Chapter 787
Stella did the math and realized that it was the time of the year when she would receive new clothes from Cordelia.
But...
"Don't you know, Mr.Elrod?"
Stella interrupted the man's introduction to the clothes.
"What do you mean, Mrs.Kane?" the man asked.
"I'm no longer part of the Kane family.There's no need for you to send me clothes anymore."
"We haven't received any relevant instructions," said Thomas Elrod.
Stella thought that this was the old lady's doing.
Otherwise, they would not have come to her current residence bearing garments.
When Stella and Keegan were still together, Stella accepted whatever gifts Cordelia gave.She was her favorite.
But now that they were divorced, Stella felt that it would be inappropriate to accept them.
"Hold on, Mr.Elrod.Let me make a call," she said.
Thomas nodded and said, "Go ahead, Miss."
Stella dialed for Cordelia, who was on vacation at a summer resort.
Cordelia was fishing with Baldwin when Stella called.
When Cordelia saw that it was Stella, she picked up the phone.
"Grandma, it's me."
"Why are you calling? Did you miss me?" The old lady smiled and asked.
Stella laughed and said, "Yeah.When are you coming back?"
"Maybe after a few more days."
"No..." Cordelia said as she put some bait on her hook.
"I'm an old lady who's already in her 80s.I wouldn't know what's fashionable these days," she added.
‘If grandma wasn't the one who sent me the clothes, then..."
"Whoever it is, just take it.You'll get to wear it sooner or later.It's a good deal, you know," the old lady said.
Stella was at a loss for words.
Baldwin put his hand on his forehead in frustration.He thought the old lady would say something nice about her grandson, but it turns out, she told her granddaughter- in-law to take advantage of him.
Stella's thoughts were all over the place after she hung up the phone.She never expected that the clothes in her closet were from Keegan.She frowned and recalled Keegan being there when Thomas came to deliver the clothes for the first time.She did not dare to sign the package, so she asked Keegan to come downstairs.
Keegan had told her that it was a gift from Cordelia, and she believed it.
Now that she thought about it, Cordelia never attended the banquet.
'How would she have known that my dress was out of fashion?! Ugh.Keegan is such an idiot!’ Stella then dialed Keegan's number with a sullen look on her face. However, Aldor was the one who answered.
