Chapter 822
No one knew Vermont’s third wheeling was a nuisance to Keegan.
However, Keegan did force him to watch their lovers’ antics. In actual fact, Keegan and Stella did not say much between themselves. Not many cheesy lines were said throughout, but the atmosphere was another matter. Without saying much, there were still rings of pink bubbles, and he was about to drown in those bubbles.
After a few drinks, Stella got up to go to the washroom. Keegan’s gaze finally landed on Vermont, ‘ Are you full now?”
“Stop being so smug,” Vermont rolled his eyes at him, ’She kissed you because she likes your face. What correlation is between that and Stella liking you as a person?” Keegan’s expression did not change, “At least I have the prerequisite for her to like me. Unlike someone who only knows how to lie.”
Vermont was at a loss for words.
‘Where is my sword!’ Vermont screamed in his thoughts.
There were many customers today at The Deli; hence quite a few were queuing for the washroom. When Stella walked past the corridor, she saw an employee of the restaurant hang up a sign. She noticed that it was Valentine’s Day today.
‘No wonder there were more customers than usual,’ she thought.
When she entered the bathroom stall, she heard someone outside say,” Sophia, will you attend Ms. Moore’s birthday next week?”
Stella’s movements froze.
‘It can’t be a coincidence, right?’ She thought.
Yet, such a coincidence had happened. Sophia’s voice very swiftly came, “I probably would attend.”
After Stella had been cast out of the Jewell family, Sophia was accepted into the family honorably and was finally recognized as the daughter of the Jewell family. She was unfamiliar with Molly, but Molly’s stepfather was her uncle. Hence, they have a pretty close relationship. If she did go, the gift she would send could not be too shabby. Her father was not as generous when giving her money recently.
