Chapter 1068
When Love Comes Late
Matthew had never witnessed such unbridled happiness on his motherâs face before.
Beside him, Stella stood in silence, her eyes laden with worry as she observed Matthew.
She was uncertain how he would react to this sudden revelation of Amaraâs apparent newfound love.
Upon reviewing the final photograph, Matthew was about to comment when Waldo presented him with his phone.

âThese photos are just the tip of the iceberg.
Thereâs also this video,â Waldo murmured, his expression dark and serious.
Matthew, frowning, accepted the phone and played the video.
It showed Amara and the man sharing a passionate ki*s.
After briefly viewing it, Matthew abruptly stopped the video and tossed the phone on the table.
Adjusting his tie in frustration, Matthew paused to collect his thoughts before addressing Waldo.
âGrandpa, who sent you these?â
He knew how challenging it had been for Amara to care for him over the years.
If she had truly found happiness again, he was prepared to support her wholeheartedly.
However, the possibility of malicious intent from this man loomed in his mind.
Matthewâs eyes narrowed, betraying a storm of thoughts beneath his stern exterior.
âI donât know,â Waldo responded, shaking his head.
âThe photos arrived by mail without a return address.
Iâve asked someone to look into the user ID of the server that sent the video.
â
Matthewâs expression grew more severe.
âIâll look into this myself.
â
Waldo remained silent, his thoughts seemingly distant, before he finally let out a heavy sigh.
âMatthew, when you rejoined the Clark family, your mother chose to stay out.
We initially thought it was due to issues with your father, so we didnât insist.
â
He took a moment before continuing, âGiven that she raised you, sheâs entitled to find love again and we wouldnât object.
However, my investigations suggest that the man sheâs with is not a good person.
Heâs a gambling addict.
â
Matthewâs expression hardened, and he gritted his teeth.
Observing his reaction, Waldo added, âI suspect this manâs sudden appearance is part of a bigger plan.
Weâve seen a series of worrying events recently.
We need to be careful.
â
Everything seemed to be off lately, from what happened at Luciaâs birthday party to the photographs of Amara being dropped off anonymously.
âYou need to talk to your mother as soon as possible,â Waldo said gravely.
