When Love Comes Late by PASSION

Chapter 2496

With that, he turned to his men and commanded, Bring that woman here.

Stellas curiosity was piqued.

As she wondered who he was referring to, her question was soon answered when Lindsay was escorted into the room.

The sight before Stella left her even more stunned.

Lindsay was no longer confined to a wheelchair.

She stood tall and steady on her feet, a clear indication that she could now walk perfectly well.

But despite her regained ability to stand, Lindsay looked utterly defeated.

Her complexion was ghostly pale, and her eyes were filled with fear and despair.

The moment Lindsay spotted Matthew, she cried out desperately as though he were her final lifeline, her voice trembling with desperation.

Matthew, please save me! I Love you! I love you more than Stella ever could! I was raised by Lucia! If anything happens to me, she wont be able to bear it! Declan turned to Stella with a smug grin.

Well, Stella, do you like my gift? Its not just a token to commemorate our meeting.

Its also my way of thanking you for keeping me company in the castle these past few days.

With a smirk, he asked, Are you curious how Lindsay is able to stand now? Perhaps you should ask your husband.

After all, she was taken directly from his care.

Though taken aback, Stella quickly regained her composure. Her tone remained calm:as she replied, Theres no need to ask.
