Love At The Next Stop Novel

Chapter 12 Come to My House Tonight

At this precise moment, Stella’s cell phone rang with a call from her father, Korbin Johansson. Korbin had a small factory with mediocre performance, and it so happened that he made a loss when his wife was gravely ill. It was Zane who saved the Johansson Family. His phone call this time was none other than to have Stella ask Zane for a loan of 300,000. “But Dad, can’t you take out a loan?” Stella stared at Zane who was still foaming at the mouth.

“It’s difficult to get a loan since it requires a good credit score. How am I going to get a loan when I don’t have anything? Besides, 300,000 is not a huge sum for Zane, but I’m in urgent need of the money to pay my employees. Applying for a loan will take a few months,” Korbin said to her.

the man’s superior regality and unique tenderness blended together, an astringent feeling instantly assailed Stella. Sniffling, she replied, “It’s because of my father. He wants a loan, but Zane Levitt had a falling out with me. I’m sorry, President Grant. I shouldn’t have brought my emotions to work.” She wiped her tears. Zane had already drawn a clear line
