Keegan was getting frustrated with Cordelia’s nonsense. ‘She acts more like Stella’s grandmother than mine,’ he thought.

“Things are different now, Grandma. Stella has just reconciled with her family. Us getting remarried is a big deal. Not only do I have to get her to agree to the proposal, but I would also need the approval from her elders,” Keegan explained.

Puzzled with the information given, Cordelia asked, ’What do you mean she reconciled with her family?”

Keegan then told her about Stella’s relationship with the Sauns and Halls.

Cordelia took a long time to take everything in before sighing. “I knew Stella looked familiar from the first time I saw her. I couldn’t help but want to love and take care of her. I can’t believe she’s Freesia’s child. Fate surely works in mysterious ways,” she said.

There was another brief silence after that. “It seems like the chances of you remarrying Stella aren’t looking too good. I don’t think her family would approve of you, especially since you’re her ex-husband,” Cordelia continued.

“Maybe you should invite Mr. and Mrs. Hall Sr. out for some dinner and put in a good word for me. You do want to see me married before I turn 35, right?” Keegan suggested.

Cordelia sneered, ‘That’s your problem. Don’t tell me Stella can’t live without you when you’re the one who needs her. I knew you couldn’t bear to lose her the moment you picked her in the beginning! Everything you said about not wanting to waste your time finding a partner was a lie.
