Chapter 2094
When Love Comes Late
If Stella was truly gone, any chance of a future with Bennett would be utterly lost!
Just as she was about to take one final glance at the car wreckage, Bennettâs call came through.
Joann was so frightened she wanted to ignore the call, but her hands shook so badly that she accidentally pressed the answer button.
Bennett asked coldly, âWhere are you now?â
Joann trembled, too scared to respond.
Bennettâs voice was icy, saying, âIs Stellaâs disappearance connected to you? Joann, listen carefully, if anything happens to Stella, the entire Crawford family will answer for it!â
His voice was filled with rage-the angriest Joann had ever heard.
She was terrified.
âSorry, Iâm sorry! I didnât mean it.
I didnât know she was.
.
â
Before she could finish her sentence, another explosion erupted from the van in front of her.
Joann could only watch in horror as the van was reduced to a charred shell.
Anyone inside would have surely perished.

Bennett heard the explosion through the phone.
He asked sharply, âWhatâs happening? Whereâs Stella? What have you done to her?â
Joann was paralyzed with fear.
She knew Bennett would never forgive her.
Overwhelmed, she started to cry.
Bennett clenched his teeth and said, âWhatâs going on? Speak up!â
Joannâs lips quivered, and after a moment, she said rigidly, âStella is dead.
I killed herâ¦â
She was filled with regret.
Had she known the truth sooner, she would never have harmed Stella.
Silence fell on the other end of the line, and the call disconnected.
Joann felt like she had been plunged into an icy abyss, her entire body chilling.
As despair nearly overtook her, someone suggested, âIt looks like no one in the van.
Perhaps the woman escaped?â
Hope flickered in Joannâs eyes.
She blurted out, âDonât just stand there.
Search for her.
If you find her, bring her to me immediately.
No one is to harm her!â
Joann felt a surge of relief.
She was fortunate.
If Stella had indeed escaped the van, she might still be alive.
As long as Stella was safe, there might still be a chance for reconciliation with Bennett.
