When Love Comes Late -
Chapter 1199
In that moment, Neville’s gaze shifted abruptly, his expression transforming from surprise to a smile as he acknowledged Stella with a nod.
Feeling a wave of repulsion, Stella turned away, refusing to grant him another glance.
The hall’s ambiance changed as the lights dimmed, heralding Luther’s entrance onto the stage, microphone in hand.
Beside Stella, Matthew gently grasped her hand, leaning in to whisper, “Luther has a special surprise guest tonight.
”
Though Luther had hinted at this during filming, he’d carefully left the guest’s identity a mystery.
Stella racked her brains but couldn’t deduce who it might be.
Yet, from Matthew’s tone, it was clear he was privy to the secret.
Curiously, she whispered back, “Who could it be?”
Matthew’s Lips curved into a knowing smile.
“You’ll see soon enough.
”
Despite Stella’s persistent queries, Matthew maintained a playful silence, compelling her to focus her attention back to the stage.
Engaging the audience with tales of the film’s creation and humorous anecdotes, Luther skillfully steered the conversation towards the anticipated guest.
“Ladies and gentlemen, allow me to introduce a star of the screen, Elizabeth Wallace.
”
The crowd’s anticipation peaked as Elizabeth gracefully ascended the stage, her gown flowing behind her.

As the spotlight illuminated her, Matthew’s expression unexpectedly stiffened.
His initial plan, unknown to Stella, was to have Luther invite Bella, hoping to facilitate a meeting between her and Stella.
Elizabeth’s unexpected presence threw a wrench into his plans.
Why did Elizabeth suddenly come?
Observing the enigmatic woman now commanding the stage, Stella felt a tinge of confusion.
Turning to Matthew, she inquired, “Is she the guest you hinted at?”

Matthew opened his mouth to respond, but Elizabeth preemptively addressed the audience.
“I’m deeply honored to be here tonight, thanks to Luther.
It’s a pleasure to meet all of you.
” Her voice was a gentle melody.
Her gaze meandered across the room, finally resting on Matthew with a radiant smile.
“And a special thanks to Mr.
Clark.
”
The audience’s attention snapped to Matthew, Stella’s included, her look one of growing suspicion.
Matthew, however, remained stoically indifferent.
A murmur swept through the crowd, one voice cutting through with a sharp observation.
“Doesn’t Elizabeth bear a striking resemblance to Mr.
Clark’s wife.
”
The suggestion rippled through the audience, with many agreeing.
“Absolutely, particularly around the eyebrows.
”
Speculations about their connection started to arise.
“Could be plastic surgery, or perhaps there’s a deeper bond.
Given Elizabeth’s earlier remarks, it seems she’s quite familiar with Mr.
Clark.
”
“But they only resemble each other, and Mrs.
Clark’s maiden name differs,” someone countered.
