Keegan immediately defended himself. [Although he and I are childhood friends, I'm a man of principles. I would never be complicit in such matters. However...]Keegan paused, then typed: [If I help you keep an eye on him, do I get bonus points?]Stella squinted her eyes and replied: [Are you negotiating with me?][How would I have the right to set conditions?] It was as if Keegan had taken a crash course in communication. His progress was phenomenal. He then typed: [Naturally, whatever you say goes. I merely asked offhandedly.]Stella held back her laughter. [Well, if you tell me as soon as something happens, I can add points for you adequately, which may vary between 50 to 200.]Keegan smiled, and he answered: [I won't let you down.]At unit 902 next door, Vermont gave a few sneezes. He rubbed his nose and thought, 'Is that bandit cursing me again?'After finishing his conversation with Stella, Keegan forwarded the trashy link from Stella to Zane."Hack the website for me!" Ke
Aurora felt a chill go down her spine. She raised her hand and was about to slap the lady, but before her arm could be raised, she was held down by two other people.The camisole top lady raised her hand and gave Aurora two more slaps. Aurora's hair was instantly ruined.She screamed loudly, and this quickly attracted the officers on duty. However, they did not open the door. Instead, they stood at the tiny window and gave a look inside. "What are you doing?"Someone muffled Aurora's mouth firmly, and another person answered, "Nothing. We're just fooling around."The officer banged on the door and ordered, "Be quiet," before leaving.The few detainees worked together to pull the jewelry off Aurora. They could not take the items away when leaving the cell but they felt satisfied to humiliate her was pretty satisfying."I'm teaching you your first lesson today. This is what people call manners!"The camisole top lady tore Aurora's dress and ruffled her hair. "I did sell my body, b
After hanging up the phone, Stuart forwarded Leighton's WhatsApp contact to her. Stella tapped it open and saw that Leighton's profile picture was actually a tiger. She thought, 'This fella knows why people call him that and purposely chose this profile picture, right?'Stella added his WhatsApp contact and sent a message. [It's Stella.]After a while, she did not see him accepting it. Stella thought for a while, and then chuckled. Leighton was a huge celebrity and probably did not remember who she was. She then put her phone to the side while thinking about it.At that exact moment, Leighton, who was initially lying on the bed nursing his injuries, heard the notification sound from his WhatsApp application. He squinted his eyes and grabbed this phone, taking a look. Leighton saw the notification for a newly added contact. He sat up from the bed with a whoosh.Estelle was shocked. "What are you going crazy for?"Leighton kneeled down on the bed, half-naked. Eyes bright, he said, "
Keegan had meant what he said. He had given strict orders that no one was allowed to bail Aurora.Dahlia had begged everyone the whole night. She also used each and every contact available. No one could get Aurora out. Not only that, but the police did not even allow visits.Dahlia did not get any sleep. Before daybreak the next day, she ran to Cordelia's home to beg Cordelia. Cordelia knew about this incident the previous night.Keegan had been wary of Dahlia's plan. When he returned from Chandler's house yesterday night, he had gone to Cordelia's home. He told Cordelia what had happened in exact detail, including all of Aurora's deeds in the past. Cordelia finished listening to this and did not speak for a long while.Knowing what Keegan would do next, Cordelia said, "Let her suffer. She should learn this lesson. I truly regret that I let her take care of Aurora back then."Cordelia was worried Dahlia would come to make a fuss. Hence, she had traveled through the night to the su
Wenham pursed his lips. "He's going back to Salcator to visit his uncle and grandparents."Darcie stopped talking. After a while, she said, "He's been back for a long time. He should go and visit them. How are the elders?""Quite well," Wenham said vaguely. He then gave her an excuse before he went out.Darcie pursed her lips tightly. She used her fingers to press the hot waistband around her as she softly caressed it.Meanwhile, Stella had been reading the script the whole day. She also watched a few episodes of a popular drama. Toward evening, her doorbell rang.Felicity was amending the script with her earphones on. Stella got up and went to open the door.The people outside the door were the workers from The Emperor.They were holding a few bags. They smiled brightly when the door was opened."Hi, your takeaway order from The Emperor is here. We're glad to serve you."Stella was stunned. "I didn't order this."One worker took out the address label to verify. "Clouditude I
Felicity's expression turned sour."You ordered this?"Vermont coughed. "Well, I've eaten a few of your meals. I'm paying you back with this."Felicity gave a mocking laugh. 'If Keegan were not here, I would have hit Vermont!'Holding the alcohol, Vermont walked to her. He whispered, "This is year eighty-two Lafite. Am I sincere enough?"Felicity's expression changed subtly. She glanced at the alcohol that he was holding. Its packaging was indeed exactly the same as the one she saw on the set.Suspiciously, Felicity said, "You're not fooling me with counterfeit wine, right?"Vermont said, "If this is fake, I'll swallow the bottle."Felicity looked better. She took the bottle of alcohol from him. "For the sake of the Lafite."She then walked to the kitchen with it. Vermont smiled as he followed her.Stella and Keegan stared at each other.Keegan said, "Let's have a walk downstairs."Stella looked at the food. "I still haven't eaten."Keegan smiled. He looked a little gentle
Keegan said on his mind, 'We divorced recently.' But he still made a sound to imply yes.The man said, "Your wife's quite pretty. My wife's just slightly prettier."Keegan was speechless."Your wife is...""She's the one on your wife's left. She's wearing a floral skirt."Keegan turned his head to look. He was taken aback. 'She looks... quite likable.'They do look like a married couple. She has a chubby, round face. Her arms are one and a half arms thicker than Stella's.'The man said, "She was very slim before she gave birth. She only got chubbier after that."Actually, she isn't chubby. I think she looks quite good. You guys don't have a child yet, right?"Keegan said, "We aren't planning on having a kid."The man winced. He then smiled as he said, "That's good too. It was like being at death's door. It was very torturous."My wife had too many supplements when she was pregnant. The baby was too big when she gave birth."She ended up staying in the delivery room for a da
'I feel like I got ripped off... I should've said fifty.'Stella felt she got a bad deal. But Keegan felt like his cognitive view got reconstructed.'You can make such a counteroffer?'Stella did not simply give her counteroffer. She always went to the night market near Trinity University. So, she could more or less know the price of these clothes.But she did not expect the stall owner to be so cunning.'It's fine. He has to make a profit. It's a virtuous circle.'When the owner held the bag open for Stella, Keegan handed the set of erotic outfits to him. He asked, "How much is this?"The stall owner glanced at it. "Hundred and fifty."Keegan remembered the way Stella bargained just now. He said, "It's too expensive. Give me a better offer."The owner said, "Make me a counteroffer."Keegan said, "Fifteen."The boss was stunned. He took the clothes from him and threw them at a pile of clothes. "Have a nice day!"Keegan was speechless.Stella laughed hysterically.Keegan w
