Stella smiled.
“I’m sorry. I’ve been busy with work recently, and I didn’t even pick you up from the hospital. Are you feeling better now? I brought you some nourishing food.”
“It’s not a big deal. Seeing you again has already improved my condition.” Lucia led Stella to her seat. The more Lucia observed Stella, the more she Liked her.
But knowing that Stella was planning to divorce Matthew, Lucia couldn’t help but feel concerned.
As Stella put away the nourishing food, she noticed the worry on Lucia’s face.
After a brief silence, she asked, “Mrs. Clark, is there something you’d like to discuss with me today?”
After hesitating for a moment, Lucia decided to be straightforward.
“Stella, I heard that you’re planning to divorce Maverick. Can you tell me why? Did he do something wrong? If he did, I can help teach him a lesson.”
It was indeed about the divorce, and Stella had expected this question. She replied honestly, “Mrs. Clark, it’s not Maverick’s fault. You know that we’ve been married for a year, but we haven’t lived together or spent much time as a couple. Continuing like this wouldn’t be beneficial to either of us.”
She lowered her gaze and continued, “When I visited you at the hospital, I was already contemplating a divorce. However, I didn’t want to burden you with this matter during your recovery, so I chose to keep it to myself.”
“If it’s because you haven’t lived together, Maverick-” Lucia began, wanting to reassure her that they would soon live together, but Stella cut her off.
“Sorry, I’ve already decided on a divorce,” Stella asserted.

“I’ve realized that I have feelings for someone else, and I don’t want to complicate matters for Maverick or myself.”
“What?” Lucia exclaimed in surprise.
Realizing she had overreacted, she composed herself and asked cautiously, “Stella, can you tell me who you’ve fallen in love with?
Is it someone you work with?”

Stella hesitated for a moment and then confessed, “I’m sorry. I know I haven’t divorced Maverick yet, so I shouldn’t have developed feelings for someone else. But I can’t control my heart.”
She clasped her hands tightly and continued, “Please don’t ask me any more about this. I’ll apologize to Maverick personally for this situation. I’m willing to relinquish all my assets to expedite our divorce.”
“Stella…” Lucia had guessed the reason for their divorce, but she didn’t expect it to be this.
Stella’s revelation left Lucia speechless.
Stella raised her head and smiled at Lucia.
“Mrs. Clark, don’t worry.
Even if I divorce Maverick, I will still treat you as an elder. You can come to me if you need anything.”
After a moment, Lucia finally spoke.
