Chapter 388
She did not see Keegan when she returned. Vermont was nowhere in sight. Bits and pieces of cream
from the cake were plastered messily. The venue was as noisy as before, but a lot of guests were
already drunk.
Stella found Marshall sitting on a couch in a corner. His hair was smeared with whip cream and he was
leaning on the table for support while rubbing his temples with his eyes closed. Marshall only opened
his eyes after Stella got closer and called out to him. His expression became warm when he raised his
head and saw Stella. "You're here."
Stella nodded and asked, "Where's Keegan?"
"Keegan's drunk. I brought him to rest with another person's help. I'll bring you to him.
"Sorry for the trouble."

supported him. "Are you alright, Mr. Moore?"
His complexion was pale and his lip was colorless. He waved and replied," My head hurts. I might have
drank too much."
Stella remembered that Marshall just had surgery and had symptoms of migraine. She quickly let him
sit and said, "Take a rest. Is your medication with you? Maybe you shouldn't have it seeing that you're
drunk. I'll get you a glass of water instead."
Not waiting for his reply, she headed to the reception to ask for some water and was soon back with
half a glass of warm water. Marshall sipped on the water in a gentlemanly manner and Stella could only
helplessly wait for him to finish the glass of water after a few minutes.
His complexion returned after drinking the glass of water. Stella then asked, "If you still don't feel well
when we go back, I'll take you to the hospital for a checkup."
"It's alright. It's just an old problem. The pain will come in waves and subside after a while."
He stood up and said, "I'll bring you to Keegan. If he found out he was sleeping in such a messy place,
he would most likely blow his top. It's better to bring him back soon."
'Mr. Moore really understands Keegan,' Stella thought. Then, she replied," Then, I'll have to trouble Mr.
Moore to guide me to Keegan."
When the both of them took an elevator from the bar to the hotel, Marshall asked, "Have you finished
covering your flowerbed?"
"Huh?" Stella paused for a moment before remembering her excuse. "Oh, yes. They're all properly
covered."
Marshall smiled. "That's a relief."
She pondered for a while before she asked, "Mr. Moore, will a signed divorce agreement from a few
years back still be effective if the formalities had not been completed?"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"If formalities had not been completed, a divorce agreement is not legally binding. No matter how many
years the agreement had been signed, incomplete formalities with a signed divorce agreement will still
render the piece of paper useless. The details of the agreement could only be in effect once formalities
had been completed. What's more, if the divorce formalities were not completed after a long time, the
details of the agreement might need to be revised due to the difference of financial assets then and
now."
Marshall was surprised and asked, "Why are you asking all this?"
"Ah, it's nothing. I'm just asking." Stella's heart sank.
Rainee had used evidence of Albert's fraud to threaten him to sign the divorce agreement back then.
But, ever since Rainee's accident, Albert had full control of the company and would have covered most
of his tracks by now.
Ultimately, Albert was paying for the medical bills for Rainee's treatment, which made Stella unable to
break off the relationship.
