Ch.754 Chapter 757 - When Love Comes Late

âAre you still bothered by what transpired earlier?â

Stella shook her head.

âNo, Iâm not upset with you anymore.

Whether he was Matthew or Maverick, he had consistently been her support.

Initially, she couldnât accept that she was deceived, particularly when Matthewâs true identity came to Light.

But she now understood that he wasnât entirely to blame.

She believed that if they tackled lifeâs challenges together, they could overcome their complicated roles and create a stable marital life.

Feeling Stellaâs hand tighten within his own, Matthewâs heart swelled with elation.

He gently caressed her face and proposed, âLetâs go home.

Iâll ask Erin to prepare some food for us.

Stella could feel the excitement veiled in his tone.

Stella lightly pursed her lips and responded, âMatthew, while I donât hold any grudge against you, I canât live with you just yet.

Once my grandfather is discharged from the hospital, Iâll look for a separate place.

How about we begin with dating?â

Though disappointed, Matthew managed a smile.

He respected Stellaâs autonomy.

Their marriage had indeed been hasty, devoid of the romantic stages that typically precede such a commitment.

Despite mutual confessions of affection, he wanted to ensure that Stella had no regrets and that their relationship wouldnât start badly.

Regaining his composure, Matthew replied, âAlright, we can start with a date, then.

His solemn tone made Stella feel slightly bashful and a subtle blush tinted her cheeks.

Fortunately, the carâs dim lighting concealed her embarrassment.

Matthew pinched Stellaâs earlobe playfully.

âItâs already late, though.

Why not spend the night at Prosper Bay? We can start house- hunting tomorrow.

Stella nodded, and a silence enveloped the car.

The vehicle moved smoothly through the night.

Stella had endured high levels of stress throughout the entire night.

As she finally began to unwind, a gentle wave of drowsiness overcame her, and she drifted off to sleep in the car.

Sensing something against his shoulder, Matthew turned to find Stella nuzzling in.

He gently patted Fernando, who was seated in front of him, signaling to him to maintain a steady pace.

He gently readjusted Stellaâs position and cradled her in his arms.
