Chapter 1718
“I’m fine,” Cordelia responded.
“Are you sure? You didn’t allow guests when Keegan was still missing. Baldwin mentioned you couldn’t get out of bed. Is that true?”
Cordelia chuckled, “I’m sure you know the truth behind that, Stella.”
Stella’s heart sank immediately. It seemed her suspicions were correct; Cordelia had been confined at that time.
The question now was whether it was Chandler’s decision or if Chandler and Dahlia had conspired together. >
Before Stella could say anything, Cordelia made a hushing gesture and put on the gloves, saying, ’Didn’t you talk to Keegan when you arrived?”
The mention of Keegan naturally evoked thoughts of his present connection with Jaylene, causing a twinge of discomfort in Stella’s heart.
“He has company. Why would I want to talk to him? He’ll just say something hurtful, and I’ll get mad.”
Cordelia sighed, ‘Not only does he not remember many things, but his temper has also changed a lot since he came back. It’s hard to say whether this is a blessing or a curse.’
Stella hesitated for a moment. Cordelia had already raised the topic without her probing. It seemed there was little she could ask.
After pondering for a while, she said, “Grandma, I’m sorry.”
Cordelia looked up at her.
Stella continued, “I’ve always wanted to apologize to you. It’s my fault for not holding onto Keegan at that time. If I had been clear-headed enough, I wouldn’t have let him let go. After the incident, I actually didn’t dare face you. T-Thank God he’s okay.”Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated For All Books Updates…
Cordelia fell silent for a moment before speaking, “It would be a lie to say that I was not disappointed. However, you are not to blame. You’ve done everything you could. I can’t place the responsibility on you just because Keegan didn’t come back at that time. I might not have done any better if I were in your position.
