Love At The Next Stop Chapter 55

Chapter 55 The One You Love Is Divorced

“I asked someone.” Stella craned her neck, looking like a proud little cat.

“Who did you ask?” Miles kept asking. He had a look that said ‘I’m gobbling you up.’ His voice was as seductive as always, and as deep as he was handsome.

Stella’s face turned scarlet, but she didn’t answer. The answer was an absolute taboo for her.

Miles inched closer to her, lifting her chin up. “You can ask anyone else, but you chose her. What’s the meaning of this? Are you challenging me?”

He exposed her. So she told him. He wouldn’t know otherwise. No wonder he looked at me that way that day. And what is he trying to say? Not to approach his girlfriend? To know my place as a mistress?

Stella felt like she couldn’t keep anything a secret from him. He knew every thought she had, just like how he knew every inch of her body when they were in bed, as well as her every weakness. The more she knew him, the scarier he was, but that was also why she fell even further, for she couldn’t understand him.

It was as if he was hiding behind the veil, and the more she couldn’t see, the more she wanted to see. Stella pulled his hand away. “You’re imagining things, President Grant. I saw her coming up when I went down that day. I asked Mr. Moore, but he said he doesn’t know, and I don’t know anyone from finance. Since I bumped into her, I asked her. Nothing more, nothing less.”

He stared at her for a while. “You may go.” He called her something at the end of it, but she didn’t hear it clearly. It wasn’t her name though. She would know it if it was her name. What did he call me though? No. Not going to ask. Then Stella was let go.

Nowadays, she felt scared every time she went to see Miles. She had a feeling Miles was taking everything from her, and he could see her every thought.

It was lunch time when Stella came back. She brought her own lunch and heated it with a microwave oven. There were a few in the corridor, but most of the employees brought their own lunch, so there was a line. When it was her turn, she set it to five minutes.
