When Love Comes Late

“Would you like me to prepare a hot bath for you?” she asked, concern filling her tone as she glanced at the droplets of water on his hair.

“Just leave me alone.

” Taking a look at Stella, he ordered, “But for her, bring a bath towel and an umbrella.

”

After giving out his orders, he went upstairs.

Erin rushed off, leaving Stella all alone in the living room.

She looked around the room, curiosity growing within her.

“Thank you.

“Erin.

”

Stella’s and Erin’s heads jerked his way immediately.

“That is enough,” Matthew said, as he stared at Erin with a cold expression.

Erin was quaking in her boots now.

Her face was red with horror.

Matthew turned to look at Stella and said coldly, “A security guard will take you home soon.

Wait in the living room.

”

Stella nodded obediently.

Matthew cast a glance at them and went upstairs.

It wasn’t until he went out of sight that Stella finally resumed breathing.

She took deep breaths while patting her chest.
