Chapter 69
The executives of Vinci Rivera Group were having a meeting
Keegan was rummaging through the papers silently as the vice president spoke.
vibrated
His phone on the table vibrated. He swept his glance across the text and ignored it.
Vermont got very impatient while waiting for Keegan’s reply because he could not wait any longer to see his reaction
So, he cropped the pictures and zoomed in on Marshall holding Stella’s hand before sending them to Keegan again.
Your wife is holding hands with another man]
Keegan finally grabbed his phone and viewed the pictures.
Clearly, the pictures were taken from a distance because of how blurry they looked. However, he could tell that the lady was
Stella from the way she dressed, but the man’s face who was holding her hand was blocked by the plants around him. Keegan
could not see that man’s face.
Keegan frowned.
Meanwhile, Vermont continued adding fuel to the fire as if he wanted things to turn worse.
[Did your wife want a divorce from you because she found a new man?]
[But, her new man is so terrible. How could he bring her to such a cheap restaurant? I wonder what your wife sees in him. Could
it be genuineness and innocence?]
Keegan ignored that firebrand and texted Stella instead.
[Where are you?]
Stella saw Keegan’s text when they were ordering food. She swept her glance across her phone and put it away.
After they were done ordering, she received a few other texts.
[Why aren’t you replying?]
[Text me back if you see this.]
[Did you go blind?]
[Stella Jewell, are you ignoring me on purpose“]
Stella’s mouth twitched.
Why does he have so many questions, right now? He wouldn’t care at all when I go out back then
Keegan then sent her a picture as soon as she was about to put her phone away again.
It was a picture of the binding financial agreement she gave him yesterday
Stella’s mouth twitched again. What an asshole. He only knows how to threaten me with this?
Then, she immediately texted back. I just saw your texts. I was ordering food just now
[Where are you“)
in a restaurant near my university)
[I thought you went shopping with your friends.]
[I did. We got tired, so we came to eat.]
“Why is he suddenly asking me about this?”
Stella looked at her surrounding subconsciously and found that there was no one suspicious around her ‘Keegan didn’t send
someone to follow me, right?
Then, Stella texted Keegan again, [Mr. Kane, have you eaten yet? I’ll send something over if you haven’t.] [Sure.]
Stella was left speechless.
‘Can’t he tell that I’m just asking that to look polite?
Keegan sent her another text as if he really could not notice it at all. [When will you be here?]
“I just arrived at the restaurant, and I’m still in the queue. I guess I’ll probably need two hours ] Stella told him pretentiously. [Why
don’t I order some takeouts for you instead? I don’t want you to be too hungry while you wait for me.]
After a while, Keegan replied to her. [Don’t worry. I’m in a meeting anyway. Two hours sound just fine.]
Stella’s mouth twitched as she replied. [Okay then, Mr. Kane. Your patience is very much appreciated.]
Vermont got very desperate while waiting for Keegan’s reply outside the restaurant.
They were holding hands! How could he be so calm about it?!
Does he really want to divorce his trophy wife so badly that he doesn’t care about getting cheated on?”
“Knock, knock.” Somebody knocked on Vermont’s car window twice.
