Chapter 286
The three had to persuade Arthur not to buy the swimming shorts. Keegan glanced at Stella, who could not stop yawning, and
frowned. “Did you really have to shoot the drama all night yesterday?”
Last night, Stella told him she was going to the set to film Jurisdiction. Keegan thought she would return after a while, but she did
not return until it was 5:00 am.
Stella yawned again and again on their way to the cruise ship. “Do you hear yourself? We can’t film night scenes in the day, can
we?”
Before Keegan could speak, Stella put on her earplugs and said, “I’ll take a quick nap. Wake me up when we arrive.” She then
closed her eyes after she said that. Keegan did not say a word and frowned in dissatisfaction. He had pushed back so much of
his work just to accompany her, she only wanted to sleep.

When Stella woke up, they had already arrived at their destination. The cruise ship that they were about to board suddenly
appeared in front of her eyes. It was as tall as a six or seven – story building and looked about 500 feet long to the naked eye. It
was more magnificent than the one she had taken on a previous European trip.
As soon as Arthur got out of the car, a server on board came over immediately and thoughtfully provided wheelchairs for the
elderly. Initially, the old man insisted that he would go on the ship himself, but when he looked down, he realized that he was
afraid of heights. His legs turned into jelly, so he quickly sat in the wheelchair.
Many people had already gathered on the ship, and someone came over to greet Keegan as soon as he entered the place.
Stella was so sleepy that she got the room key and told Aldor to take good care of her great- grandfather because she wanted to
sleep in the cabin.
By the time she woke up from her sleep, it was already dark. Stella lifted the curtains and saw that the sun was about to set. The
sea was dyed orange-red by the sunset glow. It was sparkling under the light, looking beautiful.
A few fish jumped out of the water from time to time, which made Stella hungry.
The last meal she had was when she was on set. She fell asleep when she got home and had not had a single bite since then.
‘It’s six o’clock now. Are they not serving us dinner yet? Keegan is such an unreliable guy. Why didn’t he come up and call for
me?’ Stella thought and freshened up briefly before leaving the cabin.
The deck lights were bright. People were dancing and playing board games in the lounge. The place looked lively.
Stella looked around, but she could not see Keegan or Arthur. Just as she was about to call Keegan’s number, she saw Marshall.
“Mr. Moore?”
Marshall was chatting with a friend when she called out to him. He was a little surprised when he saw her. He then looked
around and said, “Are you here alone?”
“I took a nap in our room earlier, and I couldn’t find Keegan when I woke up. Have you seen him anywhere?”
He was here with Vermont just now. I’ll bring you to him.”
Stella waved her hand and said, “Do you know where the food is? I’m super hungry at the moment.”
Marshall was taken aback for a second. He chuckled and warmly said, “Come with me.”
Dinner was served a little later than usual because of the party on the deck. Lunch was served earlier, but Stella missed it
because she wanted to sleep.
Marshall led Stella to the back kitchen, where the head chef was preparing the food for the evening. When he saw the two in the
kitchen, he wanted to shoo them away. However, Marshall explained their situation. The chef did not speak their language, but
Marshall knew many languages. Although Stella could not understand what they were saying, she knew that their conversation
was going well as she saw the head chef nodding repeatedly.
After that, the chef brought them deeper into the kitchen and gave them a pan and some ingredients. Stella was confused.
