Chapter 446
When Love Comes Late
How could he break the news without angering her?
What words should he choose?
He sighed softly.
This was proving more challenging than any task heâd ever faced at work.
Meanwhile, Stella stood still, watching Matthewâs receding figure.
She was still a little surprised.
Why had Matthew personally gone to buy her a muffin?
Should she follow him or not?
Just as she was grappling with her decision, a car suddenly sped to them.
The headlights were blinding.
Stella instinctively raised her hand to shield her eyes, but then noticed the car seemed to be heading straight for Matthew.
Her heart skipped a beat.
She sprinted towards Matthew, yelling at the top of her lungs, âMr.
Clark! Watch out!â
The car accelerated and crashed into the dessert shop where Matthew was located.

Suddenly, a deafening gunshot echoed, followed by a loud âbangâ as one of the carâs tires burst.
Stella instinctively covered her ears and dropped to the ground.
The vehicle lurched, and its speed dropped significantly.
Then, another gunshot popped the remaining tire, rendering the car immobile.
Stella sat there in shock, still trying to process what had just happened.
On the opposite side of the car, both tires were flat.
A man dressed in black and wearing a cap hastily exited the vehicle, cursing under his breath as he made a run for it.
As he fled, several men in black suits chased after him, scattering the panicked pedestrians on the street.
Stellaâs heart continued to race.
After all, the car almost hit Matthew.
Gradually, she regained her composure and, with a dazed expression, verified that Matthew was unharmed.
With relief flooding over her, she rushed to his side.
