Eastern Alley Welfare Center is small. They did not accept any new kids these two years. Including Shelley and the others, fewer than twenty people were in the center.

Rainee transferred a hundred thousand dollars to them every month. This was enough to keep this small welfare center going.

'A hundred thousand dollars. It should be enough.'

Julian pursed his lips, "The donation from Ms. Spade has stopped since last October."

Stella's expression changed, "What did you mean by stopped?"

Julian did not know much. Once, when he went to find Shelley, he overheard the conversation between Shelley and Cecilia at Shelley's door. Only then did he know that the Jewell family's donation had stopped since October last year.

The social donation to the welfare center was very limited. They mainly needed donations from the Jewell family to keep the center going. So, when the donation stopped, the welfare center did not last long until they encountered difficulty.

Initially, Shelley thought som

    A light gray tarp was covering the safe. There were dishes on it, as Shelley used it as a dining table. Shelley said, "Your mom gave it to me a month before she got into the accident. She said some critical documents and ledgers for the company were stored inside. I was told to keep it safe no matter what and not to disclose it to anyone. The things inside were vital to her; she would find time and get them back. But she got into an accident before she could come and retrieve it."Shelley sighed, "I intended to send them to your father after something happened to your mother. Yet, he had a horrible tone when I mentioned your mother on every phone call and hung up before we could even communicate. Hence, I did not bring it up again. If you hadn't asked me about it, I would have totally forgotten about this."After Stella's mother had an accident, Albert was focused on dealing with the company. He even wanted to give up a few times. Stella was not surprised that he was preoccupied duri

    No matter how late it was, Stella would always apply a face mask and do her skincare routine before sleeping. She originally had a great complexion and paid extra attention to caring for herself. It can be said that she had delicate skin.Keegan watched as she worked on herself at the dressing table for half an hour before bed. Her skincare products were not aromatic. Only the faint fragrance of her body shampoo wafted from her. The light sandalwood fragrance inexplicably stirred up his emotion.Stella closed her eye, thinking about unlocking the safe tomorrow, and wondered what Rainee could have put in the hidden safe. Ultimately, she found the safe because she asked Shelley about it when she inadvertently found the numbers on the tape. 'Was it the company's important documents and account book? Why did she need to hide it?'As Stella was lost in thought, she suddenly felt a heavy weight on her body. She opened her eyes to find Keegan leaning over her and looking at her with his bu

    Stella was so tired that she did not want to open her eyes. She even thought that Keegan was annoying, talking beside her. She drawled, "Was it because you thought I did a good job serving you yesterday, so you're rewarding me some whoring fee?"The corner of Keegan's eyes twitched. "Let's be clear. Who was the one serving yesterday? The part where you moved a little while lying down?"Stella...Stella was never submissive in dissing Keegan's opponent, so she retorted with thick skin, "I was merely being real. You seemed to enjoy hearing my moans."She even acted like the actresses in porn and grunted twice. Her main purpose was to tease Keegan. Yet, her voice was hoarse since it was just after the lovemaking. She was being pretentious, but in his ears, she sounded a whole different way.His eyes darkened. He grabbed Stella's thin and soft waist and said in a deep voice, "If you moan a few more times, no one will be sleeping tonight."Stella shuddered instantly and did not dare t

    Keegan remembered his promise and told her he had forgotten it. Stella was upset with him, but she did not express it. However, she has been acting oddly irritating and shady ever since. Every morning, when Keegan dressed up and wore his watch, Stella would mock beside him, "Well, that's a nice watch, Mr. Kane."At first, Keegan thought she was casually asking, so he replied, "It was a gift from grandma." The next day, Stella still asked him the same question when he was wearing his watch. "Well, that's a nice watch, Mr. Kane."Keegan frowned. 'Is she stupid? She just asked me this question yesterday. Has she forgotten it already?' Stella continued asking him the same question when he was wearing his watch on the third day. "Well, that's a nice watch, Mr. Kane."A whole week later, Keegan realized with hindsight. Stella had a good memory. Instead, she was intentionally shady, blaming him for forgetting to return home with her gift. After half a month, Keegan was finally fed up with

    Stella snorted, "You won't be held responsible even if there was a mishap. So tell me, are you going to buy it or not?"Keegan glanced at her, "Go to sleep. Everything you want will be in your dreams."Stella was silenced. 'Bastard!'The next day, Stella had already left when Keegan woke up. She appeared to be really energized after being so exhausted last night. Aldor reported that Albert had signed the stock purchase contract regarding Semiconductor Technology. 80 million dollars was wired to the company's account. Albert has probably been waiting for this very day for too long as the money was instantly transferred to the company's account.Semiconductor Technology will be listed on Northon Trading Center on May 29th. From past conservative evaluations, the company's share price was expected to increase by sixty points on the day of the listing. So if Albert sold them on the same day, after deducting some fees, he would still receive tens of millions in profit.Aldor felt Keega

    Keegan almost popped a vein. "You know about Toy Boy too?""Stella is a big fan of his. She likes his videos every day.""You know her Instagram account name?"Vermont paused and took a guess, "You don't know what's your own wife's Instagram account name?"When Instagram had just become famous, Vermont registered an account for Keegan. But after he bought a new phone, he did not download the application, let alone use it.Keegan pursed his lips. "I don't have it downloaded."Vermont's jaw fell open. 'No wonder Keegan was so chill about Stella looking at handsome guys online daily. I thought he was so liberal that he could accept his wife cheating on him mentally. It turns out he doesn't have the slightest idea of it.'Vermont thought about the videos that Stella had liked, cleared his throat, and advised, "I think you shouldn't download the app if you don't use it much."For days, Keegan got mad at Stella for giving Marshall a pair of socks. If he saw the videos that Stella had

    Stella pulled her phone further away from her ear. She waited for Felicity to stop screaming and said, "He took the initiative to ask you out?""Kinda," Felicity responded evasively.He did not really ask Felicity out.Doctor Steven's full name was Corbin Steven. He was 28 years old and worked as a doctor in the breast surgery department.Ever since Felicity added Corbin on WhatsApp, she kept initiating conversations with him. For example, she would ask him about his favorite food, books he was interested in, movie genres he liked, and things like that. In other words, she was trying to probe him about his preferences.Corbin would reply to her when free, but he did not say much each time.Felicity wanted to ask him out to watch a movie, but Corbin said he might not make it as he was attending a friend's birthday party.As soon as Felicity began to understand how it feels to like someone, she became much more unashamed than Stella. According to her own words, the chances of find

    Usually, Felicity would not even look in Vermont's way if she had encountered him by chance. But, in order to pursue Corbin, she went all out.'Even if I don't know Vermont, he is now my close friend.'"You're my best friend. Don't you want to see your bestie find her own happiness?""If you don't bring me along tonight, I'll put a curse on you so you won't get laid for five years!"Stella grinned.'This curse is way too evil!' she thought to herself.Stella glanced at Felicity. "Vermont is really stingy. You better bring him a birthday gift, or else I can't promise that they won't throw you out of the party."Felicity beamed, and her eyes resembled crescent moons. "Okay!""I have one more favor to ask, and if you don't promise to help me...""If you dare to curse me to five years without sex, I'll curse you to never be with Corbin.""I wasn't talking about that. I just wanted to ask you if you could do my makeup for me and give me a makeover." Felicity paused. "You weren't e

    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
