Chapter 544
Stella and Keegan followed Baldwin into the house.
Baldwin had a serious expression on the way there, so Stella dared not ask any questions. However,
as they kept walking, Stella realized Baldwin was not leading them to Cordelia's room but to the turf at
the back of the estate.
Stella frowned and whispered, "Baldwin, are we going the wrong way?"
"Nope." Baldwin continued warmly, ’ Madam Kane is here."
Soon after, they arrived at the horse stable. Stella immediately spotted Cordelia looking healthy as she
sat outside the stable with Juno.
Cordelia held an apple and muttered, "Have a bite, sweetheart. Look at you, your coat is no longer
shiny, and your face has gotten longer. If you keep getting skinnier, you'll turn ugly. Then, it will be even
less likely that Stella would come and visit you."

"Why don't you just have a bite? You haven't pooped in two days. You're making me worried."
Stella was speechless.
'Didn't they say the old lady can't hold on any longer? Which part of her can't hold on any longer? Isn't
she alive and kicking? She's even got the energy to feed a horse!' she thought.
Then, Stella could not help but glare at Keegan, who was pursing his lips and had an unchanged
expression.
Baldwin said loudly, "Madam Kane, Mr. and Mrs. Kane are here."
Cordelia paused and turned to Stella. She immediately looked as if she had seen her savior.
"Stella, come, come! Hurry up and come take a look. Juno hasn't been eating or drinking for the past
few days. I don't know what's wrong."
Stella could not give Cordelia an attitude and leave, so she had no choice but to walk up to her.
'Have you asked a vet over to take a look at him?"
"I did." The old lady frowned. She continued with a look of worry, "The vet said it's psychological. Juno's
been yearning for someone until he fell sick, so he's throwing a tantrum and refusing to eat."
"Yearning for someone until he fell sick?" Stella's eyebrows twitched. She could not help but silently
think about how absurd it was.
'Can even horses yearn for others until they fall sick?' she wondered.
She coughed. "Did you get Juno a girlfriend?"
Cordelia shook her head. "He misses you. You haven't played with him for over half a month now. He's
angry and throwing a tantrum."
Stella was speechless.
'I have a feeling the old lady is uttering nonsense,' she thought.
However, Juno quickly gave her a response. It turned its head and glared at her with its big eyes as it
panted heavily through its nose.
This was a sign that a horse was excited.

'Is Juno that fond of me?' she wondered.
Stella was not certain either because Juno had an unpredictable temperament.
Juno was an exceptional horse, so it was bound to have quite the temper. Besides, Cordelia spoiled
Juno, so it would not let anyone it did not acknowledge touch it. But of course, it was also not friendly
with the ones it acknowledged.
Cordelia handed the apple she was holding to Stella. "Try feeding Juno."
Stella had no choice but to accept it. Then, she handed it to Juno's mouth.
Juno stared at her for a few seconds before it opened its mouth, bit the apple, and threw the apple on
the ground.
Stella was speechless.
"I told you it has nothing to do with me..." Before Stella could finish her sentence, Juno suddenly stuck
out its neck and bit on Stella's shirt sleeve.
There was a loud ripping sound, and Stella's shirt sleeve got ripped off from her shoulder.
Juno excitedly galloped circles within the stable with Stella's shirt sleeve in its mouth.
The corners of Stella's lips twitched.
