Of course Aldor refused to answer the phone. 'How is it possible to book movie tickets on Valentine's Day? It's already considered good enough that I could get tickets for "Evil Days." Don't be dissatisfied!'Stella saw Keegan pulling a poker face and could not get through after a long time. So, she sighed, "Forget it. Let me ask if we could cancel it and exchange it for something else."Thus, Keegan and Stella went to inquire again, only to be told that the two tickets had a special offer. It was non-refundable and non-exchangeable. Besides, all tickets for other movies during this time had sold out, unless they wanted to book for the midnight show. However, no one wanted to watch it since Valentine's Day was over during the midnight show.Seeing that they were hesitating, the ticket seller persuaded them, "In fact, this movie contains many elements of love and is also suitable for couples. It has been played several times today and has sold well."Stella found it hard to believe.
'Is this the element of love that the ticket seller said?' Stella was shocked.The following plot was completely chaotic. The complicated relationship between the five protagonists and the sex implications shot when they escaped together made Stella lose interest in the story.Instead, Stella turned her attention to Keegan, who was watching with great enjoyment.'Is it really that good? He is staring at it without even blinking.'Stella looked at the screen again. Suddenly, she found that the heroine had a good figure. She was not sure what the director was thinking, but the heroine's clothes were designed to accentuate her curves. Even Stella could not help but take another glance.'Does Keegan like this type of woman?'There was a strange feeling arose in Stella's heart. It seemed as if she never knew what Keegan's aesthetics toward the opposite sex was. She used to think that it was the type like Bella that had an innocent look. However, she had no idea after she found out tha
'I didn't say it because there was none. But, is it because her first love broke up with her in two weeks, so she didn't want to say it?'Stella was someone who never took responsibility after teasing. Her words disturbed Keegan's heart, and then she started watching the movie again. So, Keegan's mind was completely out of the movie during the next half of it and was full of thoughts about who her sexual fantasy was.Keegan kept frowning as he walked out of the theater. Stella noticed that he still looked despondent when she returned with drinks, so she placed the cold drinks against his neck. The sudden chill caused Keegan to shake off his thoughts immediately.Stella glanced at him and asked, "Do you want to continue watching?""Huh?" Keegan could not get the meaning of Stella's words.Stella said casually, "I didn't expect you, who are usually serious, to have the same taste as Mr. Snyder. Don't you like the one with the curvy body?"Finally, Keegan understood her meaning.St
Stella glanced at the time and said, "It's late now. Thanks for driving me to a movie today. Let's call it a night and head back to our respective homes."Stella turned around and left after speaking. Keegan grabbed her wrist abruptly and pulled her back into his arms."Are you done?" Keegan's eyes were ardent. "You should have given me a chance to say a few words after you finished, right?"Stella looked at him. "What do you want to say?""You don't have to try to make me give up. Do you think I don't know that you did that to me on purpose? You keep testing my tolerance for you. Don't you believe in my determination to be with you?"Stella licked her lower lip without saying anything. Her undeniable crush on him and mixed feeling were easily found out by Keegan.Keegan held her hand and whispered, "I know you have a lot of uncertainties about me in your heart. I also know that the issue of childbirth has been weighing on your mind. I won't force you to make a choice so soon. If
The matter of infertility was something that largely affected Stella. She must have gathered a lot of courage to take the first step into discussing having children. Keegan felt a lot of intense emotions at that time. He turned his head and gently rubbed against Stella and said in a soft tone, "Let's go make a wish on a sky lantern."Stella froze for a moment and said subconsciously, "Aren't you afraid of being caught?""Nah. We can write Vermont's name on the lantern," he replied.Stella was speechless. 'No wonder Vermont pranks him all the time. He isn't particularly nice to him either.'There was a lantern event on 10th Street near Lumi River that day. The whole road was covered with lanterns. If one stood at the intersection, the century-old alley would look lively with endless lights illuminating it.While they were there, Stella saw an antique mask in one of the booths. She picked it up, put it to her face, and asked Keegan if it looked good."It looks good on you," he said
Stella was also involved in this whole thing, so she could not exactly try to show her sympathy for Jaylene. If she did not look at Keegan from an ex-wife's perspective, Keegan was indeed a very attractive man. It was not surprising for girls to have a crush on him.However, Jaylene showing affection for her ex-husband so soon after their divorce was not ideal, especially since Stella had saved her before. Matters of the heart could not be controlled, but there was still a need for moral restraint.Stella did not want to define someone through something like that, and she certainly did not want to stay and embarrass that person. So, she took Keegan's hand and whispered, "Let's go somewhere else.""Okay," Keegan replied and pulled her away.Jaylene looked at the familiar Red Agate bracelet on Stella's wrist and clenched her fingers tight. She was both embarrassed and humiliated. Her face was ashen. She had dolled herself up for this date, but Keegan gave her over to Jackson. She dia
Stella got out of the car and followed Keegan. While they were in the elevator, Keegan suddenly asked, "Do you think it's still raining?""Probably not. The weather forecast didn't predict any rain. It'll most likely stop in a while," Stella replied."The rain lasted for two hours last time," said Keegan. Stella immediately recalled the two of them being drenched when she heard that. "Well, we're not outside this time."After she said that, the elevator door opened, and Keegan walked out. "It's not safe to drive in the rain," he said.Stella paused and realized why he could not stop talking about the weather. The guy was looking for an excuse to stay. Stella was amused, but with a serious look on her face, she said, "Drive slow.""We're here. You can go now," she added.Keegan let out a disappointed sigh of acknowledgment and said in a low voice, "I want to see you go in." He thought that Stella would pity him and invite him in for some tea. But, she slammed the door behind her a
Keegan kissed Stella's lips again and said, "Thank you for taking that one step. You're much braver than me taking those 99 steps toward you."Stella was surprised that their 18+ romance had turned into a high school romance. 'Fuck,' she thought to herself."Stella, I—" Before Keegan could finish his words, Stella suddenly grabbed his collar and started biting his lips. She was not as patient as him. She kissed him passionately and let go of him after that. She then stared at him and said, "You idiot!"Keegan was confused. Stella jumped off the shoe cabinet with a dark face and walked away. Keegan did not know why she was mad. 'She was fine with me kissing her earlier.'Just as he was thinking about it, the doorbell rang. Keegan came back to his senses and answered the door. It was the community security guard holding a bouquet of flowers. The security guard was shocked when he saw a man open the door. "Is Ms. Jewell home?" he asked.Keegan glanced at the bouquet and said lightly,
