Ch.861 Chapter 864 - When Love Comes Late

Donât jump to conclusions.

He hasnât been involved in any scandalous affairs for years.

Heâs not one to act recklessly.

Stella couldnât shake off her discomfort.

She looked at Miley and said, âToday, he told me he had a lot of work to deal with at the company and would be working late.

Miley managed an awkward smile and continued to defend Matthew, saying, âPerhaps theyâre working together.

They donât necessarily have to discuss business matters at the office.

I often take my employees to bars and clubs to discuss work-related matters.

Stella remained silent, growing increasingly irritated.

She took Mileyâs hand and led her away.

âLetâs go somewhere else and not interrupt his âbusinessâ conversation.

After Stella and Mileyâs departure, Cordell returned from the restroom and settled beside Matthew.

He cast a discerning eye on Matthew and inquired, âHowâs the conversation going?â

Matthew nodded, offering an objective assessment, âDr.

Beckett is exceptionally professional.

I intend to take Stella for a check-up.

With this declaration, he raised his glass towards the woman beside him and expressed his gratitude.

âDr.

Beckett, Iâm genuinely grateful for your assistance.

Selene Beckett, with a gracious smile, raised her glass in return.

âMr.

Clark, youâre most welcome.

Itâs truly an honor to assist you.

Selene, an expert in neurology introduced by Cordell, managed her own private clinic.

Determined to ensure Stellaâs well-being, Matthew resolved to schedule another check-up.

The best outcome would be discovering that Stella was in perfect health.

With a subtle smile, Selene added, âWhen your wife has some free time, feel free to bring her to my clinic.

We can discuss the specifics then.

Upon exiting the bar, Stella released Mileyâs hand.

The two of them made their way back to the car.

Miley lowered her voice and inquired, âWhere would you like to go, Stella? Iâm at your service.

Perhaps a meal?â

Stella, despite her inner turmoil, summoned the strength to appear more cheerful and responded, âYou decide, Miley.

âIn that case, letâs start with a meal and then indulge in some retail therapy,â Miley suggested, attempting to lighten the atmosphere.

Stella nodded.

âYou know, social engagements are commonplace, especially for someone like Matthew who oversees such a large corporation.

You used to be his personal PR officer, so you must be aware of his responsibilities.

Try not to overthink it.
