When Love Comes Late

â Camilla exhaled in relief.
Patti admired her reflection in the mirror, twirling to see every angle.
The sight of herself in the dress lifted her mood instantly.
âDo you think Luka will notice me tonight?â Patti asked, seeking validation from Camilla.
Camilla replied with a forced smile, âOf course.
Patti, we should head out now to avoid being late.
â
Patti responded with a cold snort before she slipped into her high heels and strode out of the room with arrogance.
She was certain that she would charm Luka at the party tonight.
As night descended on Pearl Hotel, guests began to gather.
It was Stellaâs debut at a significant event as Mrs.
Clark, alongside him, which understandably made her anxious.
However, in Matthewâs presence, her nerves started to ease.
Sensing her unease, Matthew offered a reassuring gesture, softly patting her hand.
âJust hold onto my arm, donât stress.
You look stunning tonight.
â
Stella responded with a nod and a smile.
Clutching Matthewâs arm, she entered the banquet hall with a beaming smile.
Their arrival immediately drew the gaze of everyone present.
With her lips curved in a smile, Stella looked radiant.
Her elegant makeup and long champagne dress highlighted her graceful figure beautifully.

Her thick hair flowed over her shoulders, enhanced by a diamond-studded rose accessory on her forehead, yet it was her sparkling eyes that truly shone.
She exuded elegance and a noble aura, leaving almost everyone in awe.
Matthew was a famous name in Seamarsh.
The crowd approached the couple, offering compliments on Stellaâs appearance and remarking on how well she complemented Matthew.
With a polite smile, Stella engaged in conversations with them.
A part of her mind drifted to a few months prior, when she was seen as just an ordinary girl, seemingly unfit to be with someone Like Matthew.
While she was lost in thought, a whisper caught her attention.
âHey, isnât that Neville? Itâs been ages since he brought a date to these events.
For a moment there, I thought heâd changed.
â
âYeah, Nevilleâs always had an eye for beauty.
Each of his dates seems more stunning than the last.
â
âBut have you seen his date tonight? Sheâs breathtaking.
Maybe heâs finally ready to settle down.
â
Hearing this, Stella quickly looked around.
To her astonishment, the woman by Nevilleâs side wasnât Miley, but Susie, whom she had briefly encountered at the villaâs entrance some time ago.
