the files, he and his current wife claim they’ve got one son and two daughters, but honestly, something seems off about that whole story.”

Susanna rolled her eyes. “What do you mean, ‘off’?”

Barnaby shrugged. “Who knows? That whole Black Gate crew is a mess, like a frat house after homecoming.”

Black Gate’s info was locked down tighter than Fort Knox—nobody on the outside could get real intel, especially about their current leader.

Barnaby always had a feeling there was more than one person running the show over there, not just old Dan Duff after he stepped down.

“Really, you don’t have to convince all of us,” Barnaby said, lowering his voice. “As long as the Boss trusts you, you’re good. But don’t get any ideas about double-crossing him, or we won’t hesitate to take you out. For real.”

These guys were loyal to Hull to the core.

When Barnaby finally dropped the Black Gate talk, Susanna just gave him a withering look. “So, are you gonna teach me or not?”

Barnaby hesitated, obviously torn.

Susanna was done waiting. She spun on her heel and stomped down the stairs, her boots thumping against the wood.

Barnaby scrambled to catch up. “Hey, come on, there’s no need to be like that!”

Susanna was already getting a headache.
