Chapter 1277
“I want to inquire about the best day for Xenia to get the C- section ording to God’s n,” said
Albert.
Ste was at a loss for words. ‘When did Albert be so godly? Where was this behavior when he
decided to hurt her wife of twenty years?’ she thought as her face tightened with displeasure.
Keegan grabbed her hand and gently rubbed his thumb over it, trying to soothe her. “I’m not sure. I’ll
have to ask,” he answered Albert indifferently.
He paused briefly before adding, “Mr. Jewell, while I may not be a spiritual person, I find tampering with
destiny and manipting life events through artificial means to be viting divine favor. Instead of
seeking spiritual guidance, perhaps doing good deeds to create more blessings for the child might be
more beneficial.”
Albert’s expression momentarily stiffened upon hearing that. He contemted about it and said, “That
makes sense.” He then reminded Keegan to get the venerable’s number and hung up.
After the call ended, Ste could not help but mutter, “That man has gone mad!”
Keegan, on the other hand, said, “It’s not entirely a surprise. The more bad deeds someone does, the
more they fear that their wrongdoings will affect their child. He encountered numerous difficulties after
our divorce. It’s typical of him to want to turn to religion at this stage of life.”
Before Ste could respond, her phone rang. Keegan nced at the screen and saw that it was
Marshall. Ste froze and asked if she should answer, to which Keegan responded, “Sure. Hold onto
this cross while you speak to him since you said he brings negative energy.”
Ste did not say anything. She picked up the call, and Marshall’s voice sounded from the other end of
the line.” Ste, it’s me.”
“Mr. Moore, how’s your injury?”
Marshall chuckled softly and warmly replied, “It’s nothing too serious, dragging you into that dangerous
situation.”
“There’s nothing to be sorry about. We’re friends, and friends help each other out,” said Ste.
“Are you home? I’ve arrived at Clouditude International.”
“Y-you’re here?” Ste asked. As soon as she uttered those words, she felt Keegan’s intense gaze on
her. ‘What was
with the look? It’s not like I invited him over!’ she thought.
“Yeah, I brought some gifts. I wanted to check on you and Ms. Thompson. Things might have turned
out differently if it weren’t for you two that day,” Marshall responded.
“That’s very kind of you,” said Ste. “He’s not here just for me, so I can’t say no on Felicity’s behalf.’
“Also, there’s something I’d like to discuss with you concerning Ms. Spade’s car ident,” Marshall
continued.

Keegan paused when he heard that. Ste raised an eyebrow as she asked in a low voice, “Did you
find something?”
“I’ll talk to you when Ie up. I’m waiting for the elevator.”
Ste turned to Keegan, who was shirtless, and said, “Take your time. I need to clean up a bit.”
Marshall chuckled softly and replied, “Sure thing.”
Ste then pulled Keegan up and said, “Come on. Move it. Go to Vermont’s ce. You can go to work
when Marshalles.
