Dahlia's expression was still normal despite being anxious deep down due to her incident being exposed. But, her face did not show anything."You say that I drugged you and caused you to be infertile. But, what evidence do you have? Just based on this bottle of drugs?" Dahlia snorted lightly, "You were originally barren. What's wrong with me seeking an alternative medicine to help nurse your body? You can take this medicine to any random inspection agency and see which agency would be able to detect the toxicity of these medicines."Stella gripped her fists tightly. This was the brilliance of Dahlia. Poisoning was too apparent, and she could be prosecuted at any minute by taking the toxicity analysis reports.However, it was different if she used alternative medicine. These types of medicine would not show their effects after one consumption. They need a long time to accumulate. Even if she was holding the bottle of medicine and found out that there was an ingredient that would be b
"Hand over the emerald thumb ring. Do that and I'll forget about the money you got from Keegan."Stella sneered, "Dahlia, did you get confused or something? Didn't Keegan tell you that I didn't get anything from our divorce?"'Although, after we got divorced, that psychotic Keegan constantly transferred money to me,' said Stella in her mind.Dahlia looked very unhappy when she heard Stella address her by her name. She frowned after hearing what Stella said. "You didn't get anything?"Stella was frustrated. 'Didn't Keegan tell anyone about our divorce? Why didn't Aurora and Dahlia know about it?'Dahlia sized Stella up from top to bottom. 'She's indeed wearing clothes from relatively smaller brands. These clothes are only worth around a thousand dollars. The bag she's using is worth less than ten thousand dollars. She doesn't look like she received much money from the divorce settlement.'Keegan didn't give her a single penny?' Dahlia thought and was a little surprised.She then
"Who do you think you are?" She clenched her teeth.Keegan saw the scene right after he went into the shop, and he suddenly looked gloomy. But, he was too late to stop her.The coffee splashed on Stella's chin and neck. The brown color coffee flowed down her face and stained her white top.The weather in the early summer was hot, and the material of Stella's top was thin. When the coffee splashed on her body, it permeated her shirt. Her shirt then very quickly stuck to her body. Her lingerie could be seen clearly.Keegan looked unhappy. He removed his jacket and walked forward to put his jacket over Stella's body. He then turned his head and coldly stared at Dahlia. "What are you doing?"His tone was not friendly. It clearly showed that he was furious.Dahlia, however, was a little confused. 'Why is Keegan here?'She stared at Stella who was calmly wiping the coffee stain on her face with the back of her hand. After that, Dahlia finally realized what had happened.'She did this
"I don't need you to care about me!" Stella turned her head. Her eyes were red as she said, "Where were you when I needed you? Why are you pretending to care about me now? Or, is it because you're angry with me for splashing coffee on your mother? So, you came to get back at me?"Keegan would have talked back if she scolded him like this back then.But today, he lowered his eyes and remained silent. He stretched his arm to gently wipe the coffee stain on her cheek that she did not wipe. His voice was husky. "Was it hot?"Stella's nose felt sour. She almost cried even when she did not want to.She pushed his hand away and said, "It's none of your business. We're divorced. You and your mother don't need to plot against me and be worried that I'd get pregnant anymore. Because of you two, I won't be able to get pregnant my whole life. Are you happy now?"Keegan's fingers trembled. He felt a lump in his throat. He opened his mouth, and he softly said after a while, "I'm sorry.""The w
Keegan was speechless."Are you trying to make me angrier?"Vermont's mouth twitched. He immediately screenshotted his WhatsApp and sent it to Keegan. "See for yourself." He then teased him, "Your ex-wife blacklisted you. That's why you can't see it."Keegan's expression instantly turned ugly when he saw that screenshot.Vermont asked, "She said she prioritizes healthy men. What does that mean? Do you have any sexual dysfunction? You couldn't satisfy her?"Keegan was boiling with anger. "You're the one who has sexual dysfunction!"Vermont was speechless.'I was just asking. Why was he so angry? His ex-wife said it, not me,' Vermont thought.Keegan did not disclose their divorce to the public. He thought that Stella was acting out. He wanted to remarry her after some time. But, he did not expect her to announce their divorce publicly.'Now, it looks like, at least from Stella's point of view, she really might not want to get back with Keegan,' thought Vermont.Vermont suddenly
'It's that strict?'Stella secretly asked in her mind.But, she still obediently removed her jacket.The doctor raised her head and said, "You need to remove everything except for your panties."So, Stella continued to remove her clothes.Trevor sat in the room next door staring at the woman on the screen who was undressing. He pursed his lips tightly and remained silent.He averted his eyes when Stella started removing her bra. He tapped the cup as he softly said, "Ask her to turn around. Have a look at her back."The female doctor raised her eyes as she said, "Please turn around."Stella then turned around.Trevor raised his eyes. He then immediately saw the pink, cloud-shaped birthmark on her left scapula.His hand trembled, and he suddenly looked extremely serious.He clenched his teeth as he murmured, "Ask her what's that on her back."The female doctor got up and walked to Stella. She pretended to examine her body. Then, she touched the birthmark on Stella's scapula w
When Stella was done with the checkup, the agent from when she went to look at houses, called her."Ms. Jewell, I have sorted out some houses according to the requirements that you mentioned last time, all of them are located in the areas that you circled but from various house types and residential areas. I've sent the pictures of the different house types to your WhatsApp, so you can have a look. Of course, if you're free, we could set a time and date for me to bring you to see the houses in person. Then, you can have a first-hand view of the lighting and whatnot. What do you think?"Stella had contacted the agent back when she first asked for a divorce from Keegan.For a few months, the agent had been calling Stella persistently.During that period, Stella stopped replying to the agent's invites because the divorce was on hold. She never expected the agent to still remember her and recommend houses to her from time to time.Stella was a person who would easily give in to consta
Stella glanced at the agent, who took a bus to meet Stella. When the agent came down from the bus, there was a visible footprint on her shoe that indicated someone had stepped on it. However, when the agent brought Stella to view the houses, she deliberately called a cab. When she paid for the cab, she took out her purse which looked like it had been used for a while, as the corners were obviously frayed.'If she could close this deal, the money she spent on the cab won't go to waste. But, what if she couldn't?'Such sincerity.'Stella then said, "There's no need for that. My friend's house is not far away from here, so I can walk there."The agent let out a sigh of relief, said her goodbyes, and went to take the subway train.Stella strolled slowly along the street. After an afternoon of house-hunting, she was actually quite tired. But, as she thought of how everything was going down the right path, she felt a faint sense of security.Felicity's house was actually some distance
