Seeing Keegan's serious look, Dahlia quickly told Aurora to zip it. She turned to Keegan and said, "I talked to your father-in-law. He said it was epilepsy. The old man's okay now. Aurora didn't mean for this to happen. She's freaked out, too."Aurora blurted out, "I knew he was faking it! He grabbed my arm, so I pushed him a bit. It's just bad luck that he had a seizure then. I'm glad he's okay, though. I'd feel awful if he wasn't."Keegan looked really mad. "Aurora, you think nobody heard what you said to him?"Aurora felt bad but tried to play it cool. "What are you talking about, Keegan? I was just there to deliver some medicine. He wouldn't let me in, so I pushed him a little."Keegan and Stella weren't home, and the servant only came out after everything happened. So even if someone heard her, Aurora wasn't going to confess.Seeing she wasn't sorry, Keegan waved his hand. Aldor stepped up and played a video on his phone, even turning the volume all the way up."We're not fa

Arthur knew people well. He'd lived a long time and seen a lot, including what his family was really after.He was nearing ninety, outliving even some of his own kids. Over the years, his grandkids became distant, especially after his kids passed away. He spent years mostly alone, with family rarely visiting. But the moment he got that compensation money, everyone became caring relatives again.He knew they were after his money.He'd lived long enough to stop caring about things like money. He also knew that once he gave it away, no one would bother with him anymore.So, when he still had what everyone wanted, he moved to Rivera, and they all let him because he had the cash. Then, he saw Stella on TV and realized he wanted to see his great-granddaughter again.Stella was different. She cared about his health and well-being, always putting others before herself.Stella held back her tears and spoke softly, "I'll make the Kane family say sorry to you."Arthur shook his head. "That

Stella felt her heart drop, thinking Keegan was protecting Aurora."Wow, Mr. Kane, how noble of you. What do you think my great-grandpa's going to do? He's too old to lay a hand on her. Let go!"Keegan held his grip, speaking softly, "Stella, think. What's going to happen if you actually slap her?"Stella said nothing."Great-grandpa's still in the hospital," Keegan continued. "Do you think he'd recover peacefully knowing you fought with my family?"Stella stared at him. "He wouldn't be in the hospital if not for Aurora.""That's why I brought her—to apologize and make amends."Stella shook off his grip. "Money isn't the answer, Keegan. I won't forget this," she said, walking away.No longer wanting to confront Aurora, Stella stood quietly to the side.Albert was surprised to see Dahlia and her family. Dahlia asked how Arthur was, then headed into his room without even checking if he was awake.Arthur was awake. His expression changed when he saw Keegan. "Ah, Keegan," he said

Stella paused and spun around. "Excuse me? What did you just say?"Aurora grinned. "I said it seems like your family is more into money than morals. But your aunt's more upfront about it."Her phone rang and she picked up, walking away. "Yeah, where are we meeting tonight? The Dawn again? Alright, see you there."Stella's eyes narrowed as she watched Aurora walk away.Back at the hospital, Keegan had arranged for a caregiver just for Arthur.After hanging around for a bit, Stella said she had to go for some work commitments and left.Keegan sat there, peeling an orange for Arthur.Arthur wasn't really hungry and said quietly, "You should go too. Stella didn't seem too happy today. Why not go spend some time with her?"Thinking of the way Stella had looked at him earlier, Keegan felt uneasy."I'll go after you eat two more slices," he replied softly.Arthur quickly popped two orange slices into his mouth. "Alright, off you go. I need to get some sleep."Keegan gave his number

Stella squinted at the bright car light before seeing Trevor's Bentley pull up. "Hi, Mr. Saun," she greeted cautiously.Trevor offered to drive her home, but Stella hesitated. "My husband's working late. Would you mind giving me a ride?"Once in the car, Stella was visibly cold. Trevor told his driver, Xavier, to turn up the heat, and Stella thanked him.Trevor eyed her curiously, making Stella a bit uncomfortable. Offering her water, he asked, "Would you like some?""I'm not thirsty, thank you," she replied, avoiding the bottle."Alright, let's head to Royalpark then," Trevor suggested."Actually, could you take me to the city hospital?" Stella countered.Trevor looked concerned. "Are you not feeling well, Mrs. Kane?""Nope." Stella paused before she continued, "One of my family members is staying there."Trevor stopped asking questions and told Xavier to start driving.When they arrived at the hospital, Stella was about to get out of the car, but Trevor stopped her. "Mrs. K
