Stella told her that she was recently shooting a show. Cordelia was very happy when she heard that/ "That means I can see you often on the television in the future?"Stella smiled. "It's not a very important role. But you'll still be able to see me.""You just started filming. You'll have more opportunities in the future. Get the best actress award and show them that you're capable."Stella chuckled. "I'll do my best."While they were talking, Keegan's phone rang. He then grabbed his phone and walked outside to answer the call.Cordelia took this opportunity to say to Stella, "Stella, the Kane family wronged you. I only knew about the divorce between you and Keegan after some time. I don't know how to face you."Stella's expression changed. "Cordelia, don't say that. Keegan and I divorced purely because we had some issues among ourselves. It has nothing to do with you. You treat me well. I'll always remember that. No matter what the relationship is between Keegan and me, you'll a
Cordelia chuckled. "Stella, once I gifted this thumb ring to you, I never planned to take it back. It isn't expensive too. You can just wear it for fun. And for this card, this is a matter between you and Keegan."It's his money. He can use the money in any way he likes. You can talk to him personally about it if you don't want to take the money. It's not up to me."Stella did not say anything.She would not ask Cordelia to help her if Keegan was willing to take the money back.Now she could not return the money to him if Keegan did not want to take it.'Keegan is such a piece of shit. He causes me so much trouble even after we divorced.'After Keegan came back from taking the call, Stella looked unhappy whenever she looked at him.While they were eating, Baldwin suddenly knocked on the door and walked in. "Madam Kane, Mr. Moore is here to visit you."Keegan stopped moving.Stella immediately raised her head to look outside.Marshall was holding a gift box. He was politely st
Although she hoped that can happen, Cordelia was not blind. Marshall was clearly not interested in Aurora. Moreover, Aurora had a bad temper. Marshall deserved a better wife. That was why even though Dahlia repeatedly explicitly or implicitly talked about that matter, Cordelia never promised her anything. She merely said it was up to the kids.They rarely got to eat together. Just like any other elder would, Cordelia inevitably asked Marshall about his relationship status."Marshall, you've been back for a long time. Did your parents set you up on a blind date?""They did. But I didn't have the time to go." Marshall gently said, "I have a lot of work to do at the law firm. It's more important to get those work done.""You have to work. But you shouldn't overlook your love life. I know quite a lot of decent girls. If you don't like the girl your mother set you up with, just tell me your requirements. Education background, looks, personality, job, and so on. Anyway, just tell me. I c
Marshall's gaze met his and was unwavering. There seemed to be no ripples underlying his gaze, yet a turbulent tidal wave hid inside.Keegan took a sip of his tea and then put the cup on the table. "Your worries seem to be unfounded. I have many cars at home. There's no difference if I gift one to her."Marshall also chuckled. "I was afraid Stella wouldn't be willing to get in a car since she doesn't like to take advantage of others."Keegan seemed to not have understood who the "others" Marshall meant in his sentence. Instead, Keegan said nonchalantly, "It's good that you know. You've had your meal, spoken your conversation, and drank this tea. You should go home soon."Marshall was speechless. As he was about to answer, Keegan said, "Oh, I suddenly remembered that your mother said you would have trouble sleeping after drinking tea."When saying this, he took over the cup of tea in Marshall's hand and sipped. "It's better you don't drink the tea. Leave quickly."Marshall was onc
Stella was slightly bewildered. She checked the horse from top to bottom. Her line of sight suddenly fell on Juno's hooves. Then, she exclaimed in shock. "You changed shoes?"Juno instantly raised its head and trotted a few steps ahead of her in a confident manner. Sporting new horseshoes that emitted clicking sounds with each step, it purposefully stomped the ground, much like a child flaunting new shoes. Juno paraded back and forth in front of its companions, showing off.Stella couldn't help but cry with laughter at the sight. She strongly suspected Cordelia had purchased those shoes for Juno, as the horse seemed incredibly anthropomorphic in its behavior.Marshall chuckled. "I was thinking why it was walking back and forth. Turns out it was showing off its shoes."Stella smiled while touching Juno's mane. "It even flaunted its hairclip to me before this. Apart from Juno being unable to talk, it's like a small child.""It's that smart?" Marshall said while imitating Stella's mo
Stella thanked him while taking the bottle over. Then, she twisted it open and drank almost half the water bottle."Your riding skills are quite good," Marshall complimented her."It's just average," Stella was very humble. Her skills, in the eyes of others, might have been presentable. However, in the eyes of professionals, it would be inadequate.Keegan glanced at her, "Marshall had learned horsemanship systematically. If he says you're good, then you are good."Stella was a little surprised. The last time Trevor came to challenge Keegan, Marshall did not join. Hence, Stella assumed that Marshall did not know how to ride horses."You even learned horse riding professionally on purpose?" Stella asked.Marshall chuckled, "I learned it together with Keegan. I wouldn't consider it especially professional. It's just that I know a little bit about riding horses."All locals speak very humbly of themselves. When Marshall said he knew a little bit, he definitely did not just know a li
The speed of the two horses was unexpectedly equally matched. Keegan pressed his body down and stared forward with a sullen gaze in his eyes while swinging his horsewhip at the appropriate time to alter the direction.When turning a corner, Juno outpaced the brown horse with a leap. This move of overtaking Marshall made him slowly accumulate disadvantages. Although their speed was still fast, the two- or three-meters distance could not be shortened regardless of any method used.Keegan turned around to look at Marshall and smirked. He turned his head back around and sped up again. Marshall focused his gaze and flung a single harsh whip onto the horse's body. The brown horse shrieked and accelerated its sprint speed. The brown horse was unknowingly frightened at the final bend and pressing onto the finish line. With another loud shriek, it shook Marshall off its back.Stella was shocked and screamed out, "Mr. Moore!"Marshall's whole body was flung to one side of the saddle with one
Stella saw this scene, and her heart sank. Keegan's reaction was very swift. The moment he slipped from the reins, he immediately let go. However, he was still dragged for a few meters before rolling onto the grass field.Stella held onto her breath until Keegan sat up on the grass field. Then, her gripped fingers unfurled. Marshall furrowed his brows while watching the scene. He then said in a low voice, "Is Keegan fine?""If he can get up, what problem could he have?" Stella replied.Marshall's movements froze, and he glanced at Stella silently. After Keegan fell off the horse, The brown horse started to decelerate slowly. The horse trainer quickly chased up to it and took control of the runaway horse.Keegan's arm was excruciatingly painful. He stood up with an ashen face. He saw Stella, who stood not far away. He could see that she was fine and sighed a breath of relief deep down. He then walked toward them.When he got close, he asked Marshall, "How are you?"Marshall opened
