When Love Comes Late by PASSION

Chapter 2371

Once inside, Stella headed upstairs to unwind with a bath.

Fresh from her bath, she discovered a message from Miley.

It included a photo of a romantic candlelit dinner, casting a warm glow over her evening.

Miley had also dined there that very evening.

She and Neville had seen Stellas and Matthews cars peel away one after the other, just missing the opportunity for a quick hello.

Their brief conversation was cut short as a wave of sleepiness enveloped Stella.

She had been unusually tired of late.

Just as she reached to turn off the light, the door to her bedroom creaked open. Matthew stepped in and sat beside her on the bed, his voice soft.
