When Love Comes Late
Chapter 1359

After a lengthy drive, Galen parked the car and turned to Elizabeth, his gaze penetrating.

“There’s nobody else here.

Can you finally tell me what truly happened?”

Elizabeth’s demeanor reverted to nonchalance.

She shrugged.

“Stella’s doomed this time.

”

Her casual remark drew a furrowed brow from Galen.

His tone grave, he implored, “Tell me about tonight.

”

Elizabeth cast a casual glance his way before speaking.

“I anticipated Leo’s arrival, so I seized the opportunity to manipulate him one final time.

When I saw him, I gave him my address.

Not having a clue when he’d show, I had guards on standby.

Whatever went down tonight, well, he brought it on himself.

”

Galen’s concern grew.

“It’s too risky.

”

With a look of utter disdain, Elizabeth remarked bluntly, “I’ve known forever that Leo’s a useless waste of breath.

Wouldn’t shed a tear if he were gone, honestly.

”

At Prosper Bay, Stella tossed and turned in her sleep, her brow creased in distress.

With clenched fists, she nervously exclaimed, “No, no…”

Within the confines of her dream, she found herself in the film crew’s dressing room.

With a malicious glint in his eyes, Leo Lunged at her.

“Stella, you can’t escape.

Once I have you, Matthew will abandon you!”

“No, no…” Stella’s desperate cries echoed.

Startled by her distress, Matthew awoke.

Bathed in the soft glow of a bedside lamp, he saw her drenched in sweat, a mask of pain on her face.

Quickly rising, he reached for tissues, tenderly wiping away the sweat on her forehead.

Gently holding her hand, he reassured her, “It’s alright.

It’s all over.

”

Under his soothing touch, Stella gradually found solace, slipping back into a peaceful slumber.

Watching her with a touch of sadness, Matthew surmised that the video had deeply affected her.

Leo was an unforgivable transgressor and should rot in hell.

The memory of Leo caused Matthew’s jaw to clench with sudden intensity, casting a shadow of gloom and fierce determination over his features.

Suddenly, his phone buzzed, breaking the somber silence of the room.

Mindful of not disturbing Stella’s slumber, he hastily answered the vibrating phone.

It was a call from Fernando.

Furrowing his brow, Matthew glanced at the peacefully sleeping woman before stepping into the study.

With a cold edge to his voice, he inquired, “What’s the matter?”

“Mr.

Clark, there’s been an incident.

” Fernando spoke in an anxious tone.

“Last night, Leo visited Elizabeth’s villa.

Just now, he was rushed to the hospital for emergency treatment.

His condition is uncertain, and no one knows if he’s alive or not.

”

Matthew’s frown deepened as he questioned, “What has Elizabeth done?”

“She fired at Leo from close range.

” Fernando relayed the distressing news to Matthew.

“She’s called the police.
