Ch.714 Chapter 716 - When Love Comes Late

Matthew personally drove her to the hospital, not leaving until he saw her disappear into her ward.

As Stella opened the door, she was surprised to find Clint still awake.

âGrandpa, why are you still up?â she asked as she approached him.

Compared to the heavy aura that had weighed her down before she left the hospital, Stella now seemed noticeably more at ease, her steps lighter.

âIâve been reading,â Clint answered succinctly, setting his book aside.

His eyes scanned the space behind Stella, a flicker of disappointment crossing his features.

Stella caught the subtle shift in his expression.

Understanding the unspoken question on his mind, she took the initiative.

âGrandpa, Matthew and I still need time to adapt to the change in our circumstances.

Please, focus on your own well-being and try not to worry about us.

Clint examined Stellaâs face before speaking.

âTell me, is it Matthewâs deceit that bothers you, or is it his identity?â

Caught off guard, Stella hesitated.

Truthfully, she wasnât sure.

Sensing her uncertainty, Clint offered earnestly, âIf itâs the lies that trouble you, you can give him time to prove heâs worth your trust.

Stella pursed her lips and said nothing.

Not pressing for an immediate response, Clint continued, âAnd if itâs his identity that concerns youâ¦â

He paused, grasping Stellaâs hand and patting it reassuringly.

âKnow that you are an exceptional woman in your own right.

Youâre in no way inferior to Matthew.

Stella felt a warm surge of emotion as she looked up at Clint.

She opened her mouth but found no words to adequately express her gratitude.

Clint smiled softly, comforting her further.

âStella, pay heed to your own feelings.

If Matthew is the one you love, then donât hold back.

Be courageous enough to be with him.

The next dayâ¦

Fernando stood in front Matthewâs desk with a document in hand.
