Chapter 249
When Love Comes Late
Stella felt a weird feeling in her chest, but just ignored it.
She felt a bit better knowing that Maverick had a good reason for doing that.
After thinking for a few seconds, she replied, âOh, okay then.
Take care of your grandma first.
We can always discuss our matter later.
â
Meanwhile, Matthew went back to the hospital to stay with his grandma after he and Stella parted ways.
Lucia had woken up briefly after the operation, but soon fell into a coma again.
Her condition definitely wasnât good.
Matthew sat beside her bed quietly.
Luciaâs hair had turned even more grey.
She looked so pale and weak.
Memories of how she was the only one who showed him love when he first joined the Clark family flooded his mind.
Despite the fact that they had working staff, she personally cooked a meal for him.
She was an elegant and gentle woman.
He hadnât felt anything back then, though.
He only came back to the Clark family because he wanted to give Amara a better Life, not one where sheâd have to work until she died.
Being the heir of the Clark family, he was strictly trained by Waldo.
It was tiring.
He had to socialize with people he didnât want to.

Every time he returned home late, Lucia would leave a light in the living room for him.
Whenever she heard him come back, she would prepare some snacks for him.
Before he returned to the Clark family, he was living with his mom.
They relied on each other, but she had no time to talk to him about his emotions because she was too busy with work, trying to make a living.
But Lucia had somehow managed to make him feel the warmth of a family.
He loved and respected her deeply.
âMatthewâ¦â A soft voice interrupted his train of thoughts.
He was brought back into reality and responded, âGrandma, youâre finally awake.
How are you feeling? Iâll call the doctorâ¦â He raised his hand to press the button that would bring the nurse.
Lucia held onto his arm and shook her head weakly.
Her quiet action calmed him down.
