Chapter 1215
Stella pulled the blanket and said nonchalantly, “Aren’t you supposed to be at work?” As she spoke, she realized her voice was a bit hoarse and decided to clear her throat.
A hint of amusement flashed in Keegan’s eyes as he watched her. “It’s the weekend.”
“Oh,” Stella replied while she buried herself under the covers.
Keegan checked the time on his phone and said, “It’s almost 11 o’clock.”
Stella contemplated getting out of bed but felt a little embarrassed with Keegan there since she was not wearing anything under the sheets. Seeing that Keegan was not moving, she decided to engage in some small talk. “I wonder how things are going on Albert’s side.”
“Hylda and Sophia tried to hide Hugo away last night, but Vermont caught them…” Keegan informed Stella of what Vermont and Felicity did last night and concluded with,” He’s probably busy taking a DNA test with Hugo now.”
Stella froze for a moment when she heard that. “I can’t believe Albert spent his whole life longing for a son only to end up raising someone else’s child,” she sneered.
“Let’s hope he can come to terms with it,” Keegan replied.
Stella did not know what he meant, so he explained, “The child is still his wife’s even if it’s not his. They come in a
bundle. So he has to learn how to deal with it unless he wants to get a divorce.”
“I see,” Stella laughed.
“Should we get out of bed?” Keegan glanced at her and asked.
Stella held onto the blanket tightly, trying to appear composed. “You go ahead. I want to lay here a little longer.”
