Chapter 1188
When Love Comes Late
âIâve learned to fry eggs for now.
Itâs quite simple, actually,â
Matthew responded, guiding Stella away from the hot stove.
âIf you like them, Iâll learn more recipes.
That way, you can enjoy a variety of breakfasts every day,â Matthew added after carefully placing the eggs onto a plate.
He then guided Stella to sit at the table with one hand.
âIâm really looking forward to that,â Stella replied, lifting her head to smile at him warmly.
Matthewâs response was a light chuckle, which Stella found delightfully pleasant.
âLetâs eat first.
â Matthew poured a glass of milk for Stella with a smile.
Scanning the room, Stella asked, âWhere are grandpa and grandma?
Shouldnât we wait for them?â
âThey left early for their morning walk.
They said they didnât want to disturb us,â Matthew responded as he passed Stella a slice of jamâsmeared toast.
Blushing slightly, Stella accepted the toast and bit into it eagerly.
âTake small bites; thereâs no rush.
Have some milk,â Matthew said with a smile, handing her the glass.
Sipping the milk, Stella said, âAbout that invitation⦠I was planning to ask you to accompany me to the party, but you beat me to it.
â
âNeville and I invested in the movie a while back.
We got the invitations before the shooting wrapped up.
I just didnât give it to you until last night,â Matthew responded casually.
Stella paused briefly at the mention of Neville.
âIs Neville going to be there too?â
Matthew shook his head.
âIâm not sure.
I havenât been able to reach him lately.

Stella nodded in response and didnât say anything.
After breakfast, Matthew got ready for work.
As he was about to leave, he turned to Stella.
âIâll come to pick you up this evening, and weâll head to the dinner together.
â
âOkay,â Stella replied, happy with the plan.
âSee you tonight.
â Matthew leaned down and ki*sed Stella on the Lips.
Just as he was about to start his car, Matthewâs phone buzzed.
He glanced at the screen to find a message from an unfamiliar number:
âHope to see you again.
â
The message was brief, mysterious, and unsigned.
