When Love Comes Late

She called out to him several times, but there was no response.

Stella knew they couldn’t delay any longer.

She quickly called Cordell for assistance.

At the same time, she noticed Lindsay taking out a bottle of medicine and preparing some pills for Matthew.

Stella seized Lindsay’s wrist and demanded coldly, “What are these for?”

“These were prescribed by doctors in Sothrea for Matthew after his injury.

They’re the only thing that helps,” Lindsay retorted, pulling her hand away.

Stella sensed there was more to the story.

She immediately objected, “No.

We’re taking him to the hospital.

He can take those pills if the doctor approves.

”

Lindsay responded impatiently and sarcastically, “You might have time to wait, but Matthew doesn’t.

See how much pain he’s in? He might die before we even get to the hospital.

Stella, what are you really trying to do?”

Stella opened her mouth to respond but fell silent, as Matthew indeed appeared to be in severe distress.

Lindsay glanced at Stella dismissively and said, “Why would I harm Matthew? Seriously? If you really don’t trust me, go ahead and test the rest of the pills!”

Lindsay’s tone was defiant, showing no sign of worry.

Stella examined her closely.

Although she found nothing overtly suspicious, her instincts told her something was amiss.

After a moment of consideration, Stella grabbed the bottle from Lindsay.

“What are you doing?” Lindsay asked, her voice filled with anxiety.

Stella didn’t reply.

Instead, she scrutinized the label on the bottle, yet nothing seemed amiss.

Lindsay said deliberately, “What’s wrong? Do you see anything unusual?”

Stella remained firm in her gut feeling.

She insisted, “Regardless, we’re going to the hospital first.

I won’t let him take these pills just Like that.

”

“I’ve told you they were prescribed by doctors.

What are you accusing me of? Do you want to be responsible for harming Matthew?” Lindsay posed the question sharply.

Stella’s bottled-up frustration finally erupted into anger.

She couldn’t contain it any longer.

She fixed Lindsay with a cold stare and said, “I am Matthew’s wife.Original from NôvelDrama.Org.

I have every right to be suspicious of a woman who suddenly gives my husband unknown pills!”

Lindsay paused for a moment, her heart seething with anger.

Before she could react, Stella had already maneuvered her aside and returned to Matthew’s side.

Stella gently cradled Matthew’s face in her hands, her eyes filled with concern, her voice tinged with urgency.

“Matthew? Come on, focus on me, clear your mind.

Don’t worry, Cordell is on his way.

Matthew… keep looking at me…”

From her wheelchair, Lindsay watched the scene unfold, her resentment deepening.
