The receptionist's hands were quivering with fear, and he quickly drew them back."M-Mr. Kane."Stella turned her head.'I don't know when did Keegan stand over there. But, his eyes are cold as if someone owed him money.'At the thought of that, Stella suddenly paused.'Whenever Keegan sees me, he probably thinks of the one billion he'll be paying. That's why he always gives me his attitude.'Stella smiled immediately, "Mr. Kane, sorry to keep you waiting."Keegan snorted, "You're too late!"Stella smiled apologetically. "I could have come half an hour earlier, but when I picked up the clothes, I saw a new product that was pretty good. So, I bought two shirts for you, which delayed me a bit."Keegan paused. Then, he snorted softly, "You have many excuses." However, his tone was much better than before.He glanced at her after he said, "Why are you still here?"Stella cursed the ancestors of the Kane family in her heart again. Then, she took the things from the receptionist a
Stella smiled with her eyes. "That won't be necessary. It'll be nice if you keep your promise to give me one billion dollars and divorce me after getting the Vinci Rivera Group's control."Keegan hummed softly, "Go make me a cup of tea."Stella was busy removing the tag. "Isn't Aldor outside? Ask him to make it for you."Keegan paused for a moment with his fork. "Are you planning to split half of the one billion with Aldor?"Stella froze. Then, she stood up with a fake smile. "Now, I'll go now! Mr. Kane, please wait a moment."Stella cursed quietly after leaving the office. 'You're just paying me some money and treating me like a maid. When I'm rich, I have to throw money at Keegan's face and make him succumb to me!'She bumped into Aldor not far away. Aldor was hurrying with the document in his hands. He greeted Stella politely after running into her.Stella stopped him and asked, "Where is the break room?""The break room?" Aldor was stunned for a moment and tentatively asked
Aldor shook his head. "Mr. Zinn said that Albert spoke with great confidence at the time. It didn't seem like he was bragging. Mr. Zinn knew his relationship with you, so he couldn't refuse directly. He said he would discuss it with the other shareholders."Keegan hesitated for a while. "Find out who Albert has been in contact with lately and what he is doing.""Okay. What about Mr. Zinn?""Ask him to continue his research with peace of mind. I'll assign others to deal with it.""Alright."Aldor was about to leave after reporting. However, Keegan stopped him. "Don't leave yet."Aldor staggered.Keegan flatly said, "Do you know how to take photos?"Aldor said after a delay, "Yes."Keegan handed him the phone and said, "Take a picture of these clothes for me.Make them look good."Although Aldor was puzzled, he did not ask much. He took Keegan's phone, made a light composition for the object to be photographed, and took a picture."Keegan, is this okay?"Keegan looked throug
The woman frowned and said, "I'm already like this, and you want to leave?"Vermont glanced at her. "And, don't call me again from now. Let's call it a day."In the end, the woman's face changed. She wrapped herself in a bath towel, gritted her teeth, and cursed, "Vermont, you bastard! How can you call yourself a human being?"Vermont snorted softly, "It's consensual. Don't make yourself sound innocent."He wrote a check and stuffed it into her bath towel as he said, "But, I'm always tender toward pretty girls. So, this is for your compensation."The woman's face changed a few times, and then she finally put away the check. But, she still scolded Vermont, "Jerk! You bastard! You will be punished eventually!"Vermont did not seem surprised. He shrugged, turned around, and left.——Keegan went to a meeting after the meal. Stella wanted to leave, but Keegan said he would take her for styling later. If she could not be found at that time, she would not get any money after the divor
These comments were considered polite. The others were either cursing her to death or sending genital pictures to her, which was unsightly.Stella's blood pressure rose all of a sudden.'How can there be such a person who takes one's undeserved gain for granted, is full of lies, and acts dumb? Keegan is such a sucker! He's a smart businessman, but why is he blind when he's looking for a woman?' Stella thought.The more she scrolled, the angrier she became. Stella could not help but send a message to Felicity. "Tell me, what strengths does Bella have that's worth Keegan obsessing over for so many years?"Felicity was confused about the script change. When she saw Stella's message, she said without thinking, "A leopard can't change its spots."Stella was speechless.Those offensive words made a little sense, and they made Stella feel a bit better immediately.'Since Bella was the first to stir up trouble, don't blame me for being ruthless. Anyone can be an angelic bitch. You would
He was slightly keen on knowing about Keegan's reaction after she fell off the horse before Keegan. On the other hand, Bella was in a big conundrum. She had risen to popularity within these two years. Just as she debuted, the resources she obtained were great.However, the piece of the pie was only so big. If Stella ate a bigger part, it was natural that she had taken other people's share of the pie. The actresses who were in the same field and career path had a deep resentment toward her. Yet, for some reason, Bella's crew was highly obnoxious. The popular searches they bought off were either used to demean others or to show dominance.During the event of the massive pile-up previously, the incident about her monopolizing the popular searches to sensationalize herself had already displeased everyone. In a few days, she caused another issue that riled the people mockery. Even the fans were unable to control the comments.Bella was so furious that she wanted to curse at someone. Neve
Stella's lips twitched. "Was your family business this huge because you used dirty tactics like this to scam people? Why don't you go and rob people instead?"Keegan answered, "That would be illegal. I am still quite compliant toward the law."Stella glared at him for a long time and could not think of any words to rebut him. In the end, she scrambled away with the excuse of using the washroom. Keegan watched her fleeing silhouette and then glanced at the deep marks on the sofa. He paused, then stretched his hands to loosen his tie.When he exited the company building, Keegan detoured to fetch Aurora. Aurora usually did not like to attend these types of events. She thought that the people were being phony and there was too much small talk. In addition to that, she frequently spoke outrageous things, was arrogant, and easily offended people. Hence, even Dahlia did not ask her to attend. On the other hand, Aurora preferred shopping and drinking afternoon tea with the other heiresses.
After entertaining many celebrities and divas, she had never seen someone as unreasonable as Aurora Kane.Thankfully, the manager came in time and quickly smoothed things over. "The subordinates don't know what they're talking about. There is no need to be angry, Ms. Kane. Why not look at this piece? This piece is also a design that came today. This piece is also the one that won awards at the spring fashion show. Why don't you see if you like it or not?"The manager's speech had just finished when Stella came out of the fitting room wearing the gown. The gown was made of burgundy red silk with a firm drape that fully accentuated the female curves. Stella's skin tone was fair, so the contrast in color was strong and could increase her seductive charm to the extreme.Keegan's gaze froze for a few seconds and naturally moved away. Aurora saw Stella's effect, and she wanted that dress even more after she saw Stella wearing it. She was eager to shed Marshall's image of her as a little g
