Chapter 28
When Love Comes Late
Stella Anderson!
How come his wifeâs name was also Stella Anderson?
Was it just a coincidence?
âYes, you heard me right.
Her name is Stella,â Lucia repeated while Matthew was in a daze.
âWhy did you suddenly ask? Are you now more interested in her because you found out sheâs a good woman?â
Matthew snapped out of it.
Instead of answering her question, he said, âItâs way past your bedtime, Grandma.
Iâll visit you one of these days.
For now, go to bed.
â
Without giving her a chance to speak, he hung up the phone.
Matthew turned to look at Stella who was still keeping her distance.
He figured that it must be a coincidence that his new employee shared the same name with his wife.

He had seen his wife before.
This Stella was very different from the one he married.
Same name, but different people.
Stella was exhausted by the time she returned to her apartment.
After dragging her feet to the bedroom, she jumped when she saw a figure lying in her bed.
She held her chest and took another look at the figure.
It was just her best friend, Miley Cullen.
âHey, girl! You almost scared the shit out of me.
Why are you here?â
Stella uttered, patting her chest with a smile.
Hearing the voice, Miley sat up abruptly.
She glared at Stella and complained, âYou are a bad friend, Ella.
I canât believe you didnât bother to come see me after you returned.
And you ask me why I am here?â
With a pout, Stella moved to the bed and explained, âIâm so sorry.
I had to work overtime since the day I got back.
I wanted to be done with my tasks so I can have fun with you without worrying.
â
Mileyâs anger deflated as soon as she saw the dark circles around her friendâs eyes.
âGet in here, girl.
â She opened her arms wide.
âWhat sort of a boss do you have? Why is he so mean? You only just started work there, but heâs already stressing you out.
What an evil capitalist!â
