Matthew paused for a moment.

“Where’s Stella? I’d like to pick her up and head home.

“She’s asleep.

You can pick her up tomorrow when she wakes up.

Glancing at the peacefully sleeping Stella, Miley lowered her voice.

“If there’s nothing else, I’ll hang up now.

“She hasn’t fully recovered yet.

We have maids at home to take care of her, which will help her recover faster.

Plus, I’d rather not postpone resolving the misunderstanding with her until tomorrow.

Miley fell silent, considering his words.

After a brief pause, she relented.

“Alright, you can come over now.

Less than five minutes after they ended the call, Matthew arrived.

Standing at the door, he asked softly, “How’s Stella been since she left the hospital? Is she still running a fever?”

“She’s fine now.

“Did you really have a hand in Farris’ suspension?”

Matthew frowned, clearly perplexed by her inquiry.

Miley didn’t mince words.

“Stella is furious about this.

She holds her grandpa in very high regard.

Farris saved her grandpa’s life, making him a hero in her eyes.

Matthew regarded her with an inscrutable expression.

After a few moments of contemplation, he finally admitted, “I had no involvement in Farris’ suspension.

”

Miley let out a sigh of relief but couldn’t help but harbor some doubt.

“But Stella claimed that you confessed to it.

”

Matthew clarified, “We were both caught up in anger at the time.

She’ll soon learn the truth.

I hope you can help her understand in the meantime, or she might misconstrue things.

”

Miley nodded and offered some insight.

“Stella, despite her grandpa’s kindness after adoption, still grapples with a lack of security.
