Chapter 612
When Love Comes Late
Stella smiled.
âIâm sorry.
Iâve been busy with work recently, and I didnât even pick you up from the hospital.
Are you feeling better now? I brought you some nourishing food.
â
âItâs not a big deal.
Seeing you again has already improved my condition.
â Lucia led Stella to her seat.
The more Lucia observed Stella, the more she Liked her.
But knowing that Stella was planning to divorce Matthew, Lucia couldnât help but feel concerned.
As Stella put away the nourishing food, she noticed the worry on Luciaâs face.
After a brief silence, she asked, âMrs.
Clark, is there something youâd like to discuss with me today?â
After hesitating for a moment, Lucia decided to be straightforward.
âStella, I heard that youâre planning to divorce Maverick.
Can you tell me why? Did he do something wrong? If he did, I can help teach him a lesson.
â
It was indeed about the divorce, and Stella had expected this question.
She replied honestly, âMrs.
Clark, itâs not Maverickâs fault.
You know that weâve been married for a year, but we havenât lived together or spent much time as a couple.
Continuing like this wouldnât be beneficial to either of us.
â
She lowered her gaze and continued, âWhen I visited you at the hospital, I was already contemplating a divorce.
However, I didnât want to burden you with this matter during your recovery, so I chose to keep it to myself.
â
âIf itâs because you havenât lived together, Maverick-â Lucia began, wanting to reassure her that they would soon live together, but Stella cut her off.
âSorry, Iâve already decided on a divorce,â Stella asserted.
âIâve realized that I have feelings for someone else, and I donât want to complicate matters for Maverick or myself.
â
âWhat?â Lucia exclaimed in surprise.
Realizing she had overreacted, she composed herself and asked cautiously, âStella, can you tell me who youâve fallen in love with?
Is it someone you work with?â

Stella hesitated for a moment and then confessed, âIâm sorry.
I know I havenât divorced Maverick yet, so I shouldnât have developed feelings for someone else.
But I canât control my heart.
â
She clasped her hands tightly and continued, âPlease donât ask me any more about this.
Iâll apologize to Maverick personally for this situation.
Iâm willing to relinquish all my assets to expedite our divorce.
â
âStellaâ¦â Lucia had guessed the reason for their divorce, but she didnât expect it to be this.
Stellaâs revelation left Lucia speechless.
Stella raised her head and smiled at Lucia.
âMrs.
Clark, donât worry.
Even if I divorce Maverick, I will still treat you as an elder.
You can come to me if you need anything.
â
After a moment, Lucia finally spoke.
