Those few contracts were from companies that the Kane family had linked him up with, so he could not help but suspect that Keegan did that on purpose because he knew something.

'Whether he knows or not, the biases in his words were just too obvious. No matter how cold Keegan is toward Stella, he won't stand by idly and watch her get wronged,' thought Albert.

Albert felt a little annoyed.

'I should've known. But, how could Stella come to the jewelry exhibition alone when Keegan's still injured?' he thought.

At that thought, Albert immediately changed his tone.

"What are you saying, Mr. Snyder? Stella's my only daughter, so I obviously love her. It's just that Sophia was adopted. I feel bad that she's all alone with no one to rely on, so I can't help but sometimes take better care of her. Since you're not a father yet, you obviously wouldn't know how hard it is to be one."

Vermont smiled. Suddenly, he said, "I heard Sophia got a new car a while ago. It cost around 2 million. Keegan

    "You really misunderstood, Mr. Snyder. They're both my daughters, so I naturally won't side with any one of them. When Stella got married, money was tight for me, so her dowry seemed a little meager. The car Sophia drove is mine. She went to pick it up for me. In the future, she'll drive the old car. After all, she'll need a car as a mode of transportation to go to work."Vermont raised a brow. "Is that so? Since you are now well-off, you should compensate your daughter's dowry. Otherwise, how embarrassing would it be if others heard about this?"His flattery put Albert on the spot.'Doesn't he have a public persona of loving women? He'll have to demonstrate it somehow, right?' wondered Vermont.Albert's expression stiffened, as he was resentful and furious. However, he suppressed his emotions and said with a smile, "Of course. I'll prepare it when I get home."Suddenly, Keegan peered at the bracelet Stella was looking at earlier on. Then, he said coolly, "The color of this bracel

    Keegan glanced at Stella's expression. Her eyes were narrowed and seductive as if she was a fox that had eaten to its heart's content.He swallowed. Just as he was about to speak, Vermont cut in and teased, "Stella, why don't you ask if the bracelet comes with a free gift? Keegan looked like he likes free gifts."Keegan's expression darkened. "Since when did I like free gifts?"Vermont blinked."Did Stella give your pair of socks to Marshall after you two had a fight last time?"Stella chortled. "It's not that he doesn't like free gifts; he just isn't happy with me casually disposing of his things. It's simply him being possessive."'Possessive...' thought Vermont.He smiled with his eyes for a while. Just then, someone came over looking for him. After he bid them goodbye, he walked away.Stella grabbed Keegan's hand. "Come on. Pick one."Keegan lowered his gaze and looked at Stella's pale, smooth palm. Then, he slightly tightened his grip.'I always say that all Stella think

    Stella did not lift her head. "Back then, I already have someone I like, so why waste other people's time?"Keegan froze. Then, his gaze involuntarily darkened."How's this one?" Stella stood up.She added, "Take a look. What do you think?"Keegan lowered his gaze and glanced at it, "As expected of your aesthetic."Stella smiled. Just as she was about to take the credit, she heard the rude bastard casually finish the rest of his sentence. "It's tasteless as usual."The smile on Stella's face froze. She removed the cufflinks in irritation and returned them to the salesperson.Keegan thought she would pick him a new pair. In the end, she leisurely went over to look at the diamonds.After she looked at the rings, she looked at the necklaces. Once she finished looking at the necklaces, she looked at the bracelets. However, she just would not look at the cufflinks.Keegan followed by her side. Finally, he could not help but ask, "Aren't you buying me cufflinks?"Stella finally had

    Sophia blurted out, "It's so unfair! What right does Stella have!"She married into a wealthy family and has the Kanes backing her up. She is useful to the Jewells now. So, of course, your father would take her side," Hylda replied calmly. "Put more effort into getting a good match. Then, your father would pay more attention to you.""No family in Rivera could compare to the Kanes," Sophia said nonchalantly.Hylda frowned. "Don't target the Kanes. The only marriageable option left is Jackson Kane. In all aspects, there is too much of a difference between him and Keegan. Plus, he has a bad reputation. He's a womanizer, not a good choice for marriage.Sophia scoffed. "What about Keegan Kane?"Hylda's heart sank. "Don't even think about it. Keegan wouldn't take any interest in you. Even if he does, he would just fool around with you. He won't marry you. Do you really want to go through what I've been through?"Sophia pursed her lips and remained silent, but she was unconvinced. 'If

    Carter, however, was very talkative. He chatted for a long time with Keegan.Lowe's Corporate specialized in web development and could be considered one of the most advanced technologies in the country. They had many dealings with the Vinci Rivera Group.The data processing system that the Vinci Rivera Group was equipped with was created by Lowe's Corporate. It could be said that the two companies had a close partnership in their businesses.Stella stood aside in boredom as she was uninterested in the topic of their conversation. She thought, 'Keegan's conversation might take a while. Should I leave?'As she was thinking, Carter suddenly asked, "What's keeping you busy these days, Mrs. Kane?"Stella snapped back to reality. "Nothing much, apart from tending to the garden at home. I'm quite the idler.""I heard you took theater when you were in college, Mrs. Kane. Don't you take acting gigs?"Suspicion rose in Stella's heart. 'Why would he ask about my acting career out of the bl

    Stella also discovered that the director of Jurisdiction was a well-experienced producer. He did a similar show for another TV channel more than ten years ago, and it was a big hit. A few years later, however, due to changes in the TV channel and some business disputes, the show got canceled.Until this day, the show was unforgettable in the minds of audiences. It was so popular that even now, many content creators derive their videos from elements of the show.With him on the show, even if the new show was a complete replica of his hit show back then, the views and ratings would be more than decent.Stella's heart was racing with excitement. 'It was the right choice to attend this jewelry exhibition. A work opportunity came to me by itself!"To avoid seeming overeager, she pretended to hesitate. "I am indeed interested, but I haven't had an acting gig all these years. I'm worried that I might hinder the filming progress."Carter suddenly chuckled.Stella glanced at Carter. His e

    But then again, Stella was just a young girl. How good could her alcohol tolerance be?After raising a toast to seven or eight tables of guests, she was already a little dizzy.Like a wolf in sheep's clothing, the people who were well-dressed in their day-to-day lives were toasting the bride with the strongest of liquors at this disgusting wedding scene.Stella had already drunk too much. If she had continued on, she would have spent her wedding night in the Intensive Care Unit instead of her new home."You toasted with all the other tables of guests, so why not us? Come on, aren't you gonna pay us respect?"The guests at the table went back and forth, coercing her to raise a toast. However, out of nowhere, someone snatched the glass out of Stella's grip and splashed it across the face of the person who initiated the coercion.With an angry expression on his face, the man who snatched the glass chuckled as he mocked, "Why don't you piss off and look at your own reflection.

They did not spend the night at the resort and hurried back home.Meanwhile, Zane drowned on the night they left.There were a lot of rumors surrounding the truth of Zane's death, but the Lowes never explained what happened that night. They just stated that it was an accident.Even the guests that spent the night in the hotel that night had no idea what went down. When they knew that something had happened, Zane was already in an ambulance to the hospital and was announced dead not long after.The wedding became a funeral for the death of a young man.One could only guess how the Lowes felt tha

    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
