Ste was notpletely useless. She took meticulous care of the nts around the house and even
used to prepare
meals for Keegan, although she eventually stopped.
Keegan lifted his gaze and said indifferently. “I doubt you misunderstood the intention behind my
remarks back then.
You’re twisting my words on purpose, aren’t you?”
Dahlia’s expression wavered when she heard that. “It was genuinely hard to discern just how much you
cared for her at
that time. I thought you were merely following your grandmother’s wishes.”
“Grandma never coerced me into marrying anyone. She’s not like you; she respects my choices. From
the moment I first
brought Ste before you, you held a disdain for her. Don’t use my perceived disinterest to justify your
actions. Even if I
didn’t harbor affection for her, she was my wife back then. As an elder, you should’ve shown the
respect and care that’s
due. Grandma didn’t like you either, but she still defended you in front of others and granted you the
dignity you
deserved.”
Dahlia’s face darkened, and her eyes were now tinged with red.
“Yes, I didn’t like her, but everything I did was all for you. Without a powerful inw, how would you win
in this
election alone? How would you fulfill your father’s legacy…?”
“I’ll pursue what I desire on my own. I don’t need a woman to pave my way.”
Keegan continued with a stern expression, “You never gave me what I want. Yet, you take away what I
achieve. Your talk
about looking out for me is merely to smooth the path for you and be the esteemed Mrs. Kane!”
Dahlia’s lips trembled, and her voice was hoarse. “Is this how you truly think of me?”
Keegan clenched his fists. “Tell me, where were you the day theb on caught fire? You knew it was
extremely hazardous,
yet you took Aurora there with you. Why didn’t you keep an eye on her?!’
Dahlia’s face turned pale instantly. She trembled, as she spoke. “Are you ming me for your father’s
death?”
“Yes.” Keegan did not deny it this time, and he spoke in a deep tone. “She was just five years old and
unaware of
anything. My father instructed you to take her to the lounge and wait. You were asked to watch over
her. How did she end
up in theb? The fire wouldn’t have happened if she hadn’t identally touched the equipment. Dad
managed to escape
with me, but you told him Aurora was missing. It was such a massive fire, yet he rushed back in without
hesitation… Where were you at that time? Where were you?”
Keegan’s emotions became highly agitated as he spoke, and his hand could not stop trembling.
The most agonizing aspect of it all was not his father’s state in the fire but rather his father’s death. In
reality, Quentin did
not suffer many burns. He emerged unscathed, and everyone believed he was fine. But, after a few
hours, he began
struggling to breathe.
When he arrived at the hospital, the doctor exined that he had inhaled an excessive amount of
harmful chemicals,
resulting in severe lung burns. His entire respiratory system had copsed beyond recovery.
Keegan watched his fathery on the hospital bed, enduring immense pain as his life slipped away bit
by bit. It was a
nightmare that would haunt him for the rest of his days.
Cordelia did not hold Aurora responsible for Quentin’s death. He had saved the child at the risk of his
own life. It was not
her granddaughter’s fault. So, after Quentin’s death, Cordelia forbade anyone from mentioning the
matter again.
However, Keegan, who witnessed the tragedy firsthand, never forgot what happened.
Dahlia’splexion grew even paler when she heard his son’s words. “Would you have preferred that I
was the one who
died that day?” she asked in a hoarse tone.
Keegan did not respond to the pointless question.
Regardless of his answer, his father could not be brought back to life.
“I went to the car to grab your dad’s lunch, and Aurora wasn’t willing toe with me. So, I instructed
someone to watch
over her. How would I have known she’d run into theb? Do you think I wasn’t grieving when your
father died? He was
my husband! Without him, your sister and I endured so much as a widow and an orphan for all those
years. Why would I
intentionally harm him?”
Keegan’s tone remained insensible. “Only you know the truth. IV
He nced at the time and calmly stated, “Take good care of yourself. When you’re discharged, I’ll hire
someone else to
look after you. Let’s not discuss the family ties between us anymore. It’s better if we just talk about
money.”
Keegan pulled a debit card from his wallet and ced it on Dahlia’s bedside table. “The password is
dad’s birthday.
Hope you get well soon.” With that, he turned away without ncing at her and left the ward.
