Chapter 543

Keegan pursed his lips and said in a low voice, "Congratulations on winning the case today."

Stella smiled, but she did not open her eyes.

"You're probably very disappointed that I won, Mr. Kane. You've wasted so much attorney fees for

nothing and even had to pay compensation."

Keegan frowned. "What would I be disappointed about?"

Stella opened her eyes and glanced at him through half-opened eyelids.' You really spent a fortune to

hire Mr. Eldrich as your lawyer."

'Marshall said Ted Eldrich's attorney fees are really expensive. Besides, it's not like one can hire him

simply with money. He also considers his client's status. Bella may not be able to hire him, but Keegan

definitely can,' she thought.

At the thought of how the two exchanged pleasantries in the courtroom, Stella could not help but

darken her expression.

’Why is he putting on a show?' she thought.

"You think I paid money to hire Ted Eldrich?"

Stella glanced at Keegan. "Otherwise, why'd you come to the hearing? Mr. Kane, when you talk with

Mr. Eldrich, at least do it in private. Also, make your acting more realistic. You can't deny things just

because you lost the case."

Keegan was speechless.

However, Keegan became level-headed after hearing Stella's cynical words.

He started rethinking the things that had happened in the past two days. 'Stella is Dusk Galaxy, so

she's definitely not behind the photo incident. So who's the person who wanted me to come to this

hearing? And what's their objective?' he wondered.

Keegan froze and suddenly looked at Stella. She was looking at him coldly. There was a hint of

cynicism in her eyes.

'I think I know the person's objective behind asking me to come to this hearing. They wanted Stella to

think that I helped them with the lawsuit. They obviously achieved their objective based on Stella's

current gaze on me. Stella and I are currently already divorced, so there's a barrier between us. I'm

working hard to remove it. Yet, someone's increasing the barriers, causing me to never be able to

overcome them. Who is this person?' he wondered.

Keegan racked his brain for someone suspicious. Suddenly, he realized there were too many people

with this motive.

'Too many people are eager for Stella and me to get divorced. Too many are concerned about Stella,'

he thought again.

Keegan explained, "There's a misunderstanding here. I did not know you were involved in this lawsuit.

Ted and I are merely acquainted. In the courtroom, he only greeted me, and it wasn't because I hired

him."

Stella listened to him justify his actions before she finally said, "Why'd you show up at the hearing when

you don't know a thing?"

Keegan was silent. After a long while, he said, "Someone sent me a letter and asked me to attend."

Stella could no longer hold back the anger she had been holding in the entire day. "Keegan, shut up if

you're really just going to make excuses! You came just because of a letter? Then why didn't you

answer when I called you that many times when I got into a car accident? Is a letter more important

than your wi... ex-wife?"

Keegan was at a loss for words.

"I'm not lying to you."

Stella put on her earphones. She turned to look out the window and ignored him.

After the student got out of the car, the cab driver went straight to Keegan's grandparents' residence.

They got out of the car the moment they arrived at the estate. Baldwin was already waiting for them

behind the gates.

"Mr. Kane, Mrs. Kane."

Baldwin still addressed Stella the way he used to. However, Stella was anxious to know of Cordelia's

condition, so she did not dwell on how he addressed her. She asked in a low voice, "Baldwin, how's

grandma?”

Baldwin paused. He glanced at Keegan, who had an indifferent expression, before he pursed his lips

and said, "I'll take you two to see her."
