Chapter 1298
When Love Comes Late
It had been a while since anyone had visited their home, and Besty was familiar with all their friends.
This was the first time she had seen this car which was undoubtedly owned by a woman.
Stella caught Bestyâs troubled glance and sensed something was wrong.
As they exited the car and entered the house hand in hand, the silence of the empty living room seemed to echo their unease.
No signs of visitors anywhere.
Bestyâs face turned ashen as she ascended the stairs, only to freeze at the sound of a womanâs voice coming from one of the rooms.
She instinctively recoiled, but Stella was quick to steady her.
Then came Felipeâs chilling words.
âOnce Besty mortgages the house for a loan, Iâll take that money, along with what we borrowed from her parents.
Then, we can escape this cursed place and start anew elsewhere.
Iâm fed up with Besty.
Sheâs not as gentle as you.
â
âIs that so?â The sweetness in the other womanâs voice was unmistakable.
Disbelief and hurt clouded Bestyâs judgment.
Stella led her to confront the truth.
They opened the door to find Felipe and another woman naked in a compromising position on the bed.
The woman quickly wrapped herself in the blanket, but not before Besty recognized her as Sharon Scott, the doctor who had been treating Felipe.
âYou⦠youâ¦â Bestyâs rage made her tremble uncontrollably.
Despite Bestyâs fury, Stella remained composed and suggested, âLetâs document his betrayal first.

She threw their clothes away and began to take photos, effectively preventing any escape attempts.
âWhat are you doing?â Outraged, Felipe attempted to grab her phone.
âIf you so much as move, Iâm calling the police this instant!â
Stellaâs threat halted him in his tracks, even as he glared at her with venom.

Realizing his own vulnerable position, Felipe refrained from taking any further action, but he glared angrily at Stella.
Felipe then turned his ire on his wife.
âBesty, fetch my clothes immediately, or Iâll make sure you regret it!â
Besty, as if suddenly realizing something, cast a timid glance with lowered eyes.
Stella, squeezing Bestyâs hand in solidarity, faced Felipe and declared, âBesty will be filing for divorce.
Weâll secure the best lawyer in Seamarsh to take you to court.
Just you wait.
â
After making her statement, Stella grabbed Bestyâs hand and departed, leaving behind the echoes of Felipeâs furious outburst.
Besty, with tears clouding her vision, hung her head in sorrow.
As they returned to the car, Stella handed Besty a tissue.
âSee, heâs not worth your tears.
Heâs not troubled.
He just wanted to exploit you for money.
â
Tears streamed down Bestyâs face, the shock of Felipeââs betrayal hitting her hard.
Marriage to Felipe had never given her a hint of the possibility of such a horrifying incident, and the sudden realization that Felipe had abandoned their wedding vows struck her like a bolt from the blue.
