Chapter 1652
Stella hesitated momentarily, then asked in a low voice," Where are you?"
Aldor quickly arranged a meeting spot.
After freshening up a bit, Stella headed out. Concerned for her well-being, Wenham insisted that their driver
accompany her.
The place Aldor had chosen for their meeting was a cafe. It was 3:00 p.m. on a weekday, so the place was not
crowded.
Stella provided a room number to the owner, and they escorted her to the entrance of a private room where Aldor
was waiting.
Upon pushing the door open, she found Aldor sitting inside, accompanied by Ted.
Stella was momentarily stunned and closed the door behind her.
"Mrs. Kane." Aldor sounded like he had a cold, his voice somewhat hoarse. He also looked a little tired. However,
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtupon seeing Stella, he maintained his usual courtesy and warmth. He rose from his seat and pulled out the chair
opposite him, "Please, have a seat."
Stella set her bag down and sat across from him.
Stella's condition was better than Aldor had imagined. If she had been in a worse state, today would not have been
a good time to meet.
Stella did not initiate the conversation. She saw that Aldor was not alone. He had brought Ted, Keegan's old
classmate and a lawyer, 'So handing me the phone was just an excuse. It seems like Aldor has something else to
discuss with me.'
As expected, Aldor spoke up, "Mrs. Kane, you're already familiar with Mr. Eldrich, so there's no need for formal
introductions. I'll leave it to him to provide the details."
Stella looked at Ted, who had a cold and distant expression. He opened the file in front of him and then passed it
over to Stella, stating, "Before the tragedy, Keegan had requested me to draft this document. Please take a look."
Stella took a breath, "Is it a will?"
"No. He didn't ask me to draft a will," Ted said lightly. "It's an authorization agreement."
Stella did not quite understand what that meant.
"I can give you a summary if you don't want to read it. A month ago, Keegan designated me as a third party to
draft this authorization agreement. It essentially states that in the event that he's unable to oversee significant
decisions for the company due to unforeseen circumstances, you will step in on his behalf until his return or... until
he is officially declared deceased. His assets will be distributed according to his will." Ted explained.
This sudden news left Stella feeling a bit disoriented, 'Why would Keegan create such an agreement? Did he have a
feeling that something would happen?'
"Did he say anything else?" Stella asked with a hint of urgency.
Ted shook his head, "No. But when we signed the agreement, the proceedings were recorded on video. Would you
like to see it?"
Stella nodded, her eyes slightly red.
Ted took out his phone and played the video of the signing.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe had not lied to her; the video was an unedited recording of the signing, kept as evidence in case of any future
complications. Keegan did not even spare a glance at the camera. He had spoken candidly, with Aldor by his side
the whole time, bearing witness to the entire process while Ted drafted the document.
After the document was printed and signed, Keegan said, ” Don't force her if she doesn't want to take charge of the
company. Hopefully, it's just me being overly anxious."
Stella closed her eyes, replaying the entire incident in her mind.
‘Everyone keeps saying that it was all an accident. But if the attacker truly mistook Keegan for Marshall, how did
Keegan have a premonition about it?' She thought, a chill running down her spine.
Stella pressed her lips together, unable to speak for a long time.
"Mrs. Kane," Aldor whispered, "If you don't want to be involved, you can choose not to sign the document."
Stella asked, "What will happen if I refuse?"
Aldor remained silent before saying, "There'll be another meeting at the company in three days. If Mr. Kane isn't
there, they'll appoint someone to take over our team, and everyone's efforts will be in vain. Even if he were to
return, he'd need time to heal from his injuries. He won't have the capacity to compete with his uncle in the
immediate future."
