Chapter 358
When Love Comes Late
Matthew was concerned that Waldo might support Jeremy in an effort to pressure Amara into compromising.
After the inspection, he realized that it had been a long time since he had visited Amara, so he decided to drop by.
However, he didnât anticipate running into Stella here.
The two gazed at each other in silence for a few seconds.
Matthew was about to speak when he heard Amaraâs voice.
âStella, who is it?â Amaraâs descending footsteps echoed.
When she saw Matthew, she quickened her pace in surprise.
âMatthew, youâre here.
â
Matthew looked away from Stella and explained, âI was here for business, and I thought Iâd drop by for a visit.
â
Amara held his hand and studied him up and down.
Stella found an opportunity to speak.
âItâs getting late.
I should go now.
â
âOh, donât go yet!â Amara said.
âYou promised to stay for dinner, remember?â
As she spoke, she pulled Matthew in and closed the door.
Stella studied Matthewâs expression, her eyes filled with hesitation.
After some thought, she declined politely, âIâd rather not disturb you while you catch up.
â
Before Amara could say anything, Matthew spoke first.

âItâs not a problem.
We can have dinner together.
â
Amara seized the opportunity to chime in.
âSee, your boss has already agreed.
Will you refuse the both of us?â
Unable to find a reason to refuse, Stella had no choice but to give in.
Amara took the main seat in the dining room, while Stella and Matthew sat across from each other on opposite sides.
Stella kept her head low and ate in silence.
âStella, donât be shy, alright?â Amara said warmly, offering food on her plate.
