When Love Comes Late by PASSION

Chapter 2346

Fernando leaned forward, musing aloud, Mr.

Clark, could this drama be a clever ruse orchestrated by the Wheeler family? Matthew shook his head firmly.

The Wheelers dont have the pull to orchestrate a show like this with police cooperation.

That said, youd still be wise to dig into their recent contacts-maybe theres a clue waiting to be uncovered.

Meanwhile, Stella turned to Dexter with a decisive air.

Her thoughts lingered on her conversation with Matthew from the previous night.

Their exchange had left a bitter taste-sharp words and unresolved tension-but despite that, she couldnt entirely dismiss the faith she had in him.

If Matthew had indeed freed Robin and lied to her face, she wouldnt hesitate to sever their bond once and for all.

Not long after, Dexter approached Stella with fresh intel.
