Ch.1780 Chapter 1785 - When Love Comes Late

Noticing her apprehension, Matthew reached out and pulled her into a comforting embrace.

âHey, donât stress about what hasnât even happened yet.

Just go with the flow.

Stella nodded, realizing that worrying wouldnât change anything.

Plus, she wasnât entirely convinced that Bella was her real mom.

Seeing Stellaâs tension ease, Matthew continued, âWeâll have plenty of time to partner with Bella on the clothing project.

We could even snag a strand of her hair for a DNA test.

Stella agreed, feeling a sense of urgency to take action.

With a plan forming in her mind, she felt a glimmer of hope.

Suddenly, a bodyguard hurried over, delivering the news.

âMr.

Clark, Fernando has regained consciousness.

Emerging from Matthewâs ward, Bella prepared to escort Elizabeth for a check-up.

Elizabeth was only feigning illness, so she was reluctant to have any check-up.

She halted mid-step to assert, âIâm feeling considerably better now.

The discomfort has subsided significantly; thereâs no necessity for an examination.

Nevertheless, Bella persisted, reasoning, âGiven your recent discomfort, itâs prudent to seek medical insight into the cause of your stomachache.

âI truly feel fine,â Elizabeth insisted resignedly.

Yet Bella remained steadfast, ultimately compelling Elizabeth to undergo the examination.

The results indicated her wellness.

Bellaâs countenance darkened, her brow furrowing in suspicion.

A bit flustered, Elizabeth confessed, âIt was merely a fleeting stomachache, causing momentary discomfort and perspiration.

I recovered swiftly.

Despite her explanation, Bella remained unconvinced.

Elizabethâs eyes sparkled with a hint of panic.

She grasped Bellaâs hand gently, teasing, âIsnât it fortunate that Iâm in good health? Would you prefer otherwise?â

Before Bella could interject, Elizabeth took the lead in the conversation.

She feigned melancholy, murmuring, âOr do you doubt my sincerity regarding my well-being? Is that how you perceive me?â

Bella didnât directly address the inquiry, opting instead for a hushed inquiry.

âWhy did you insist on accompanying me to the hospital today?â

At the sound of Bellaâs query, Elizabeth abandoned her pretense of sorrow.

Had Bella penetrated her strategic facade?

Observing Bella intently for a moment, Elizabeth felt reassured as it appeared Bella was merely harboring suspicions.

She replied, âI was merely concerned for your well-being, especially considering your recent headaches.

I felt uneasy about you venturing out alone.

As for my remarks in the ward, they stemmed from remorse toward Stella for a past misdeed, prompting me to seek redemption.

After expressing her dismay, she reiterated, âI already have a boyfriend.

How could I persist in foolishness? I didnât anticipate their harsh words.

Bella was swayed by her genuine sentiments and refrained from pursuing the subject further.
