âYou go ahead.

Iâve got work to attend to.

Turning, she began to move to the living room.

Sensing that Stella was off-kilter, Miley questioned, âIs something bothering you? Are you worn out from work? Or is something else the matter?â

Her tone was tinged with concern and anxiety.

âWorking at a large corporation is just draining.

There are some issues in your company, and I thought Iâd resign and help you out.

Her voice lacked conviction.

Always one to take things at face value, Miley bought the explanation.

She was so moved that she hugged Stella.
