When Love Comes Late -
Chapter 1140
Concerned, she steadied him and asked, “Are you alright? Did you get hurt?”
“I’m okay.
” Matthew forced a smile.
“The main thing is that you’re safe.
”
But as Stella studied his face, she saw his lips were colorless and felt his hands growing colder.
She helped Matthew stand and called out to Fernando, who was at the wheel.
“Fernando, we need to get Matthew to the hospital.
Hurry!”
Upon hearing Stella’s urgent plea, Fernando swiftly ignited the engine, hurtling towards the hospital with Matthew in tow.
In transit, Matthew’s nerves eased slightly, prompting a cough that expelled blood from his mouth.
Terrified inside, Stella understood the need to maintain composure during that critical moment.
She retrieved a tissue from her bag, wiping blood from Matthew’s mouth while projecting a facade of calmness.
“We’ll reach the hospital soon.
Don’t close your eyes now.
”
Glimpsing the situation through the rearview mirror, Fernando pressed harder on the accelerator.
Matthew felt the uncontrollable tremor in Stella’s voice and clenched his jaw.
Though terribly weak, he insisted on speaking.
“Stella, don’t be afraid.
I’ll be fine as long as you’re alright.
”
Stella’s hands still clung to his body, knuckles turning white.
Yet, she feigned calmness.
“I understand.
Save your strength.
It’s all over, and you’ll be okay once we reach the hospital.
”
Then, she turned to Fernando and urged, “Fernando, step on it!”
Fernando contemplated speeding up but abruptly recalled Matthew’s directive never to drive fast when Stella was in the car.
Torn between Matthew’s precarious situation and the weight of his instructions, Fernando grappled with a dilemma.

Sensing Fernando’s internal struggle, Stella comprehended the source of his conflict.
Softly, she assured him, “I’m okay.
Just drive faster.
”
“Alright,” Fernando responded and sped towards the hospital with urgency.
Anxiety gripped him.
Having been by Matthew’s side since his return to the Clark family, Fernando’s relationship with him surpassed the bounds of mere superior and subordinate; they were friends who shared candid conversations during leisure moments.
Upon learning of Stella’s secret marriage to Matthew, Fernando was taken aback but chose to remain silent.
After all, he held great respect for Stella’s professional dedication during their time working together.
However, he couldn’t help but feel that Matthew had gone to extraordinary lengths for Stella during their reconciliation, almost to the point of losing himself.
