Chapter 455

Before this, even when Stella had a row with Keegan, she would still treat them politely. However, the aggression just now wasnever seen before. He instinctively thought that something was about to happen.

Marshall said, "However worse it was, you should never play the off-the- grid card. Stella had already decided in her heart. If wetalked on behalf of Keegan, it would only be counterproductive."

Vermont sighed, "You're right. | hope that son of a bitch would come back sooner. Or else no one could help him."

Albert knew about the news of Rainee's passing the night before her funeral procession. It was from a group chat among oldclassmates. He only knew when his classmates questioned him. He was a university schoolmate with Rainee. Many of these oldschoolmates were mutual friends with both of them.

Stella sent an obituary through her social media circle. The old schoolmates quickly saw it through everyone’s sharing andstarted asking in the group chat.novelbin

“Albert, why did you not tell us beforehand about Rainee's matter? It's such a big matter, yet we only knew after someone hadmentioned it. You really don't think of us as friends."

Some female schoolmates were voicing the injustice of Rainee, “It's better that Rainee passed. If she were aware, she wouldn'thave been able to bear with this injustice."

“Both of you are at least husband and wife in the end. This funeral of yours that you are preparing is too rushed. She had justpassed, but you are so impatient to cremate her. You even chose such a small funeral parlor?

Indeed, you have forgotten about your previous wife when you have your new flame."

The matter about Albert's illegitimate child caused a ruckus online a few days ago. So naturally, the old schoolmates in the groupheard about it. Although these schoolmates were mutual friends with him and Rainee, she and these people had a closer bond.

She was good at socializing and was caring and loyal. She may not have been considered a good wife and mother, but she wasvery devoted to her friends. As long as they open their mouth, she will always help them if it is within her abilities. Exampleswould be spots for whoever's child to attend school, performance track records for whoever's insurance company, and thehospital for whoever's father needed to be hospitalized...

Her methods in the business world are pretty resentful. Although she could be quite calculative about certain things, she stillhelped many schoolmates in dire need of help. Hence, when news of her passing away came out, all her friends could not helpbut feel sympathy and sadness. All of their words unavoidably had the dissatisfaction and sarcasm they had for Albert.

Rainee was the queen bee in their school department in the past and had many people chasing after her. Her family backgroundwas fine, and she did the best for herself. Back then, quite a few boys were pursuing her. In the end, she went with Albert, whohad mediocre qualities. Not only was she fighting poverty her whole life, she ultimately ended like this. In hindsight, it was indeednot worth it.

Albert saw the notifications from the group chat. He was furious. He was mad because the gang of people in the group chat wasspouting nonsense and slandering him. He was also angry that Stella did not even inform him about such a significant incidentas Rainee's death.

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that Stella did it on purpose. She had purposedly let him embarrass himself infront of all his old schoolmates. While calling Stella, he had a sullen face, but it didn't get through. Stella seemed to haveblacklisted him. This news made Albert feel terrible all over.

However, when he remembered that Rainee had passed away, it left a foul taste in his heart. When Hylda brought drinks in, shesaw Albert fuming with a sullen face.

“Albert, what happened?" Hylda asked.

Albert pursed his lips. After a long time, he said, "She died."

Hylda was stunned for a moment. But then the corner of her lips twitched into a subtle smile. She lowered her gaze and said,"It's been so many years. She had suffered enough. Dying would be much better than living on for her."

Albert did not speak. He then said after a while, "Stella issued an obituary.

The memorial service is tomorrow. Should | go or not?"
