Chapter 1454 [Eleven Jewell]
Leighton’s younger brother, Noah, noticed that Leighton stayed behind and let go of his mother’s hand. “Dad, I want to stay with Jaylene a little longer,” he said.
Daryl, who usually found Noah quite obedient, agreed. He then advised Leighton to bring Noah back when he leaves.
Leighton did not seem pleased. He glanced at the little one beside him and reluctantly agreed.
The Kane family departed quietly without a word, just as they had arrived. The revelation of Stella’s status as the Saun family heiress was too shocking. Their main concern now was the potential of rekindling Keegan and Stella’s past relationship. With the support of the Saun family, Keegan would undoubtedly have a formidable ally, making it less likely for Chandler to seize control of Vinci Rivera.
They needed some time to digest this information. Cordelia and Aurora left with Chandler’s family.
Soon, the guests gradually departed, leaving very few people. Marshall, who had been quietly observing from a corner, finally stood up.
Ariel followed him, as she noticed he was heading toward Stella.
Having worn high heels all evening, Stella’s feet were sore. She vented to Keegan, “High heels are unequivocally a woman’s torture. They look nice, but they’re good for nothing!”
Keegan pursed his lips. “Why does it seem like your description of high heels and your description of me are exactly the same?”
Stella was momentarily taken aback by his response. She laughed softly and said, “That was ages ago. Back then, you were so obnoxious. In my eyes, you were only good-looking and nothing else.”
Keegan glanced at her. “Does that mean your impression of me improved?”
“Of course. If you were still the same as before, how could I ever get along with you?”
Keegan grew curious. “So, what is your evaluation of me now?”
Stella leaned close to his ear. “Handsome and very very naughty,” said Stella.
Keegan did not know how to respond.
