Chapter 1147
When Love Comes Late
His body is missing.
And the bomb must have been a fake.
It didnât go off I think Benny might still be alive.
â
Matthewâs face fell.
He tried his best to talk calmly.
âIâll handle it, thanks.
â
He looked out the window, recollecting himself.
âJust send one of our men to keep an eye on Evelynâs place.
If heâs truly alive, he might go back there.
â
âGot it.
â With that, Fernando hung up.
Matthew blamed himself.
If he didnât end up being hospitalized, he would have made sure Benny was actually gone.
But one question lingered at the back of his mind.
Who had saved Benny?
Different people crossed his mind but none of them seemed to fit.
After a few more seconds of pondering, he walked back to the others at the table.
Stella noticed that something was wrong.
âAre you okay?â
Matthew gave her a small smile.
âIt was just a minor issue at the company.
Itâs been resolved now.
â
Stella hummed, deciding not to press further.
Once they were done eating, Stella and Matthew left.
They had driven far away from the Clark familyâs residence when Stella asked.
âThat callâ¦It wasnât about the company, was it?â Her tone was certain.

Matthew had originally planned to keep it from her, but decided it was best for her to know for her own safety.
He stole a quick glance at her.
âWeâre not certain, but Benny might be alive.
â
âHuh?â Stella eyes widened.
âBut howâs that possible? I saw him get shot.
â
Suddenly, her mind wandered off to Flossie, who was also present at that time.
âHold onâ¦â Stella hurriedly took out her phone and called Flossie.
Flossieâs phone had been turned off.
Stella grew worried.
Was Flossie working with Benny?
Matthew ruffled her hair to comfort her.
âYou have to make sure to be alert at all times until we confirm if heâs actually dead.

In Sunnysky Restaurant, Neville sat at a table, tapping away on his phone, clearly restless.
Cordell messaged him about Matthewâs day, prompting a concerned frown from him.
