Chapter 720

Dahlia was annoyed that Keegan did not care about the Crosby family affairs but was being so

generous toward his ex-wife. 'Thank god they got divorced. Otherwise, Keegan would be even more

obsessed with that little minx. There wouldn't be a place for me in this household.'

Dahlia went to Cordelia's house early in the morning. The old lady was already very dissatisfied with

her for the birthday banquet, so she had stayed low that month. Apart from giving her condolences to

the guests who were injured on the day of the birthday banquet, Dahlia went to Cordelia's place to

admit her mistakes and apologize.

However, the old lady did not want to see her. Every time Dahlia came over, Cordelia would turn her

away, or give her the silent treatment.

Dahlia was able to marry into the Kane family because of her pregnancy and also her perseverance.

When she was pregnant, Cordelia did not approve of her, but Dahlia was patient and persistent. She

went to her house every day and brought her tea. She would ask about the old lady's well-being, clear

up the weeds around the house, and feed the horse and fish.

Mr. Kane Sr. was swayed by her actions. After some time, he realize that it was not easy for a single

mother to raise a child. Moreover, it would bring damage to both Dahlia and the Kane family's

reputation. The old man tried to persuade the old lady, and she finally budged in the end.

Now, Dahlia was trying to do the same thing thirty years later. She volunteered to fertilize the plants

and pluck the weeds when she arrived at Cordelia's home. Dahlia was so eager to marry into the Kane

family in the past that she did not mind any dirty work. However, she had been pampered by the Kane

family for so many years that she now disliked getting dirty or doing energy-consuming work. She even

questioned why Cordelia fertilized and weeded the large plot of land every week rather than enjoying

her retirement.

Dahlia said that she wanted to help with fertilizing the place, but when she was in the garden, she

called for the workers to put on multiple layers of masks and gloves for her.

There were many mosquitoes in the summer. So, Dahlia frowned as she dodged left and right in the

garden, holding a bucket filled with fertilizer. It took her a long time to fertilize only a few plants. The old

lady saw this scene from a long distance, but she ignored Dahlia. She took a pair of scissors and went

to the other side to pluck some tomatoes.

When Dahlia saw Cordelia, she immediately went up to her and said, ’ Mom, just ask the servants to do

this kind of unskilled labor."

The old lady avoided her grip and calmly said, "This is my vegetable garden, and I have to be the one

who tends to it. That way, I can keep an eye on any plants that need to be dealt with."

Although Cordelia was talking about her plants, Dahlia felt that she was referring to something more

than that. Her expression showed that she felt awkward. Then, she said in a low voice, "Mom, I went to

give my condolences to the guests who were injured at the birthday banquet yesterday. They have

almost fully recovered."

The old lady did not speak. Dahlia continued, "Mom, my friends have introduced me to a lot of wealthy

young girls. Since Keegan has been divorced for quite some time now, I think it's time for him to find a

new girlfriend. Our family is small; maybe you can feel more at ease if Keegan can extend the family

tree."

"Okay," the old lady said calmly without looking up. "I'm fine with anything as long as Keegan agrees.”

Dahlia stayed quiet. Since she could not convince Keegan, she wanted Cordelia to put some pressure

on him. But, she did not expect the old lady to throw the ball back at her.

Dahlia hoped that Keegan would find a wealthy heiress who could help control Keegan in his career

and help her with the Crosby family's business. Since Stella managed to make an opening for her plan,

Dahlia wanted to fill the hole.

"You know how stubborn Keegan can be. But, he listens to you, mom. I'm sure he’d agree with the plan

if you're the one who mentions it."

"How long has Keegan been divorced?" Cordelia lowered her gaze and asked.

Dahlia was startled when she heard that. "Almost two months," she replied.

"Two months. That means it's been almost two months since Rainee passed away. It would be

inappropriate for Keegan to find a new wife."

Dahlia frowned and said in a low voice, "Keegan has already divorced Stella. He doesn't need to

consider that anymore."

Cordelia gave her a cold look and said, "It's his business whether or not he deems it appropriate. Do

you have no conscience?"

Dahlia's face changed slightly. "What are you trying to say, Mom?"
