Love at the Next Stop

Chapter 70

Chapter 70 Taking Shortcuts

“Zachariah misses you, so instead of going home, he insisted on coming to see you,” Matthew explained.

Stella’s house wasn’t that spacious to begin with, so it was crowded with so many people present at the same time. Meanwhile, there was only a pair of slippers at the foyer. Stella meant to hide it so that nobody could wear it, but Miles entered before she could to put on the slippers as if he were the master of the household. Hence, Stella could only glare at him in discontent, and Matthew could only wear his leather shoes inside the house.

After she poured some tea for both Miles and Matthew, she entered the kitchen to start cooking. Later, Miles came in to lend her a hand. He had taken his jacket off, so he only had his gray shirt on that showed off his tall stature and good looks. However, she couldn’t help but think that his appearance was a mismatch with the simple kitchen in her house. He seemed to fit in better with the top-tier kitchen in his mansion.

Instead of commenting on it, she began cutting the veggies. Having brought her own lunch to work everyday, she had already gotten used to cooking, so it no longer intimidated her. On the contrary, the only time she ever saw Miles cook was during New Year. She already had an impression that he was a good cook back then.

Indeed, judging from his performance now, he wasn’t merely a good cook, but a great cook instead. Although Stella was the one in charge in the beginning, Miles quickly took over her position due to his culinary skills, so Stella ended up being his assistant.

“Put on the apron for me!” Miles ordered while flipping the ingredients in the skillet. Even though Stella was annoyed by his attitude, she decided she should complain less since she was indeed the less capable one, just like when she was at work. Therefore, she stood behind him to help tie the apron on him. When he was flipping the food, his arm pressed on her supple bosom seemingly by accident. Despite being startled by it, Stella didn’t make a fuss out of it.

There were five dishes and a huge serving of soup for dinner, which made for an enjoyable meal. When they were dining, Zachariah’s cheerfulness livened up the mood, or at least it was so until he blurted out in all seriousness, “I’m not going home tonight. I want to sleep here with Stella.”

On the other hand, Stella was startled by the proposition. While she wasn’t averse to the idea, she never shared a bed with a boy Zachariah’s age, nor did she ever sleep with any other man but Miles. She was worried that Matthew might deem her as being difficult if she revealed her reasons, so she decided to keep it to herself while thinking that she should just take it as an opportunity to practice taking care of children.

However, Miles spoke before she could say anything. “But I will be sleeping with Stella tonight, so are you still going to stay?”

It was at that moment Stella noticed that Matthew’s hand paused for a second as if shocked by the revelation. Did he not know that Miles and I had— As soon as she thought of that, her face gradually turned a shade of red.

Meanwhile, Zachariah wasn’t sure how he should reply to that, as he didn’t understand why Miles would want to sleep with Stella. Tilting his head, he asked Matthew, “Dad, what is Miles’ relationship with Stella? Why do they want to sleep together?”

All this while, she never noticed anything out of the ordinary in Matthew’s treatment of her, and it was Miles who informed her of Matthew’s possible crush on her.
