When Love Comes Late
Chapter 243

“It’s my fault, actually.

I failed both you and your father.

” Waldo’s hand that was holding the cane trembled slightly.

“Grandpa Matthew called out.

“How can you believe Aunt’s word against mine? I haven’t done what she accused me of.

I’ve had it up to here with her.

You’d better call her to order otherwise, I will take this matter into my own hands.

”

Waldo frowned.

“When Grandma wakes up, I will explain to her clearly.

I have never cheated on my wife.

I’m not that kind of a man,” Matthew said matter-of-factly.

Waldo’s expression softened.

“Are you telling the truth?”

“Yes, I swear!”

Waldo took a deep breath.

Clenching his cane tightly, he said, “I believe you for now.

I’ll warn your aunt to desist from spreading rumors.

However, you have to make sure you don’t get on your grandmother’s nerves again.

”

Stella returned home to replace the house empty.

She texted Miley, asking about her whereabouts.

Miley’s response came seconds later.

“I’m on a business trip.

It’s going to last two days.

I’ll buy you a gift, so expect my return.

Love you!”

After seeing the message, Stella put her phone aside and began to unpack.

She felt a little tired by the time she was done.

Lying on the bed, she tried to empty her mind.

Suddenly, something occurred to her.

She stood up and picked up her phone.

For a good minute, she chewed her fingernails before opening Maverick’s chat box and sending him a message.

“I’m back in Seamarsh now.

Let’s meet at ICE Cafe at eight o’clock this evening.

We needed to sign the divorce agreement so we can get this over and done with.

”

After sending the message, Stella dropped her phone and went to take a shower.

After that, she stood in front of her wardrobe in a white bathrobe.

She scanned all the dresses.

After a little hesitation, she finally picked out the red dress she had worn the day she returned to Seamarsh.

It reminded her of what happened at the airport.

She was supposed to meet the man she had been married to for a year, so she decided to doll up just to leave a good first impression on him.

Little did she know that she was going to be stood up that day, and it would mark the beginning of many failed meetings in the space of a few months.
