"God, bless my underwear,My only pair.Stand beside them,As they sit in a heap by the chair.From the washer,To the clothesline,To my dresser drawer,To my rear..."Stella and Keegan were stunned.Stella was not impressed. "Is this supposed to be a lullaby?"Keegan argued, "It's my first time listening to it too."Vermont sent it to him and told him that it was the best lullaby ever, but he had never played it.'I should've known that I can't trust this idiot!'What kind of rubbish is this?!' he thought.Stella then figured that it might really help Vermont to sleep judging by what he liked. However, she was very sure that he did not send it to Keegan for the same reason.Stella tried to hold her laughter in before she said softly, "I feel more awake now thanks to you. Bye."Then, she hung up before Keegan could say anything.Keegan held his phone in his hand, looking very annoyed. He thought, 'Vermont is such a moron. Everything was going so well until I played hi
Vermont held in his laughter. "Me too."So, Felicity went into Vermont's house reluctantly.Felicity knew that the roasted fish was from Southern Unity Street just by the smell of it.That was because her office was very close to that street, and she would be attracted by that smell whenever she walked past it.She suggested her company's team-building session be organized there, but most of her colleagues rejected the idea because the smoky smell would stick to their clothes. And, that shop had a big hall without any individual rooms, so the lack of privacy became a reason to not go there.After all, team-building activities were supposed to be fun. Felicity was one of the few people who only wanted to eat.That was why Felicity only ate there a few times even though the shop was very near to her office.So, she enjoyed that meal very much.She even took the initiative to clean up after the meal. "I'm leaving now.""Wait a minute." Vermont stopped her. "Test a game out with m
Stella replied honestly, "I uninstalled it last night.""Re-install it and respond to it. This is a perfect chance to clarify things.""Okay," Stella said before reinstalling Facebook.She opened the application and saw that the most searched hashtag was #VRAmbassador.She tapped on it, and the Cyber Crime Bureau posted a clip of her. It was taken from Jurisdiction when she acted as a university student who ended her life because of the pressure of online loan with the caption, [It's nice to be working with you again. How have you been? @StellaJewell]The main account of Vinci Rivera shared the post with the caption, [That's right. She "sold herself" to us.] The account even flaunted a picture of the Mercedes-Benz that the netizens would not stop spreading.In other words, Vinci Rivera was responding to the rumors about Stella selling her body to some rich man for her own benefit.Vinci Rivera was telling everyone that Stella was not spending time with some rich men when she did
A celibate engineer who was obsessed with inventing new stuff and a voice actress who was the go-to option when any show needed a sexy and seductive voice.The extreme contrasts between them could actually go so well together.Keegan never wanted to be interviewed and would rarely appear in front of the media. There were only a few photos of him online, and all of them were related to work, such as when he gave a speech at Trinity University.Everybody spent a lot of effort to find his photo. Then, they cropped him out and placed him beside a picture of Stella when she acted as the corpse-cooking maniac in Jurisdiction, where she was wearing a camisole and had short hair.They were shocked by how well they looked together. Keegan wore a suit that made him look ascetic, and it seemed like only Stella could take them off to do whatever she wanted on him.The sexual tension surrounding her was simply too strong.So, they gave them a nickname as a couple—Keella.It was a combination
Shannon leered at Bella and said, "You're both from the same company, and she's not as good as you. You're the main character, while she's just a sidepiece. There's no conflict of interest between you two. Why would she try to screw you over?"Bella's face turned red. She could not tell her about how she had tried to break Keegan and Stella's marriage before."The company accepted an endorsement for an affordable luxury brand as compensation for you. And, the police have closed the case and ruled it an accident. I'm telling you, Bella, Mr. Saun doesn't like actors who cause trouble. Just do your job, and you will be fine. You'd get everything you were promised in your contract. No one can protect you if Mr. Saun finds out that you did the opposite."Bella was the most popular artist in the company and should have received princess treatment. However, Trevor did not like her at all, which can be seen through Bella's shock at that time.Shannon thought that the company had appointed
Dahlia felt frustrated that Keegan seemed unconcerned about the Crosby family matters but was overly attentive to Stella. 'Thank goodness they're divorced. Otherwise, Keegan would be even more fixated on her. There wouldn't be room for me in this household.'Early in the morning, Dahlia visited Cordelia's house. Cordelia had been quite unhappy with her since the birthday banquet incident, so Dahlia had kept a low profile since then. Besides offering her condolences to the injured guests from the banquet, Dahlia went to Cordelia's place to acknowledge her errors and offer her apologies.Cordelia remained adamant about not wanting to see Dahlia. Each time Dahlia visited, Cordelia either turned her away or gave her the silent treatment.Dahlia had managed to enter the Kane family due to her pregnancy and determination. Initially, when pregnant, Cordelia disapproved of her, yet Dahlia persisted. She visited Cordelia daily, bringing tea, inquiring about Cordelia's well-being, tending to
Cordelia did not answer Dahlia's question. Instead, she asked, "How many years has it been since Quentin's death?""Sixteen years," Dahlia said."Sixteen years, seven months, and nine days to be exact," the old lady said indifferently. "He was gone on the first day of the new year."Dahlia seemed a little sad. "Yeah. It's been so many years," she whispered."You haven't gotten remarried for sixteen years, yet you want Keegan to find a new partner after two months of getting a divorce. Have you ever thought of what it's like for him?"Dahlia's face changed. "It's not the same, Cordelia. Quentin and I have been in love for so many years. He and Stella agreed to get divorced."Cordelia leered at her and said, "If you really love Quentin, where were you when the lab he was in caught on fire?"Dahlia's heart tightened, and she wanted to cry instantly. "Are you still blaming me for what happened?"The old lady put down the scissors and calmly said, "Quentin asked me to treat you well
Dahlia didn't like how Keegan treated the Crosby family, so she stopped visiting him after that one bad thing had happened.Most moms in the city would lend a hand to their grown-up kids with household things after a divorce, but not Dahlia. She didn't bother. She didn't care much about how Keegan was coping. It had only been a month since Keegan's divorce, and she kept sending him details about girls from wealthy families, wishing he would find new wife. She seemed to care more about his new relationship than his divorce.After ignoring her calls twice, Keegan either put his phone on silent or had Aldor answer. He didn't use any of the stuff she sent. Instead, he gave it all to Wenham to help Trevor find someone.Trevor was getting tired of the blind dates. He even posted a tweet stating, [You deserve to be single @KeeganKane]Keegan's act of sending his troubles to his rival was brutal."It's urgent! Put him on the phone!" Dahlia frowned.Aldor smiled apologetically and said, "
