"Says the one who wasn't even there," Trevor grunted. The anger in his heart subsided after seeing that Keegan did not have a comeback. He even tried to add more fuel to the fire by saying, "Marshall's a reliable man. Not to mention, my grandparents like him. He'd be a much better candidate for marriage than you."

Keegan's eyelids twitched at the sound of that. "Don't you even... Stella doesn't like him like that!"

"She's just saying that because you're here. I bet she would fall for Marshall if you broke things off with her and let them spend one-on-one time together. What do you say?"

Trevor's suggestion did not provoke Keegan. "No," the man said in the firmest tone.

"You wimp!" Trevor berated him. As soon as he said that, he could hear Stella's voice coming from the other line. "Why is Mr. Saun scolding you again?"

Keegan looked up, and his tone immediately turned soft, "I don't know... Maybe because he doesn't like me..."

Trevor was at a loss for words. 'What an asshole!' He

    "You're the one who's been working so hard to teach me, Ms. Jewell. You should be the one who takes the first sip," said Keegan."All I did was order you around. You're the one who put in the work. So, after you," Stella insisted.Keegan put on a generous act and said, "Fish stew is great for healing wounds."Stella did not back down. "Fish stew is good for the brain. You should drink up since you use your brain so much at work."Keegan looked at the bowl of stew that radiated a strange smell before him and pondered for a moment. "Why don't we order takeout instead?" he suggested."It would be a pity if we just throw this out, though. The fish was 30 dollars per pound," Stella pretentiously said."That's true." Keegan thought about it for a moment and continued, "I know a way to not waste it.""What's the plan?" Stella curiously asked.Keegan did not say anything. He took a picture of the pot of stew with his phone and sent it to Leighton.Leighton was lying on the couch, look

    Stella did not say a word. She would have thought Keegan was complimenting her if she did not know him well.The pot of fish stew was delivered to Leighton's residence half an hour later. As a famous celebrity, Leighton had strict rules about his food intake to maintain a healthy figure. He had been particularly opposed to eating at night since the start of his career. Other than when he was out for social gatherings, Leighton had never eaten anything after 8:00 p.m. Even if it was after a late-night shoot.His manager, Estelle, was surprised to see him run down the stairs when the doorbell rang, and he came in with a pot and a bag of fruits. She stood in the living room with her takeout and said as she ate her food, "I just asked if you wanted some dinner, and you said no. Yet, you ordered takeout?"Leighton carefully carried the pot into the house and grunted, "Do restaurants give you their pots when you order from them?"Estelle was stunned. "Don't tell me it's a gift from one o

    The fish stew looked murky and tasted fishy. It was also salty, spicy, and a little burned The weird combination of flavors made it almost inedible.Leighton was in absolute shock when he took the first sip. He had never eaten something as disgusting as that before."Does it taste bad?" Estelle could not help but ask after she saw his reaction.As a fan of Dusk Galaxy, Leighton vowed to defend his idol's image until the end. So, he said, "No. It's pretty tasty.""Then, why did you spit it out?""It was too hot," Leighton stubbornly said.Estelle did not bother to continue the conversation and said, "I'm gonna go wash up. Remember to go to bed after you finished your stew. We have work tomorrow.""Yeah, yeah."After Estelle left, Leighton stared at the pot of stew and thought, 'Should I just throw it out? Stella did make it for me, but it's literally so hard to swallow.'Leighton frowned, as he thought about what he should do with the food. Then, he suddenly remembered Keegan's

    When Keegan was about to hang up, Aldor suddenly said, "Mr. Kane, are you… Are you okay?"Keegan was confused by his question. "Huh? What do you mean?"Aldor cleared his throat and said, "The things on the internet are fake. Just take them with a grain of salt, Mr. Kane. There's no need to be mad because of the comments. It's not worth it."Feeling puzzled, Keegan frowned and said, "What the hell are you talking about?""Haven't you seen the latest news?" asked Aldor."What news?"Aldor paused. "It's better if you check it out yourself, Mr. Kane. I gotta go." Not wanting to be the target of Keegan's wrath, Aldor dropped the suspense and fled.Keegan's face turned black the moment he opened Facebook.The title of an entertainment news popped up, and it read, [The Celibate Lawyer and The Vivacious Actress]Keegan clicked on the post and saw photos of Marshall shielding Stella from the people. There were also videos of him confronting the haters in a calm and educated manner. His

    [We're just friends, for now.]Marshall's comment implied that he was in the process of courting Stella and that they were still friends. To no one's surprise, the group of netizens underneath his post thought so too. A few of them asked him how he met Stella, while others asked him how far along he was. Some even gave him ideas on how he could pursue her.The more Keegan read the comments, the angrier he was. He was afraid that he would affect Stella's career and only dared to show off their relationship in front of Vermont. 'Marshall works with celebrities all the time. Doesn't he know how an ambiguous comment like that could affect a rising star's reputation?' he thought. In the end, he began to tense up and decided to call Vermont.Vermont had just gotten off the plane and was still pretending to be sick while Felicity was holding all the luggage. However, he was not to blame for not carrying his own stuff. Felicity was so guilt-ridden that she did not let Vermont do anything be

    Felicity walked over and handed Vermont a bottle of water. "Do you want to sit and rest for a while?" she asked in a low voice.Vermont smiled, nodded, and walked to the side with his cell phone. "Let Stella know that you don't feel comfortable with the situation. Don't tell her what to do though. Just tell her where it hurts. You have to be tactful in love. Don't just rush into things, and don't try to keep things from your partner. Let her in on everything and exaggerate the situation sometimes."If there is a third party in the relationship, it's useless to target them. You have to target the person you're with! Only dumbasses would target the other party. It'll make you look like a clown, and the third party would get what they want!""Well, there is no third party in our relationship. Stella only likes me," said Keegan."If you say so. Remember to talk to her. My ride's here. I'll talk to you later." Seeing Felicity approach him, Vermont immediately hung up the phone.Keegan

    "It's not okay to look at someone's phone," Keegan asserted.Stella looked at him and asked, "Is it okay to set my birthday as your phone password?"Keegan did not know what to say to that."Come here," Stella said while she made a beckoning gesture."Can you be more polite? Don't call me over like I'm a dog."Stella was getting annoyed. "Are you coming over or not?"'Never again,' Keegan mumbled to himself as he got ready to suffer the consequences of his actions. When he walked over, Stella pushed him onto the bed and nestled into his arms.Keegan paused and whispered, "I haven't showered yet.""It's okay. I don't mind if you stink.""It's better to wash up before intercourse. 80 percent of gynecological diseases are related to having unhygienic sex. The vast majority of people with these diseases get them from partners who don't pay attention to their personal hygiene," Keegan whispered.Stella was a little taken aback after hearing him say that. "You know a lot about this

    Keegan's brow instantly relaxed. "I didn't say I didn't trust you. Why do you have to make such a formal clarification?" he asked.Not wanting to go easy on him, Stella immediately said, "I won't post it, then."Keegan quickly grabbed her cell phone and clicked the post button. After doing that, he turned to look at Stella and saw that she had a smirk on her face, which made him feel a little uncomfortable.Stella leaned closer and said, "You're quite the master."Keegan did not know what she meant."The master of denial."Her words left Keegan speechless.Vermont and Felicity got off the plane and went on a two-hour car ride to town.It was 11:00 p.m. Unlike the city, the stores on both sides of the street were closed at that hour. With the occasional convenience store or adult store open, hardly anyone was on the road.Vermont saw Felicity sweating profusely and could not bear it. Hence, he offered to carry the luggage himself."No. That's alright. We're almost home," Felic

    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
