When Love Comes Late
Chapter 2060

Trapped by Lindsay’s insistence, Joann reluctantly went along but she really wanted to find an excuse to leave quickly.

She knew if anything were to happen to Stella or her baby while there, she would be the prime suspect.

At that moment, Joann wanted nothing to do with Lindsay.

Lindsay gripped Joann’s arm firmly, leaving her unable to maintain any distance from Stella.

Stella gave a cold response to the friendly Lindsay, only saying, “Yeah.

”

Despite Stella’s cool manner, Lindsay didn’t back down.

She continued the conversation and even asked about Bella’s health.

“Are you taking Bella for a reexamination today? After such a big accident, it’s important to take good care of her.

”

Stella was familiar with Lindsay’s insincere concern and remained distant, even as Lindsay seemed genuinely worried.

She glanced at her watch.

“Is there anything else? We are in a hurry.

”

Her reluctance to engage was clear.

Lindsay paused, surprised by the dismissal.

Joann quickly interjected, saying, “We were just passing by.

We saw you and thought we should say hello.

We’re actually on our way out.

”

Stella stayed silent, grabbed Bella’s arm, and walked away.

“Come on, Lindsay.

” Joann was ready to leave, and she wanted Lindsay to come along.

However, Lindsay remained still.

She stared at Stella’s back with a look of deep hatred and intentionally pushed away Joann’s hand.

Caught off guard, Joann stumbled and started falling toward Stella.

At that moment, Joann’s heart raced.

She tried to stop herself, but her legs wouldn’t obey her.

She crashed right into Stella’s back.

Stella hit the ground quickly.

“Stella!” Alissa and Bella shouted together.

They rushed to Stella’s side and lifted her up, only then seeing the blood on the ground.

When Matthew rushed into the hospital, he found Stella still undergoing treatment in the consulting room.

Bella had urgently called him, informing him of Stella’s fall, but had left out the details in her distress.

Matthew’s face darkened with concern as he scanned the corridor, his voice tinged with urgency.

“Who did this?”

Joann, overwhelmed by the gravity of the situation, remained silent, unable to confess.

Lindsay, too, refused to step forward.

Bella, preoccupied with concern for Stella, had no energy to address the unfolding drama.
