Chapter 41
When Love Comes Late
Her expression went stiff.
Looking at her reflection in the respective steel wall, she fixed her hair and clothes.
The three of them were alone in the elevator.
Finally, Stella had the guts to say, âGood morning.

After they exchanged greetings, she lowered her head and moved to a corner as if that would make them forget about her presence.
The air became more and more awkward.
To reduce the tension she was in, she took out her phone, intending to scroll through social media.
Surprisingly, there was a message waiting for her.
Maverick had texted her the address of where they would be meeting about five minutes ago.

With a deep frown, she tapped her phone screen hard as she typed two messages in a row.
âOkay!â
âLetâs meet tonight!â

She put away her phone in a hurry, straightened her back, and flashed a polite smile.
âHow may I help you?â
âOne of the companyâs branches is currently experiencing some crisis.
We need to travel down there to solve it,â said Fernando seriously.
Stella nodded slightly and quietly waited for him to continue.
âThe head of the public relations department had an accident recently and broke her arm, so she canât come with us.
Mr.
Clark has made you her replacement for the trip,â Fernando explained, rather indifferently.
