Chapter 17
“Divorce? What happened?”
Marshall was a little curious.
When Keegan got married, Marshall was having medical treatment. So, he did not come back to attend his wedding. He spent
most of his time overseas for the past years. He did not meet Keegan’s wife, not even once. But, he heard Vermont and other
people mentioned her. They said she was good–looking and well–behaved but dull.
At that time, those immoral people even made a bet in the group that Keegan and his wife would divorce in less than three
months. Months and months passed by. They had already been married for more than three years in the blink of an eye.
Marshall thought their relationship was stable. He did not expect to hear that they wanted to get a divorce when he had just got
back. And, from the way Vermont said it, he noticed that the one who wanted a divorce was Keegan’s wife. So, he got even more
curious.
When Vermont brought that up, he did not feel the pain from his wound anymore. He excitedly said, “I’ll tell you what happened.
Two days ago, Keegan and I ran into his wife. He thought she was following him. But she didn’t even bother him. She left after
scolding Keegan. Yet, he insisted that they were just
arguing…
Keegan’s face darkened. “Just keep your mouth shut!”
Vermont tutted, “You were dumped, and you still wanted me to shut up about it.”
The veins on Keegan’s forehead twitched.
Marshall patted Vermont’s leg. Vermont then stopped talking about it. He timely changed the subject. Anyway, Keegan has
stakes in Rotona Pinnacle Hospital. You can ask him to check the information of that lady.”
Keegan asked, “What lady?”
Vermont embellished the story of what happened in the hospital just now.
Keegan reacted just like how Vermont did. He was very surprised. But, he did not reject the request. He asked in detail, “What
does she look like?”
Vermont made a joke, “From what he described, she seemed like an angel from heaven.”
Marshall laughed too. “She’s quite angelic indeed. She was a little hasty. But, she’s quite cute.”
Keegan pondered for a moment. He said, “Any other traits? I’ll make a call later and ask for you.
Marshall shook his head. “It’s all right. I think with her temper, she’ll be unhappy if she finds out that I investigate her. I’ll just go
with the flow. If we’re meant to meet again, perhaps we’ll meet again.”
Vermont raised his eyebrows and said, “You just met her, and you already know about her temper?”
“It’s just what I felt. She dared to take my phone away when she suspected that I secretly took pictures of her. With this kind of
personality, I think she hates to be investigated privately.”
Keegan agreed. “Just go with the flow, then. It could be counterproductive if you try too hard.”
Vermont clamored, “One of you is getting a divorce from your wife, and the other is still single. Yet, both of you are discussing a
woman’s mind. Don’t you guys think it’s ridiculous? I’m an experienced ladykiller. Why didn’t you guys think of asking for my
opinion?”
Keegan did not even bother to look at him this time.
Marshall glanced at him. He saw that he looked desperate to be asked. He hesitated for a moment
before he honestly said, “If you know what’s going on in a woman’s mind, you wouldn’t be dumped more than ten times, right?
You wouldn’t have so many failures.”
Vermont was speechless.
Meanwhile, Stella was panting as she ran back to the ward. The doctor was examining Rainee. She then breathed slowly as she
stood at the side to stare unwaveringly at them. She was afraid that she would miss something.
While the doctor was examining Rainee, he asked the orderly, “Are you sure that the patient’s eyeballs moved just now?”
The orderly hurriedly nodded her head and said, “When the nurse came to do the dressing just now, I saw her eyeballs move.
The nurse saw it too. You can ask her.”
The nurse said, “I think they moved. But it happened for a split second. I wasn’t sure if I was mistaken.”
The doctor did not speak any further. He then continued his examination.
Stella was distraught. After the doctor finished checking, she immediately asked, “Doctor Steven, is my mother going to wake up
soon?”
Doctor Steven shook his head, “It’s not certain. Her eyeballs only moved one time. It doesn’t mean anything. We have to keep
monitoring her. If she moves her eyeballs more often, or if we can clearly see that she moved her head, then those could be
signs of her waking up.
