Stella then stood up and headed to the kitchen with the strawberries in her hand.
Coincidentally, Aurora came down from upstairs. Stella paused, asking, “Are you going out?”
Aurora glanced at her and ignored her.
Stella asked again, “I’m making strawberry pudding for Keegan. Do you want some?”
Aurora hesitated for a moment and casually replied, “I don’t care.”
Stella gritted her teeth, ‘If it weren’t for you doing me a favor these past two days, I wouldn’t even talk to you!’ She took a deep breath, telling herself not to argue with Aurora, Tm pregnant and have to keep myself happy, happy… It Stella had not cooked anything in a long time, so she was afraid of messing it up. She called Felicity to get the recipe again and then started working.
Meanwhile, Felicity had just hung up the phone and told Vermont, “After Stella got pregnant, it seems like she’s become more amiable. She used to hate Aurora, but just now, on the phone, she even said she would make strawberry pudding for her. Can pregnancy hormones have such a big impact?”
While turning the steering wheel, Vermont smiled and said,” She’s matured.
Aurora is Keegan’s sister, after all. They can’t possibly avoid each other forever, can they? Aurora is just spoiled by her uncultured mother. She’s not like Molly; her nature isn’t that bad.
“When Keegan just graduated and started his company, he was short on funds.
His mother took away all his funds, claiming she wanted to invest in a beauty salon. When Keegan went to ask her for it, not only did he not get it, but he was also scolded. I was with him then, and her words were pretty harsh.
“Keegan is a reserved person. Even if he’s treated unfairly, he won’t go to his grandmother to complain. Once his grandmother learned about it, Dahlia would get in trouble. She dared not to cross Mrs. Kane Sr., but she sure had her ways to deal with Keegan. That was why the same thing kept happening.
“So, he approached us to borrow some money. We didn’t have much savings at that time, and it was barely enough. Aurora came to me, took out all her savings from over the years, and asked me to give it to Keegan, which resolved his urgent situation at that time.
“Although she benefited from Dahlia’s so-called investment, she wasn’t the instigator. When their father was still okay, the siblings had a good relationship.
