Chapter 326
When Love Comes Late
It was only at that moment that he detected something amiss.
Stella had intentionally penned the incorrect word on the contract.
With a surge of anger, Jeremy angrily tossed the document aside.
He slammed his palm onto the table, his expression darkening.
âStella!â
This woman had the audacity to play tricks right in front of him!
As he gazed at the contract lying on the floor, Jeremy suddenly burst into laughter.
Sooner or later, heâd gather evidence against these two individuals and tarnish Matthewâs reputation.
Jeremy clenched his fists, grinding his teeth in determination.
After finishing her work for the day, Stella exited the offices of Prosperity Group and spotted Mileyâs extravagant car parked by the companyâs gate.
She stood there, taken aback, before making her way over to Miley.
âWhy did you come here?â
âIâve been concerned about you since I heard what you mentioned yesterday.
Iâll give you rides to and from work for a while,â Miley explained before inviting Stella into the car.
With a smile, Stella opened the car door and secured her seatbelt.
âDonât worry, I can manage on my own.
You donât have to come to pick me up tomorrow.

âActually, thereâs another reason for my visit today.

Stella raised an eyebrow.

âWhat is it?â
âWell, thereâs a small gathering in the evening.
Word has it that the judges of the KlassicLuxe brand will be attending,â Miley started the engine and shot her a look.
âThe next phase of the competition is right around the corner, so itâs beneficial to get to know the judges.
â
When she heard about the prospect of socializing, Stella immediately declined.
âWeâre contestants.
If we get acquainted with the judges, what if others suspect us of having ulterior motives?â
âI will go talk with them.
You can just stay aside.
â After those words, Miley heaved a sigh and added with a touch of pleading, âIf I happen to have a few drinks, can I count on you to look out for me?â
Stella pondered briefly before nodding in agreement.
Approximately thirty minutes later, their car found a spot at the luxurious Pearl Hotel, a well-worn establishment in Seamarsh.
