When Love Comes Late
Chapter 2059

In the hospital corridor, Alissa animatedly shared details of her times with Bella to Stella, who listened intently, nodding and smiling in response.

A few steps away, Lindsay, who was accompanying Joann for a physical examination, paused and watched, her gaze fixed on Stella’s cheerful expression.

Joann followed her gaze and noticed Stella.

Despite the unfolding scene, Joann had commitments to keep-she had promised Felix to facilitate a connection between him and Lindsay, and she was also keen on maintaining a favorable impression with Bennett.

She resolved not to stir any further trouble with Stella, especially considering Stella’s pregnancy, which could complicate matters if any stress-induced issues arose and came to Matthew’s attention.

Weighing these considerations quietly, Joann decided it was best to avoid confrontation.

She discreetly shifted her position to obstruct Lindsay’s view of Stella and gently nudged her.

“It’s almost time for our appointment.

Come on, let’s go.

”

Lindsay’s brow furrowed.

She was convinced that Joann had seen Stella.

Didn’t Joann dislike Stella and wish for her end at the earliest opportunity? What caused her sudden shift in behavior?

Lindsay was unhappy with Joann’s sudden change.

However, in these circumstances, Joann was the only ally she could count on.

Unwilling to sever their partnership, she suppressed her frustration.

Their thoughts were clearly misaligned.

Lindsay pointed out carefully, saying, “I think that’s Stella over there.

I should go over and greet them.

If I don’t, Grandma will hear of it and scold me for not being friendly enough.

”

No matter how skillfully Lindsay masked her intentions, Joann could see right through her.

Caught in a bind, Joann clutched her stomach and said, “No, I really feel awful.

Let’s go to the doctor first.

We can greet them after I’ve been seen.

”

Lindsay examined Joann, trying to discern if she was feigning her discomfort.

She was too afraid to take a chance, worried about what might happen to Joann.

What a waste!

In her thoughts, Lindsay cursed her but still prioritized taking Joann to see a doctor.

After the medical check-up and receiving Joann’s medication, they realized Stella had already left.

This made Lindsay very angry.

Meanwhile, Joann let out a relieved sigh.

However, just as they approached the hospital gate, Stella reappeared.

Joann’s eyebrows knitted together.

Before she could react, Lindsay was already gripping her arm, pulling her forward to meet Stella.

“Stella, what a surprise to see you here!”
