Keegan observed the triumphant figures on stage with a wry smile."You cheeky rascal. I've been asking for that new Frontier drone for ages. You couldn't bear to let me use it even once, but you let Stella use such a high-end gadget for this? I see you're prioritizing love over our friendship," Vermont muttered under his breath.Keegan shot him a glance, "And what would you do about it?""I would escort Miss Bandit to work. Duh. Sounds cool, right?" Vermont defended himself.Keegan gave him a disdainful look."What's that thing?" Felicity asked curiously.Vermont explained, "It's a new drone developed by Keegan's company. It has biometric recognition, target locking, and tracking capabilities. It was originally meant to assist search and rescue teams, but Keegan let Stella use it to catch liars. Quite the waste, isn't it?"Felicity's eyelids twitched at that, 'Didn't he just say he was going to use it to escort me to work? How dare he mock Keegan? But that's not important right

Maggie did not give Barbara's request much thought at first. It was not until Barbara abruptly left the design drafts with her after answering a call that Maggie sensed something was amiss.While a lot of design work is done on computers these days, most designers still prefer hand-drawn sketches.Maggie was familiar with Barbara's habits after knowing her for many years. When Barbara had to step away from her desk in the office, she would always keep her drafts in a drawer and lock it. There was no way she would leave the drafts to pick up a call and have Maggie safeguard them.So, Maggie contacted Stella without hesitation.Stella happened to be with Keegan at the time. He promptly drove her to the scene and used the drone to capture footage. Originally, Maggie had intended to leave the design drafts untouched and wait for Barbara to retrieve them herself.However, Stella believed Barbara would undoubtedly have a backup plan if this were a set-up. It was better to be proactive i

Chad was not pleased with Stella's retort. Unable to outwit her, he redirected his frustration toward Maggie, whom he saw as an easier target, "Maggie, you've been fighting this lawsuit for so many years and still haven't won. So, nursing a grudge, you orchestrated this appalling spectacle to make us all uncomfortable, didn't you?"After setting the microphone down, he lowered his voice and issued a veiled threat, "I'm telling you. If I can make you slip in this industry back in the day, I can do it again."Stella stood close to Maggie and heard every word. She stepped forward to shield her and said in a cold and determined voice, "I sure want to see you try."Maggie looked at Stella and felt her heart racing.Stella turned, thinking Maggie was scared, and whispered, "Don't be afraid. He's all bark and no bite. He wouldn't dare lay a finger on you."Maggie smiled, took the microphone, and addressed the audience, "I have a way to prove which one of us is the true plagiarist."Her

Maggie calmly pointed to her own draft and said, "Unlike your work, mine doesn't feature an openwork design."Barbara responded with a mocking laugh. "That's precisely why I'm saying you're a skillful plagiarist. You would be accused of copying my work if you hadn't tweaked a few things."Maggie's lips curved into a sardonic smile, and her eyes were glinting with resolute determination. She proceeded to highlight a few subtle distinctions. Barbara's impatience grew, and the crowd began to murmur."What kind of standoff is this? It feels like they're just spotting the differences.""I doubt this proves anything. It only shows she's capable of making changes.""I have to admit; Barbara's design does look better after this comparison.""Well, duh. How can plagiarized work be compared with the original?"Barbara was getting upset. But, when she noticed that the audience's sentiments were gradually swaying in her favor, a sense of smugness began to creep in, and she relaxed a little.

Barbara panicked, and she quickly looked to Chad for help.Chad wore a stern expression and remained unyielding. He scoffed at Kenneth's assertion. "You weren't directly involved in the production, Mr. Green. How could you be so certain that this design can't be produced?"Kenneth's face turned pale. "I've been crafting jade for over forty years. I can discern at a glance which designs are feasible and which are not. You can bring someone here to create that piece if you doubt my judgment. If I'm wrong, I'll personally tarnish Emerald Skies Jeweler's reputation!"For a craftsman to stake his own reputation, he must be confident.Tension permeated the room. The audience below murmured, exchanging their thoughts."I'm not following here. What's the issue with not being able to produce it?""If it can't be produced, it means this design is merely a conceptual sketch. To put it bluntly, it's a draft. It's like scoring a hundred on an exam while someone next to you scores zero, and th

"Do you think Barbara earned her reputation on her own? I heard she was the head of the design team at The Velvet before she left. With that kind of authority, who would dare to question her actions? Just look at the jewelry she designed for Kayla. It lacks creativity. It's just a jumble of tacky elements," said someone from the crowd."I find Chad to be the most shameless one in this scenario. When Maggie was plagiarized in Grandeur Gallery and exposed the culprit, he blacklisted her. Now that she left them and joined a new company, she still gets plagiarized by his associates. Did Maggie kill someone in her past life or something? Why do they keep targeting her?""Birds of a feather flock together. None of them are good people.""The integration of the logo is rather smart. Maggie sure is something special. Are these pendants only for old clients? What about potential new clients?""I want one too."Barbara's expression turned ashen. She could not fathom why Maggie had not broug

"I-I let my emotions get the better of me. I didn't think it through. And, Barbara manipulated me. She's the one who plagiarized Maggie's work. If you want to hold someone accountable, she's the one."Chad shifted the blame onto Barbara, trying to distance himself.Stella did not believe his nonsense. She knew that Barbara would not act brazenly if no one backed her up behind the scenes.Barbara grew anxious before Stella could say anything. "Mr. Benson, I came here at your request. Why are you pushing everything on me?"'What a fool! Does she think that her previous outburst wasn't enough?' Chad's voice was stern. "What do you mean you came at my request? Don't be silly. When you gave me the design, you told me it was your original work. That's why I put my position on the line and help you fight for your rights. But, it turns out that you have deceived me. I literally said so many good things about you to the boss earlier. Now, you need to go back and explain everything to him yo

"Guys, that piece is made of alloy, and the jade on it is just leftover scraps. It's so thin that the raw materials probably cost only a few hundred bucks. This is just a marketing strategy to entice people into spending. What's there to brag about?" Someone from the crowd said."Well, someone's bitter. We have to factor in labor costs. Sure, this thing isn't worth much, but they're giving away thousands of it for free. It still costs over a million dollars. And besides, it's not like they're forcing you to buy from them. There's no need to be so petty.""Cartier uses alloy material too. Why didn't anyone think that was cheap? The Velvet is considered high-end jewelry in Hustuabourg with its impeccable quality. Why does everyone put foreign brands on a pedestal but quick to criticize a local brand?""Exactly. Why not donate a million dollars to show your wealth if you think it's too little?"The person's face turned ashen. He was unable to utter a single word in response to the peo

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
