When Love Comes Late by PASSION

Chapter 2018

The police arrived shortly and immediately joined the search and rescue efforts.

Three hours felt like an eternity as Stella waited.

Time seemed to stretch until she finally received the news she had been desperately hoping for: Bella had been found.

Without hesitation, she ran toward the scene.

Bella and Kristian were rescued together, but they were both in critical condition.

Bella had bruises scattered across her body, with streaks of blood staining her forehead, arms, and knees.

Kristian’s condition was even more severe; he was drenched in blood from head to toe, his face obscured and unrecognizable due to the extensive injuries.

They needed to get to the hospital as quickly as possible to fully assess their injuries.

The two were carefully placed into the ambulance, and the vehicle sped away, its siren piercing the air.

Matthew stayed close by Stella’s side, his concern evident as they followed the ambulance.

When they arrived at the hospital, the ambulance doors swung open, and a doctor emerged.
