When Love Comes Late
Chapter 1919

Stella was stunned for a moment.

“Maybe it fell by accident.

You’re overthinking it,” she said.

Miley was adamant.

“I think she did it on purpose.

Either she’s challenging you, or she’s testing you.

If you replace it and show that you don’t care, she might leave something even more personal in the living room next time.

”

Stella fell silent, contemplating Miley’s words.

“Why don’t you think about it again? Even if she left the Lipstick in the Living room, why was it on the sofa and not on the floor or somewhere else?” Miley pressed on, her tone serious.

“Take my words seriously.

”

Stella didn’t respond.

Miley wasn’t sure if Stella was listening, but she continued, “And have you considered this? Lindsay is an adult woman.

If you go on a business trip or back to Bysea, she’ll be alone in the house with Matthew.

Who knows what could happen? They’re not even related by blood.

”

Stella felt a wave of discomfort wash over her.

She wanted to believe Lindsay wasn’t capable of such deceit

, but Miley’s words made her uneasy.

On one hand, she thought Miley might be overthinking it, but on the other hand, she couldn’t shake that unsettling feeling.

Miley persisted, “Maybe I’m too suspicious, but where there’s smoke, there’s fire.

The last scandal didn’t come out of nowhere.

If you think this woman has no intentions toward your husband, I don’t believe it.

”

Stella lowered her head, lost in thought.

Miley added, “I sincerely advise you to be more vigilant.

It’s not wrong to be cautious.

If something were to happen, it would be too late to regret.

”

Miley’s serious tone left Stella deep in contemplation.

As they were talking, Lindsay entered the living room.

She had been at the Clark family residence with Lucia the previous night and was just returning.

Noticing another person with Stella, Lindsay asked in surprise, “Stella, is she your friend?”

Stella snapped out of her thoughts and introduced them.

“Yes, this is my best friend, Miley Cullen.

”

She then introduced Lindsay to Miley.

“Don’t you need to go to work today?” Stella asked Lindsay.

Lindsay smiled.

“I took a leave from Matthew.

I’m planning to move out.

”

Stella and Miley appeared uncomfortable.

Stella regained her composure first.

“You seem comfortable here.

What’s making you want to move all of a sudden?”
