When Love Comes Late -
Chapter 2003
After concluding her conversation with Matthew, Stella turned around and found Neville standing there.
Perhaps due to their long history together, Neville and Miley began to resemble each other more and more, even mirroring each other’s expressions of gossip perfectly.
Stella’s face flushed with embarrassment.
Nevertheless, Neville stood there, his usual smile in place as he joked, “Were you on the phone with Matthew?”
Stella nodded as a blush painted her cheeks.
Neville shrugged.
“I knew it.
Gosh, he’s too needy.
I wonder what made you fall in love with him.
”
“He’s fine.
” Stella smiled even though his remark made her shy.
Reflecting on Neville’s consistent support during this time, she added gratefully, “Thank you for everything lately.
Your presence means a lot to us.
I wonder if Miley will start to worry.
”
Miley must have been extremely anxious after such a major accident occurred.
However, the issue with Kristian remained unresolved, making it difficult for Stella to reach out to the outside world and reassure Miley of her safety, especially since it could potentially disrupt Matthew’s plan.
“I told Miley that I’m on a business trip.
If she gets angry with me when we eventually tell her the truth, you’ll have to explain everything to her for me,” Neville said, sighing resignedly.
“Of course,” replied Stella.
“If she replaces out I lied to her, she’ll definitely be upset.
But then again, who knows? If she understands I did it to protect you, maybe she’ll even thank me,” he mused uncertainly.
Neville grew excited when he spoke about Miley.
His relaxed tone was comforting.
After chatting with him for a while, Stella found herself feeling much better.
As the two spoke, Bella descended the stairs.
Noticing that she didn’t look well, Stella put a hand on her shoulder and asked, “What’s wrong? Are you not feeling well?”
She reached out to feel Bella’s body temperature but the latter stopped her.
“Come to my room,” Bella said, casting a strange look.
“I have to tell you something.
”
With that, she turned around and left.
Stella glanced at Neville, and the two exchanged confused looks.
Stella immediately followed Bella without thinking twice.
In her room, Bella settled at the foot of the bed.
Stella approached slowly.
She still remembered Bella was visibly frightened when they were brought here.
However, in that tense moment, mo one had thought to conduct a physical examination for Bella.
Stella became worried when she thought about it.
