Chapter 248
There was a photograph of the two on Keegan’s desk.
In the photograph, Keegan wore a suit as he sat in a chair, while Stella stood beside him in a red dress.
The man had an icy expression, while the woman had an alluring smile.
It was taken during the break time of their wedding photo shoot back then. The photographer thought the two made a beautiful scene, so he took a photo of them doing these poses.
The finished product looked good. It was also Stella’s favorite photo. This photo was also the huge wedding photo framed on the wall of their living room.
Stella even deliberately developed a smaller copy and had it framed into a photo frame. Then, she sent it to Keegan’s office. After Aldor signed the parcel, he placed the photo on Keegan’s desk.
What Stella was currently drawing was that photo of them.
However, Stella drew herself beautifully, while the place Keegan stood had a dog. Besides that, Stella had a dog leash in her hand.
“What’re you drawing?” the man’s icy voice sounded above her head.
Stella replied in a serious voice, “A self-portrait. Does it look alike?”
Keegan gritted his teeth, “And the dog?”
Stella looked away a little guiltily, “I drew it on a whim. Since you don’t allow me to have a pet. dog, you’re not even allowing me to draw one?”
‘Stella had been to drawing classes before. Since Rainee had always been very attentive to her education, Stella had attended various classes in her childhood, such as drawing, dancing, piano, and flute. She had even gone to harp classes for two years. While she did not last long in her classes, she has great talent. She’s considered a jack of all trades, a master of none. For instance, professionals may find her current drawing passable at most, but an average person would find it incredibly picturesque. The dog in the drawing, in particular, has a look that. completely resembles me! How could I possibly believe her bullshit?!’ he thought.
Marshall walked over when he saw the two “discussing” Stella’s drawing. He glanced at it and blurted, “Why does the dog look so much like Keegan?”
“Does it?” Stella denied it. “I don’t think it does. The dog isn’t as good-looking as Mr. Kane.”
Keegan was speechless.
Marshall noticed the odd atmosphere between the two, so he chuckled and said, “This is a pretty good drawing.”
Stella smiled with her eyes, “See? Even Mr. Moore says it’s good. Do you want to frame it? This drawing will be worth a lot of money if my worth multiplies someday.”
She said as she signed her name and the bottom right corner of the drawing.
“One and only.”
Keegan twitched the corner of his lips.
“I’m afraid I won’t be able to see that day in my lifetime,” he said.
Stella cursed him internally.
‘Bad-mouthed bastard,’ she thought.
Then, she turned to Marshall, “Mr. Moore, are you two done talking?”
Marshall nodded.
“Then have lunch with me. I…” Stella paused momentarily and continued, “My husband’s treat.”
Keegan was at a loss for words. Since Stella had already said so, he obviously could not refuse. Just as the three walked out of the office, they bumped into Sophia.
She was holding a fruit platter and heading in their direction. When she saw them, she froze and immediately smiled, “Stella, Mr. Kane, Mr. Moore. Are you all leaving?”
