When Love Comes Late -
Chapter 929
Mateo nodded silently.
Placing the medicine on the table, Matthew carefully laid Stella on the bed and covered her.
He glanced at the medicine left by Mateo, feeling uncertain.
After pondering for a moment, he video-called Cordell.
Showing Cordell the medicine, Matthew asked, “Can you identify this medicine?”
“That’s just a common sedative,” Cordell answered honestly.
“What’s wrong? Are you having trouble sleeping?”
“No,” Matthew replied.
“Are you certain it’s only a sedative?”
“Yeah,” Cordell said.

“Who gave it to you? Why are you so cautious?”
Matthew looked at Stella, who was still unconscious.
“We’ll discuss this later.
I have other matters to attend to.
”
With that, he hung up the video call.
He took a glass of water and returned to the room.
Perched on the edge of the expansive bed, he gently raised Stella from beneath the blanket, securing her with one arm around her waist to ensure she didn’t slip away from his embrace.
In his other hand, he held a spoon with warm water containing a dissolved pill.
As he touched Stella’s Lips with the spoon, she promptly expelled its contents, perhaps reacting to the bitterness of the dissolved pill.
Matthew attempted several more times, but Stella continued to struggle to swallow the solution.
Gazing at her intently, Matthew retrieved a fresh pill from the nightstand, opening it before taking a sip of water himself.
Leaning down, he tenderly ki*sed her soft lips, carefully transferring the water containing the pill into her mouth.
Stella’s throat moved slightly, eventually facilitating the pill to slide down and be ingested.
Exhaling in relief, Matthew ki*sed her once more before gently Laying her back down.
Stella slept until dawn.
Upon opening her eyes, she found herself in the familiar pink-hued room she had previously occupied.
She rubbed her eyes and noticed someone beside her.
