Chapter 1049
When Love Comes Late
âIâll be at the door.
Call if you need any help.
â
Stella nodded and sent him off.
Once he left, a collective sigh of relief swept through the room, and everyone hastily found tasks to occupy themselves, fearing they might face repercussions if they were caught idling.
Stella shifted her gaze to Luka.
âAll your clothes are here.
You can choose your favorite type first, and Iâll design the rest for you.
â
Luka, seemingly in no rush, stared at her for a while and inquired, âWhatâs the relationship between you and Mr.
Clark?â
Stella was taken aback by his question.
While Stellaâs relationship with Matthew was nearly public knowledge on the internet, Luka seemed oblivious to it.
Stella saw this as an advantage, as it spared her from potential difficulties he might create.
She replied, her tone firm, âThatâs a personal question, unrelated to our work.
Itâs best to focus on selecting your clothes.
The longer you take, the less advantageous itâll be for us.

Clearly dissatisfied with her response, Luka frowned, seemingly on the verge of expressing his displeasure.
Before he could say anything, his agent barged in urgently, his expression anxious.
âIâve been calling you for a while now.
Why are you not answering?â
âWhatâs going on?â Luka inquired unhappily.
âI just received a notice about Prosperity Groupâs endorsement.
No matter what youâre doing, put it aside and come with me.
â
Luka glanced meaningfully at Stella, maintaining an unhurried tone.
âI havenât been measured for the film costumes yet.
I donât think the director will be happy if we arenât done by today.
â
âWhat? Why the delay?â The agent, now anxious, turned to Stella.
âHelp him with the measurements.
Now!â
Stella remained silent, lowered her head, and continued measuring Lukaâs size with the tape.
Whether it was due to Matthewâs earlier presence or the agentâs arrival, Luka didnât make things difficult for her this time.
As soon as Stella finished with the measurements, the agent whisked Luka away.
She wrapped up her work and stepped out, expecting to find Matthew waiting.
However, he was nowhere in sight, despite his earlier promise.
