Chapter 600
When Love Comes Late
âMiley, wake up.
Your soupâs ready.
Gently nudging Miley awake, Stella handed her the bowl.
Miley sipped the soup and set it aside.
She took the bowl from Stellaâs hand and drank up the soup.
âWould you like more?â Stella asked, pity filling her eyes.
Miley shook her head, pulling back the quilt to pat the spot beside her.
âSit with me a bit.
â
Once Stella had settled next to her, Miley wrapped her arms around her waist, snuggling close.
Miley sighed.
âIâm so grateful to have someone who can make soup for me in the dead of night.
â
Petting Mileyâs hair, Stella spoke.
âIâll be here for you, Miley, butâ¦
After a pause, she continued, âCan we not ask Matthew for help?â
Hearing this, Miley raised her head.
Miley looked up, sensing the tension in Stellaâs words.
Considering Stellaâs earlier reluctance concerning Matthew, she decided not to probe.
In any case, Stella held a far more significant place in her heart than anything else.

Miley nodded.
âAlright.
â
âThank you, Miley,â Stella said, feeling both moved and somber.
She wanted nothing more to do with Matthew and didnât want to be further indebted to him.
After a brief pause, Stella continued, âAlso, Miley, Iâm considering moving out.
â
Seeing Matthew was unavoidable in Prosper Bay.
If she wanted to sever their ties, a decisive action was necessary.
Miley was somewhat taken aback.
She couldnât quite fathom why Stella suddenly wanted to move out.
Miley looked puzzled but responded, âIf thatâs what you decide, IâUL stand by you.
