Chapter 1470
When Love Comes Late
The call connected promptly, and Orionâs voice came through.
âMr.
Clark, weâre still on the way.
â
Without hesitation, Matthew instructed, âA snowstorm is coming.
Bring Flossie back immediately.
â
With the assurance that Flossie and Orion were safe, Stella breathed a sigh of relief.
Meanwhile, Orion ended the call and relayed the situation to Flossie.
âMr.
Clark wants us to head back to the resort first.
Heâll arrange your return once the weather conditions improve.
â
Though Flossie was eager to return home, her concern for safety outweighed her urgency.
Beyond the windowpane, darkness had already descended, obscuring her vision.
Flossie quickly agreed, âOkay, letâs head back.
â
Orion maneuvered the car, informing Flossie of Stellaâs concern for her well-being.
âMrs.
Clark tried to reach you earlier but couldnât get through.
Is your phone off?â
Upon hearing this, Flossie retrieved her phone and inspected it.
âIt was accidentally on flight mode.
â
She turned off the flight mode and was about to dial Stellaâs number when Bennyâs call intercepted hers.
Flossieâs face lit up with a smile, eager to pick up the call.
âWhy havenât you returned yet?â Bennyâs voice remained as icy as ever.
Flossie explained, âI was just about to head back, but I received a snowstorm warning.
Stella was concerned about the potential danger of descending the mountain in the storm, so she insisted I return to the resort first.
Itâs possible I wonât make it back tonight.
â
Suddenly, the car rolled out of control.
It collided with something, causing it to jolt violently a few times.
Flossie was startled, unable to suppress a cry of alarm.
âFlossie? Whatâs going on?â Benny asked, his tone tinged with anxiety.

After the car steadied itself, Flossie raised her phone to her ear, saying, âBennyâ¦â
âSend me your location right away!â Benny demanded urgently.
The impending snowstorm cast an evident shadow over the sky, darkening it by several degrees.
Sensing Bennyâs concern, Flossie reassured him, âIâm alright.
Iâm heading to meet Stella soon.
Mr.
Clark has arranged for a bodyguard to escort me.
Iâll be safe.
Please, donât come here.
â
With that, she swiftly ended the call.
Following the phone call, Orion elucidated the cause of the sudden jolt.
In a trembling voice, he confessed, âMiss, I apologize.
Iâve never driven in such extreme weather conditions before.
Sorry for frightening you like that.
â
Flossie shook her head, casting a compassionate glance at Orion.
