When Love Comes Late by PASSION

Chapter 2485

A shiver coursed through Matthew as he digested the unfolding scenario, the gravity of it anchoring his thoughts firmly in place.

His mind raced as he questioned the need for such extreme actions from Howard just to commission a dress design.

After being rejected by Stella at the hospital, they had cornered her at the hotel-this Level of involvement was alarmingly out of the ordinary.

Without wasting another moment, Matthew issued a command to Fernando.

Ramp up our efforts to find Stella.

Ill be joining you as soon as I can.

Regaining his bearings, WNatthew turned to Cordell and Neville, his expression clouded with bewilderment.

What brought you guys to Dorburn so suddenly? Neville scanned the room, noting the people here were all trusted ones, and decided to unveil the full story.

I got a tip that Declan left Lyllmann for Seamarsh and has now vanished from there.

Concerned he might stir trouble, I made my way here swiftly.

Matthews complexion blanched as the pieces fell into place; Declan was likely in Dorburn.

A heavy sense of dread settled over him.

He attempted to rise, intent on joining the search for Stella, but Cordell pressed him back down.

Neville chimed in, Matthew, youre barely on your feet. Look after yourself first.
