When Love Comes Late -
Chapter 774
“That’s good.
” After getting her answer, Ellie hung up the phone with satisfaction.
Just as Miley was about to exhale in relief, a tentative voice behind her queried, “Since when have you had such a good relationship with Neville?”
Miley felt a jolt of surprise.
Twisting around, she found Stella eyeing her with curiosity.
In a fluster, she retorted, “Neville and I are strictly professional associates.
Why would you think we’re anything more?”
Skepticism colored Stella’s expression.
“You did say you were planning to maintain a relationship with Neville.
”
“That was just a ruse for my mother,” Miley clarified, guiding Stella to the sofa.
Settling into the cushions, Stella wasted no time.
“So how does your mom even know him?”
Leaning back into the sofa, Miley exhaled deeply.
“My parents are trying to set us up,” she divulged, recalling her encounter with Neville that evening.
“What a coincidence!” Stella couldn’t hold back her astonishment.
“It’s almost as if fate is intertwining your paths.
You coincidentally met him before, and now your parents are playing matchmaker.
Maybe you should give some serious thought to being with him.
”
“Absolutely not,” Miley said, her tone unequivocal.

“The whole idea irks me.
”
“Just suggesting you mull it over.
After all, you’re both single and seemingly compatible in many ways,” Stella said.
“We’ll talk about this some other time.
” Shaking her head dismissively, Miley redirected the conversation.
“What have you been up to today?”
“My studio lease is finalized,” Stella reported candidly.
“After a good clean-up in the next couple of days, I can move in.
I’m brainstorming ways to make it successful.
”
Even though Stella had successfully completed multiple projects at Prosperity Group and gained some notoriety, venturing out to start her own business still filled her with a measure of apprehension.
Yet, she knew she had to take the plunge if she ever wanted to make significant strides forward.
As Stella spoke, her eyes gleamed with anticipation.
