When Love Comes Late

Matthew was busy signing a document.

At her voice, he looked up and asked, “What’s up?”

Lindsay appeared embarrassed, opening and closing her mouth several times without speaking.

Noticing her hesitation, Matthew’s brows furrowed, and he asked impatiently, “What is it?”

After a long pause, she said, “I’m sorry… Robin messed up.

It was my fault for not keeping a closer eye on him.

”

Matthew’s expression turned serious.

He didn’t remember much about Robin, only recalling that he had been troublesome since his youth.

Anxious, Matthew asked, “What did he do?”

“He almost harmed Stella…”

As Lindsay spoke, she watched Matthew’s face intently.

Upon hearing her, Matthew clenched his pen tighter, though his face remained unreadable.

Lindsay added, “I intended for him to apologize to Stella, but a man took her away… It’s getting late.

We should bring Stella back soon.

We don’t want any surprises, right?”

Matthew’s face remained unchanged.

He responded in a flat tone, “Is that so?”

His face showed no signs of anxiety or concern.

Seeing this, Lindsay felt a surge of relief, yet she feigned a troubled and guilty demeanor.

In a gentle voice, she explained, “It’s ultimately Robin’s fault, and I’ve already reprimanded him severely, but…”

Then, she added quickly, “He mentioned that when Stella was taken away, she had been drinking quite a bit.

The man who took her was very forceful.

I’m really worried something terrible might happen.

I’ve asked Robin to come pick me up.

Let’s go together and bring Stella back.

”

“Where is she?” Matthew inquired, his voice cold and deep.

Lindsay immediately gave him the location.

She regretted that Stella hadn’t ended up with Jack, but was somewhat relieved that she had been taken by another man.

She thought as long as she could sow some seeds of misunderstanding between Matthew and Stella, the means were not important.

Matthew’s demeanor was still unemotional.

He stood up and began wheeling her out.

Robin was already waiting by the door.NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.

He looked slightly apprehensive at the sight of Matthew emerging.

However, remembering that Matthew had lost part of his memories and was indebted to Lindsay, Robin straightened up confidently.

“I’ll drive you,” Robin said quickly.

Lindsay nodded and settled into the back seat with Matthew.
