Love at the Next Stop

Chapter 102 Abstinence

Could it be Hollowcrest City since it was to the north of Murdough? But why would my luck in my career be in the north? I established my career in Murdough, though.

Stella took what he said with a pinch of salt and smiled wryly before letting him rest on a bench closer to the inside of the shop. After that, she even gave him some money so that he could get something to eat if he was hungry. The old man was very grateful toward her.

Then, Stella went back to review her shop’s accounts, and she suddenly received a text from Matthew. ‘Stella, Hollowcrest City. Now. Quick!’

Immediately, Stella called Matthew to ask whether anything urgent happened, and to that, Matthew replied that one of their important customers requested for a customization of a women’s outfit. Although he had managed to convince the customer to purchase from them, they didn’t have a designer for women’s clothes, so he wanted her to help them out.

This was official work. Moreover, Matthew was the one who paid for Stella’s studies overseas. Without any reasons to reject his request, Stella immediately bought a ticket back to Hollowcrest City.

Since Hollowcrest City was pretty near Murdough, people would rarely travel by plane, and Stella could see many leftover tickets every time she booked her flight, so she couldn’t help but wonder why Miles didn’t manage to get tickets. He obviously wasn’t one to travel by economy class seats, and there should have been more first-class and business class seats. I really wonder why he couldn’t get his flight tickets?

Stella was really confused. Regardless, she quickly packed up her stuff and figured that she should probably contact Miles before leaving.

Still, her call went unaccepted after it rang for a long time. Having no other choice, Stella sent him a text. ‘President Grant, I’ll be going to Hollowcrest City as President Xenon needs me there. However, I’m not sure when I’m returning.’

At the same time, Miles was at his company’s branch that had just been established on Burmington Road. This place used to be an agency without a legal entity and had a small scope, so he did his best to prepare for this branch’s opening. All in all, the reason why Miles’ opened this branch was obvious.

Since they had some fireworks performance, it was expected that Miles would not hear Stella’s call. He only managed to hear the notification when Stella texted him as she rarely sent voice messages. It was possible that her schedule was tight, or she was already on the way, so she had no choice but to do it.

Right after Miles moved part of his business here to Murdough, she’d have to return to Hollowcrest City. He chuckled bitterly at how things turned out. How many more times did they have to slip past each other in exchange for a perfect ending?

Miles couldn’t leave that night, as he had to stay in his branch company; he had bought a spacious place with four rooms and two halls above the branch. Frowning slightly, he placed his phone back into his pocket.
