Chapter 785
When Love Comes Late
âDid you think I was going to ki*s you?â
Caught off guard, Stellaâs cheeks flushed a vivid hue.
She lowered her eyes, unable to meet his gaze any longer.
Observing her flushed face, Matthew grinned and said, âDonât hesitate to call if you need anything.
â
âOkayâ¦â Caught off guard, Stella merely nodded.
âUhm, will do.
â
Without another word, she swiftly exited the car and bolted into the elevator.
Inside, she took several deep breaths to compose herself.
When she reached the designated private dining room, Stella pushed open the door.
Inside, she found a young woman seated, but no sign of Dulce.
Assuming she had entered the wrong room, Stella began to turn back to double-check the room number.
That was when the woman rose to her feet.
âAre you Stella Anderson? Pleasure to meet you.
Iâm Eloise Avila, Dulceâs assistant,â she greeted, smiling warmly.
Stella paused and introduced herself.
âHello, Iâm Stella Anderson.
â
âDulceâs schedule is packed, so she couldnât make it.
Sheâs sent me to discuss the dress with you,â Eloise explained.
âIâm in-charge of her wardrobe.
â
Stella nodded.
âHave a seat,â Eloise said, gesturing for Stella to take a seat.
Once they were both seated, Stella got right to business.
âWhat specific needs does Dulce have for this gown?â

Eloise explained, âSheâs attending the annual Golden Peac@@k Awards ceremony.
Itâs a significant event for her, and sheâs taking it very seriously.
â
Stella listened attentively, jotting down essential details in her notebook.
Unperturbed, Eloise continued, âMost celebrities opt for high-end brands, but Dulce is relatively new to the industry and doesnât have access to such resources.
Moreover, off-season garments donât suit her burgeoning status.
Sheâs heard about the custom designs your studio offers.
Both the gown for Mrs.
Burke and your piece for the KlassicLuxe competition caught her eye.
Sheâs eager to collaborate with you.
â
Eloiseâs demeanor was amiable, dissolving any reservations Stella might have had.
Fully engaged now, Stella queried, âDoes she have any preferences for the color and style of the dress?â
Eloise was clearly well-prepared.
She smoothly responded to Stellaâs query, saying, âDulce has a penchant for floor-length dresses in a soft shade of pink.
