When Love Comes Late by PASSION

Before she could, Matthew spoke again.

Fernando investigated the warehouse fire last night.

Unfortunately, there are no surveillance cameras in the area, so we still dont know if it was set by someone.

Stella blinked in surprise.

She had assumed his mention of the investigation the previous day was a passing comment.

Hearing an update so soon caught her off guard.

Though her heart warmed at his attentiveness, she kept her expression calm and neutral.

Got it.

Let me know if theres anything new, she said evenly.

She couldnt shake the suspicion that Lindsay might be involved-not just with the fire, but also with the chandelier incident at the launch event.

Yet, without concrete evidence, she decided not to voice her concerns to Matthew. As she exited the room, Matthew watched her leave, a faint frown creasing his brow, as though he were lost in thought.

Later, after they had both gotten ready, they shared breakfast in quiet companionship before heading to the hospital.
