Chapter 461

Vermont paused before he continued, “It’s possible that your mother-in-law only passed away before her oxygen supply was disrupted.”

The look on Keegan’s face turned ugly. Do you know who they are?”

“No idea. However, I’m sure that they didn’t do that for money because they left right after knowing that we were going to call the cops. The surveillance cameras in the hospital probably captured their faces, and we’ll know who’s behind everything once we have a look at the footage.”

Vermont paused again. “By the way, where have you been these days? I couldn’t even call you. What were you doing? What about Aldor? Did he come back with you?”

“I was helping a friend of mine,” Keegan said flatly.

“What is it about? Why so secretive?”

”My friend’s identity is sensitive information,” Keegan answered.

Vermont stopped asking more questions after hearing that.

‘Sensitive information, huh? That person is either from the border or one of the boss man’s friends. I’d better stay out of this.’

“How sensitive?”

Marshall’s voice could be heard. Then, he continued, “Do you have any friends that we don’t know?”

Keegan pursed his lips and kept quiet.

Vermont teased Marshall, “You left us for so many years, and it’s only normal for us to get ourselves some new friends. Are you jealous?”

Marshall then turned around and said to Keegan, “Stella has not been in a good shape since a few days ago, and she even fainted on the day Ms.

Rainee passed away. You should pay more attention to her these days.”

Keegan clenched his fists and felt a dull pain in his chest.

The cremation was done at one in the afternoon.

They started making their way to the cemetery at half past one.

Stella held Rainee’s ashes in her arms.

Keegan finally became smarter after what Vermont said to him previously.

He went to Stella and took the urn from Stella’s hand and said softly, “Let me help you with that.”

Stella did not resist it. Then, someone passed her Rainee’s memorial portrait, and she took it.

Keegan and Stella sat in the same car, but none of them spoke.

Keegan wanted to start a conversation, but he had no idea what to say to Stella.

Stella did not look like she wanted to talk to him at all.

He would rather she at least argue with him.

It was just too quiet. Not only did she not speak, but her eyes were not red at all too.

Keegan began to feel uncomfortable in this depressed atmosphere.

The car finally arrived at the cemetery.

Cordelia did not get off the car. She stood too long in the memorial hall just now, and her legs hurt. However, she told Baldwin to remind Keegan to do the right things.

After all, it was Keegan’s first time going through something like this, and she did not want him to look discourteous just because he was unaware of the etiquette.

The burial went rather smoothly, but the only bad part of it was the noise of Albert wailing at the side.

He sounded disgusting and pretentious.

Stella stood up when the urn was covered with the last pile of dirt.

She turned around and looked at Keegan with a nonchalant face.

A gust of wind blew by, and Keegan heard Stella saying, “Keegan Kane, let’s get a divorce.
