When Love Comes Late
Chapter 821

iting her lip, Stella broached the subject cautiously.

“Mina, did I do something to offend you? If there’s something bothering you, I wish you’d tell me.

”

A flicker of disgust flashed in Mina’s eyes as she looked at Stella, her tolerance for the perceived pretense wearing thin.

“You’re already married.

Why did you seduce Farris?” she asked, her tone harsh and unwelcoming.

Confronted with these startling accusations, Stella was engulfed in a wave of confusion.

The idea of her seducing Farris was utterly absurd.

As Stella held Mina’s gaze, the pieces of the puzzle slowly began to fall into place.

She recalled Mina’s attitude around Farris that night, and it suddenly dawned on her.

Just as Stella was about to clarify her relationship with Farris, Mina, fuelled by anger, launched into a bitter outburst.

“Farris and I were on the brink of getting engaged, but your meddling has led him to spurn me time and time again.

”

Her voice quivered, her eyes brimming with unshed tears.

“It’s all because you are his.

”

“Mina!”

The sharp call interrupted her.

The door was flung open, revealing Farris standing there with an imposing expression.

His eyes bore into Mina as he added in an icy tone, “Don’t disturb her rest.

Leave, now.

”

Mina’s gaze shifted between Farris and Stella, and she felt even more aggrieved.

Tears welled up in her eyes as she hastily exited the room.

Once Mina had left, Farris closed the door softly behind her.

He took a moment to compose himself before turning to Stella with a reassuring smile.

“I’m sorry about that.

Mina has been somewhat spoiled by her family.

Regardless of what she just said, I hope you won’t take it to heart.

”

Stella offered a nod in response, yet she couldn’t help but feel that Mina’s resentment towards her wasn’t entirely unfounded, especially considering the last sentence that Farris had interrupted.

Curiosity got the better of her, prompting her to inquire, “Dr.

Barnes, what was Mina about to say regarding me being your… Have we met before?”

Farris forced a smile as as he searched for the right words.

“She was speaking out of turn, nothing more.

Please, don’t give it another thought.

If her words have upset you, I extend my sincerest apologies on her behalf.

”

“I’m not upset.

” Stella shook her head.
