Love At The Next Stop Novel

Chapter 104 Aren’t You Afraid Now That Our Relationship Is Public Knowledge

The reason being—the vice president of Miller Corp informed Zane that Edward had already sealed the deal with Miles Conglomerate. He also relayed their conversation to Zane.

On the other hand, there was a lot that Edward didn’t speak to Miles about regarding the content of Zane’s article. He only mentioned some of the inconsequential parts regarding Stella, which could easily be dismissed as a minor love affair. The other more serious incident that Zane had mentioned, however, had to do with Jasmine.

According to him, Miles was a f*ckboy who caused a girl who had deep feelings for him to be left with a permanent disability. The revelation caused an uproar, and the press were soon gathered at the hospital that Jasmine was in.

Miles didn’t know Jasmine was transferred to Murdough. Besides, he had just kickstarted his branch office, so he was working around the clock. Thus, he didn’t have time to do anything about the rumors.

On the other hand, none of the business journalists were interested in Jasmine’s story; only the entertainment journalists were concerned with it.

The fact that the press started bugging Jasmine wasn’t within Kevin’s expectations when he first planned to transfer her to a hospital in Murdough. His intention was similar to Zane’s—to keep Stella away from Miles, as Jasmine would be heartbroken otherwise. However, things had gone off track, which caused him to berate Zane.

Kevin and Yulia were the ones who planned to transfer Jasmine to Murdough. While he assumed that he might be able to get something out of it, he seemed to be the sole loser. Although the situation was giving him a headache, he couldn’t tell anybody about it.

Zane’s plan wasn’t only to avenge himself for losing the contract, for he had a second goal—to separate Stella and Miles. The last time when Stella was hospitalized, he bumped into Miles dropping by to visit her. Miles’ condescending attitude toward him irked him then. And now that they moved Jasmine to Murdough…

Although he was hoping that Stella would relay the news to Miles, she was quite wary of the whole thing, having avoided the mistake either due to her smarts or out of sheer luck. Since Stella was still unwell, he was willing to bet that Miles would never let her go to Murdough, considering the fact that he fancied her.

Therefore, he sent Stella a text, informing her that someone made a bet with Miles regarding her. If she went to Murdough, Miles would be able to secure the contract, but would lose it if she didn’t. Now, the ball was in her court.

When Stella received the message, she was working on a blueprint in the studio. Pacing around in the room, she wondered why Zane would send her that text. Thus, she texted Miles. ‘Do you need me to go to Murdough?’
