Love At The Next Stop Novel

Chapter 85 Men Are Good Against the Cold

The driver was dumbfounded. In this weather, there were very few cars passing on the highway, and even if there were, it would pass by very quickly; they could hardly save themselves, much less help another person. So, no one was willing to stop their car to help out.

Meanwhile, Matthew was making calls for help. Previously, he would take extra care when it came to Stella’s order, but he was busy with a meeting on this day. This was the only time he was busy, and yet this had to happen right at this timing.

Only after he had hung up anxiously did he notice that Miles was no longer around. After thinking about it for a long while, he finally knew where he had gone. Taking Zachariah with him, he stepped into the storm with a wind speed capable of breaking tree branches and left the place.

On the highway, Stella had taken a cab and reached the expressway ramp. The driver had called her to inform her that the truck had broken down and he couldn’t find help.

When she saw the carton boxes under the rain, all her frustrations rushed to her head. Are these people idiots who didn’t consider the prices of these goods? They’re just leaving it exposed to the weather?

Turning to see the driver looking foolishly at the situation, she felt a sudden urge to kill herself; this was all that she had left after all.

With an umbrella in her hand, she stood in the pouring rain and made calls, but none of them got through. She even tried to stop some cars, and still, none of them stopped.

This was a time when she was desperately calling for help, but nobody came.

Just then, her cell phone rang, and she wondered who was calling her at a time like this. When she saw that it was Miles who was calling her, she was rather taken aback.

Shivering in the cold, heavy rain, she picked up the call.

“Unblock me and send me your location,” Miles said.

Baffled, she shouted over the rain and sounded almost like she was crying. “Huh? What did you say?”

On the other end, Miles already heard the sound of the beating rain and the anxiety within her caused by the situation at her end. The wind was strong and her voice was breaking over the line, so he couldn’t hear her properly.

“Didn’t you block me on your contact list? Unblock me and send me your location,” he repeated in a strong and powerful voice.

Instantly, all of Stella’s anxiety evaporated. It seemed like he could always calm her down whenever she ran into such situations, even when she was in the middle of a storm now.

“I got it!” She hung up and unblocked him in the biting storm before sending her location to him.
