Chapter 1862
‘He is bad with his words. I have no idea why Stella loves him so much,’ Wenham and Trevor thought to themselves.
“Then you should go home and celebrate. The e-hailing drivers are probably still working. You can order one online,”
Stella said, throwing his passport at him. "Goodbye."
Holding his passport, Keegan finally realized Stella was angry at him for silently leaving her at home and going abroad with Wenham to find Trevor.
Keegan, concerned for Stella's pregnancy, didn't want her traveling so far abroad. Anything could have happened to
Trevor at that time, and Keegan was worried that Stella's health would be affected by the uncertainties.
However, he had no right to stop her as Trevor was her brother.
Around five in the morning, Wenham sent Keegan a WhatsApp message, telling him that the flights had resumed, and they could leave the country around seven.
Wenham, not wanting Stella to come along, asked Keegan to persuade her otherwise. Knowing it was impossible,
Keegan chose to leave silently.
To their surprise, the person who would always sleep in woke up unusually early that morning.
Keegan looked at Wenham, who seemed a little guilty. Then,
Wenham said, "Stella, it'd probably be difficult to get a cab. Why not ask Keegan to join us for the dinner tonight?”
“Dad, the dinner is meant for family only. What does Mr. Kane have to do with our family?”
Wenham glanced at Keegan. "She's asking you. Answer her.” Keegan's lips twitched slightly as he said, "We're business partners."
Stella paused and immediately understood what Keegan was implying. Her expression instantly darkened and kicked him out of the car.
As the car sped away, Wenham watched Keegan's receding figure and cleared his throat, saying, "My dear daughter, is what we're doing a little ungrateful?”
Stella replied with a stern expression, "He should be glad that Trevor is fine. If anything happened to Keegan and he left me behind, I'd hate him for the rest of my life!”
So, shortly after Stella dropped Keegan off, Aldor arrived at the office.
When he saw Keegan's defeated look, he could not help but laugh. After Keegan got in the car, he teased him, "You hurriedly left to send Mrs. Kane her passport yesterday, yet she didn't even let you join the New Year Eve's dinner?"
With a stern face, Keegan said, “Shut up!”
Aldor then started driving.
Cordelia just would not stop calling Keegan, telling him to bring Stella back for dinner.
Keegan massaged his temple and said, "She went back to the Saun residence."
Cordelia's enthusiasm vanished instantly, and she said in a cold tone, “Oh, if that's the case, don't bother coming back. I'll tell Baldwin to prepare less food.”
Keegan was left speechless.
