When Love Comes Late

With thoughtful arrangements made, he turned and departed.

Stella watched him leave and frowned in silence.

Miley arrived at the bar just as Sanford was exiting.

They exchanged silent looks.

Sanford nodded and smiled in greeting; then he continued on his way without saying anything.

Miley didn’t dwell on the encounter.

She entered, searching for Stella.NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.

Spotting Stella, she beamed, hurried over, and sat down next to her.

Without a word, Miley grabbed a glass of wine and took a large sip, and then exhaled sharply before saying, “I know why Matthew has been acting so strangely.

”

Stella’s heart raced.

She quickly said, “Why?”

Miley took a moment to compose herself, locked eyes with Stella, and said solemnly, “Be ready.

”

Stella’s anxiety heightened.

She clutched Miley’s hand, furrowed her brow, and insisted, “Tell me!”

Miley then revealed the truth, saying, “Matthew has lost his memory!”

“What?” Stella was stunned, disbelief written all over her face.

“But he remembers everyone.

How could he lose his memory?”

“I’m not sure.

Neville told me,” Miley explained hastily.

“Neville also mentioned that Matthew said his last memory of you is from around the time of demanding a divorce from you.

”

Stella reflected for a moment and responded, “When I had just returned from abroad, he interacted with me as Maverick, right? Back then, he sometimes mentioned wanting a divorce.

”

Miley nodded and said, “Yes, that means he doesn’t recall anything that happened between you afterward.

”

Stella was speechless, overwhelmed by the revelation.

How was it possible? How could Matthew only forget their journey of falling in love?

After Matthew returned from Sothrea, Stella sensed a change in his demeanor.

He seemed reminiscent of the time they were getting a divorce.

The more Stella pondered it, the more inconceivable it seemed, leaving her speechless.

Miley, brimming with excitement, said, “Cordell plans to conduct a thorough examination on Matthew.

Once they confirm his memory loss, they’ll know precisely how to address it.

”

Miley let out a sigh of relief and smiled.

“I’ve told you already.

Matthew loves you deeply.

He wouldn’t consider divorce without a significant reason.

”

Stella remained quiet, her eyes empty and glazed.

That was when Miley realized something was amiss.

She asked with concern, “What’s wrong, Stella? Aren’t you relieved? Matthew hasn’t fallen for someone else.

He’s merely forgotten the details of your relationship temporarily.
