Keegan pulled out a chair and sat next to Stella.
Marshall chuckled, “That’s just him being picky and not appreciating your cooking. It’s clearly delicious.”
Stella gave him a thumbs up. “You got good taste!” Jaylene had initially planned to sit beside Keegan. But, before she could, Trevor cast a glance at her and asked,”
Jaylene, what happened to your face?” Jaylene looked puzzled. “What’s wrong?”
Others turned their attention to her.
Her makeup had been smudged. The foundation and contour on her face were uneven. She looked as though she had been in a fight.
Darcie frowned. “Your makeup is ruined, and you didn’t notice?”
Trevor opened the camera app on his phone to show Jaylene her current appearance.
Jaylene’s expression turned ugly. She glared at Stella, gritted her teeth, and said, “Stella, my makeup is ruined. Why didn’t you tell me earlier? Are you deliberately trying to embarrass me?”
Stella was taken aback.
With Keegan as her backing, Jaylene now dared to confront Stella in front of their father.
When Jaylene questioned her, Wenham, who was absorbed in drinking, snapped out of his trance. “What do you mean deliberately trying to embarrass you? Why do you always think that Stella is targeting you? If she was, why would she save you in the first place?”
Jaylene was momentarily speechless.
“Hurry up and fix your makeup. It looks horrible,” Darcie added.
