Fernando stood still, taken aback by the unexpected request.
He opened his mouth but didnât know what to say.
Unable to get any response from Fernando, Matthew looked at him in confusion.
Sensing Fernandoâs unease, Matthew furrowed his brow and encouraged, âGo ahead, speak your mind.

After some internal deliberation, Fernando revealed, âI encountered Stella this morning.
She⦠She was inquiring about Neville Pierce.

Matthewâs expression darkened.
âWhat exactly did she ask?â
Fernando, who hadnât seen Matthew display anger in quite some time, felt his heart race.
He steeled himself and confessed, âShe wanted to know whether he was married and what his interests were.

Matthewâs displeasure remained beneath the surface.
Still, Fernando sensed it, reinforcing the idea that there was indeed a unique connection between Stella and Matthew.
Fernando wisely chose to remain silent, allowing Matthew time to process the information.

Upon seeing Matthew arrive, the butler promptly went upstairs to notify Neville.
Shortly thereafter, Matthew heard footsteps from above.

His bathrobe was casually knotted, exposing a broad swath of his chest.
His eyes were drowsy and half-shut.
The woman wisely planted a ki*s on his cheek and left with a smile.
Neville then made his way to the living room and took a seat next to Matthew.
Yawning, he asked, âArenât you supposed to be at work? Why are you here so early?â
