When Love Comes Late

Oliver pursed his lips and said nothing.

It was already half past seven when Matthew arrived at Joyful Restaurant.

Earlier, his wife had texted him saying that they needed to talk face-to-face.

Maverick was thirty minutes late already.

Frowning, she took her phone and read the message she had sent him earlier.

There was no error in the address and time.

Why wasn’t he here yet after agreeing to come? Was he standing her up yet again?

What was his deal? Didn’t he want to meet the woman he was married to? Did he already hate her even before they met?

As her mind was filled with several questions, Stella felt a little depressed.
