When Love Comes Late

Stella tried to dodge his eyes as she cleaned.

Her hands were stained with blood.

She was trying her very best to keep calm.

“Are you okay?” Matthew asked, in a very hoarse voice.

Stella was caught off guard, but she shook her head and admitted honestly, “No, not really.

”

She paused, then added, “However, I can’t leave you.

You’re my boss.

”

“Were you hurt?” Matthew asked, pressing his lips together.

“No.

My ankle just hurts a bit,” Stella said, shaking her head.

“Don’t forget to ice it when you return home,” Matthew said breezily.

They fell into silence.

When Matthew looked at the frightened but determined look on Stella’s face as she cleaned his wound, the drug medicine began to affect him again.

An inexplicable heat was surging through his body.

He suppressed the heat and grabbed the swab from her.

“I’m okay now.

You can leave, I’ll apply the rest myself.

”

Stella was shocked by his sudden change in attitude.

She opened her mouth to object, but was interrupted by him.

“It’s not your responsibility to deal with my wound.

You’re just an employee.

”

Stella was dazed a while before slowly withdrawing her hand.

Matthew was right.

It was her job to deal with the company’s PR crisis since she was his personal PR assistant.

She successfully prevented the crisis today, and that was all she had to do.

Staying to treat his wound was beyond her duty.

Seeing as Matthew could treat himself on his own, she decided he would be fine.

Stella nodded, forcing a smile.

“Okay, Mr.

Clark.

Rest well, I’ll head back now.

”

Opening the door, she was about to leave when she heard Matthew’s low and husky voice behind her.

“Inform Fernando to come back immediately.

”
