When Love Comes Late
Chapter 345

Stella blurted subconsciously, “Why did you drink so much at noon?”

Jeremy chuckled and cast a brief glance at her.

His eyes appeared to mock her ignorance.

Stella also sensed that she might have spoken out of turn.

As she was about to bid goodbye and leave, she heard Jeremy speak.

“If I don’t take risks and fight for it, how can I secure a promising project? Do you think everyone is as fortunate as Matthew?

He has lived with his mother over a decade, and yet he can still return to the Clark family as an illegitimate child!” He gripped the glass tightly, punctuating his words in a sarcastic tone.

Stella appeared to have learned an important secret and was utterly shocked.

She lowered her head and averted her gaze from Jeremy.

Before joining the company, she had also heard some rumors about Matthew, but she didn’t anticipate that Jeremy would confirm these rumors.

Stella was speechless.

Fortunately, Jeremy didn’t say anything more.

He stood up and returned to his customary politeness.

“Thank you for helping me just now.

”

Stella replied with a smile, “You’re a very important senior executive in our company, and your image reflects our company’s values.

I wouldn’t want others to see you in this state and potentially create unnecessary issues.

”

Looking at her with a smile, Jeremy said, “Stella, I’ll give you another chance to reconsider what I mentioned last time.

”

Stella didn’t anticipate that he still hadn’t abandoned this idea.

“Thank you for your the appreciation, but my answer is still the same.

I just want to do well in my job.

I’m sorry that I can’t do anything else for you.

”

Stella refused without hesitation, yet remained polite.

Jeremy smiled.

He had known this would happen.

He sobered up a bit, smiled, and asked casually, “What’s so good about Matthew?”

Stella thought about it for a moment before saying, “Mr.

Clark is an excellent boss.

He has earned my loyalty.

”

Jeremy fell silent.

There was a subtle coldness in his gaze.

Stella nodded slightly.
