Nathan had spent five years searching for Stella, his fated bride, the only woman he would ever marry. Little did he know her loyal dog was right beside him, yet he failed to recognize it. Max barked at him the moment it saw him, tugging fiercely at his trouser leg to drag him toward her hospital bed. But Nathan mistook the faithful hound for a stray begging for money and kicked it away. He had no idea he’d cast aside the only messenger sent by his beloved. Then one stormy night, Max clamped its jaws on his pants and pulled him to the hospital steps. At last, he spotted unconscious Stella. Dropping his black umbrella, he rushed toward her, shouting, “Stella!” They were reunited.
