Mr. Ford Is Jealous novel Chapter 65

Chapter 65

At the same time, Stella thought the conversation between the two men was fascinating and amusing, so she couldn’t help but laugh. There really was nothing more to it.

But when the man in front of her caught sight of her joyous chuckles, he lost a little self control and just stared at her. Even Roger, who was beside him, noticed it.

“Professor Hall,” he said with a frown. “Why are you staring at my sister?”

The man came back to his senses, then looked at Stella apologetically.

“I’m sorry,” he told her.

Stella’s smile vanished. She glared at her brother before snapping, “Don’t be rude!”

Stella then sat straight and turned to the man in front of her.

“Thank you for watching out for us, Professor Hall,” she said. “Please, allow me to settle the bill for this meal.”

She had planned to go for a walk with her brother, but they unexpectedly bumped into Roger’s college professor. Roger had taken a few semesters off due to his illness, and it was Justin Hall that helped catch up to the course, along with supporting him in other ways. Because of this, Stella had gotten to know him quite well. He left a good impression on her. She never expected Roger to get as much assistance and support as he did in high school. Still, surprisingly, Justin Hall had been very attentive and helpful, asking her if Roger encountered problems in his studies or personal life. Naturally, this had earned Justin Hall considerable respect from Stella. But that little incident just now made Stella feel a little wary. She now suspected if Justin indeed had other intentions.

“No,” Justin refused with a smile, showing no sign of embarrassment. “I’m your brother’s professor! How can I let my own student pay for my meal? I insist on paying.”

“But it’s just a simple meal,” Stella interrupted.
