"Then, let's go." Stella took Keegan's coat and opened the door.Keegan realized this was a rare sight and said softly, "I'll hold it myself."Stella then passed the coat to him. Just as Keegan stepped out the door, a loud bang sounded. Stella had swung the door shut and shut Keegan out of the house. Keegan was at a loss for words.'Walk... Walk, my ass! Keegan's cell phone never leaves his side so he definitely put it in the living room on purpose! He was trying to be smart with me. Did he think that I was stupid?' Stella thought.On June 20th, Stella would complete shooting for her scene in The Palace. Daniel led the whole production crew to help hold a small banquet for Stella to wrap up her shoot. Her first project finished filming just like that.On the day she left the production crew, she was actually quite reluctant. Daniel conducted himself properly, and the cohesiveness between the production crew was strong. The crew had few messy issues, and the actors were very profes
Vermont said with a straight face, "Of course, Corbin told me. You never let me see it, so how would I know what you made otherwise?"From what Felicity heard, she knew it was Corbin who said it. She humbly asked him immediately, "What else did Dr. Steven say?"Vermont continued with a straight face. "The other stuff was fine. He doesn't like to eat sweet stuff, and he isn't that good with food that's too spicy."Felicity heard this, and her face immediately fell. "Why didn't you say this earlier? I made jerk chicken today, so it might be slightly spicy."'Jerk chicken?' Vermont thought. His eyes brightened slightly, and he cleared his throat. "If it's slightly spicy, it should be fine. A little spice can stimulate your appetite."Felicity sighed in relief and asked another question. "You've delivered food for a few days. Did Dr. Steven comment on anything? Is it delicious or disgusting? You can tell me, and I'll improve them next time."Vermont saw her earnest expression and fel
"Teriyaki is fine, but pork has gotten expensive recently. How about you sponsor the money to buy the meat?" Felicity asked.Vermont was at a loss for words. His eye twitched. "Corbin eats everything every day. Why don't you ask him for money?""How can you be compared to Dr. Steven?" Felicity huffed angrily. "Dr. Steven's my future husband. I'm willing to spend money on him. What are you? You're the pervert who took my first-time! It's good enough that I gave you a chance to repent, yet you want to compare yourself to Dr. Steven. Don't you have the answer yourself?"Vermont was speechless again."The price of black pigs at the supermarket is forty-something bucks for half a kilogram. With your huge appetite, you would need at least one and a half kilograms of meat. With the oil, seasonings, plus gas, and other messy stuff, I'll count it as a total of two hundred bucks. Give me the money," Felicity rambled.Vermont's lips twitched momentarily. 'One and a half kilograms? She thinks
Hylda walked past the crosswalk and then put her sunglasses back on. She then surveyed around. After finding nothing out of the ordinary, she entered the hospital.Felicity was standing beside Hylda. She wore black framed glasses and had her initially tied-up hair let down. She looked like a high school student, so naturally, she did not attract Hylda's suspicion. Hylda originally had never formally met Felicity before.However, Felicity and Stella had always stood together. She remembered Hylda's face very early on. Hylda entered the hospital and took a number for the obstetrics and gynecology department. Felicity also followed her and took a number.When following Hylda up the elevator, Felicity's mind was filled with questions.'Could this old hag maybe have gotten pregnant? With Albert's looking weak in the kidneys, could he have cheated again at such an old age?' Felicity thought.Even Keegan could not make Stella pregnant at such a young age. Hence, she did not believe that
The lady was not convinced. "Why don't you call and ask? There's a promotion going on these few days. I'm telling you because you look friendly. It wouldn't be the same price if you dragged a few more days."Felicity glanced in Hylda's direction and noticed that she was watching her. So she hastily averted her gaze. At this moment, the phone rang. Felicity picked up the call when she saw Vermont was calling. She felt she was being see through by Hylda, so she needed Vermont to rescue her.Once the phone call was connected, Felicity spoke before Vermont could speak, "Honey, the obstetrics and gynecology department is on the seventh floor. Come straight up. I'm in the line right now, and a lady here was asking if we would like to buy insurance. I think she explained it quite thoroughly. Why don't you come and take a look?"Vermont frowned. "What are you doing, Miss bandit?"Felicity did not answer his question and continued, "Hurry up! See you later."Vermont got confused, but he re
Felicity immediately pushed Vermont off when Hylda entered the doctor's office. "Why are you so hot like a stove?"Vermont shot her a look, "Well, isn't that nonsense? The weather's so hot. Are you not hot?" He thought to himself, 'She is really not that hot. She felt so squishy and soft like jelly when I held her.'Felicity took the brochure from the chair and waved it. "This mistress must be forty-something. Albert is over fifty. Could she really be pregnant?""There was news a few days ago about a sixty-year-old woman giving birth. Forty-something doesn't seem like a big deal," Vermont said and took the brochure from Felicity and fanned himself. He sat on the right side of Felicity. With the strength of a male's wrist, the wind he created even blew onto Felicity's face, providing some relief from the heat."Hold up. Something's not right. With Albert's attitude of giving priority to his offspring at such an old age, he would have been elated with the news. So why would she hide
Felicity asked, "So? Is she pregnant?"Vermont was still in shock after he saw the pregnancy checklist and has not snapped out of it. 'It was just that one time. Did she already get pregnant?'Felicity's words slowly brought him back to his senses. He said softly, "Yes, she's pregnant.""Sheesh, I knew it! I saw her taking a brochure about painless abortion just now. Who would look at those things when they are pregnant? The baby in Hylda's belly is definitely not Albert's child!"Vermont paid no attention to whose baby Hylda was carrying. He was more concerned about the baby in Felicity's belly, wondering if it was his. He thought about it for a while. When they got in the car, he hesitantly said, "What do you plan to do with the baby?"Let me be clear. I have no plans of getting married and am not eager to have a child. But if you want to have the baby, I won't force you to have an abortion. You will have to take care of the baby on your own. I will provide child support if the
After driving for a while, Vermont asked, "Rainee just passed away. Your bestie is not even Albert's daughter now. What's the use of finding out these things?"'Stella did not seem like the type of person interested in the Jewell family's assets. After all, she rejected Keegan's money.' Vermont wondered, 'Why would she even be interested in the puny inheritance left by the Jewell family? She wasn't even Albert's daughter by blood. She could take the chance to cut ties with them. Why bother getting entangled with them?'Felicity said, "Is there no need for revenge after a person dies? Those two adulterers teamed up and caused Rainee's car accident. She turned into a vegetable and lay in bed for seven years. Now that Rainee is gone, how could they be allowed to live happily ever after? Is this fair?"Vermont was startled. "Are you saying that Albert caused Rainee's accident?""Duh? Albert was about to leave the marriage with nothing at all, but then an accident happened to Rainee. Sh
