Chapter 876
When Love Comes Late
Stella fidgeted anxiously.
Matthew, sensing her nervousness, placed his hands on her shoulders, offering a reassuring pat to encourage her to stay calm.
With an impassive expression, Selene delivered the news in a dispassionate tone.
âMrs.
Clark, your wrist nerve is damaged.
â
âHow serious is it? Could I recover?â Stella couldnât contain her impatience.
The thought of her hand being injured and potentially unable to wield a pen sent shivers down her spine.
Her career would be in jeopardy if that happened.

âDonât be anxious.
Thankfully, you came for a reexamination at the earliest time.
With the right medication and rest, you should recover soon,â Selene reassured her.
âIn the short term, itâs best to minimize the use of your right hand.
â
Stellaâs anxiety deepened.
She hadnât completed her design yet, and the deadline was Looming.
Failure to submit the draft on time would mean forfeiting her collaboration with Blue Flame and leaving a negative impression on Mia.
Selene handed the prescription to Matthew, advising, âPlease go and fill this prescription.
If you have any concerns, donât hesitate to visit the clinic.
â
Matthew accepted the prescription and led Stella out.
She hung her head, overwhelmed by the thought of not being able to use her wrist, especially with the design deadline approaching.
Matthew sensed her despondency and held her close.
âYou can brainstorm ideas, and Iâll assist with the drawing.
Right now, the priority is to heal your wrist.
Do you want to be unable to hold a pen for the rest of your life?â
Stella stared at him blankly for a moment before nodding in agreement reluctantly.
Matthew arranged for her to collect the prescribed medication and assured her, âWait here to pick up the medicine.
Iâll go get the car.
â
Stella agreed without hesitation.
However, as they stepped out of the clinic, Matthewâs expression turned serious.
He made a call to Fernando.
âInvestigate why the hospital where Farris works failed to detect the condition of Stellaâs wrist.
â He spoke with a stern tone, his anger palpable.
Sensing the gravity of the situation, Fernando replied with trepidation, âYes, Iâll initiate the investigation right away.
â
Before ending the call, Matthew issued a stern warning.
âIf you discover that Farris is at fault, file a formal complaint against him.
â
As evening fell, Stella joined Matthew in the study.
She presented her completed design to him.
âThis dress was inspired by the long white one you previously gifted me.
Ultimately, Iâve chosen the sheen of pearls as its central theme.
