You’ll Fall for Me, Today or Tomorrow novel Chapter 468

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?”

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!”
