When Love Comes Late
Chapter 808

Slowly, Stella’s eyes fluttered closed.

Yet even in that final moment, hope endured.

Matthew had just said he would replace her.

And he would never break his promise.

Stella whispered a prayer, yearning for Matthew to replace her swiftly.

Every fiber of her being ached, and exhaustion weighed her down Like a heavy blanket.

ALL she wanted was to succumb to sleep.

After what felt like an eternity, she sensed someone nearing her, their voice tinged with urgency as they repeated her name.

Could it be Matthew?

She strained to open her eyes, but her eyelids felt like they were made of lead, resisting her every effort.

Muffled voices buzzed near her ear.

A man and a woman were conversing close to her ear.

Stella was eager to hear their conversation clearly, but their voices were muffled and indistinct.

Who were they?

She felt as though she were lost in a misty forest, shrouded in fog, bereft of sight.

“Baby…”

Was someone calling her? Who was calling her?

“I have to go.

Mom has her reasons.

I’m sorry…”

Who was speaking? Who were they? Where were they going?

Why had they left her behind, abandoned her at an orphanage?

A shadowy figure materialized within the fog, calling out “baby” repeatedly.

Stella took steps forward, lunging to reach the elusive form.

Her hands grasped at emptiness.

The fog lifted, revealing a boundless void.

Stella stood there, bewildered, surveying her surroundings.

It all felt like a fleeting dream.

Her gaze fell to her hands.

Her awareness seemed to sharpen.

Wait, hadn’t she been in a car accident? Where was she now? Where was Matthew?

And who was that woman? Could she be her mother?
