Upon seeing Stella, Felicity immediately sat next to her and talked about various things, from work to life. Stella could tell that Felicity was feeling very contented.After drinking a glass of water, Felicity suddenly remembered the important stuff. "By the way, you texted me saying you wanted me to write you a short drama. What kind of short drama is it?"Stella took out the rough plot she had drafted in the office that afternoon and handed it to Felicity. "It's going to be about these character settings and storyline. Take a look and see if you can write it."Felicity read it briefly and smiled. "This is perfect, but we need to come up with another narrative style. This is too slow; audiences nowadays prefer revenge-themed stories. We just need to make some minor changes to it."She then discussed the storyline as she envisioned it with Stella. Stella nodded and said, "Okay. I feel like I'm watching it already, just listening to you."Felicity replied excitedly, "I'll stay up
Stella froze for a moment as if she understood. But she did not.Felicity spoke even more straightforwardly, "What my mom meant was that we must have a child. If Stinky Cucumber can't give me a child, then my mom will never agree to our relationship, no matter what."She needs someone to inherit her 'throne'. I'm not up to the task, so she plans to have a little successor."Stella was speechless.'It seems like our roles are switched,' she thought. Then, she asked bewilderedly, "What 'throne' does your mom have?"Felicity hesitated for a moment before pointing at the Deron Supermart at the side. "Can you see that supermarket over there?"Stella glanced over, looked at it, and thought, 'What does one of the top ten supermarket chains in the country have to do with her mom?'Then, she heard Felicity continuing, "She founded Deron Supermart. Also, she has a lot of vegetable and fruit plantations, livestock breeding bases, various beverage and meat processing factories..."Stella w
"What do you plan to do now, then?" Stella asked.Felicity sighed upon hearing that. "Stinky Cucumber is such a fool. I went to his room wearing a nightdress one night, and he asked me to play games with him until he fell asleep!"He's always so flirtatious with me, but he becomes so clueless given the chance. I really don't know what's going on in his empty brain!"Stella laughed as she thought to herself, 'This is so funny. Vermont is trying so hard to meet Florence and get her approval of their relationship, yet all Felicity wants now is to sleep with him.'Felicity was feeling frustrated. When she saw Stella laughing, she suddenly asked, "Stella, how do you hint to Keegan that you're in the mood?"Suddenly, Stella could not laugh anymore.But Felicity got excited. "Come on, share your experience with me so I can take Stinky Cucumber down!""... I don't have any."Felicity glared at her. "How could you get pregnant then?"Stella did not feel like sharing this with Felicity.
Stella glanced at the bedroom door and whispered to Vermont, "Exercise more and make sure to eat more folic acid. Soon, your wish will come true."Vermont was puzzled.Then, he handed the fork on the table to Stella and thoughtfully pushed the fruit plate closer to her, humbly seeking her advice."Exercise for what? I wanted to know when I can finally meet miss bandit's parent."Stella speared a piece of apple with the fork. "And I am telling you how you can do that as soon as possible."Vermont paused before he suddenly said, "Are you suggesting that I should jump the gun so she'll have no choice but to marry me?"'Folic acid is for boosting fertility, isn't it?' Vermont wondered to himself.After a moment of silence, Stella said, "You can think of it that way if you want."She figured that she could not possibly tell Vermont that his mother-in-law was worried that he was incapable of having children, so she wanted to test him before meeting him. It would be too hurtful.Verm
Stella sighed. "Do you have a better plan?"Felicity scratched her head. After a long pause, she said, "I'll sleep with him first, and if I get pregnant, we'll get married. Otherwise, I'll think of another way. Regardless, I'm not going to marry anyone else other than him."I don't want to argue with my mom because I want to be with him. She's raised me and suffered so much for me. Even if Vermont is incapable of having a baby with me, I'll try my best to find a middle ground."Florence was very successful in her career. That was why she had the confidence to blatantly state her attitude toward choosing her son-in-law.Stella even thought that Florence might not only want them to have a child just for the sake of it, but she might also want to test Vermont's loyalty.Vermont's anger went away just as quickly as it flared up. After Keegan arrived, the four of them had dinner together.When Stella was going back home, she texted Vermont in the car, subtly hinting that he should com
It did not take Stella long to find out what Keegan was going to get ready for.He did not lie because apart from kissing her, he indeed did not do anything to her.However, Stella could not accept that he was doing it himself while staring at her!She had always thought that Keegan was a conservative person when it came to these things. Other than his strange obsessions with certain costumes, he would act so gentlemanly most of the time. He would never do anything inappropriate to her.After all, he blushed and scolded Stella just because she mentioned the word "outercourse".But tonight, Keegan did the unexpected; he kissed her while attending to himself.His eyes were steamy, and his movement was sensual. Stella blushed and felt very shy, so she turned her head away and stared at the clock.Keegan chuckled and said in a hoarse voice, "Stella, do you know why I like to you see in ancient costumes?"Stella's neck felt hot listening to his breath, and her head was spinning. "Wh
Stella continued to tease Keegan. She said, "Mr. Kane, as someone in R&D, you should know the importance of data, right? How could you ever manipulate them?"His eyelid twitched as he sneered. "If you keep blabbering, I'm going to conduct a control experiment on you and redo the data collection!"Stella kept her mouth shut but kept blinking her eyes at him.Keegan reached out to cover them and kissed her fiercely. Then, he said through gritted teeth, "Close your eyes! It's time to sleep!"Stella chuckled, rested her head on his shoulder, and hugged him.Just as she was about to fall asleep, her phone rang.Keegan tapped her. "Why didn't you put it on silent?""I forgot." Stella took her phone, intending to turn the silent mode on. Then, she suddenly saw a text from Marshall.[Stella, do you know Luanna Saab?]Marshall attached a photo with that message.When Stella read it, she sat up abruptly.Keegan was startled by her sudden movement and opened his eyes, asking, "What's w
Stella was speechless. She then tugged at Keegan's hair and gritted her teeth. "What are you doing?"He pressed her against his chest. "Have you forgotten what you promised me before?""What?"Keegan swept his glance across her. "You promised to handle my other lover, and I'll handle yours."Stella glowered at him. "Marshall Moore is not my secret lover!"Keegan sneered. "Then is Jaylene Saun mine?"Stella was taken aback.Keegan gazed at her and gave her phone back. Then, he said with lowered eyes, "Forget about what I said. Reply to his message yourself. I've said so many hurtful things to you before I recover my memory."I get it if you don't trust me. I shouldn't have demanded that you trust me like I trust you."After speaking, he turned over and had his back facing her. "Go answer his call," he said flatly.Stella kept quiet.Although he did not say anything to blame her, his words made her feel very uncomfortable. She patted his shoulder and said softly, "It's not tha
