Chapter 1095

Mrs. Hall Sr.’s words left Trevor speechless. ’People are working there, grandma. We can’t just come and go as we please,” he lied.

“Why not?” Mr. Hall Sr. frowned. “Aren’t you the boss? Can’t you take us there tomorrow? What kind of boss are you?”

Trevor did not know what to reply. Seeing that her grandson could not speak, despite usually being eloquent, Mrs. Hall Sr. sensed that something was wrong. “Tell me the truth, Trevor. Did something happen to Stella?” she solemnly asked.

Trevor opened his mouth, but no words came out. His uncle and aunt were on the sidelines, and their faces did not look so good. Meanwhile, Wenham’s expression looked even worse.

In the end, the old couple could not take it anymore. “What’s wrong with Stella? What happened? Why are you all hiding the truth from us?!” Mr. Hall Sr. said in a trembling manner.

“Mom, dad, Stella is fine. She’s fine. She just encountered something at work, got tangled up, and couldn’t show up.”

After some careful questioning, the old couple found out about what happened to Stella on set. They were angry and distressed when they heard the news. Knowing that their granddaughter had been wrongly accused, they could not help but turn to Wenham and complain, “Didn’t you say that you have everything under control? How could something like this happen under your watch? Stella is clearly being framed here. Why has no one come forward and clear things up? Why is she reprimanded for something she didn’t do?”

Ashamed, Wenham stood there and continued being lectured by his parents. The old couple had treated him indifferently ever since he remarried after his ex-wife died. This was especially true for Mr.

Hall Sr., who would get annoyed from just looking at Wenham for too long.

Wenham tried to mend his relationship with his parents over the years, but it never worked. When he learned that his youngest daughter was alive, he invited them over. First, it was to meet her, and second, to fix their relationship. He did not expect the scandal to happen before the meeting took place.

Trevor could not bear to see Wenham being scolded by his elders at his age. So, he said in a low voice, “No one wanted this to happen. The company is trying its best to coordinate the next steps.

Stella is safe right now. There’s no need to worry.”

“How are we supposed to be at ease if we can’t even see her?” Mrs. Hall Sr. sighed.

Trevor thought about it, took out his phone, and sent a text to Keegan. Right after Keegan had put Stella to sleep, he noticed that his phone was vibrating, and he grabbed it to see Trevor’s message.

[How’s Stella?]

[She just fell asleep.]

‘Should I ask if they’re sleeping together or in separate beds? Ugh. On second thought, that’s a load of crap. Keegan had gone through a lot of trouble to get her there. There’s no way he’s going to keep things PG13. Then again, it’s not the time to settle scores right now…’

[Take a few pictures of her and send them to me.]

[What for?]

[Don’t act like you don’t know!] Trevor was not blind to Keegan’s change in attitude. He must have known about my connection to Stella. Otherwise, he would’ve fought me a long time ago.’

[My grandparents need to see that she’s okay to feel at ease. So, hurry up and take the pictures. If you don’t, I’ll go over there to fetch her.]

Keegan sneered when he saw the message. He then took several pictures of Stella sleeping and sent them to Trevor. [ Say hello to grandpa and grandma for me, brother-in-law.]

Trevor got goosebumps when he saw the last word. [Don’t boast. None of us see you as part of this family.]

Keegan did not reply.
