Chapter 2084
The pain and sadness in Marshall's eyes felt too genuine. If the same thing happened in the past,
Stella would have surely blamed herself for saying such things.
He had helped her so much during her most difficult times, such as before and after her divorce from
Keegan. She would still consider him a friend even if he were not Keegan's childhood friend.
However, when she realized that Marshall might have something to do with the kidnapping, she could
not bring herself to trust a word he said anymore.
Stella closed her eyes, trying to calm herself down. After a while, she said," I'm sorry. I was just too
shocked.”
Marshall lowered his gaze and asked hoarsely, ’Stella, did you find the days I spent with you when
Keegan went missing repulsive?"
Stella pursed her lips. After a long pause, she said, ‘I'm very grateful for your help during that time, and
I feel ashamed for using you to force Keegan to come back. I only lashed out at you because I was
worried that he might be involved in this. I shouldn't have vented my anger on you. I'm sorry."
Marshall smiled bitterly. "Stella, you don't have to draw a clear line with me like this. I understand what
you mean. Regardless of whether Keegan will regain his memory, you'll still choose to be with him.
"That is why I stepped back to my place. I talked to you about this today because I consider you a
friend and feel you have the right to know. You might think that I have other intentions, but I just want to
see you, that's all. If that also makes you uncomfortable, I'm sorry. I won’t ever do this again."
Marshall took the documents, put them back into this briefcase, and stood up. "Goodbye," he said.
Stella stopped him. "Mr. Moore, I should be the one to apologize. I was too emotional. Thank you for
telling me about this today, but I believe Keegan has nothing to do with this matter."
Marshall stopped walking and said flatly without looking back, 'I hope so, too."
When Marshall stepped out the door, he bumped into Aurora, who was about to come in. Aurora
paused for a moment before subconsciously calling out, "Hey, Marshall."
Marshall replied with a soft hum and left without looking at her.
Aurora entered the café, puzzled. "What's wrong with Marshall?"
Stella did not say anything as she was still thinking about that photo.
Aldor said, "The way you called him sounded pretty affectionate. You were just across the street. Were
you waiting for a cab to get here?"
Aurora kept quiet.
"Are you crazy?"
She glared at him as she threw the bag in her hand at him. "I bought clothes for your mother!"
Aldor was somewhat surprised. "Weren't you going to pick up your medical report?"
Aurora said in an irritated tone, "Take it or give it back to me!"novelbin
Aldor dodged her hand and chuckled. "Ms. Kane, thank you for your generosity."
When Aurora was about to say something, Stella suddenly stood up." Aldor, take me home."
On that day, Keegan came back home around five in the evening.
Aldor told him that Stella had been in a daze after meeting Marshall, so he got worried and came home
early after finishing his work.
As Keegan pushed open the door to the second-floor balcony, he saw Stella holding a watering can
and flooding the little freesia plant.
