Chapter 1111
“What are you talking about? This hairstyle has been trending these past few years,” said Stella. Keegan pulled out a picture of Isaac Newton and compared Stella’s hairstyle with his, concluding that it was a century-old fashion. Stella was so mad that she went to straighten her hair the next day.
‘I can’t believe he compared Grandma’s perm to a clown’s wig,’ she thought. “Then… I’ll have Keegan send me a few pictures of Sevin and forward them to you.”
“Ask him to take some close-ups, and don’t try to fool me,” said Cordelia.
After Stella agreed to Cordelia’s request, she ran downstairs, lured Sevin out with some bait, and took pictures of the fish with her phone. She waited a long time before sending the photos in order to appear that they were sent to her by Keegan.
Cordelia was eating some grapes in her garden when she heard the phone ring. She asked Baldwin to pick it up and saw that it was photos of the koi. She then grabbed her reading glasses and said, “Zoom in the picture, Baldwin.”
Baldwin zoomed in on the photo, and Cordelia saw Stella’s figure from the reflection in the pond. She was squatting on the water bank, taking pictures of the fish with her phone.
“That darn kid! How dare he trick me?” Cordelia took off her glasses and threw them aside. “I knew something was up when Maria told me that Keegan hadn’t been home much lately. Then, Aldor came and got Sevin. He said Keegan felt that the yard was empty and wanted a pet. Why would he want a pet koi when he’s afraid of water?! I can’t believe that brat is hiding the fact that he and Stella are back together!”
“Maybe they don’t want to go public yet because Ms. Jewell has a new image now,” said Baldwin.
“That’s a stupid excuse!” Cordelia grunted. “When are they going to be official if not now? Are they going to wait till Stella becomes an international superstar? She probably wouldn’t even want him anymore when that time comes!”
Baldwin did not know what to say.
It seemed as if Cordelia’s grandson was worthless when compared to her granddaughter-in-law. Still, she was happy at the thought of them reconciling. “Say, do you think they’re sleeping together?” asked Cordelia.
