Chapter 254

“Hello, my name is Stella Anderson.

”

Jeremy looked at his watch and said, “It’s almost work time.

Let’s go upstairs together.

0h, before I forget.

I sincerely apologize for my recklessness earlier.

”

With that, Jeremy took her hand and walked to the building.

Stella made no attempt to struggle.

Her sprained ankle was already aching and she could really use some help.

Besides, she felt a little more comfortable with Jeremy since he was her boss’s cousin.

Matthew, on the other hand, frowned as he watched them walking away together.

Seeing as Jeremy met Stella on his first day here, was it a mere coincidence or did he plan this?

Did he know who Stella really was?

Disturbed by this thought, Matthew rushed into the building and entered the elevator seconds after they got in.

“Why are you here? Shouldn’t you be using the elevator that’s exclusively for you?” asked Jeremy, looking at his cousin with his eyes squinted.

Matthew turned a deaf ear to that and pressed the top floor button.

Jeremy chuckled and teased, “I’m not a monster.

So, don’t be scared that I would hurt your employee.

He then looked at Stella and asked in a gentle voice, “Which floor?”

Stella told him.

After he hit the right button, the elevator doors closed slowly.

Matthew was standing in front of the other two who were still side by side.

“Don’t bother following us, Matthew.

I’ll make sure Stella gets to her desk safely before coming up to your office.

” Jeremy broke the silence seconds later.

“Suit yourself.

” Matthew sounded like he didn’t give a damn.

Jeremy shrugged as if his cousin’s icy attitude wasn’t a new thing for him.

The elevator became so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.

The temperature seemed to drop.

Stella’s lips were pursed as she alternated her gaze between the two cousins.

Although she knew that Matthew was a naturally cold man, she expected him to be a little more friendly to Jeremy.

She couldn’t help but sense that he was even colder to his cousin than he was to other people.

Did they have a bad relationship?

How could that be? Jeremy seemed like a nice person, so it should be easy to get along with him.
