Chapter 183
Kisa was envious when she heard about their love story. ‘It’s so different for the rich. Finding a 30-year-
old partner at the age of 51.’
Initially, Stella thought that the jewelry exhibition would be private with a small venue. However, she was
stunned when she arrived. The place was huge and magnificently decorated. There were nearly a
hundred security personnel keeping guard, and more than half of the nobilities in Rivera were there. The
luxury cars outside the venue were enough for them to hold a car exhibition.
Baldwin stopped in front of the venue as Cordelia and the others got off and went into the exhibition
center. Cordelia had an excellent reputation and rarely attended the various events. held each year after
she retired. That was why she instantly became the center of attention for the audience when she
stepped foot into the place.
Many of the noble women came over to say hello. Although Cordelia was old, her memory was strong.
She greeted most of the people by name, and for those whose names she did not know, she still greeted
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtthem politely.
It was undeniable that the old lady was famous in Rivera. Stella also gained some traction just by
standing beside her.
“Why is grandma here?” Aurora turned to look at the few people not far away and frowned. Didn’t
grandma tell you that she was coming, mom? She even brought that woman with her.”
Dahlia stared at them with a cold face and stayed quiet for a long time before she said, “Come on, let’s
go say hello to your grandma.”
Aurora’s lips curled as she spoke, “Grandma favors Keegan and that woman anyway. I’m not going over
there just to please her.”
“Your grandma is partial to her because she is your brother’s wife. You’re her granddaughter. I’m sure
she loves you more. Now, go. Don’t stand here and be a joke.”
Only then did Aurora go over reluctantly. “Grandma,” she called out to Cordelia.
The old lady turned around and saw that it was her eldest granddaughter. A loving look appeared in her
eyes while she said, “When did you arrive, darling?”
“Oh, just now. I’m here with mom. We came to support Aunty Irene’s exhibition.”
Dahlia then went over and said, “Mom, I thought you said you didn’t want to come. Why the change of
heart?” She was concerned when she saw that her mother-in-law had decided to attend the event with
her son and daughter-in-law instead of her and her daughter.
Dahlia’s high status in the circle of rich wives was primarily due to her outstanding son and Cordelia’s
prestige for years, while her birth family’s status was just average. This was one thing she had in
common with Stella-they both came from mediocre backgrounds and married into wealthy families.
Earlier, a group of ladies had asked her why Cordelia was not there. Dahlia told them she would not be
able to stand for long, but now she was here in a blink of an eye with her grandson and granddaughter-
in-law. This was a massive blow to Dahlia’s face.
Cordelia was indeed Keegan’s grandma since she, too, dumped the blame on Stella. “Stella
could not stop begging to come, so I decided to come here to have a look-see.”
Stella was speechless when she heard that. ‘What a great grandmother-in-law!” she thought. Dahlia
gave Stella a cold look and said in a heavy tone, “I thought Keegan was not feeling well, so I didn’t ask
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmthem to come. Why didn’t you tell me you wanted to come, Stella?” She was trying to imply that she was
a bad wife for wanting her ill husband to attend an event with her. Unsurprisingly, Stella threw the blame
onto Keegan. “Keegan said that he was bored and that he wanted to come. There was nothing I could do
to stop him, mom.”
It was Keegan’s turn to be at a loss for words. Dahlia knew that she was lying, but Keegan did not
expose her. So, she decided not to say anything further. “Since you’re here, remember to take good care
of Keegan,” she reminded her.
“Of course, mom,” Stella replied.
Dahlia turned to look at the old lady, and with a respectful and polite attitude, she said, “Mom, Irene is
right in the front. Come, I’ll bring you over to her.”
Cordelia nodded in response. She then turned around and told her grandson, “Bring her around this
place and buy her anything she likes.”
Hearing that, Dahlia froze. She stared at Stella coldly and helped the old lady to the front.
