When Love Comes Late by PASSION

Chapter 2228

Just then, they encountered a red light.

Stella braked hard, turned to face him, and asked with a complex expression, “Is that question really important at this moment? Aren’t you the one who wants a divorce? Would it matter to you who I leave with?”

Matthew’s gaze darkened as he looked at Stella, just about to speak when she cut him off, her voice laced with frustration.

“When you abandoned me on the dance floor, did you ever think about how everyone would see me?”

All evening, she had kept her anger in check, but now it surged forth, unrestrained.

She locked her eyes on his, her words sharp and deliberate.

“At the auction, when you walked to your seat with Lindsay in your arms, did you remember that we’re still legally bound in marriage? After the event, you left me again to take her away.

Did my feelings even cross your mind?”

Matthew’s lips parted slightly, and he reflexively muttered, “Her legs…”
