Chapter 108 I’m Not Above You Seducing Him

As soon as Miles saw Stella leaving for Hollowcrest City with the catalog, he knew that she would be expressing her gratitude to Matthew with a smile on her face. After all, a bosom friend was hard to come by, so he was certain she would want to express how much she treasured Matthew.

Stella was frightened by his presence. “You tailed me?”

Miles chuckled mirthlessly. “You’re overthinking things, Miss Johansson. In fact, it’s because you were so engrossed in your conversation with Matthew that you neglected my presence.”

Hearing that, she hung her head low sheepishly, as it was true that she didn’t notice anybody standing outside Matthew’s office. Her eagerness to return home and the fact that she went to Matthew as soon as she returned to Hollowcrest City riled him up.

Although she returned for work and to thank Matthew, both of them were distorted by Miles’ perception. It was as if he still perceived her as the disloyal woman whom he met last year, who would fall into the arms of every single man she met.

Last night, he was still addressing her endearingly, but he switched back to being formal today, which was exasperating for her. Thus, she entered her house and then slammed the door in his face.

Despite this, Miles didn’t try to barge into her house. After spending some time loitering about, he left.

The next day, Miles was napping on his chair in his office, all the while thinking of methods to deal with Zane. Although he had been meaning to do so for some time, he just didn’t have the time to. He saw Zane as a conniving man who first aborted his child and then repeatedly tried to cause him trouble. Therefore, he was determined to teach Zane a lesson while catching him off guard.

In fact, if it wasn’t for his concern over Stella trying to appease him, he had no qualms killing Zane off for all he cared. Other than Zane, Kevin was also a concern of his, but he decided he should leave him be for now. By noon, he asked Yulia out to talk over lunch.

The fact that Miles was the one who initiated contact made Yulia nervous, but at the same time feel as elated and confused as a young girl. She put on some light makeup, but she repeatedly removed and reapplied it as it just didn’t feel right. After all, it was her first ever alone time with Miles. Although she wasn’t sure why he asked her out, she figured it wouldn’t hurt to doll up.
