Love At The Next Stop Chapter 15

Chapter 15 Birthday Party

If it were someone else, Stella would definitely think that the person was flirting with her. However, Miles asked that question as though it was a matter of fact, acting like he had the right to know the answer to that in the first place. Stella gaped at him with widened eyes. Never had she expected such a conversation, so she didn’t quite know how to answer him.

Seemingly gratified by her expression, Miles turned back to the road. “Who’s better between the two of us?”

Stella’s heart pounded wildly. What’s the meaning of this? He’s blatantly asking a married woman whether her husband is better in bed or he’s better? “I don’t know.” She turned her face toward the window. It was true that she didn’t have any idea since she’d never tried Zane’s skills in bed.

Then, Miles said nothing further, and they went to the restaurant in silence. Even while they were eating, neither said anything. Miles scrutinized Stella’s expression, but she kept her head lowered as she ate, ignoring him altogether. After lunch, he said that he was attending a birthday party soon, yet he still didn’t have any idea on what to pick as a gift, so he asked her to help him out.

Lifting her hand, Stella glanced at her watch. Lunch break is one and a half hours, and it’s already 12:50 now. While the company isn’t very strict about this, I’m still in my probation period, so it’ll look bad if I’m back late. Besides, picking a gift is a tedious thing. Without 40 minutes or an hour, I won’t be able to pick a good gift. “I’m going to be late,” she said with a frown as she stood by the restaurant entrance.

“I’ll take half a day’s leave for you.” After that, Miles actually took out his cell phone to ask for the rest of the day off on Stella’s behalf.

Conversely, Stella was particularly panicked. “No, President Grant! It isn’t appropriate for you to take the day off on my behalf. I’ll do it myself.” Everyone will get the wrong idea if the president takes the day off on my behalf. Is he neglecting other people’s feelings because he’s high and mighty? Or did he deliberately say that? When she called her director, she gave no details, merely telling the director of the design department that she had something to do this afternoon, so she’d be back a bit later, and the director approved it.

As they both strolled in the mall, Stella naturally had to ask Miles about the recipient of the gift since he was asking her to help pick a gift. After all, that was closely linked to the gift itself. “Are you close with the person?” she asked with her head tilted as she looked at the items in the mall.
