Chapter 964:
Melany was taken aback by his words. Even after seeing the photos today, Colton still thought she was just causing trouble?
Meanwhile, Keanu stood firmly in front of Allison.
He had often been disappointed in his grandson, but now, for the first time, he found something to respect in Colton.
âColtonâs right. Stop this nonsense.â Keanuâs voice grew more forceful as his emotions settled. âIf you two donât apologize, youâll shame the Stevens family!â
âKeanu, you expect me, an elder, to apologize to a younger person?â Lindy asked, her voice brimming with disbelief.
âWhat does being an elder have to do with anything?â Keanuâs cold gaze cut through her protest. âWhen you realize youâve wrongly accused someone, you should apologize.â
He didnât stop there. His tone turned sharp, his patience clearly worn thin. âDonât think Iâm unaware of your underhanded methods. Iâve ignored them before, but now that youâre targeting Allison? Donât blame me for freezing your bank cards.â
The room fell silent. The doctor and household staff bowed their heads, unwilling to involve themselves in the brewing storm.
Lindyâs face turned ashen.
Keanu was actually going to freeze her bank cards?

His determination to stand up for Allison left Lindy no room for argument.
She clenched her fists, her neck flushing red with suppressed anger.
After a long pause, she ground out through gritted teeth, âI apologize.â
She turned to Allison, forcing a stiff bow. âIâm sorry. I shouldnât have believed the lies and wrongly accused you.â
Melany, watching this unfold, realized that resistance was futile. Reluctantly, she followed suit, her palms clenched so tightly that her nails bit into her skin. âIâm sorry too. I shouldnât have judged you without knowing the truth, Allison.â
In fact, she wanted nothing more than to tear Allison apart!
Despite their apologies, Allison didnât even look at them.
Her focus remained on Keanu. âKeanu, please rest well. Iâm relieved to see youâre alright today.â Without waiting for a response, she added, âIâll take my leave now. Iâll come visit you next time when I have time.â
Keanuâs eyes turned red with emotion.
He knew Allisonâs stubbornness all too well.
No matter what happened, even if Colton returned to her, there was no turning back for her.
âAlright,â he whispered hoarsely.
Just as she turned to leave, Colton stepped forward.
âIâll walk you out,â he said, his tone carrying an unspoken weight. âI never got to thank you properly for what happened in Fleeingland.â
