Chapter 1074

Wilbert’s mind started churning with schemes.

He knew he couldn’t exploit this golden chance alone; he needed an accomplice to execute his plan flawlessly.

A sly, calculating glint appeared in his eyes as Wilbert began to strategize his next move.

In Prosper Bay, Matthew stood motionless, his face expressionless as he gazed at the phone Amara had just hung up.

Stella, picking up on his tone, sensed things weren’t going well.

After a brief silence, she asked, “What did your mom say?”

Snapping out of his thoughts, Matthew set his phone down and sat on the bed’s edge.

“She won’t leave him,” he said, his brow furrowing and eyes darkening.

“I’m heading to Fairwa tomorrow.

I can’t let her keep falling for his lies.

”

“Okay.

” Stella nodded, offering a gentle reassurance.

“Don’t worry too much.

He’s no good.

Your mom will eventually see him for who he is, and this will all work out.

”

Matthew looked troubled.

“I hope you’re right.

”

Stella understood his conflict.

Amara was his mother, and it was tough for him to interfere in her personal life.

But the stakes were high.

Amara wasn’t just his mother; she was tied to the Clark family’s fortunes.

If Amara’s new love was trustworthy, there’d be no issue.

But this man could pose a threat to Matthew himself.

Stella sighed at the complexity of it all.

Hearing this, Matthew gently touched her hair, saying, “I hate that I’ve made you worry alongside me.

”

Stella simply shook her head.

“It’s fine, we’re together in this.

”

Matthew managed a weak smile to reassure her.

He gazed at Stella, his eyes reflecting deep thoughts.

“Ever since she had me, my mom’s been on her own.

It’s not like she’s against the idea of falling in love, but she’s never shown interest in dating.

Her world revolves around the little things in my life.

She just asked me to find her a quiet place to live, wanting to spend her days in solitude once I rejoined the Clark family.
