Love at the Next Stop

Chapter 139 I Will Slap You Every Time I See You

Ever since Miles’ last message to her, pleading for her to return to his side, he did not contact her anymore.

At some point, she started to be more acutely aware of Miles’ mind, as though she could read all his thoughts from a distance.

This time, she also understood what Miles was thinking. He did not contact her for a long time to give her space to decide on who she truly loved.

Zachariah noticed that she was spacing out and called out, “Miss Stella! Miss Stella!”

Pulled back to reality, she asked him, “What’s the matter?”

“I’m happy because you are marrying Daddy. Although I love Mommy, I know that she will never get back with Daddy anymore. I like you too, Miss Stella. That’s why I want you to be my new Mommy!” He took her hand and swung it affectionately.

“What a good boy!” She caressed his head.

She had visited them today to go over the details of the wedding with Matthew. She wanted to work on the guest list and ask his opinion on whether or not to invite Miles.

In her opinion, she wanted the wedding to be carried out as soon as possible, preferably without letting Miles know. Since Hollowcrest City was not a huge place and Miles was well-connected, he would hear about her ‘marriage’ to Matthew sooner or later without them having to notify him.

Finally, Stella and Matthew only invited a handful of family members, relatives, and close friends. After all, they were faking their marriage, and they were worried about the repercussions if the news traveled too fast in the city. Not only that, this would be the second marriage for both of them, so they thought that a simple ceremony would be more appropriate.

Since the only purpose of this wedding was to force Miles to give up on her, she thought it would be best not to tell him about it.

Although she was brutal and cold-blooded in cutting ties with Miles, part of her decision to not invite him was because she didn’t want him to witness her marriage to the man whom he held a grudge against.

During this time, Miles spent most of his time smoking and practicing calligraphy art in his office. He had started practicing calligraphy since young. Since it was an art that required great patience, which he lacked as a child, he gave up halfway and abandoned the hobby.

Once, his calligraphy teacher told him that he could one day become an outstanding calligrapher if he continued practicing.

However, he had never picked up the art after stopping it. Even though he still had outstanding handwriting, he did not continue practicing the art of calligraphy.

For some unknown reason, he recently picked up calligraphy again. He loved to practice while smoking.
