Chapter 109
When Love Comes Late
Waldo didnât fall for it.
He stared at his back and commented, âJust look at your grandson.
That woman has bewitched him!â
âDonât get worked up again.
Itâs not good for your health,â Lucia uttered persuasively.
She kept silent for a few seconds and added, âIâll speak to Stella in person.
â
Waldo nodded in low spirits.
âDonât worry too much.
â A cunning smile appeared on Luciaâs face.
âRemember that Matthewâs marriage certificate is in our possession.
He canât get divorced without it.
â
Stella swung into action once she got a good rest.
That night, she bought a painting and had it framed.
The next morning, she had just sat down at her desk when Fernando came with good news.
âTo reward you for your work in Highwyn, you will be paid a bonus alongside your salary for this month.
Check the amount once you get paid.
â
This wasnât the first time she was hearing about the bonus.
However, the news still delighted her.

She thanked Fernando repeatedly.
Fernandoâs voice wasnât loud, but her colleagues around heard it.
They surrounded Stella and congratulated her once Fernando left the office.
Stella smiled and said calmly, âThank you.
â
Luna came over at this time.
Glancing at the crowd, she leaned on the cubicle divider and said mischievously, âIt has been ages since one of us here got a special bonus.
Stella, how about treating us to coffee to celebrate this milestone?â
The others concurred.
Stella decided not to allow Lunaâs sarcasm spoil her mood.
She said with a smile, âIn that case, Iâll go get everyone a cup of coffee.
You all want different kinds, donât you? Please send the specifics to me via text.
â
At Stellaâs generosity, Lunaâs face fell and then twisted into a frown.
She was pissed as the others praised Stella to no end.
Thirty minutes later, Stella returned to the company with cardboard coffee carriers in both hands.
She was just about to take the elevator when she ran into Matthew who was waiting for it too.
