Love At The Next Stop Chapter 14

Chapter 14 So, It Was Him

In her trance, Stella suddenly glimpsed the watch on Miles’ wrist, the large face glimmering in the dark night. She’d never seen such a watch whereby every single minuscule letter on it was as clear as day. All at once, her mind splintered with a bang. On the eve of her graduation half a year ago, she drowned her sorrows and got hammered. In her haste, she grabbed hold of a man on the street.

“You’re drunk,” the man stated, his brows furrowed.

Stella wrapped both arms around his neck to support her tottering self, her gaze glassy. “I’m not drunk. I’m troubled, so keep me company.”

Women were most bewitching when they were intoxicated, much less Stella who was beguiling with glazed eyes and a flushed face, giving off a sense of tipsy sensuality. Her hands around the man’s neck were so tight that the man simply couldn’t pry them off. After a moment’s silence, he scooped her up and took her to a hotel.

Despite having forgotten the man’s countenance, she’d never forgotten that night of passion. The lights were turned off, so she couldn’t see the man’s face. However, she remembered that the man was wearing a luminous watch that was truly stunning in the dark, and it was exceptionally special with a row of English letters on it. At that time, she thought, This watch must have cost a fortune! At least, I’ve never seen a luminous watch whose entire face glows, every single minuscule letter on it as clear as day.

So, it was him! It was actually him!

“Unexpectedly, your memory isn’t all that poor since you still remember me, Mrs. Levitt,” Miles drawled as he gently hooked a finger under her chin, forcing her to look at him.

How could I possibly forget? Which woman will ever forget her first night?

“Did it hurt?”

“Huh?” Stella lifted her head in slight puzzlement. Upon realizing what he meant, her face instantly flushed bright red.
