Chapter 1174
Stella dismissed all these troubling thoughts and exhaled
sharply.
She looked at the man on the couch with the smell of
alcohol, feeling a little helpless.
“Get up. We shall go back to the apartment first. I will
cook you something.”
Miguel’s eyes shone the moment he heard that. “Really?”
Even through the fog of drunkenness, he still retained
some of his consciousness. “You haven’t cooked for me
for a long time…”
He sounded a bit aggrieved.
He liked her cooking.
Although she wasn’t nearly as good as a professional
chef, her home–cooked concoctions had a unique taste, .
especially her noodles, and though he did not know what
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtrecipe she used, it was always different from the other
cooks.
Stella knew he was craving her food and said to him, still holding hands with Elias and Emma, “We will wait for you
downstairs. You come down quickly.”
She knew he needed time to sober up after all the drinking.
He closed his eyes to rest for a moment.
After that, he opened the window and let out a breath. ”
You guys go first. I will come down in a minute after a
smoke.”
She frowned immediately. “If you want to smoke, we will
leave without you, and you can call the driver to pick you
up yourself.”
“Man, you are so heartless.”
“I said it already. You reek of alcohol and tobacco.”
She disliked the smell of alcohol and tobacco very much
and did not want Elias and Emma to smell it.
After hearing that, Miguel could only extinguish his
cigarette. “Forget it. I shall come with you.”
When they were at the basement parking, she subconsciously glanced at the rearview mirror and was slightly
relieved to see no sign of Weston.
As soon as she turned her head, she saw Miguel, who had been staring at her since who knew when.
Seeing her turn around, he smiled and asked her, “Why am I feeling that you’re acting weird today?”
He reached out his hand to trace the outline of her face.
She immediately dodged it, frowned a little, and covered her nose. “You stink! Stay away from me.”
That was what she said, but in fact, she simply didn’t want to get too close to him.
Even with his mind muddled, Miguel could detect her detachment and avoidance.
She really seemed to treat him like a brother.
When he thought of this, he could taste the bitterness on his tongue.
Looking at Elias and Emma, who were already asleep in their child seats, he closed his eyes and put his arm over
them, blocking out all the light in front of him. It was then that his heart felt like sinking into the darkness.
“Don’t see me as a brother. See me as a man, can you?”
She frowned.
Jusst as she was about to say something, he interrupted her as if he knew what she was going to say. “Alright. Don’t
say it. I know you are going to reject me again…”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAfter a pause, he said with a playful tone, “I have no intention of confessing my love to you either, so it’s very
unreasonable for you to reject me.”
As long he was fast enough, she wouldn’t be able to reject
him.
His childish remark amused Stella a little.
After a while, she looked him in the eyes very seriously. I’m really sorry. It’s really impossible between the two of us.
As you know, I’ve always seen you as my brother. I really… You can’t force this kind of thing.”
He was still covering his eyes with his arm.
Therefore, Stella did not notice the fluttering of his
eyelashes and the redness of the corners of his eyes under
his arm.
After a while, he adjusted his tone and said with
amusement. “It is very difficult to separate love and
kinship. After a long time, love can also become kinship.
So, why can’t kinship turn into love?”
“There are so many friendships in this world that turn
into love,” he said gruffly. “As long as there is no blood
relation, I believe everything is possible. Besides…”
