Love at the Next Stop

Chapter 69

Chapter 69 He Fancied Miss Johansson

Before Stella could return her phone to her pocket, Miles took it from her. He retracted his hand from the wall while letting out a snort. Then, he was typing away on the phone, seemingly replying to a message. Although Stella tried to get her phone back, he didn’t allow her to do it. It wasn’t until a while later that he gave it back.

Upon going through her messages carefully, she noticed he had replied to Xavier. ‘I already have a boyfriend.’

To that, Xavier had asked, ‘Who is it?’

‘Miles Grant.’ Again, it was Miles who typed the reply.

“Hey!” Stella stomped her foot. He told Xavier that I already have a boyfriend without even asking why Xavier texted me! This is going to make me look self-conceited! Furiously, she asked him, “Why did you reply to messages that are meant for me in my stead?”

“Shouldn’t I be doing so?” Miles seemed to consider his actions fully justified as he usually did; his expression showed that he thought he did nothing wrong.

“I’m not talking to you anymore!” With that, Stella left. She could hear him chuckling in amusement when the door closed behind her.

On the other hand, she didn’t take the supplements meant for her grandmother, as it would be a hassle if her colleagues began gossiping about it if she brought them to her office.

Unlike Miles, who wished to make their relationship public, Stella preferred to keep a low profile. After all, she was but a normal employee, as well as a divorced woman without a prestigious familial background. The more unassuming she could be, the better it would be for someone of her status.

While recalling those moments of her sweet interaction with Miles, she seemed to have lost the motivation to work. Maybe this is just how a relationship is. Even when we bicker, everything we said to each other could be perceived as a flirtatious line. The light feeling that arose within her greatly improved her mood. She felt as if she was frolicking about in a lush field during springtime.

Stella would forgive him for gossiping. After reading that, Stella couldn’t help but glance at Kevin, as he was never one to send her messages on private matters. They would only communicate about work, such as the location, measurements, and various other specifics of a project. Judging from that, she knew that Kevin was also a clever person, as he had already picked up on who to side with, just like how he asked about Stella’s background back then
