Chapter 192
Keegan glanced at Stella’s expression. Her eyes were narrowed and seductive as if she was a fox that had eaten to its heart’s content.
He swallowed. Just as he was about to speak, Vermont cut in and teased, “Stella, why don’t you ask if the bracelet comes with a free gift? Keegan looked like he likes free gifts.”
Keegan’s expression darkened. “Since when did I like free gifts?”
Vermont blinked.
“Did Stella give your pair of socks to Marshall after you two had a fight last time?”
Stella chortled. “It’s not that he doesn’t like free gifts; he just isn’t happy with me casually disposing of his things. It’s simply him being possessive.”
‘Possessive…’ thought Vermont.
He smiled with his eyes for a while. Just then, someone came over looking for him. After he bid them goodbye, he walked away.
Stella grabbed Keegan’s hand. “Come on. Pick one.”
Keegan lowered his gaze and looked at Stella’s pale, smooth palm. Then, he slightly tightened his grip.
‘I always say that all Stella thinks about is money, but the truth is she always shares it with me whenever she receives a windfall,’ he thought.
At that thought, Keegan glanced at the price of the cufflinks. The most expensive one was thirty-eight thousand.
He paused and thought again. ‘Although the amount she’s sharing isn’t much.’
The cufflinks were from a niche brand, so their products were not too expensive. However, the salesperson was really friendly and kept on recommending various styles to Stella.
Stella grabbed each of them and held them over Keegan’s cuffs.
