'The person he truly loves... Hmph... this scumbag finally knows how to hit my soft spot after our divorce.'Stella was flabbergasted with joy before something suddenly popped into her head."Is Bella really not your first love?"Keegan was speechless."Why would you ask such a question?"Keegan thought about it. He figured he probably met with Bella too often when Coco needed her blood. However, Bella crossed the line by hiring reporters to photograph them together.That made Keegan very angry. He even made a nosy media company go bankrupt to send a message.However, Bella became increasingly famous, and it became harder for him to suppress the media than before. But the media still dared not publish anything about him, so he was not expecting Stella to think he had a romantic relationship with Bella.Worse still, Stella even thought that Bella was his first love.Stella pouted. "I heard people talking about it when we took the wedding photos a few days before the ceremony.
Keegan added to make Stella feel less embarrassed. "You were still young and innocent back then."Stella was speechless."Why didn't you sleep in the same bed as me when we first married?"Keegan kept quiet."Would you not ask such personal questions?"Stella said, "There's no outsider here anyway. Can't you just tell me?""Well, I can," Keegan said gently, "However, we're neither dating nor married now. I'm afraid you'd find me inappropriate and deduct my points if we talked about this topic."'And now he wants to be appropriate? He acted completely different when I said I would wear the fishnet for him.'Stella said, "I'm going to give you some extra points if you tell me.""How many?""Two hundred."Keegan said, "Make it five hundred. It involves my privacy, after all."He thought the same old trick would work on Stella again, but Stella said, "Forget it then."Keegan was confused."Do you... not want to know the truth?""Nope," Stella said, "I thought about it, and y
Keegan was a little disappointed. He said lowly, "I'll just take a single glance from afar."Stella relented a little after hearing his pitiful pleas."Then come with Mr. Snyder. If you come alone and get photographed, people will make up stories again."Keegan suddenly felt happy."Alright. Go and read your script, then. Don't stay up too late.""Mhm."Stella reluctantly hung up the phone and rubbed her hands on her face.'Our conversation got me all worked up. How could I focus the script right now?' she thought.Leighton only saw the trending topic when he returned from the hospital. Then, he immediately blew up. When Estelle was not looking, he logged on to Facebook and made a post.[Who else to piggyback on, if not someone with good acting skills? Someone who pulls publicity stunts? When are we rehearsing the lines? @StellaJewell]Initially, Keegan had already cleared up most of the trending topics. However, the topics immediately trended again after Leighton's post.He
Trevor asked while walking into the house, "Where's he?""Upstairs," said Estelle.Then, Trevor went upstairs without another word.'Why's Trevor suddenly visiting? Hasn't he gone to Salcator?' wondered Estelle. However, he could not ponder for long and hurriedly followed Trevor.Leighton was sweating buckets in the gym room upstairs. The stereo in the room was really loud. After Trevor opened the door, the heavy metal music rushing to him almost pushed him back out.'What kind of shit music does he listen to?' Trevor thought. He walked up to the stereo and unplugged it. Leighton frowned the moment the music stopped. When he turned around and saw Trevor, his face fell even more."What are you doing here?"Trevor said, "Your dad called you, and you didn't answer. So I'm here in his stead to check on you."Leighton snorted."He didn't feel bad when he put his hands on me. So why is he acting like a loving father when others do so?""You're overthinking," Trevor glanced at him.
However, Leighton did not expect Trevor to return from Royalburgh so soon this time.Trevor stuck out his leg and pulled the chair next to him over. Then, he sat down and asked, "You're acting in Stuart Winfield's movie?"Leighton rolled his eyes at him, "Why are you asking when you already know?"Trevor got straight to the point."Quit the production. I'll find you another one."Leighton immediately rejected him, "No!"Trevor studied him, "Don't you know how scary your fans are? They roasted my artist until she became a trending topic when the filming hadn't even started. We aim to win an award with this film, so don't create any trouble for me.""Who's creating trouble?" Leighton was displeased. He continued, "Someone's intentionally sowing discord. I've already made a clarification post on Facebook.""You call that clarification?" Trevor had a slight headache. "Do you think others can't tell who you're talking about with that sarcasm of yours?"'The target in Leighton's cla
Leighton immediately raised his guard, "You're not thinking of doing backdoor deals with her, right? You can't do such a shameless thing even if you're a grownup. I won't help you!"Trevor was offended."No wonder your parents are trying for a second child when they're in their forties. If their dumbass child takes over the family business, it'll get ruined sooner or later."Leighton twitched his eyelids in annoyance, "That's because the country has liberalized the birth policy. What does that have to do with me?""Don't you talk nonsense with me. Do you remember the things I told you?"The matter involved Stella, so Leighton obviously had to get to the bottom of things. And so, he interrogated Trevor, "Why are you asking me to protect Stella? She's not the only actress in your company, right? So why are you giving her special treatment?"Initially, Trevor wanted to reveal Stella's identity directly. Then, however, he had second thoughts.'Leighton is acting very weird today. In
"His sister initially wanted to splash his ex-wife, as in Stella, and Leighton shielded her. So he's probably avenging his ex-wife."Trevor's expression turned serious. After a while, he finally said, "Keep him in check, and don't let him make Facebook posts rashly. Let him join the set only when his injuries are fully recovered. I'll speak to the crew.""Alright."After Trevor finished talking with Estelle, he dialed the company's PR manager."Sorry to bother you this late, Sampson. I'm sure you've seen the trending topics. Figure out a way to keep Stella out of this mess. You work out a plan, and I'll get Leighton on board."The person on the other end said, "Mr. Saun, I can come up with a plan. But honestly, I think you're being a bit too protective of Ms. Jewell. "These trends usually fade in a few days. For an actor, it's not a big deal. It's smarter to steer attention elsewhere rather than erase it completely. "Also, Ms. Jewell doesn't have a standout project yet. If the
"There's no need," Keegan withdrew his gaze. He continued, "Make the arrangements for her to stay at my grandparents' residence.""Yes, sir."The car drove past Keegan's and disappeared into the traffic. On the way there, Keegan received a text from Stella.[My company got a car to drive me there, so you and Mr. Snyder can go straight to the set.]Keegan frowned and thought for a while before he sent a reply.[Alright.]'Since she won't let me driver her, I could take a glance at her, right?' he thought.At nine o'clock, the doorbell at unit 901 rang. Stella was still doing her makeup. When Shea saw Stella wanting to head to the entryway, she quickly stood up and said, "I'll go get it."Shea was momentarily startled when she opened the door, "Kai? Mr. Saun?"Trevor said warmly, "Are you guys ready?""Almost," Shea hurriedly welcomed them in. She was puzzled.'Why'd Mr. Saun come here in person?' she wondered.Just as they got to the living room, Stella came outside. She had
