After Vermont switched off Felicity's phone, she asked, feeling confused, "Why did you do that?"

Vermont looked at her and said, "Would you prefer telling her that I'm injured down there because of you?

"That I might never be able to sleep with another woman again, so you're just pretending to be my girlfriend to save me from embarrassment?"

Felicity kept quiet.

Then, she said softly, "I didn't say I would say that. Stella is just worried that you're lying to me."

Vermont chuckled. "Lie to you about what?"

Felicity opened her mouth to speak but then closed it.

'He didn't hold a knife to my throat and force me. I was the one who couldn't bear the guilt and offered to be his fake girlfriend. Everything seems fine, but I just feel weird about it.

'Whatever. I should stop thinking about it. The most important thing now is to get him healed. Then, I won't have to be his fake girlfriend anymore.'

Felicity pushed those thoughts aside. "I'll go get the admission procedure for you, the

    Felicity was at a loss for words.'I didn't even promise to make it for you, okay?'She was doubtful.'A man would probably be very bothered regarding their sexual ability, right? Let alone a playboy like him. However, why do I feel like he accepted everything too quickly?'"You—""I'll lie down for a while. It's hurting so much." Then, the look on Vermont's face suddenly turned awful as he said softly, "Let me rest for a while before we leave."Felicity instantly swallowed back her doubts.'Perhaps I'm just overthinking things.'****Meanwhile, Stella was burning with anger after she had been hung up on. She immediately put her phone down and dialed Keegan's number.Keegan was still in a meeting at the company. When he saw Stella's incoming call, he paused momentarily and stood up. "Keep discussing the problems we were just talking about earlier. I'll be back in a while."Then, he left the conference room while holding his phone.Everyone in the room exchanged glances and

    "I wonder how Mr. Kane's current girlfriend looks like. His ex-wife was gorgeous, yet he could still divorce her. I just can't imagine how beautiful his new girlfriend is."Aldor's ears moved slightly, but he remained quiet."Sigh. To be honest, I'm very fond of Mr. Kane's ex-wife. Even though I've only seen her twice, something in how she speaks makes me so comfortable. She's not arrogant at all. She even gave me an orange after she asked me for directions. And her smile... oh my. It made me blush even though I'm a woman myself.""I heard that she became an actress after divorcing Mr. Kane. She has a show coming up, and I'm looking forward to it very much. It'd be a shame if she didn't join showbiz with that gorgeous face of hers.""After the divorce, there were even rumors about her being an illegitimate child. There were a lot of scandals revolving around her, but it seems like Mr. Kane has never said anything bad about her. Mr. Kane is actually pretty respectful as her ex-husba

    Stella shook with fury after hearing the word "unreasonable."Her face immediately darkened as she said, "Yes. I'm very unreasonable. Is this the first day you know me? I'm going to be even more unreasonable now! Listen to me, Keegan Kane. If you don't get Vermont to break up with Felicity, then I'll break up with you!"Then, she hung up the phone without giving Keegan a chance to speak.The look on Keegan's face was awful. He wanted to call her back, but he felt dejected when he thought about what Stella said.The word "break up" came too easily from her, as if she did not care about their relationship.Keegan's grip on his phone tightened, but he did not make the call. Then, he went back to the conference room with a gloomy expression.Everyone inside was still gossiping about their boss and his gorgeous wife when they heard the door being pushed open.They immediately fell silent after seeing Keegan.Keegan sat down with a tense face. When he picked up a document, a male col

    Keegan looked away from him and put his pen down. Then, he said, "Go on, where's the result?"The male colleague looked embarrassed, not knowing whether to stay or leave.Aldor cleared his throat and said to him, "Hurry up and show us the result now! Do you really want to switch jobs tomorrow?"The male colleague recollected himself, quickly connected his laptop to the projector, and presented his result stutteringly.Even though the look on Keegan's face was icy, he did not interrupt the male colleague.Everyone was relieved as they thought to themselves. 'Mr. Kane is so unpredictable.'As for Stella, she actually felt a little regretful after hanging up. She used to hate people talking about breaking up easily, yet she just became one of them.She knew very well that Keegan could not do anything about Vermont's relationship; indeed, she was just being unreasonable.However, she just could not bring herself to apologize after saying those things.Unless Keegan gave her a chan

    Keegan paused. He called her again, and the same thing happened.Stella did not answer his call.He looked at Aldor as if his eyes were saying, "It's not like what you told me at all."Aldor cleared his throat before he said, "You should've called her back as soon as she hung up."It's already been more than two hours now. She probably got a lot angrier than before after so long. I'm not surprised that she isn't picking up."If you want to apologize to your girlfriend, you've got to do it as soon as you can. The longer you wait, the less willing she is to reconcile."Keegan kept quiet."What should I do then?""Pick her up tomorrow morning and talk to her in person."Keegan thought about it and stopped dwelling on it. It was already so late, and it would be difficult for him to explain himself through the phone. Moreover, he figured that he would probably make Stella even angrier if that happened.So, he transferred five million into Stella's account with the remark: [Have a

    Keegan froze for a moment as his expression turned serious. Then, he picked up the photo and took a closer look at it.The child in that photo, about four to five years old, wore a little dress and looked extremely upset. Although the child's hair looked long, it seemed like a wig was attached to the hat.The child was holding a pink leopard toy beside a swimming pool. The pool tiles were of an old-fashioned grid pattern, and there was a small duck that could spray water.Keegan paused and remembered that the place was Orchid Garden Residence—Trevor's old house.Keegan went there with his father many times when he was younger. Trevor fooled him into believing the duck would spin once he sat on it. He sat on it and ended up wetting his pants all over.Trevor had always been mischievous since he was young.Keegan saw a photo of Stella as a child that she brought to his house after marrying him, and he realized that the "little girl" in the photo resembled her very much.The only n

    Besides... she did not even know that the Saun family once lost their daughter.Only a few families that were good friends of the Saun family knew about it.Aldor thought momentarily and said, "This could be a good thing. At least we know Mr. Saun is not trying to be with Madam, right?"Aldor paused as he spoke. Then, he added, "Is Mr. Saun going to hate you for the socialites you introduced to him back then? And what about the time when you used Luna to pull a prank on him?"The expression on Keegan's face did not look very good. Clearly, he had thought about that too.Aldor said to himself. 'Tsk. Although he doesn't have to worry about a love rival now, he will have a hard time pleasing his brother-in-law.'I've met unlucky people, but no one came close to him. Mr. Kane thought he had already won Stella back, not knowing that he had only cleared the game's first stage and the final boss was waiting for him.'Keegan not only upset his brother-in-law but was so sick that he did

    Felicity said inwardly, 'Of course I do. I knew a few of his ex-girlfriends through work. Not only that I know them, but I also know how they broke up with Vermont.'After all, Felicity was very nosy and loved hearing gossip like that in the industry.Felicity cleared her throat and acted like a lovestruck girl. "Even though he has a lot of ex-girlfriends, he has never cheated on any of them. Well, he's just another man, not to mention his success. So it's normal for him to attract so many girls."Her words left Stella utterly speechless.'Is this still the same person who only believes in true love that I knew? When did she become so open-minded?'Stella asked, "You don't mind at all?"Felicity wanted to say no, but as soon as she opened her mouth, she found it difficult to get the word out.The reason for that was not because she did not feel like lying. It was because she felt a bit uncomfortable after thinking about Vermont's ex-girlfriends.Then, she lowered her gaze and s

    Keegan moved from initial resistance to reluctantly listening, and eventually to questioning."Why do these novels portray men as so stupid and brainless, yelling at the female lead as if they have intermittent explosive disorder?""Is the male lead sick? Forcing the female lead to donate a kidney, is he out of his mind?""How many years would they get for calling the police in their world?""Why is he so dumb? The supporting actress claims the female lead pushed her into the water and he believes it? Is checking surveillance footage illegal?""Stella, are you making fun of me?""I can't learn this. It all feels so neurotic. What does the female lead see in him?"Stella retorted, "Who cares if it's neurotic? Just mimic that stupidity, that's how these innocent women like men who protect them like that."Keegan was very reluctant, but his brain was more compliant than his body. Without needing to study deliberately, everything he heard stuck in his mind.So when Keegan mentione

    Keegan's expression darkened with anger. "You're being completely unreasonable!"Stella crossed her arms, wearing an expression that seemed challenging. "You let her take it. Let's see if I dare."Jaylene hadn't actually wanted those junk items in the first place; she was deliberately trying to stir up discord between them. Now that her goal was achieved, she put on a sympathetic look."Keegan, I don't want it anymore. Don't be angry. Your health is more important. Didn't the doctor say to keep your emotions stable?"Turning her head, she reproached Stella. "Stella, are you here to help Keegan recover his memory or just to provoke him?""Shut up, you brat! Do you even have a say here?"Acting under the guise of a drama, playing the role of someone lacking in manners, was incredibly satisfying.She’d wanted to curse this brat for a long time!Jaylene's lips twitched, but she held back, tearfully saying, "Stella, if you don't like me, I'll leave. There's no need to humiliate me l

    Jaylene understood the situation perfectly. Even though she didn't particularly like these cold, mechanical devices, she put on a pretense of surprise, saying, "Really, Keegan?"Keegan nodded. "Choose one you like.""Keegan!" Before Stella could finish her sentence, she couldn't hold back her sharp voice, "With your pile of junk that I can't even touch normally, she takes a look and now you want to give it to her? What's the meaning of this?!"Keegan frowned, apparently not comprehending her current anger at all. "Jaylene gave me a gift, and I'm giving her one in return. What's the problem?""What problem?" Stella's eyes started to redden. "I can't touch them, so why should she be able to? Have you forgotten, or do you have inappropriate feelings for her?"Keegan's expression darkened. "This makes no sense!"Jaylene secretly delighted in this, hypocritically trying to calm things down, "Forget it, Keegan. Since Stella minds so much, I don't want it anymore. You've strained your r

    The standoff lasted for over twenty minutes before Keegan grabbed a book and knocked the beetle off Jaylene's neck. The beetle fluttered twice and suddenly flew up, landing on Jaylene's face.Jaylene screamed, rolled her eyes, and fainted.As she collapsed, the bug flew off again."Jaylene?"Keegan called out to her.He looked up at Stella and said, "You go start the car, I'll carry her to the hospital."As he spoke, he signaled to Stella.She understood and coldly grunted, "So troublesome."Walking over to Jaylene, she squatted down beside her and slapped her face twice.Jaylene immediately opened her eyes and reached out to push her away. "What are you doing!"Stella was prepared and had already moved back before she could be pushed.She shook her tingling hand and innocently said, "Jaylene, you fainted because of the bug. I was just saving you. Don't believe me? Ask Keegan."Jaylene nearly ground her teeth. Did she think she hadn't heard? She was intentionally exposing h

    Her fingertips trembled with a mix of horror and excitement. Just as the teapot was about to slip from her grasp, Keegan suddenly said, "Jaylene, don't move."Jaylene froze, instinctively thinking Keegan had regained his memory. She had barely twitched when Keegan loudly stopped her again, "Don't move, absolutely don't move."Jaylene wanted to say something, but then felt an itching sensation on her neck, as if something was crawling slowly. Goosebumps erupted all over her body.By now, Stella had turned around and saw Jaylene standing stiffly with the teapot in hand. Her eyes quickly assessed the situation and then she noticed the beetle crawling on Jaylene's neck.It was an unknown species, not overly tentacled but as long as a little finger, its mouthparts slightly twitching, genuinely alarming in appearance.Stella murmured, "It's so big."Jaylene couldn't see what was on her neck, unsure if it would bite or if it was venomous. She stood frozen in place, her voice trembling,

    Seeing him, Stella even lowered her eyes and softly praised, "Mr. Kane, you acted very well."Keegan glared at her, his voice low and intense. "If you keep watching like this, Coco will cut ties with me tomorrow."Stella replied confidently, "No, she won't. After accepting the red envelope, she can tolerate you a little longer."Keegan asked sharply, "Did you teach her to ask for red envelopes like this?""Don't falsely accuse me; I didn't teach her.""You may not have taught her directly, but you set an example. Have you forgotten how you always make me buy things for you?"Stella was speechless. Whenever she wanted Keegan to buy her something, she would often say, "Gifts are only surprises when given voluntarily. If reminded, it shows they don’t like me that much."It had to be said, Coco had learned the essence of it.Stella also felt a bit awkward, thinking that in the future, she needed to avoid such flirtatious conversations between spouses in front of the children. They

    Could she figure all this out?Keegan frowned, casting a disappointed look at Coco. "Are you not listening to me now?"Coco raised her gaze defiantly and stated, "Aunt Stella taught me that if I don't want something someone gives me, I can say no. I don't want this hairpin.""Didn't she teach you that even if you don't like something, you should still say thank you?"Coco fell silent for a moment, then reluctantly said to Jaylene, "Thank you, Aunt Jaylene, but I don't want it."Jaylene hesitated with her hand extended, unsure whether to retract it or leave it there, managing a strained smile. "Then what do you like? Next time, I will get you something you do like."Coco asked, "Do you want me to do something for you?"Jaylene was taken aback. "What?"Coco replied seriously, "Aunt Stella says offering help without reason is either deceitful or thieving. Since you don't like me, why else would you give me something? You want me to do something for you, right?"Jaylene forced a s

    Leighton's incident did indeed revive their suspicions.Jaylene was gullible, but Darcie might see through this scheme. "Keegan, why didn't you go to work today?" Jaylene chose to ask directly at first.Keegan remained composed. "I've been busy with the press conference lately and haven't had much rest. Now that things have slowed down, I thought I'd take a break and relax."Jaylene spoke gently, "You should rest well. Since you came back, you've been busy, and you've been postponing Dr. Stone's follow-up appointments. Keegan, I'm really worried about your health. Since you're resting these days, I'll arrange for Dr. Stone to give you another check-up. Stella has been living here to assist your recovery for so long. We need the doctor to give a clear assessment of whether there's been any improvement. Otherwise, it's not good for Stella's reputation to stay here so long, unmarried and under one roof."Keegan nodded. "Okay, please arrange it. Thank you."His response was decisive,

    Stella had just descended the stairs when she heard that remark, causing her eyelids to twitch as she thought to herself, “Damn it! He really knows how to come up with excuses!”Upon hearing this, Jaylene's eyes briefly flashed with disdain, but she ultimately accepted the shoe covers Keegan handed her. As Keegan led Jaylene into the house, her eyes continued to scrutinize every corner.There were a couple of pillows on the sofa, couple mugs on the table, wedding photos of Keegan and Stella on the walls, and even headbands and hair ties scattered on the table. The house exuded an unmistakable feminine touch.Jaylene's expression darkened, but when Keegan turned to ask if she preferred tea or coffee, she adopted a gentle, harmless demeanor. "Tea would be perfect."Keegan invited her to take a seat and called for Maria to prepare tea. Jaylene spoke softly, "Keegan, I heard from Stella that you brew Dragon Well tea better than anyone else. Is there a special technique?"Stella paused
