Chapter 542

Stella's heart abruptly sank.

’Grandma looked pretty healthy when I saw her at the funeral. Why's she suddenly not able to make it?'

she wondered.

She had a tense expression as she subconsciously tightened her fists.

Since Stella's mother had just passed away, she was currently very sensitive toward the health of the

people around her.

Only people who had experienced such things understand how unpredictable life can be.

Keegan could not help but darken his expression slightly. Then, he said in a low voice, "I understand.

I'll be there immediately."

After he hung up the phone, he unbuckled his seatbelt and got out of the car.

He glanced at Stella and Marshall. Then, he turned to Aldor and said, "Stay here and wait for the

people from the insurance company to handle things.

I'll take a cab there."

Right after, he walked in the opposite direction at a hurried pace. Stella could not help but have her

heart in her mouth. She subconsciously called out to him. "Keegan!"

Keegan stopped walking. He turned to look at her with an indifferent gaze.

Stella pursed her lips and asked in a soft voice, "What happened to grandma?"

Keegan met her eyes and said in a serious tone, "I'm not sure either. If you want to know, we can go

there together."

Stella dug her fingers into her palms.

'Keegan and I are already divorced. Is it appropriate to go at a time like this?' she wondered.

Keegan waited for a few seconds. A hint of disappointment briefly flashed across his eyes when he

saw her remain still.

"I'll be leaving first," he said indifferently.

Stella's throat closed momentarily.

'I can be oblivious when something happens to anyone in the Kane family. But if it's grandma, I can't

turn a blind eye when I know something's happened.

'Madam Kane has been the kindest to me in the entire Kane family, so I can't ignore my conscience

and pretend I didn't hear Keegan's words,'

thought Stella

That was why she called out to Keegan the moment he turned around and said, "Wait for me."

Then, she turned to Marshall. "Mr. Moore, I'll treat you to a meal another day. I’ll go visit grandma first."

Marshall softened his expression and said in a low voice, "Go ahead.

Contact me if anything happens."

Stella breathed a sigh of relief and thanked him. Then, she ran after Keegan.

Marshall darkened his gaze as he watched the two leave. Moments later, he finally withdrew his gaze.

Aldor smiled apologetically. ’I'm terribly sorry for holding up your time, Mr. Moore."

Marshall laughed. "It's fine. I've got time."

Aldor's smile faltered. For some reason, he understood another meaning from Marshall's words.

'He's got time to repair the car. He's also got time for her,' he thought.

Throughout the process of waiting for a cab, Keegan did not speak.

Stella was worried about Cordelia's condition, so she was naturally not in the mood to speak either.

Not long after, a cab pulled over.

The driver stuck out his head and asked where they were going.

Keegan told him the address. The driver said he could send them.

However, he had another customer onboard whom he was sending to the college town, so he asked if

they minded.

The college town was on the way to Keegan's grandparents' residence, so there was no need to make

a detour. Keegan agreed.

After they got in the car, they noticed a girl in her 20s in the front seat. She looked like a student.

The temperature today was rather high. By noon, the sun had gotten even hotter. The car reeked of the

odor of leather and motor oils released when under high heat. It smelled awful.

Stella felt sick when she smelled this odor, so she closed her eyes. After she leaned into the seat and

rested her eyes, she felt slightly better.

Keegan looked at her from the corner of his eyes after she shut her eyes.

There were faint dark circles under her eyes.

'She's been busy after the funeral, so she's probably very tired,' he thought.
