When Love Comes Late -
Chapter 618
Startled awake, Matthew slowly opened his eyes.
He noticed Fernando’s presence and shifted his gaze away.
Placing the coffee cup on the desk, Fernando inquired with concern, “Did you stay at the office last night? Is there an urgent matter that requires your attention?”
“No, there’s nothing,” Matthew replied in a hoarse voice.
Taking a sip of coffee to regain his composure, Matthew rubbed his temples and asked, “What’s on my schedule for today?”
“You look exhausted.
Have you considered going home to get some rest?”
Fernando expressed his concern as he noted Matthew’s fatigued appearance.
Matthew shook his head, stating, “No need.
”
Respecting his decision, Fernando proceeded to report the day’s agenda.
“There is an international meeting at ten o’clock…” He also handed Matthew an album and an invitation to an auction hosted by Redman later in the evening.
“Tonight, Redman will hold an auction.
He has sent the auction album and the invitation.
He hopes you can participate in it.
”
Matthew declined promptly, stating, “I’m not interested.
”
He was not in the mood at all.
Fernando hadn’t anticipated such a swift refusal.
After a moment’s pause, he reminded Matthew, “This auction boasts an impressive collection of jewelry, and your grandmother’s birthday is fast approaching.
In previous years, you attended auctions abroad to select jewelry for her.
This year, you can achieve the same without having to travel.
”
After all, Matthew was suffering from fear of flying and couldn’t stay in a closed space for a long time.
It was the best choice not to go abroad.
Initially dismissive, Matthew decided to peruse the album.
The auction featured a remarkable array of valuable jewelry, some of which was crafted by renowned artisans.
He looked carefully and wanted to see if there was any jewelry suitable for Lucia.
As he examined the items, a thought took root.

Perhaps this auction could provide the perfect opportunity to invite Stella to accompany him.
Since their unexpected ki*s, Stella had been keeping her distance, only engaging in discussions about work before swiftly departing.
Furthermore, Matthew needed a pretext to broach the subject of divorce with Stella.
He remained unconvinced that she had genuinely fallen in love with someone else.
With newfound resolve, Matthew closed the album and turned his attention to Fernando.
“I will attend the auction tonight.
Please inform Stella that she will be accompanying me.
