Chapter 23
Stella was dumbfounded. ‘Why didn’t the sugar seal your mouth shut then, if I put too much sugar? Ugh, whatever. I should just put up with him since I’m the one who is asking him for something.”
She smiled apologetically, and with a good attitude, she said, “Noted. I haven’t been in the kitchen for a long time, so I must be getting rusty. Sure enough, Keegan’s facial expression looked better after that. Stella then took the opportunity to say, “Mr. Kane, us having this divorce is like us getting married. We have to choose a date. You see, we got married on an unlucky day. As a result, our marriage didn’t go well, and we couldn’t make it to the end. So, we have to pick a good day to get divorced so that our previous marriage won’t fetter us, and we will be able to find new love. I’ve checked the dates, the 21st, 24th, 25th, 26th, 27th, 28th, and 31st of this month are all good days to get divorced. Should we just pick one from all the days I just mentioned?”
“Every day is a good day except for weekends, huh?” Keegan sneered, seeing right through her little scheme.
“There are just more auspicious days in this month,” said Stella cheekily, but he ignored her. She was not going to give up without getting an answer, so she continued, “Which day do you think is the most suitable, Mr. Kane?”
In the end, Keegan was so annoyed by her muttering that he said with a dark face, “Say another word, and you’ll have to give this gift yourself.” Stella was speechless. All the soft words she had in her had run out. “Those are two different things, Keegan! I’ve kept my end of the deal, so why can’t you?!” She said annoyedly.
Keegan’s brows relaxed a little when he saw her wild side. He tapped the lunch box with his fork and said, “Stella, you’re the one who wants a divorce and not tell your father about it. How could we ever keep this up?” Stella did not know what to say. She did not want to let Albert know about her divorce.
