Chapter 1225
Leighton glanced at it and gave it back to Keegan. “I don’t smoke.”
Keegan laughed. “It’s not a lighter, but a prank toy my friend gave me. I’m too old for this, but I figured kids like you might like it.”
Although Leighton did not like being referred to as a kid, he felt a little tempted when he heard it was a prank toy. He lifted his gaze and asked, “Is it a lighter that sprays water?”
‘It would be boring if that’s all it does, judging by how well it’s made.’ Leighton said inwardly.
Keegan glanced at him. “Why would I bother giving you something like that?”
‘It’s not?’ Leighton got more interested in it. “What does it do then?”
Keegan grabbed his phone and sent him a picture. “Read the instructions yourself.”
Leighton read it, and his eyes immediately lit up. He wanted to have it, but he hesitated because it was given by Keegan, his crush’s ex-husband. ‘What kind of man am I if I accepted this gift?’ Leighton thought to himself.
Then, he cleared his throat and said, “I didn’t do anything for you, so I can’t take this from you for free. Give me a price.”
Keegan gazed at him. “Stella treats you like her younger brother, so I have to treat you like one too. There’s no need to be so calculative with me.”
Leighton immediately corrected him. “How she treats me has nothing to do with you.”
Then, he transferred fifty thousand to Keegan’s account with his phone. “I won’t take advantage of you.”
‘Ridiculous! He’s my love rival. How could I ever compete with him if I were to accept his gift? Although I have no advantage now, I still have a chance as long as they’re not married!’
Keegan sighed. “Whatever.”
After knowing that Keegan had received the money, Leighton left with the lighter.
