When had he been in her home?


    She scanned the room instinctively but found no sign of him, allowing her to exhale a sigh of relief.


    Regaining herposure, she promptly dialed Miley’s number, desperate for answers.


    Just as she hit call, a familiar ringtone echoed through the apartment, followed by the sound of a closing door.


    Exiting the kitchen, Ste found Miley walking in from outside.


    She hung up the phone and blurted out, “Miley, did you invite Matthew into our home? Did he cook all those dishes on the dining table?”


    When confronted with Ste’s relentless questioning, Miley looked away guiltily.


    Confronted by Ste’s skeptical gaze, Miley hesitated briefly before admitting, “I didn’t want Matthew toe either, but…”


    Sensing Ste’s growing discontent, Miley paused for a second, then went on, “Lately, he’s been either visiting you in the hospital oring here to pester me.


    He mentioned you haven’t been eating well, so he wanted to cook dinner for you.


    ”


    “Miley, how could you.


    “Don’t be angry, please.


    ” Miley hastily reassured Ste.


    “I honestly didn’t want him in our home either.All content is property ? N?velDrama.Org.

    Catching Ste’s softened expression, Miley led her to the refrigerator and opened the door.


    Inside, a bounty of fresh vegetables, meats, and fruits awaited.


    She and Miley rarely dined at home, and they didn’t stock an abundance of food ingredients in the fridge.


    Ste looked at Miley in confusion.

    “Why do we have all this food?”


    With a sigh, Miley exined, “Matthew had these delivered.


    He knew you’ve been stressed and not eating well in the hospital.


    He wanted you to have whatever you felt Like eating when you got home.


    ”


    Ste clenched her fists, unable to find the words.


    Miley sensed Ste’s inner turmoil but also recognized Matthew’s genuine concern for her.


    She remained determined to assist the two in resolving their conflict to the best of her ability.


    “Honestly, aside from hiding his identity, Matthew has been good to you.


    ”


    Ste remained silent, yet her reaction wasn’t as hostile as before when Matthew was mentioned.


    Pushing gently, Miley advised, “You once told me Matthew treated you well.


    Perhaps what you both need is an open conversation.


    Regardless of the oue, you should at least hear him out.
