Chapter 460
Vermont immediately stopped the mortician. "Hold up, her son-in-law is here. Let him pay his last
respect!"
The morticians stopped.
Stella lifted her head.
Keegan was wearing a suit when he walked into the mourning hall with a grim face.
His eyes met with Stella's. Stella's gaze looked very nonchalant as if he was just a stranger to her.
Keegan could not help but feel a little crept out.
Vermont quickly approached Keegan and put a black armband around his right arm.
Cordelia said after seeing how Keegan just stood there. "Keegan, go on and pay your last respect to
your mother-in-law."
Dahlia went to him and gave him a stalk of white rose. She said softly, "Put it in the coffin."
Keegan recollected himself. He went to the coffin and placed the white rose in it.
Cordelia frowned after seeing what he did, but she kept quiet anyway.
Keegan was about to speak to Stella after doing so, but she turned away and said to the mortician,
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Please nail the coffin now."
Keegan pursed his lips.
The sound of nails getting hammered into the wood was the only thing that could be heard in the
spacious mourning hall, and Rainee bid her last farewell to this world when the last nail hit the coffin.
The whole cremation process was going to take some time, so Vermont made a reservation at a
restaurant nearby for the guests to eat something.
Most of the people who came to offer their condolences had left, and Cordelia was starting to get tired
too. She said something to Stella and went back to the car. She also shot his eldest grandson a glance
before she left.
Keegan went to Stella. He gulped and said, "My flight was delayed."
Stella ignored him as she turned around and said to Felicity, "Felicity, do you want to use the
washroom?"
Felicity did not want to go, but she changed her mind after glancing at the look on Stella and Keegan's
faces. "Sure."
Vermont frowned. "What? Didn't you just come back from the washroom? Is something wrong with your
bladder?"
‘What's wrong with this uncivilized woman? Can’t she tell that Keegan and Stella are in a fight? She'd
better not add fuel to the fire!"
Felicity's mouth twitched as she glared at Vermont. "Worry about yourself first!"
Then, she grabbed Stella's arm and left.
Vermont was speechless.
He then saw how Keegan stood there like a statue. He was about to console him, yet he could not stop
himself from roasting him.
"You're always very good at talking, no? Did you realize what you just said? What do you mean by your
flight was delayed? You were supposed to do anything you can to be at your mother-in-law's funeral on
time! You should show your wife that you're just as worried and upset as her, and not give her such a
horrible excuse for being late!
"Her mother just passed away and she's at the lowest point of her life. You should've done more to
show that you care if you're not going to hug her in your arms to make her feel better. That was her
biological mother and you're her husband! How could you just stand at the side after paying your last

Keegan paused. "I didn't know what to do at all."
Vermont's blood boiled. "You're the son-in-law! Did anyone tell you that Stella spent the entire night
praying for her mother yesterday?
Keegan kept quiet.
The Kane family had never held a funeral in more than twenty years, and he was not familiar with
funeral etiquette. Also, he had no idea what he was supposed to do as a son-in-law on an occasion like
this.
Dahlia told him to place the flower in the coffin, and he thought that it was everything he needed to do.
'Dahlia has attended so many funerals. I'm sure she knows very well what I was supposed to do.'
Keegan frowned and asked, "Did anything happen in these few days?"
"Yeah. A group of people went to your mother-in-law's ward and removed her oxygen tube while asking
Stella to pay something back. She called me and I went there with Marshall. Fortunately, we it made
there on time.
Those scums tried to hurt Stella, and the only reason I didn't break their arms was we were in the
hospital."
