Chapter 209
When they went in, Stella’s face was pale while she lay down on the couch. She struggled to a sitting position when she heard the noises.
Cordelia immediately said, “Don’t move, my good girl. You should just lie down.”
“Grandma”
Cordelia kindly
ld, “How are you? Are you feeling better?”
“I still feel nauseous. But, I feel a lot better than just now. I’m sorry that I made you
you worry.”
“It’s okay as long as you’re fine. I thought…” Cordelia paused for a moment before she sighed. “Forget it. Get well soon.”
While Cordelia was whispering to Stella, Dahlia suddenly received a message on her phone.
She lowered her head and took a look at it. She frowned slightly, and her eyes looked abruptly gloomy.
She then pursed her lips as she put her phone away. She stepped forward and said, “Mom, why don’t we send Stella back? The exhibition is ending soon anyway. And, you’ve been standing for a long time. You should go home and rest.”
Cordelia nodded. She turned her head to Keegan and said, “Help Stella get in my car. There’s a bed in my car. She’ll feel more comfortable lying down.”
Irene, as the host, asked Marshall to help her send them away after she expressed her sympathy.
Cordelia was old. She had a bad waist and knees. So, her car was designed to be exceptionally comfortable. But, at that moment, Stella could not enjoy this luxury.
Cordelia talked to Stella to make sure that she was fine. Stella felt touched but guilty. She even wanted to tell Cordelia the truth. But, just when she was about to say it, she then saw Cordelia handing her a sour lemon candy.
