When Love Comes Late
Chapter 956

The last of the fireworks gave off its light and disappeared into the night sky.

Everywhere was silent.

Matthew placed his forehead against hers as he stared at her affectionately.

Stella’s face was flushed, and her eyes were full of desire.

Her lips were slightly swollen because of his ki*s.

When she saw desire reflected in Matthew’s eyes, her heart skipped a beat.

Who would have thought that Matthew, who had been a cold man in the past, would come to have such a wide range of emotions?

Shyly, she lowered her head.

Matthew’s eyes darkened with passion.

He was barely able to restrain himself.

“Close your eyes.

”

Stella was surprised.

However, she closed her eyes.

Soon she felt a coolness on her neck, as though something cold had been put on her neck.

Stella opened her eyes and saw that it was a pearl necklace.

“Matthew…”

She couldn’t believe it.

She had thought that Matthew had gotten the necklace for someone else.

Not once had she thought that it was meant for her.

“Do you like it?” Matthew asked softly.

Stella touched the necklace.

With a smile, she said, “It’s beautiful.

I like it.

”

Matthew’s eyes were full of warmth.

“I’ve had it for a while now.

I was just waiting for the day I proposed to give it to you.

I’ve been waiting for this day for a long time.

I want to spend the rest of my life with you.

”

Stella stared at him mutely, not knowing what to say.

Her face was bright red.

Matthew’s eyes narrowed, and he carried her and walked into the villa, saying, “Let’s go in.

”

“We haven’t eaten the cake yet,” Stella reminded him.

“It doesn’t matter.

” Matthew quickened his pace and carried her into the bedroom.

He then placed her on the bed.

He lay on her and ki*sed her roughly.

He put his hands into her cloth, stroking every inch of her skin his hands came into contact with.
