Chapter 137
When Love Comes Late
âArenât you taking them?â Matthew frowned.
Stella took them and said, âThank you.
â
âYouâre welcome Matthew paused for a second and added, âItâs nothing.
This is just to improve your work efficiency.
â
His actions seemed like a mere kind gesture.
But when he added those last words, he sounded as if he was trying to hide something.

Matthew sensed it too.
He looked away, put his hands into his pockets, and trotted into the building.
Stella was rooted to the spot.
She stared blankly at the Band-Aids in her hand.
Although Matthew tried to make it seem like it wasnât a big deal, it actually was.
She couldnât shake off the feeling that he was caring for her more than a boss should.
It appeared things would soon start spiraling out of her control.
To stop that from happening, she decided to keep a distance from Matthew when she wasnât working.
Stella was exhausted by the time she got home that night.
As she toed off her shoes, she saw the Band-Aids on her feet.
She couldnât wait to tell Miley all about her crappy day.
In the Living room, she met Miley seated on the sofa with her arms wrapped around herself while staring at the phone on the table.
Stella instantly got worried.
âWhatâs wrong? Why do you look so pale? Are you ill? Do you have work troubles?â
As she spoke, she reached out to touch Mileyâs forehead.
Her temperature was normal.

âIâm fine.
â Miley held her hand.
âI checked your design and made an appointment with a model whom I thought would be perfect for the job.
However, she told me today that someone already hired her for the competition at a high price.
I donât know what to do.
â
Miley looked both angry and frustrated.
Stella couldnât help frowning at this development.
Their success in the upcoming KlassicLuxe fashion design competition was dependent on a few things; the choice of a model was one of them.
They had to get one as soon as possible, but being anxious or complaining wasnât going to help.
Stella got her act together and comforted her friend.
âThe competition isnât happening tomorrow, is it? There are countless models.
Iâm sure we will be able to find the right one for the job soon.
