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.

“Mrs.

Clark, your wrist nerve is damaged.

”

“How serious is it? Could I recover?” Stella couldn’t 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.

“Don’t be anxious.

Thankfully, you came for a reexamination at the earliest time.

With the right medication and rest, you should recover soon,” Selene reassured her.

“In the short term, it’s best to minimize the use of your right hand.

”

Stella’s anxiety deepened.

She hadn’t 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, “Please go and fill this prescription.

If you have any concerns, don’t hesitate to visit the clinic.

”

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.

“You can brainstorm ideas, and I’ll 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?”

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, “Wait here to pick up the medicine.

I’ll go get the car.

”

Stella agreed without hesitation.

However, as they stepped out of the clinic, Matthew’s expression turned serious.

He made a call to Fernando.

“Investigate why the hospital where Farris works failed to detect the condition of Stella’s wrist.

” He spoke with a stern tone, his anger palpable.

Sensing the gravity of the situation, Fernando replied with trepidation, “Yes, I’ll initiate the investigation right away.

”

Before ending the call, Matthew issued a stern warning.

“If you discover that Farris is at fault, file a formal complaint against him.

”

As evening fell, Stella joined Matthew in the study.

She presented her completed design to him.

“This dress was inspired by the long white one you previously gifted me.

Ultimately, I’ve chosen the sheen of pearls as its central theme.

”
