Chapter 1113
When Love Comes Late
Mileyâs eyes lit up as she took a small sip.
She turned to Matthew with wide eyes.
âItâs amazing!â
Matthew only gave a nod in response.
After a few sips, Miley put down her glass.
On the other hand, Neville was gulping down one glass after the other.
He had finished half of the bottle.
âYouâre going to get drunk.
You should stop,â Miley warned.
Neville continued as if she hadnât said anything.
Too tired to keep pestering him, Miley gave up.
Neville had almost finished the whole bottle when Matthew spoke up.
âYouâve had enough, Neville.
Go home.
â
Matthew snatched the wine bottle from Neville before turning to Miley.
âIâll have my bodyguards take you back.
Youâre going to have to take care of Neville.

Matthew wanted to give Neville and Miley a chance to talk.
He guessed Neville was being weird because of her.
Stella instructed one of the bodyguards to get the car ready while Matthew helped Neville get on his feet.
Matthew dragged Neville to the car and shoved him inside.
Miley quickly said goodbye to Stella and got in.
Stella watched as the car disappeared into the distance.
Once the car was out of sight, Stella turned to Matthew with a worried look.
âNeville seems troubled.
Miley said heâs been acting weird lately.
Do you know whatâs wrong with him?â
Matthew stared at the empty road for a while, then placed his hand on Stellaâs shoulder.
âHeâll talk once heâs ready.
Iâm sure things would work out fine.
Theyâre adults anyway.
â
In the car, Miley looked at Neville, who was drunk and disheveled.
She was feeling very distressed and worried.
Having spent some time with Neville, she could tell that he was upset.
But he always preferred to drink it all away rather than talking and relying on her.
