Chapter 230
When Love Comes Late
Intrigued, she swiftly picked it up, her fingers dancing over the screen.
It was a message from Maverick.
âApologies for my tardiness last night.
Unforeseen matters demand my attention, and Iâm afraid I wonât be able to join you for a while.
Take care and indulge in some well-deserved rest.
â
Stella stared at those words, her gaze locked on the message.
Gradually, she came to terms with the truth: Maverick was the one who landed her in the hospital.
With a sigh, she tucked her phone away, her lips sealed in silence.
In the afternoon, Stellaâs doctor wrapped up her check-up and gave her the green light to leave the hospital.
Clint and Oliver took Stella home.
As they approached the house, they caught sight of a figure kneeling outside.
Closer and closer the car glided, the manâs face gradually came into view.

It was Aziel!
Just seeing Aziel pissed Oliver off.
He jumped out immediately the car was parked.
He rushed towards Aziel and landed a kick on his shoulder.
âScrew you! How dare you come back here! Stella is our family.
How dare you insult her like that?â
Oliver grabbed Azielâs collar, landing punches on his face one after the other.
Instead of fighting back, Aziel just let Oliver toss him around.
He begged for mercy repeatedly.
âI⦠I know⦠I was wrong.
âYouâre a total waste of space! How could you hurt your niece? Are you even human?â Oliver raged.
Clint was so angry that he trembled all over.
Holding his cane, he was about to take a step forward, when Stella suddenly stopped him.
âWhy donât you head in first, Grandpa? I and Oliver will take care of him.
â
Clint refused.
âIâm going to beat this ungrateful bastard to death!
Do not stop me! I must beat him!â
âGrandpa, please calm down.
Itâs not worth it.
Oliver and I will be very sad if you accidentally get hurt.
So please go in.
â Stella wasnât interested in his opinion.
She called the butler over, âPlease take him in for me.
