For a brief moment, Keegan thought that he heard Stella wrongly.Everyone else around him was just as shocked as him to hear that.Albert was exposed for having a love child and Rainee just passed away. Stella had no one to support her anymore in the Jewell family, yet she wanted to divorce Keegan before the Kane family abandoned her. It was just an insane thing to do.Keegan's gaze turned dark after he came back to his senses. "It's not the time to talk about this now."Albert got nervous too as he scolded, "Stella, what nonsense are you talking about?"Stella ignored him and said to Keegan, "To me, now's the best time. Didn't we agree on divorcing after you came back from this business trip? We should honor that agreement now that you're back. Let's make our way to the civil affairs office and get it done, so we won't have to meet again tomorrow."Keegan's face immediately turned cold.There were so many people at the cemetery looking at them, yet Stella asked him for a divorc
Dahlia shot Stella a glance. Then, she smirked and left too.Albert felt like he was about to explode with rage. He immediately went after Dahlia when he saw her leaving.Everybody else followed suit after the Kanes left.Most of them only came here for the Kane family's sake. There was no reason for them to stay anymore since Stella was going to divorce Keegan.Trevor only went to Stella and said after most of the guests left. "Mrs. Kane..."Stella cut him off. "Mr. Saun, you don't have to speak any further if you're going to convince me not to divorce him."Trevor was stunned. Then, he smiled and said in a gentle voice, "I was just asking if you have any plans after this."Stella gazed downward. "Not for now."Too many things happened in these few days, and she still had not composed herself."Would you be interested to join Elegant Media?" Trevor asked in a gentle manner, looking very friendly. "Keegan owns some company shares of Neon Nebula, but Elegant Media is a totally
Felicity thought that Stella was fine until she heard her sobbing in the living when she woke up in the middle of the night to get some water.Stella was not as tough as she looked. She was just not willing to expose her weakness to somebody else.She had no one left to depend on anymore now that Rainee had passed away.Felicity sat against the door. She listened to Stella crying and got sad too.Then, she sent her mother a text message. [Mom, I won't make you mad anymore. Please live longer and spend more time with me.]Felicity's mom replied to her after a few seconds: [You're crazy!]Felicity was speechless.Indeed, showing affection was not a thing for her and her mother.On the other hand, Keegan just got home, and Maria started cleaning things up.Keegan untied his tie and looked in the hallway. He realized that most of Stella's belongings were still in the same place as if they were never moved.He frowned and said, "Did she not come back home these days?""No, sir. T
"Mr. Kane. It's already nine. Where are you?"Keegan pursed his lips. "I'll be there in a while.""How long is a while? Five minutes? Ten minutes? Give me a specific time."Keegan frowned. "We've spent three years together. Can't you just wait for a while more?""I can't," Stella said flatly. "I couldn't even spend another second with you when I started to have the idea of divorcing you. Please be here earlier. You're not the type of person that would dawdle around."Then, she hung up.From afar, Keegan looked at the entrance of the office and saw the woman who had just called him. Suddenly, he was baffled at how reluctant he was.He left the house at seven o'clock and had been circling this road countless times. He watched Stella getting off the car, becoming impatient, and eventually calling him.'She gave up on me. She doesn't want her name to be next to mine for another second.'He pursed his lips and parked his car. Then, he got out of the car with the documents.Stella'
Stella scanned through the document and signed it.She did that quickly without hesitating at all.However, Keegan held the pen and took his time.Stella's phone rang. She reached for it and saw that Felicity had sent her a post on Facebook.It was a candid photo of Bella in the airport.Bella was wearing a pair of sunglasses and a face mask. She had covered herself up in a very casual outfit. There was no fans waiting for her in the airport, and it looked like she was on a private trip. However, one of her fans recognized her and snapped a photo of her.There was nothing special about the picture since Bella was a rather famous celebrity. It was perfectly normal for a fan to take photos of her.However, there was a person in the photo that made it look not so typical.It was Keegan.He was very tall, and his features looked exceptionally attractive. It was very easy to recognize that it was him by the way he carried himself.There were few other passengers between him and Be
A man stepped out of the car and opened the door for Stella.She bent down and got inside. After that, the car started and drove away.Keegan stood there and stared after them.He looked downward at the divorce certificate he was holding and was overwhelmed with regret.'Why can't she just give in for once?'I wouldn't have signed the papers if she did.'Xavier drove and peered at Stella.'She divorced Keegan Kane right after her mother passed away, and now she's going to sign a new contract with Elegant Media.'Yet, she's acting so normally. I'm surprised by how strong her heart is.'"Is there something on my face?"Stella spoke flatly. She was looking outside the window, but she could see Xavier looking at her.Xavier coughed. "Ms. Stella, you don't have to be in such a rush. After all, you just finished taking care of what happened in your family. You should take a few days off.""That won't be necessary," Stella said emotionlessly. "I just had a divorce, and I need mone
Stella took the contract and started reading.The offer that Elegant Media gave her was very good.The company will allocate endorsements, reality shows, dramas, etc. to their artists according to their talent, so they won't have to worry about not getting any jobs. The company will also pay the artists even if they could not secure any jobs at the beginning of their careers.Not only would the artists get paid, but the company will contribute to their social security accounts too.After securing a job, the artist will divide his/her earnings evenly with the company. However, a new contract would be proposed after the artist started to get famous, to offer the artist more money.Even though Stella had never signed a contract with any company, she heard many stories about agencies from her friends who graduated from the same course as her and worked in this industry.It was very common for rookies like them to be tricked by agencies.Some agencies would neglect the artist after s
Stella took a deep breath and said, "I misunderstood.""He's the one making things up. It has nothing to do with you." Trevor paused. "What about the contract? Are there any problems?""Yes, there are. First, I'm not going on reality shows. Second, I hired an assistant to help run errands on the set before. She's familiar with the industry. So, if possible, I would like to hire her again.""That won't be a problem. You can ask your assistant to send her resume, and I'll arrange everything. As for reality shows, you can rest assured that I don't intend on letting you go on them."Actors must have a sense of mystery. Although putting them on reality shows was a shortcut for quick money, it will affect their skills. No one would want to memorize lines and shoot till late hours if they can earn money by doing nothing.With Stella's acting skills and appearance, she was destined to play bigger roles. The sky's the limit for her."Then I have no further questions."Trevor sighed a bre
