Chapter 164

Dahlia, Aurora, and Albert surrounded Keegan’s hospital bed. There was no place for Stella at all.

Vermont said, “Aurora, go get some warm water Keegan hasn’t taken his medicine yet.

Aurora frowned. “Isn’t someone standing there 3*

“Hey! You.”

Vermont wanted to say something else, but Stella took the empty glass and said flatly, “I’ll do it ”

Stella just did not want to stay here with these people As soon as the door was closed, Dahlia asked, “What happened last night “Nothing,” Keegan said succinctly “I ran into a few troublemakers while drinking, and there was a conflict “What kind of conflict can hurt others in this way? Who hurt you? Where are they now “Mom, I’ll handle this by myself So leave it alone Dahlia was upset “How can I leave it alone? Look how seriously you were hurt. It happened last night, and I only found out at noon today’ If someone can take good care of you, I can rest assured. But you stay in the hospital alone for the whole night Nobody is taking care of you How can you make me feel at ease?”

Stella pursed her lips. Obviously, these words were blaming her As a wife, she knew nothing when something happened to her husband. That was ridiculous!

Later, she heard Keegan say, “I didn’t tell her She has hematophobia. I feel bad when she cries.

Stella was speechless, but her mood lifted slightly all of a sudden. Then, she went to the water dispenser with the water glass.

Dahlia said, “You feel bad for this? Don’t you think about your grandma? Will she feel good. when she sees you hurt like this? Do I feel good about it?”

“Keegan, why are you still on her side at this time? If she really cares about you, she should be here earlier!” said Aurora, Keegan frowned. “Don’t add fuel to the fire!”

Aurora shrank her neck.

Dahlia frowned, “What’s wrong with Aurora’s word? You spoiled her!”

Albert also said, “Keegan, my daughter has been spoiled since she was a child. She might be out of order when she does something. Your mom’s right. You have to give her a lesson when necessary.

Don’t always spoil her. She’s already married. How can she not bother about anything?”

Vermont’s jaw dropped. “Is this what a dad should say? What does “give a lesson when necessary”

mean? Is he encouraging domestic violence? Is Stella really his child?”

Aurora wanted to say something else, but Dahlia interrupted her. “Let’s go back to the ward and talk.”

Then, she remained silent.

Aurora wanted to help Keegan, but he avoided her hand. He walked up to Stella and stretched out his uninjured hand.

Stella looked up at his fingers. ‘Except for his arm being in a sling, Keegan’s in good condition. How could he be dying as Vermont said?’

But when Stella thought of his arm taking seven stitches because of her, the feeling of guilt rose again.

From Keegan’s point of view, he saw Stella’s eyes were red with tears hanging from the corners of her eyes, and the tip of her nose was red too. She broke people’s hearts with her cute sniffles, making him restless.

Are you planning to do the rites for the first seven days after death for this person?” As soon as Keegan spoke, most of the guilt in Stella’s heart disappeared.

Stella thought viciously, ‘Keegan was probably beaten because of his loose tongue. It has nothing to do with me!’

Dahlia, Aurora, and Albert surrounded Keegan’s hospital bed. There was no place for Stella at all.

Vermont said, “Aurora, go get some warm water. Keegan hasn’t taken his medicine yet.”

Aurora frowned. “Isn’t someone standing there?”

“Hey! You…”

Vermont wanted to say something else, but Stella took the empty glass and said flatly, “I’ll do it.”

“Nothing,” Keegan said succinctly. “I ran into a few troublemakers while drinking, and there was a conflict.”

“What kind of conflict can hurt others in this way? Who hurt you? Where are they now?”

“Mom, I’ll handle this by myself. So leave it alone.”

Dahlia was upset. “How can I leave it alone? Look how seriously you were hurt. It happened last night, and I only found out at noon today! If someone can take good care of you, I can rest assured. But you stay in the hospital alone for the whole night. Nobody is taking care of you. How can you make me feel at ease?”

Stella pursed her lips. Obviously, these words were blaming her. As a wife, she knew nothing when something happened to her husband. That was ridiculous!

mean? Is he encouraging domestic violence? Is Stella really his child?”

Keegan glanced at him and said coldly, “How did you know I was in the hospital?”

Dahlia and Aurora came because they saw the picture in the group. But how did Albert know it and turn up with them?

Albert was dissatisfied with Keegan’s cold tone. However, he did not dare get angry. His eyes flickered, and he said, “I want to discuss something with Dahlia. But I knew about it when I arrived, so I came with her.”

Keegan was disinterested in what they were discussing. So, he turned to Dahlia and said, ”

Mom, I won’t be going to the company for a few days. When grandma asks, tell her I went on a trip with Stella.”

“Your grandma can’t be bluffed easily.”

“Just say we went on a honeymoon. She’ll believe it.”

Dahlia pursed her lips and stopped talking with a sullen face.

After a while, the nurse came in and said Keegan needed to change the dressing. So Keegan asked them to go back.
