When Love Comes Late
Chapter 655

“I have a favor to ask,” Matthew proceeded cautiously.

“Could you keep your phone line open when you two are talking, so I can listen in?”

Caught in a moral quandary, Miley hesitated.

“I just want to know the real reason Stella wants to leave her job.

I assure you it won’t put you in an awkward position.

” Matthew’s voice rang out, tinged with an unusual sincerity.

Feeling cornered, Miley finally gave in.

“I’ll call you when we arrive at the bar.

Matthew exhaled deeply, replying, “Thank you.

After disconnecting the call, Miley donned a new outfit and descended the stairs, where Stella was already waiting.

En route to the bar, Miley recounted both amusing and vexing episodes she had faced at work, seeking solace in sharing them with Stella.

Yet Stella was lethargic, offering only sporadic affirmations.

Her mind had been elsewhere all day.

Her phone was cluttered with congratulatory texts from her colleagues at Prosperity Group and questions about her unexplained absence.

She had yet to reply to any of them.

She didn’t know what to say, and more importantly, she felt uncertain about her future.

Stella sighed.

But she reconciled that since she had the audacity to resign, she was committed to that decision.

The duo reached their destination in under thirty minutes, which was located not too far from Prosper Bay.

Miley parked and led Stella into the establishment.

Linking arms with Stella, she exclaimed, “The bartender here is top— notch in the city.

Their c@@ktails are a must-try.

Stella nodded.

They nestled into a secluded booth at the bar.

Eagerly, Miley said, “Let me get us special c@@ktails from the bar.

Stay put.

Before Stella could respond, Miley was already off her seat.

Approaching the bartender, Miley placed her order and surveyed the venue cautiously.

She then dialed Matthew.

The call was answered almost immediately, as if Matthew had been waiting for her.
