You’ll Fall For Me, Today Or Tomorrow Chapter 468

Chapter 468 A Certain Someone

Stella wasn’t serious when she said she would resign. After all, it was a job with great remuneration packages and career prospects.

She would have to seek alternatives if she were to resign from her current job.

As soon as she marched out of Tyson Corporation, she drove all the way to the hospital to meet Burnham.

Burnham dismissed his patient and tended to the woman with a pale and haggard look the moment she showed up.

“What’s wrong, Stella? Has Damian picked on you again?”

Stella wrapped her arms around Burnham and started wailing hysterically in front of him. As a result, he tapped on her shoulder to console the seemingly heartbroken woman.

His mind was all over the place as he couldn’t stand others crying in front of him, let alone such a gorgeous woman.

Seconds after Stella regained her composure, he asked, “Why don’t you calm down and tell me what happened? I’ll try my best to help you!”

Stella shook her head in an aggrieved manner and said, “Burnham, is it my fault o have fallen for Damian? Why is he trying to send me elsewhere when I have surrendered? He has gone to great lengths just to ensure I won’t set foot in D City in the future!”

Burnham started burning with rage when he found out the truth. He stammered, “W-What? Are you serious? He’s such a—”

The frustrated Burnham was about to make a call to confront Damian, but the weeping Stella stopped him in the nick of time.

“Burnham, just forget about it! I need to hand over everything to my colleague within a month! If I refuse to adhere to the instructions, I’ll have to leave my current job!”

“No! It took you years to climb your way up the corporate ladder! I can’t possibly-”

Smirking, Stella remarked, “I’ve already made up my mind to tender resignation since I have no intention to leave D City. I’m not ready to leave him just yet. He doesn’t care about me, but he can’t stop me from loving him. Burnham, can you do me a favor and stop teasing me if things turn out unfavorable for me later?”

“I’m pretty sure you’re going to get yourself another job in no time since you’re such amazing credentials!”

“Well, I guess I need to consider myself lucky since I don’t have to rely on others for a living unlike some unless women.”

Burnham thought of Wrenna due to Stella’s sarcastic remark. He shook his head and announced, “To be honest, Wrenna isn’t even a match for you. If I were Damian, there’s no way I’m falling for such a useless woman.”

“Well, she’s a member of the Jackson family.”

“Shall we forget about them and head out for a change of mood? Why don’t you join my friends and me for a cocktail party in the evening? They might be able to do you a favor if you’re seeking a career change.”

“N-No, I—”

“Just come along and make a few friends along the way!”

Stella pretended as if she was against the idea, but Burnham brought her away with him.

“Dr. Stewart, there are another few patients…”

“Tell them to return tomorrow.”

Stella was the only one Burnham cared about since she was around.

The duo showed up in their best outfits for the cocktail party in the evening knowing that the guests were members of the upper echelon of D City. As a close acquaintance of Damian and the successor of the renowned Stewart family, Burnham was considered a member of the upper echelon as well.

Stella was highly regarded by the guests since she was still the representative of a multinational corporation in D City. She had proven herself worthy through her past achievements.

By the end of the party, she had received countless invitations from the guests to join their corporations in the future.

Those might be pleasantries, but she thought it wasn’t a bad idea to have several alternatives.

Burnham sent Stella home after the party. As a staff of the company, she was allowed to stay at a lavish apartment in a high-end residential area.

Stella knew she would’ve to move out of the apartment the moment she tendered her resignation.

Sitting next to Burnham, she started laughing and remarked while staring at the apartment, “I have been working for such a long time, but I still can’t afford to own a house! As soon as I tender my resignation, I’ll have to move out again!”

“Is that a big deal? You’re always welcome at my place! Just move in if you feel like it!”

“Nah, at the very least, I can still afford to pay my rent! Care to join me for a glass of drink upstairs?” Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.

Burnham’s eyes widened in disbelief the moment he heard Stella’s suggestion. Stella responded in a similar manner the moment she returned to her senses and noticed she had brought up an absurd suggestion.

She explained, “I’m so sorry if it sounds weird! I’m just trying to return the favor you have done me today!”

“It’s fine! Go ahead and call it a day since it’s getting late! Just take it easy and tender resignation if you feel like it! It’s not like your life depends on it!”

“I’ll keep that in mind. Thank you so much for your time, Burnham.”

Stella got out of the car and returned to her apartment. Slouching against the couch, she started going through the name cards she had acquired.

I have finally achieved my goals, but I’m not going to stop just yet! I have faith in myself and know that I deserve better!

Instead of leaving, Burnham took a slow drag from his cigarette and spent a few minutes in quietness. He finally departed once he returned to his senses.

Stella might have to tender resignation from her current position, but it had nothing to do with her career as a lecturer.

Wrenna carried herself quite well whenever she showed up for Stella’s lecture. Therefore, Stella was impressed.

Nonetheless, she was well aware Wrenna was the reason her life was a complete mess. Once again, she got in Wrenna’s way at the end of the lecture.

“Congratulations, Wrenna. You have successfully defeated me. I’ll tender my resignation and stop showing up in front of Damian in the future.”

Wrenna was taken aback by the things Stella had brought up. She answered with a frown, “It has nothing to do with me since I’m the one and only Mrs. Tyson, Ms. Lane. Are you trying to provoke me and stir things up again?”

Stella went after Wrenna the moment Wrenna inched away from her. She asked, “Why is he trying to get rid of me if he doesn’t have a thing for me? Don’t you think he’s the suspicious one?”

Wrenna brought herself to a halt and remarked in a callous tone, “I have asked him to do me a favor and send you elsewhere since I can’t stand you anywhere near him. Am I supposed to share this with you as well?”

“Y-You’re such a shameless woman, Wrenna!”

“I’m just learning from the best! Why don’t you do us a favor and stop getting in our way?”

“You’re the one who’s getting in our way! Have you asked Damian if he loves you or not? If he confesses the sort of affection he has for me to you in front of me, I’ll leave you alone. Do you dare to take up the challenge?”

Wrenna’s face turned pale and haggard when she heard Stella’s seemingly convincing statements. Instead of playing along with Stella, Wrenna gasped out her reply, “Our relationship has nothing to do with you! What makes you think you’re in a position to question us, Stella?”

Wrenna finally marched away from Stella and dismissed Stella’s provocative statements once she made herself clear.

It was the first time in a few weeks she wasn’t in the mood to study. To be precise, she couldn’t focus on the things she had on doing anything.

She made her way to Hailey’s studio, but Hailey had no time to spare her after making a name out of herself quite some time ago.

Thus, Wrenna made her way elsewhere after dropping by Hailey’s studio for a short while since Hailey was occupied with all sorts of things along with her peers from the industry.

Wrenna had no intention to return home or join her friends at the dormitory. She was afraid of getting on her friends’ nerves since she had shared her concerns with them more than once.

She was afraid they would get sick of her and her issues in life. After all, she wasn’t supposed to show her dirty laundry in front of others.

Smiling as she continued wandering on the streets, she thought it wouldn’t be wise to make her way home as well.

In the end, she marched into the café opposite Tyson Corporation and started staring at the bustling crowd on the streets.

It was about time to get off work, but Damian was nowhere to be seen when most of the staff had strode out of the company.

She spent a few hours in the café until it was late evening. It was then Damian marched out of the company alongside Johannes and a few of their well-dressed colleagues.

Shortly after Damian departed, Wrenna brought herself out of the café and headed over to a nearby restaurant for dinner.

The waiter brought her a teddy bear and placed it opposite her to keep her company throughout the meal since she was there without any companion.

Wrenna had a great time savoring her meal with the teddy bear and bought the teddy bear by the end of her meal.

It had been a long time since she last watched a movie in the cinema. Thus, she brought the teddy bear to the cinema and purchased two tickets for a comedy.

To be precise, it had been a long time since she last indulged herself in leisure activities of sorts since Damian wasn’t around to keep her company due to the differences in their preferences.

On top of that, Damian had a lot of things on his schedule. It was impossible for him to enjoy the movie without getting interrupted by calls from his subordinates.

By the time she marched out of the cinema, it was already ten o’clock in the evening. She hailed a cab and made her way to the karaoke with the teddy bear.

The moment she reached the karaoke, she received a call from Damian, asking if she was still around the campus.

After spending most of her time at the library over the past few weeks, Damian thought Wrenna was in the middle of another hardcore revision session.

Wrenna made up something and lied, “I won’t be home tonight. I’ll be spending a night at the dormitory instead.”

Once she hung up the call, she started singing out loud to her heart’s content.
