Chapter 1887
When Love Comes Late
Stella looked at the exquisite dishes on the table, and she could feel their sincerity.
âNo need to trouble yourselves.
We are not picky eaters.
These dishes are great.
â
Kristian gave Stella and Matthew a warm smile, raised his glass, and proposed a toast.
âI want to thank you two for your help that day.
Otherwise, I couldnât imagine what would have happened.
â
Upon hearing this, Stella instinctively looked at Bella.
And she was relieved when she saw that Bellaâs expression remained calm.
Stella shook her head and said, âItâs okay.
Itâs not a big deal at all.
Let bygones be bygones.
â
She really didnât want to talk about Elizabeth.
After all, Elizabeth was Kristian and Bellaâs daughter.
Now that Bella was so disappointed in Elizabeth, no one would be happy if this topic continued.
So, Stella decided to change the topic.
She looked at Bella and said, âActually, there is something important we want to discuss with you today.
â
Then, she looked at Matthew.
Matthew said, âMy friend is ready.
He wants to know when you plan to start the treatment so he can make arrangements in advance.
â
Bella frowned and fell into deep thought for a while.
Then, she replied, âHow about tomorrow? The earlier, the better.
â
âThatâs right.
The earlier, the better.
â Kristian echoed Bellaâs words.
He held Bellaâs hand, looking very concerned and nervous.
Anyone who saw his deep affection would be moved.
Matthew nodded.
âOkay.
Excuse me for a moment.
Iâll make a phone call.
â
Then, he stood up and went out to call Cordell.
After a while, he returned to the dining table and said, âCordell will be in the hospital at nine tomorrow morning.
Please be there, and he will arrange everything for you.
â
âI see.
Thank you for your help,â Bella said.
âDonât mention it,â Matthew said.
Bella smiled.
But Stella could still see her nervousness from her small movements.
So, she said to comfort Bella, âDonât worry.
Cordell is an excellent doctor.
He can definitely take care of your health.
â
Bella felt a little relieved.
âStella, I trust you and Mr.
Clarkâs friend.
â
Kristian quietly watched the interaction between Stella and Bella.
They didnât notice that his eyes had darkened.
Stella offered, âBella, Iâll accompany you to the hospital tomorrow.
â
âAm I not bothering you too much?â Bella asked.
