Chapter 536
Stella looked over to where the shrieks came from and saw Keegan standing sullenly at the public
gallery. He was staring at the two girls in the back row with a cold and gloomy expression. Before the
girls could process what was happening, they trembled as they met Keegan's eyes. "W- What are you
doing?”
Keegan gave them a cold look and replied expressionlessly. "Calcium deficiency. Leg cramps."
The corners of the girls' mouths twitched when they heard that. 'Who the hell kicks someone else's
chair when they have a leg cramp?' However, Keegan emitted a scary aura, so they did not dare
retaliate, even if they knew he was making things up.
Aldor glanced at the two haters in the back and thought they were lucky to be girls. Otherwise, Keegan
would have kicked more than just their chairs.' People who sexualize women because they're pretty are

The bailiffs maintained order at the scene by saying, ’Silence in court."
Stella did not see Keegan kick the chairs, so she had no idea what had happened. But by looking at his
expression, she knew in one glance that the man was angry.
'How dare he get mad in court after coming here in support of Bella!'
Following this scene, the judge then announced a ten-minute break.
When the court was adjourned, Keegan got up to find Stella, but Ted suddenly stopped him. "Keegan,
long time no see. Are you here to witness this hearing today?"
Stella saw how close Ted and Keegan looked, and her eyes darkened. "I need to use the restroom,"
she told Marshall.
Keegan responded casually to Ted and turned around, but he found that Stella was gone. Frowning, he
walked toward Marshall and asked, "Where's Stella?"
"She went to the restroom."
Keegan was about to chase after her when Marshall stopped him. "There are many reporters at this
courthouse today. People are already speculating about her past after the defense attorney’s speech.
She's a public figure now. Have you ever thought of what would happen if people caught you two
together?"
Keegan then abruptly stopped in his tracks.
"Don't worry. I won't let her lose this lawsuit," Marshall whispered.
Keegan turned to look into his eyes and saw that it was dark and gloomy, like a bottomless hole. ’
When did she ask you to represent her?" he asked.
"Before the charity event," Marshall replied.
Keegan's face darkened a bit when he heard that. "Why didn't you tell me she was Dusk Galaxy if you
knew all this while?"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMarshall's gaze was blank. "Keegan, I'm a lawyer, and Stella is my client. Protecting the privacy of my
clients is the most basic requirement an attorney should practice. Plus, I didn't think that her identity
affected your marriage."
What Marshall meant was that Stella did not divorce Keegan because of this, so there would not be
any difference even if he knew.
However, Keegan did not understand his intended meaning. He clenched his hands tightly, and his
voice became slightly lower. "Control yourself, Marshall. Stella's mine. I don't care what you think of
her, but I'll kill you if you ever lay a finger on her.”
Marshall stopped adjusting his sleeves and looked at Keegan with indifference. "I have always been in
control of myself when she was your wife. But now that she's not, I think you're the one who should
restrain your thoughts."
Keegan's face turned grim. The two stared at each other, and neither one gave in.
"How did you know Stella's mother got into a car accident seven years ago?
