Chapter 244
When Aldor returned, Marshall entered the room with him.
Stella was shocked when she saw Marshall, “Mr. Moore, what are you doing here?”
“I’ve got an appointment with Keegan to discuss some work matters,” Marshall was as gentle
as ever.
He continued, “You’re… Waiting for Keegan to get off work?”
“Who wants to wait for him to get off work?” Stella pouted.
She did not want to discuss the bothersome matters between her and Keegan, so she changed. the topic.
“You two still have work-related interactions?”
“Sort of.”
Marshall did not go into detail since it was work-related.
Aldor looked at the text message on his phone. Then, he lifted his head and said, “Mrs. Kane, please keep Mr. Moore company. I need to go to the conference room.”
Stella waved her hand, “Go ahead.”
As Aldor left, Stella handed Marshall a cup of tea, “Have some tea, Mr. Moore.”

“Do
cup.
you not like tea? Shall I make you some coffee instead?” Stella asked.
“There’s no need. It’s not that I don’t like tea; I often have it when I’m stopping myself from smoking. However, drinking too much of it leads to insomnia at night, so I’m controlling my intake.”
“You’re quitting smoking?”
Marshall nodded, “The doctor told me to.”
Stella seemed to agree with his statement, “Quitting smoking is good for your body. I heard Kee- My husband say your illness improved after staying abroad for a few years. Since you already have a weak constitution, you should quit smoking.”
Marshall was astonished, “Keegan told you about me?”
