Keegan nodded. “We can’t always be passive like this. I’ve got to eventually figure out why Marshall hates me. If we don’t solve the problem from the root, he’ll never stop.”
Paranoia was one of Marshall’s major symptoms of his dissociative disorder.
Stella gladly took on this task.
Then, a message popped up in the “Thick as Thieves” group chat.
Vermont glanced at it. When he realized that it was from Stella, he snorted, not bothering to read it.
He had not forgotten how this woman had previously encouraged him to trick Felicity into marrying him.
‘What a hypocrite!’ he thought to himself.
However, he still saw the message despite not opening it.
After a while, Felicity came out of her room and approached him with her phone. “Stinky Cucumber, Stella and Keegan are fighting!” “Oh,” Vermont responded indifferently. “They do that very often, don’t they? It’s nothing surprising. You’ve been asking her to break up with him, yet they’re still inseparable.
Just let them be.” “It’s different this time!” Felicity sat next to Vermont and said to him, “Stella is pregnant, and her preference for food has changed. Last night, she wanted to eat some pelmeni. She asked Keegan to go out and buy her some, but he refused and lied to her, saying the shop was closed.
“Then, this morning, Coco told Keegan that she wanted to eat some Boova Shenkel. So, he drove thirty miles just to buy them for her without complaining. After Stella found out, she started arguing with him.
“Keegan said she was being unreasonable by being so calculative with a child. Stella got so angry that she’s been crying since.”
Vermont paused, “l-ls she that fragile?”
