When Love Comes Late
Chapter 814

How could this happen to her?”

Matthew reached out to offer Lucia a comforting touch, patting her shoulder gently.

Despite his own exhaustion, he mustered the strength to comfort Lucia, reassuring her, “Stella has made it through the worst.

She’ll wake up soon.

And I promise, once she’s recovered, I’ll bring her to visit you formally.

In the past, such a promise would have brought a smile to Lucia’s face.

But now, her expression remained heavy with grief.

“But what actually happened? Who was it that called me this morning?

Is it one of your enemies?”

Lucia was keenly aware that the prominence of the Clark family made them a target.

However, she had never imagined that it would put Stella’s life in jeopardy.

“Grandma, I will handle it.

Please, don’t worry,” Matthew reassured her, though his voice was hoarse from stress and fatigue.

“You need to go back and get some rest.

I’ll call you the moment Stella wakes up.

“I’m not leaving, ” Lucia stated firmly, her resolve unwavering.

She could see how exhausted Matthew was.

His eyes were sunken, dark circles beneath them, and his suit, stained with blood, was in disarray.

He had never appeared so unkempt before.

Lucia knew she couldn’t leave at this moment.

Her heart ached as she realized the extent of the toll this situation had taken on these two young people.

“I’m fine.

It’s you who needs rest.

” Lucia held Matthew’s hand.

“I’ll stay with Stella.

You can go and rest in the next room.

Matthew forced a smile.

“Grandma, I’m not tired,” he insisted, his gaze returning to Stella, lying motionless in the hospital bed.

She was still unconscious.

How could he possibly consider rest at a time like this?

“Look at yourself, Matthew.

You’re a mess.

If Stella woke up and saw you like this, it would break her heart,” Lucia said sternly, her voice filled with concern and authority.

“You are going to get some rest right now, or I’m not leaving this hospital today.

I’ll stay right here, with both of you, until Stella wakes up.

“Grandma…

Lucia dismissed his protests, turning to a servant with clear instructions.

“Fetch a few sets of my clothes, and make sure to inform my husband that I will be staying at the hospital for the next couple of days.

“What? Madame…” The servant hesitated, looking between Lucia and Matthew, unsure of how to proceed.
