Stella took out her phone and sent Felicity a WhatsApp message.[What do you want to eat? I'll pack some food and bring them home for you.]Felicity only replied a few minutes after Stella had sent the message.[I've also gone out for a gathering. Eat and play to your heart's content and go home. You don't have to worry about me.]Stella sent another text. [With Vermont?]Felicity sent her a speechless emoji. Then, she replied, [With Doctor Steven!]Stella laughed.[You're finally seeing the light at the end of the tunnel?]Felicity responded, [It's important to have good cooking skills.]Stella thought for a while and sent Keegan a text message. [Have you eaten?]Keegan was about to put a spoonful of soup into his mouth. When he saw her text message, he set the spoon back in its place.Just as he was about to reply, "I'm eating", he gave it some thought and consulted Vermont via WhatsApp message.[Stella asked if I had eaten. What does that mean?]Vermont sat in a private
The woman was startled before she left with a smile.'After all, this is the type of place to search for thrills and a night of pleasure. I don't need to get in trouble of finding taken men,' she thought.Felicity punched Vermont's chest; her face turned red from anger. He initially only wanted to use her to avoid the woman's advances. But after kissing her, he thought it felt nice.'I want to tease her even more and test her limits to see her reaction, especially after seeing her widen her eyes in anger,' he thought.He picked apart her lips and stuck his tongue into her mouth.Felicity froze, and her eyes widened further.Vermont was really satisfied with her reaction. Just as he was about to demonstrate his skills, Felicity suddenly bit down. Even though Vermont was quick to dodge, his tongue still got bitten. He frowned and faintly tasted blood in his mouth. He reached out and cupped the sides of her chin."Are you a dog?"Felicity's eyes had turned red from anger; she look
Felicity's face was ghostly pale, and her eyes were red. She nodded. Corbin got an attendant from the store to help carry Vermont into the cab. He sat in the passenger seat. Meanwhile, Felicity was in the backseat while holding onto Vermont.Felicity's had an extremely tense expression throughout the entire ride. It was obvious she was frightened. Corbin consoled her, "Don't be too worried. He should be fine."Felicity nodded. However, she did not relax at all.'I threw a perfectly fine person unconscious, so how can I be calm? Why didn't I keep my stupid hands to myself?! Other girls attended piano and dance classes when they were younger, but I went to Taekwondo. During my schooling days, I often threw down boys. Once, I made someone get a nosebleed after throwing them down, and the person's parents came to school. After that, my mother forbade me from learning such things. It's been years since I did this to someone; why couldn't I control myself this time?! If something happens
Meanwhile, Keegan had a plan after he saw Vermont's reply. He stared at the "Have you eaten" text and thought for a while. Then he transferred 143 dollars to Stella.[Nope. I've got an important project today, so I've been having meetings.]He thought for a while and sent another text.[I haven't eaten the entire day.]Stella was amused when she read his two text messages.'He's even sadfishing now,' she thought.She pretended not to understand his words and sent a reply.[Being your employee is so miserable. They work under a boss like you, so they don't get to eat this late at night and are working overtime.]Keegan replied.[They've gotten off work. It's a video meeting.]Stella was speechless.[You're at the office?]Keegan replied.[Mhm.]Stella looked at the time; it was almost ten o'clock.'Does this bastard live in the office?' she wondered.Keegan sent her another message soon after.[Is the feast delicious?]Stella replied.[It's not bad. Do you want some?]
Aurora was stunned."Here?"Jaylene nodded, "I ran into him in the corridor. He must be having a gathering with his friends in a different room."Aurora frowned, "But he clearly said he has work tonight when I asked him during the day.""Maybe he's here to discuss work with someone," said Jaylene.Aurora frowned. Suddenly, she stood up and went out in a hurry.Jaylene lowered her gaze and gently fiddled with the tea leaves using the lid of her cup."Keegan, do you like to drink tea?" she asked softly.Keegan still had not gotten a reply from Stella, so he was a little uninterested. He glanced at Jaylene and said indifferently, "So-so."Jaylene thought she had found a common topic between them, so she enthusiastically talked to Keegan about the taste and craftsmanship of various teas.Keegan listened quietly. While he did not show many emotions on his face, he also did not interrupt her. This caused Jaylene to grow more confident. She continued for a long time, but Keegan stil
'However, she didn't. Dahlia and I will never be as close as she and Aurora. She only cares about my emotions because she's worried about grandma reprimanding her or for the benefit of her own family;'it was never simply out of a mother's concern for her child. And it's not that I had never told Dahlia what I like; it's just she had never taken it to heart,' Keegan thought.He stared momentarily at the chili crab on his plate. Moments later, he grabbed the plate and dumped it into the trash bin beside him.Dahlia did not see his actions, but Darcie did. She glanced at Keegan and had a thoughtful expression.Stella immediately put on a drunk act the moment Marshall opened the door. She wobbled about as if she could not stand steadily.She even tripped when going through the door. She would have fallen to her feet if Marshall had not caught her in time.Stuart was startled by her "stumble." He hurriedly asked, "What's the matter with her?"Marshall half-dragged her and said in a
Aurora had already let her anger get the better of her, so she was not bothered to watch her words. She said through gritted teeth, "Am I wrong? She hit on you right after she dumped my brother. Forget about my brother letting his infatuation for her get the better of him. But Marshall, how could you also get bewitched by this woman?"Aurora naturally had a powerful voice. Now that she was speaking loudly with a high pitch, she instantly caught the attention of everyone present.Marshall darkened his expression."Did you not cause enough trouble on the set previously? Now you're here spouting nonsense and ruining other people's reputations. Is this how Madam Crosby raised you?" he said.Aurora's face fell, "Everything I said is the truth! Right now, the Jewell family doesn't see her as their own, so she's nothing in the social circle. She's deliberately seducing you because she wants to reenter the circle. Don't let her fool you, Marshall!"Stella watched how exasperated Aurora lo
'She actually dared to splash boiling water onto someone. If Leighton hadn't shielded me, most of the boiling water would've gotten onto my body and face,' Stella thought.Leighton's neck was severely scalded. Even after rinsing the scald with cold water on time, a circle of blister still appeared. He also had a red patch on his back which looked gruesome.'He's an idol who makes a living using his face. I really regret my actions now that he's gotten scalded on his body. Why did I provoke—that mad dog—Aurora? I should've just beaten up that motherfucker!' she thought.The ruckus outside quickly reached the private lounge Keegan was in.Dahlia frowned, "What're they doing outside? Why is it so noisy?"Aurora took a sip of her tea with a pale face. She was so nervous her hands were trembling.Keegan glanced at her. Suddenly, he stood up and said, "I'll go outside and take a look."Aurora stiffened and tightly gripped her cup. Jaylene followed suit and stood up."Keegan, I'll go
