When Love Comes Late -
Chapter 1993
He spoke in a hushed tone.
“The only certainty I have now is that he is not your biological father.
As for the true events of the past, only Kristian knows the full story.
”
Matthew refrained from revealing further details.
The situation was exceedingly complex.
Kristian was Ethan, and Bella was Aarya.
Bella’s current plight was an elaborate deception orchestrated by Kristian.
He did not want Stella to worry until everything was clearer.
When Matthew mentioned that Kristian was not her biological father, Stella felt momentarily shocked but sighed with relief.
Her voice reflected her newfound ease.
“My intuition was correct.
”
Realizing the hidden danger Bella had faced all these years, Stella’s anger toward Kristian intensified.
“I won’t let Kristian get away with this! He must be held accountable for his actions!” she declared.
Matthew empathized with her feelings.
“You’ll
need to be patient for a bit longer.
Kristian believes you and Bella have had an accident.
I think he will make his next move soon.
”
Stella regained her composure and replied, “Alright, I’ll reassure my mother.
Neville is with us.
We’ll manage, but you must be cautious.
”
Kristian had been scheming for a long time.
He even went as far as to bribe the pilot to eliminate them; who knew what other extreme measures he might employ?
“I know,” Matthew replied with a reassuring smile.
Sensing the fatigue in his voice, Stella asked with concern, “How are you holding up? Are you exhausted?”
Matthew admitted, “I am a bit worn out after acting in front of Kristian the whole night, but hearing your voice lifts my spirits.
”
Stella felt a warm rush of affection but couldn’t shake her concern.
“If you’re tired, make sure to rest properly.
Don’t overextend yourself.
”
“Will do,” Matthew responded.
Meanwhile, Lindsay received a call from Joann at the office.
Since learning of Stella’s misfortune, Lindsay had been in high spirits.
Even Joann’s past blunders seemed more forgivable.
However, Lindsay concealed her delight.
Joann excitedly exclaimed, “Lindsay, did you hear? Stella’s plane crashed into the sea! Even fate wants her gone.
”
She couldn’t suppress her laughter.
If it hadn’t been for Stella, she and Bennett wouldn’t have ended up in such a predicament.
Now that Stella was presumed dead, Bennett no longer needed to take responsibility for what happened at the banquet and appease Matthew.
