When they went in, Stella's face was pale while she lay down on the couch. She struggled to a sitting position when she heard the noises.

Cordelia immediately said, "Don't move, my good girl. You should just lie down."

"Grandma"

Cordelia kindly said, "How are you? Are you feeling better?"

"I still feel nauseous. But, I feel a lot better than just now. I'm sorry that I made you worry."

"It's okay as long as you're fine. I thought..." Cordelia paused for a moment before she sighed. "Forget it. Get well soon."

While Cordelia was whispering to Stella, Dahlia suddenly received a message on her phone.

She lowered her head and took a look at it. She frowned slightly, and her eyes looked abruptly gloomy.

She then pursed her lips as she put her phone away. She stepped forward and said, "Mom, why don't we send Stella back? The exhibition is ending soon anyway. And, you've been standing for a long time. You should go home and rest."

Cordelia nodded. She turned her head to Keegan and said

    Aurora held an empty pill box in her hand, and it was the same one that Stella had thrown into the trash after taking her birth control pill the day before.Stella wondered how it ended up back in her room, considering Maya had cleaned it yesterday.But, before she could ponder any further, Dahlia's expression turned grim as she took the pill box from Aurora and read the text on it. Dahlia questioned Stella, "What is this, Stella Jewell? Why is there a birth control pill box in your room?"Stella's face went pale. This time, she did not fake it. She was startled.Cordelia, who was still in the dark about the situation, asked in confusion, "What's going on? What is that?"Dahlia's grim expression remained as she explained, "It's a box of birth control pills. No wonder she hasn't become pregnant yet. They've been using contraception, Cordelia."Cordelia was taken aback. "Contraception?" she asked, looking at the box and then at Stella before turning to Keegan. "Keegan, did you make

    "But that doesn't guarantee a hundred percent protection," said Stella. "With our divorce impending, I don't want to take any chances. The thought of having an abortion at the hospital and the pain it would cause just terrifies me."Keegan felt uneasy. He cleared his throat and said, "When that happens, no one will force you to get an abortion. We can keep the baby."Stella paused and turned to face Keegan. She then spoke in a serious tone. "Keegan, I don't want my child to share their father's love with anyone else. If I do end up pregnant, I won't want to have the baby." Stella did not want her child to go through the same thing that she had experienced.Keegan's heart suddenly constricted. His face suddenly turned sulky, as he said, "Then, that would be great. I wouldn't want a burden during the divorce either!"With that, Keegan walked away with a serious expression. His arm accidentally knocked over a plant, and a pot of freesia tumbled to the ground and shattered into pieces.

    'So, she's the assistant job candidate that Felicity recommends,' Stella thought. She then greeted Shea with a handshake. "Nice to meet you," she said.Shea, who was calm, responded with a handshake. "Nice to meet you too, Ms. Jewell. Felicity told you about my situation, right?"Stella nodded. "You have a son, and you need to take care of him on weekends."Shea nodded as well. She was a little nervous when she said, "If it's not convenient for you, I can arrange full daycare services for my son on weekends since it's close to where I live. I really need this job."Stella took her time to make a decision and asked Shea a few simple questions.Shea answered them fluently, showcasing her experience in the assistant role. She had previously worked with A-list and B-list artists for eight years at the age of nineteen, and she resigned at twenty-seven. With her extensive experience, Shea could be considered a veteran in show business.Shea had left show business for the sake of her ma

    Shea was a little excited, but her tone was calm. "Okay, I can sign the contract now."Stella smiled. "The contract is still in the works. But, once it's all set, I'll have Felicity send it over to you. I have a skit to film today, so I may need to ask you to come in and work."Felicity was taken aback. "What skit?"On their way there, Stella told Felicity about Lena asking her for help last night."I'll play the role for the good of the public without pay."Felicity was all for it after hearing about it. "This is a great opportunity. Typically, skit jobs don't pay much, but doing it for a good cause is a rare chance to make an impact. Plus, when one of your drama series becomes popular, people will look into your past. Having this on your resume will give you a big advantage. I'm not saying we're building a persona for you, but once you're in showbiz, you have to play by the rules. We need to be careful. Just because we're not hurting others doesn't mean that others will act the

    Stella put on her coat and said with a smile, "Actually, I have nothing to do in these two weeks. You can contact me any time when you need me to be on set."In order to thank Stella, Lena wanted to invite her for dinner after the shooting had ended.However, Stella politely declined it.Although she came to offer her help, in the end, it was for her own sake. Besides, she and Lena were only acquaintances. She was afraid that it would become awkward when they dined together.Stella dropped Shea off at Shea's place before driving to Cordelia's.The closer she got to Cordelia's home, the more uncertain and nervous she became.She had been a part of the Kane family for many years, but without Cordelia's support, there would be no place for her in that family.But now, she had let Cordelia down. Cordelia was the one who had always been there for her. Stella was so disappointed in herself that she could not even find the courage to apologize.Dahlia had been pressing Stella to have

    With a loud "clatter", all six tapes fell to the ground, and the caretaker quickly rushed to pick them up.Stella glanced up. As soon as she noticed something peculiar about the tapes, she shouted, "Don't move!"The caretaker was startled. She froze in place and did not dare to pick them up. She said nervously, "I... I didn't mean to. I don't think they are broken."Instead of explaining herself, Stella walked over and crouched down to take a closer look.She discovered that the song lists of the tapes were marked with numbers using pens, and each tape had a unique number.Stella picked up the tapes and got up to rummage through the other tapes. There were more than two hundred of them, but only six tapes were marked with numbers.'This can't be a coincidence,' Stella thought.Seeing Stella's solemn expression, the caretaker whispered, "Stella, why don't you play them to see if any of them are broken? I'll pay for any damages."Only then did Stella come back to her senses. She

    Keegan wondered, 'Maya was on vacation yesterday, and she didn't come to work until noon today. How could she possibly know what happened last night?'Maya was startled as she realized that she had let something slip. She quickly averted her gaze and said, "I-I heard it from your mother.""Mom talked to you about this?" Keegan asked with a frown.Maya stammered, "Sh-She was in a bad mood today... She accidentally mentioned this when she was talking to me, and I remembered it."'Mom wouldn't share our family's private affairs with Maya, even if she didn't like Stella. How could she talk to Maya about this? Maya's story is full of holes! Stella isn't stupid enough to leave an empty pillbox on the table, especially one from a few days ago." As he thought this over, Keegan's face darkened."Maya, go to the HR department tomorrow morning to settle your salary and don't come back again."Maya was stunned. She asked, "Are you firing me?"Keegan gave her a cold glance. "You can resign o

    Maya could not utter any more words. She gritted her teeth, got up, and left with reddened eyes.Stella had not returned that night. The next morning, when she came back after buying breakfast, she was bombarded with calls.When she saw that it was Dahlia calling, her eyebrows instantly furrowed. She took a deep breath and tapped her phone to answer.But, before she could speak, Dahlia asked, "Stella, did you ask Keegan to fire Maya?"Stella was confused. "Fire what? What are you talking about, Dahlia?""Keegan fired Maya. Maya came crying to me early in the morning. What did Maya do wrong that you have to fire her?"'Did Keegan fire Maya?' Stella frowned. "Dahlia, I was caring for my mom in the hospital last night. I don't know what happened at home.""You don't know?! Keegan blew up at Maya because of you! He's still recovering from his injury, and yet you ran to the hospital to take care of your mom. She's been bedridden for years. Do you really need to be there for her? Seri

    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
