Chapter 336
When Love Comes Late
When Stella finally noticed, she made sure to keep her distance from Zola to avoid any conflict.
She was going to do the same thing today.
Besides, this was Betsyâs party.
Zola walked straight towards Stella, not giving her a chance to leave.
She sat beside Stella and said, âStella! Why are you here? I thought you were abroad.
â
Besty took Stellaâs hand in hers, giving it a small squeeze.
âStella just returned to Seamarsh so I used the opportunity to invite her.
Sheâs married.
â
Besty thought Zola would let the grudge go if she was aware that Stella was married.
Zola eyes widened slightly.
âSeriously?â Her tone changed, becoming deceptively friendly.
âWhat does he do? Your husband? Is he from Seamarsh as well?â
Not wanting to elongate the conversation, Stella replied curtly, âHeâs a businessman.
â
âA businessman huh? His name? Iâm sure my husband would know yours.
Heâs a top entrepreneur in Seamarsh.
â
At this moment, Zolaâs husband, Colden Natt, entered and offered an apology, saying, âIâm sorry, it was quite challenging to find a parking space.
â
Zola gently took the manâs arm and said playfully, âDarling, why are you apologizing? Our car is just too huge.
â
She cast a defiant glance at Stella and inquired, âSince my husband happens to be here, you can go ahead and tell us about your husband.
â
Stella replied politely, âHeâs just a regular businessman.
I donât believe your husband is acquainted with him.

Zolaâs confidence grew.
She smiled and said, âStella, please, just tell us his name.
It shouldnât be so hard, right? As our husbands are both businessmen, they could assist each other in their endeavors.
â
âBut, if they donât know each other, then we can drop the subject.
â
Zolaâs persistence made Stella feel somewhat uncomfortable.
She had no other option but to comply.
âHis name is Maverick Clark.
â
Zola had never heard this name before, so she turned to her husband for a reaction.
