Even though Keegan was only seventeen, he was already as tall as an adult.He was about six feet and he needed two caretakers to flip him over.The other caretaker went to have lunch that day, so Dahlia went to help.However, the catheter came off when they were flipping him over, and his urine spilled on the bed. Then, Dahlia immediately let go of him. His wound would have bumped against the bed if the caretaker did not hold his waist.Keegan would never forget the expression on Dahlia's face.Her disgusted and disdainful look made Keegan feel as though he was not her son at all while lying on the bed.Dahlia had always been cold to him, but that was the time when he really felt how much Dahlia did not care about him.He lost hope in everybody else after how his biological mother had treated him.Keegan started to hate the hospital after the operation. He despised the feeling of laying on the bed helplessly while needing others' help to do everything because that was when he s
Aldor immediately took out his phone.Stella really did post something.She posted a screenshot of her bank account balance online with the caption, [I would get a divorce ten times a year if I knew it could make me this rich.]Keegan was speechless.The comments got even better.Vermont commented, [Please be my sugar mommy.]Felicity responded, [Stay away if you're not pure. Stella has a thing for virgins.]Vermont replied with a middle finger emoticon.Stella commented, [It doesn't matter if you're a virgin or not as long as you can do it better than my ex.]...Aldor got very scared.He then looked at Keegan's expression cautiously.As expected, Keegan's face looked furious.'Mrs. Kane is a person with boundaries. I highly suspect that she typed this just to make Mr. Kane mad.'Aldor was right. Stella replied with a different sentence. [Please behave yourselves.]However, she suddenly figured that Keegan the scum would always spy on her social media, so she edited the
Twenty minutes later, Aldor came in to report. "The letter was delivered by a courier. I'm not sure who sent it. Tomorrow, there's a lawsuit at the Court of Rivera where Dusk Galaxy is suing several internet trolls for cyberbullying her."Keegan looked puzzled. Obviously, he could not recall who Dusk Galaxy was, but the name sounded familiar.Aldor thought, 'Mr. Kane always has a very short memory for things and people that are irrelevant to him.' So, Aldor explained, "It's the original voice actress for Vixen in 'Honor of the Deities'. You had Ms. Young replace her for that role?"Keegan finally had some recollection. "What is Dusk Galaxy suing for?""Libel and defamation," Aldor paused before he continued, "The voice actress went through depression because of cyberbullying from Ms. Young's fans. After being wrongly accused of being difficult to work with, she made the tough decision to leave the industry."Aldor went on and said, "Just a few days ago, she had her lawyer send a l
"Tell her she made the wrong move by thinking that she can make the news with that incident. I'm going to make her regret ever sending me those things," Keegan said with a deep voice, as he was on guard. He hung up after that.Stella looked puzzled. 'What the fuck is he on about??? Who's trying to make the headlines, and who sent him stuff?'Marshall was also confused. "I thought he knew that it was you," he said. "He wouldn't recognize me even if you put my voice-acting work in front of him," Stella smiled and said."That's because your work is immaculate. Even I can't recognize that it's you just by listening to it," Marshall said with a smile.Stella smiled back and said, "I hope everything goes well tomorrow."Many people gathered at the gates of the Court of Rivera at 9:00 a.m.Since several of the people Dusk Galaxy sued were big fans of Bella, other fans decided to show up to support them. They treated the matter as their duty; to back up the heroes who fought for their
"I mean, how would she go viral without Bella? Didn't she say she was taking a break from social media? Why is she still doing all this then? Clearly, she's trying to make a comeback through the lawsuit.""Wouldn't it be a slap in the face if she comes back online?""She wouldn't have dragged Bella if she cared about that. Didn't her fans keep bragging about how another actor is her face double? Imagine the horror when they find out how ugly their idol is!""Yeah. Why would she stick with being a voice actor if she's good-looking and great at her lines? I can't wait to see what she looks like, and the shock on her fans' faces.""Turn down the exposure a little and don't put a filter on," said one of the girls behind Keegan."Okay," the other replied.Keegan was expressionless. Although he could not quite hear what the two were discussing, he figured that they did not like the voice actor, Dusk Galaxy. He turned around and asked Aldor, "Do all celebrity fans act like this nowadays
[You really want to buy the shares?] Trevor asked.[Yes.] Keegan replied.[Swing by my company in the afternoon, and we'll talk.]Just as Keegan was about to text him back, the court started to fill with noise. Keegan looked up and saw the judge, the plaintiff, and the defendant enter the courtroom one after the other.Beside Marshall sat a woman with a baseball cap and a mask covering her face. However, her figure seemed inexplicably familiar. Keegan frowned, wanting to find out who she was, but the woman suddenly stopped and shot him a look. When their eyes met, Keegan's heart trembled. 'Stella?!'Before he could process why Stella was involved in the trial, he noticed she glanced at him fiercely and followed Marshall to the plaintiff's table.Keegan subconsciously stood up, but the bailiff stopped him, saying he had to remain seated because the trial was about to start. Hence, he had no choice but to suppress the restlessness in his heart and sit down with a sullen expression.
Stella had no bad angles. Her looks were outrageously perfect, whether viewed from the front or the side. Though her facial features may not be the best-looking when separated, they looked amazing when combined.Looks were based on more than just refined and prominent facial features. Cosmetic surgery was getting more advanced nowadays, yet people would still know if someone had any work done on their face. That was because the excessive pursuit of perfection for each facial feature often causes the neglect of facial alignment, the most challenging aspect to control during plastic surgery.Stella was striking at first glance because her facial alignment was perfect. She did not possess what society deemed women needed to be beautiful— small shoulders, voluminous hair, or an hourglass figure. Stella's shoulders were broad, and her hair was flat due to the hat she wore, but neither affected her beauty.The haters who wanted to capture ugly photos of Dusk Galaxy and bash her on the int
'On the night Marshall brought Stella as a date to the charity event, he didn't know she was Keegan's wife. He even called her Ms. Thompson. At that time, Marshall smoothed things over for her and told us that he was involved in her family lawsuit. He even mistakenly thought that her surname was Thompson.''Could this be the lawsuit that he was talking about back then? There are so many famous lawyers in Rivera. What a coincidence it is that Stella met Marshall, who had just returned to the country?' Keegan stared at the plaintiff, and his eyes darkened. He did not believe that there were so many coincidences in this world.The judge's assistant read out the court rules, but Stella could not focus. When she entered the venue and saw Keegan there, her heart sank.Keegan had made an inexplicable warning in a call last night. He must have known about the lawsuit, but he did not know she was the plaintiff. So, it was clear that he was not there for her.A few days ago, Marshall asked s
