Chapter 1901
When Love Comes Late
Stella was slightly surprised.
Before she could speak, she heard Mileyâs anxious voice asking, âWhere are you now? Are you with Matthew?â
Stella glanced at Clint lying in the hospital bed, and then walked a bit further.
She said quietly, âGrandpa suddenly fainted.
Iâm here in Bysea with him.
Matthew has business in Seamarsh.
â
After explaining, she asked Miley, âItâs late.
Why bring up Matthew all of a sudden?â
Miley stayed silent momentarily before speaking seriously.
âSomeone posted photos online.
They show Matthew with a woman at a hotel gate, looking quite close.
At first, I thought it was you in the photos, but on closer inspection, it wasnât.
Since youâre not together now, is heâ¦â
Miley refrained from using the word âcheating.
â
She added firmly, âYou should ask Matthew about that woman soon.
If he betrays you, I wonât forgive him.
â
Stella didnât respond to Miley right away as she looked at the photos.
One particularly well-taken photo showed that Matthew completely blocked the woman next to him, creating a more intimate appearance.

The business world was always buzzing about Matthew, so the photos quickly made him a trending topic on social media.
Stella scrolled through the comments, and as_ expected, people were speculating about her marriage with Matthew.
âOh my goodness! Is Matthew cheating? Is Stella too old? Or not attractive enough?â
âThis is what happens in wealthy families.
Every man likes young and beautiful girls.
Theyâve been married for so long.
Maybe Mr.
Clark is bored with Stella.
â
Stella read through a few comments and couldnât help but frown.
Then, she stopped paying attention to the comments and zoomed in on one photo.
With just a glance, she recognized the woman in it as Lindsay.
Calmly, she assured Miley, âDonât worry.
I recognize the girl in the photos.
â
âWhat?â Miley was puzzled.
Stella explained, âItâs Lindsay Wheeler.
Matthewâs grandmother raised her.
Sheâs sort of like Matthewâs sister.
â
After pausing in surprise for a moment, Miley asked, âSo, thereâs someone like that in Matthewâs family? Why havenât we heard about her before?â
âShe studied abroad and returned recently.
I only met her recently myself.
Sheâs now working at Prosperity Group as Matthewâs assistant.
Today, Matthew sent Fernando with me to Bysea, so he must have taken her to the party.
You donât need to worry about the photos.
Letâs just ignore them and stay calm.
â
After hearing the explanation, Miley thought it made sense, but based on her intuition, she still advised Stella, âEven so, you should keep an eye on her.
There might be some truth to the internet rumors.
She was raised by Matthewâs grandmother, but sheâs not related to the Clark family by blood.
â
Whether because of the photos or Mileyâs words, Stella felt uneasy for a moment.
But recalling her good relationship with Lindsay, she hesitantly said, âLindsay couldnât be involved in something like this.
â
âYou need to take my words seriously.
Considering the influential Clark family and Matthewâs status, can you be certain she has no feelings for him?âMiley urged.
