Chapter 878
When Love Comes Late
She didnât waver for long, perhaps because the answer had always been clear in her mind.
With a firm nod, Stella declared, âOkay, IâUL make Prosper Bay my home.
From now on, this is where we belong.
â
The following day, Stella and Matthew made their way to the factory.
Nestled in the suburbs, their drive took nearly an hour.
The factory owner courteously prepared a small table and two chairs for them.
âPlease make yourselves comfortable here.
Iâll notify you if any issues arise during production.
â
âThank you, please proceed with your work,â Stella responded graciously.
She scanned the factory with a spark of excitement in her eyes.
Despite the clamor of machinery, the space was remarkably clean.
Reminiscent of her childhood visits to factories with Clint, she felt a wave of nostalgia.
With the workers busily crafting her sample garment, Stella eagerly revisited her design sketches, making refinements.
Out of the corner of her eye, she noticed Matthew, in his crisp suit, looked somewhat out of place on the small chair.
This incongruity brought a smile to her face.
Looking up at Matthew, she offered, âIf youâre uncomfortable, youâre welcome to wait in the car.
â
Matthew shook his head.
âNo, Iâm quite enjoying myself here.
â
Comforted by his words, Stella relaxed into her work.
However, her focus was soon interrupted as several workers approached, bombarding her with questions about the garmentâs production.
âStella, are there any adjustments needed?
âAnd here⦠Please make a decision as soon as possible.
We need to move quickly with the tasks at hand.
â
Surrounded by the workers and slightly overwhelmed, Stella found herself struggling to respond.
Matthew, noticing her dilemma, stepped in with a stern expression, addressing each question efficiently.
âThe model is fine as it is.
No need for water treatment.
Just follow the design specifications.
â
With their queries answered, the workers dispersed.
Matthewâs intervention brought a sense of relief to Stella, steadying her amidst the bustling environment.
