When Love Comes Late -
Chapter 853
Katy firmly believed that Matthew had been coerced into admitting Stella as his wife.
After all, in her eyes, Stella was nothing but a bold and audacious woman who would stop at nothing to be with Matthew.
Katy hadn’t taken Stella seriously at all.
But now, as she observed Stella’s composed behavior, reality defied her expectations.
Katy pondered this for an extended period.
Finally, Stella broke the silence by asking, “Is there anything else?”
Matthew felt a sense of relief as he witnessed Stella’s calm response.
His wife was not one to let herself be disadvantaged.
It was no wonder he was enamored with her.
A smile played across Matthew’s face.
He directed a cold gaze towards Katy and said, “If you have no further business here, you may leave.
”
Katy was taken aback by Matthew’s dismissal.
She appeared visibly flustered as she moved her lips, ultimately departing without uttering a word.
The door closed with a resounding thud.
Stella remained indifferent, shifting her gaze and taking a seat.
She locked eyes with Matthew and raised an eyebrow, teasing, “Why so ungentlemanly to a lady? Was she your backup date before? Were you afraid I’d uncover your secret?”
Matthew shook his head, gazing at her with affection.
“I have no interest in anyone but you.
”
Stella blushed.
Back when Matthew had been her boss, she never expected him to be so eloquent with his words.
Especially lately, he seemed to have mastered the art of sweet talk.
Fortunately, the waiter knocked on the door, entering with their dishes and providing a welcome distraction from the awkward silence.
Stella bowed her head, focusing on her meal in silence.
Matthew deftly picked up his knife and fork and began to explain, “The primary motif of this establishment is pearls.
There’s a small pearl exhibition upstairs that we can visit after dinner.
Perhaps you’ll replace some inspiration there.
”
Stella nodded, pleasantly surprised by the idea.
Following their meal, Matthew guided Stella to the top floor using the elevator.
