Chapter 738
Stella was startled momentarily.
‘Isn't he at the office? Did he teleport here?' she wondered.
Before she could respond, Jaylene followed behind him and said, "Marshall, Ms.Jewell."
Stella froze and looked at Jaylene.
Then, she glanced at a nervous- looking Keegan, and her gaze darkened slightly.
Marshall explained, "Stella is fine.Someone else got hurt."
Then Keegan saw Leighton, who had gotten scalded.
He felt a little relieved knowing Stella was not hurt.He wanted to say something, but the car downstairs was ready.
So Stuart told everyone to make way and send Leighton to the hospital first.
Stella withdrew her hand.
Then, she followed them with a dark expression.
Marshall wanted to run after her but was stopped by Keegan.
"What happened?" Keegan asked in a low voice.
Jaylene also chimed in, "Marshall, what's going on?"
Marshall glanced at the two.
"Aurora barged into the room just now and splashed boiling water onto Stella.Mr.Hall shielded her, so his back got scalded."
Keegan had a dark expression.
‘No wonder Aurora had such a panicked expression when she entered the room just now.If someone hadn't shielded Stella, she would've been the one with blisters right now," he thought.
Keegan subdued his trembling heart.
Then, he lifted his head and gazed at Marshall, "How did Aurora know that you guys were in the room next door?"
‘There are plenty of upscale restaurants in Rivera, and Cotton Rose Restaurant isn't even one of the best among them.
Besides, even if we chose the same restaurant coincidentally, what're the chances of choosing rooms next to each other when there are dozens of them? I don't know calculus, but I know about probability.
Something can be justified as coincidental if it happens once or twice.
