Cordelia did not answer Dahlia's question. Instead, she asked, "How many years has it been since
Quentin's death?" "Sixteen years," Dahlia pursed her lips and said.
"Sixteen years, seven months, and nine days to be exact," the old lady said indifferently. "He was gone
on the first day of the new year."
Dahlia seemed a little sad. "Yeah. It's been so many years," she whispered.
"You haven't gotten remarried for sixteen years, yet you want Keegan to find a new partner after two
months of getting a divorce. Have you ever thought of what it's like for him?"
Dahlia's face changed. "It's not the same, mom. Quentin and I have been in love for so many years. He
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtand Stella agreed to get divorced."
Cordelia leered at her and said, "If you really love Quentin, where were you when the lab he was in
caught on fire?"
Dahlia's heart tightened, and she wanted to cry instantly. "Are you still blaming me for what happened?"
The old lady put down the scissors and calmly said, "Quentin asked me to treat you well, and I did. You
did not want to remarry because you wanted to stay in the Kane family, and I agreed. So, you know
better than to cross the line."
"You weren't the one who raised Keegan. So, who are you to dictate his marriage? Don't use his
marriage as a way to fulfill your own desires. Who he likes and who he marries is none of your
business."
"Mom—"
"I'm getting tired. You should go home. Don't ruin my plants." Cordelia interrupted her coldly.
Dahlia's face looked ugly. She finally put the fertilizer down and left with a cold expression.
Corrin then tried to fix the situation by saying, "Madam, they are family..." Baldwin cut her words short
and said, "Madam, the tea is ready." Cordelia nodded, took off the gloves, and left her garden.
Baldwin then turned to Corrin and said, "Don't speak up for others. Madam knows what she's doing."
"I just feel sorry for Keegan," Corrin sighed, and Baldwin patted her on the shoulder.
When Dahlia left Cordelia's place, she received a call from Aurora. "Mom, have you contacted Keegan
yet? Mrs. Saun and Jaylene are almost here."
Dahlia's expression softened slightly. "I'll call him right away. Remember to stall them. I'll be there
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmsoon."
"Okay."
After hanging up the phone, Dahlia dialed Keegan's number. Keegan did not get much sleep last night
and only had a short nap in the lounge. When he saw Dahlia calling, he tossed his phone to Aldor and
asked him to answer it.
Aldor picked up the call and said, "Hello?"
"It's you? Where's Keegan."
"Mr. Kane is in a meeting. Is everything okay, Madam?"
Dahlia did not know Keegan's interests, but she knew Keegan's temperament. If Keegan was in a
meeting and he asked Aldor to pick up the call, that meant that he most likely did not want to hear her
voice.
So, she said bluntly, "Put Keegan on the phone."
"I can pass a message to Mr. Kane, Madam," said Aldor.
