When Love Comes Late
Chapter 1245

Once the doctor left, Matthew inquired from the doorway, “Should we inform Elizabeth?”

Bella, still weak, shook her head.

“No, it’s not necessary.

The doctor said we can leave after the infusion.

”

Matthew didn’t press further.

He stood quietly by her bed, watching the infusion bottle.

Bella observed him for a moment and then expressed her gratitude.

“Thank you.

”

“It’s nothing,” Matthew replied courteously.

Pleased with his reaction, Bella felt inclined to engage further.

“You’ve been looking for me.

Why? You saved me, so I’ll set aside my reservations for now.

What did you want to talk about?”

After a brief pause, Matthew said carefully, “I do have something to confirm with you.

If it’s too sudden, please forgive me.

”

Bella nodded for him to continue.

Matthew asked, “Have you ever lived in Seamarsh? Were you ever married before you met your current husband?”

Bella, perhaps influenced by Matthew’s prior assistance, wasn’t put off by his blunt questions.

She shook her head.

“I’ve never been to Seamarsh before.

I’d never been married before meeting my current husband, and I only have a daughter.

Matthew, observing Bella’s confident demeanor, began to doubt his own investigation.

“Why do you ask?” Bella inquired, her curiosity evident.

Snapped back to the moment, Matthew pondered for a moment.

“Could you look at a photo of my wife?”

He wasn’t ready to abandon his lead just yet.

Bella found the request odd, even inappropriate, but considering his earlier help, she indulged him.

“Why do you want me to see your wife’s photo?”

Matthew cleared his throat.

“It’s just to show you how much my wife and I love each other.

I assure you, I have no intentions towards Elizabeth.

”

Though skeptical, Bella agreed.

As Matthew reached for his phone to replace Stella’s photo, the ward door burst open.

Elizabeth rushed in, concern written all over her face.

“Mom!”

She checked Bella over, planting a ki*s on her cheek.

“Where did you get hurt?”
