Chapter 725
Darcie looked indifferent and explained, “Jaylene is my ex-husband's child, but Wenham treats me well and treats Jaylene as her
own."
Quentin's old classmates were a little embarrassed, and one of them tried to smooth things over. "Wenham is a slave to his
daughter. I heard that he moved his business abroad to find a doctor for Ms. Saun. It seems that she is really spoiled."
The others quickly followed and said, "Jaylene's eyebrows and eyes do look a bit like Wenham, and their father-daughter
relationship is deep."
The matter then passed. The students had reached the age of knowing their own destiny. The children of those who married late
were going to get married soon, and those who got married early had become grandparents. All they talked about was their
children. Whose daughter married a diplomat, whose son settled overseas and married a foreigner, and whose family had
another grandson...
Keegan was not interested in any of the topics they were discussing. He would not have come if he had known that it was a
casual reunion.
Seeing that Keegan looked indifferent and was quiet, Jaylene offered him some eggnog. "Keegan, this eggnog is not bad. Try it."
Keegan gave a short response and transferred one hundred thousand dollars to Stella with the remark, [Are you hungry?]
Stella was at another restaurant at that time.
Initially, she thought that the dinner that Stuart had arranged was with the crew. But, after she arrived, she noticed that there
were not many people from the crew. Instead, they were all Stuart's friends.
Stella did not know them, so she found it awkward. Everyone was drinking and chatting, but Stella just sat in the corner without
eating much. She only responded when someone talked to her, making her seem anti-social.
Stuart had a good relationship with the people who were there, and they were all talking happily with each other. After a few
drinks, Stuart's face turned pale.
Everyone joked around and asked him to sing a section of "The Taking of Tiger Mountain". Stuart took the lead and sang one
section. His voice was good.
The group of people was chattering here and there when the door suddenly opened. Stella lowered her head to sip her drink,
and she did not look up. She only heard someone shout, "Leighton!”
Stuart turned over and smiled immediately. "Leighton, long time no see."
Stella finally looked up after taking a sip. The person was about 6 feet tall. He was wearing a motorcycle suit and a pair of black
jeans. At first glance, Stella noticed that his legs were long, and he looked like a model.
However, his face looked a little funny since he was still wearing sunglasses in such a dark place. His jaw was defined, his lips
were slightly thin, and the corners of the lips were rather sharp. It gave off a wicked feeling.
Stella watched and found that he was smiling. When she looked at him again, his smile was gone.
As he walked over, he said, "We're about to start filming, right? I'm here now."
Stuart patted him on the shoulder and exchanged a few words. Suddenly, as if he had remembered something, he turned to
Stella and said, "Stella, haven't you been asking who’s your partner in the drama? Come and get to know each other."
'It's him?' Stella was puzzled, but her expression remained calm. She extended her hand politely and said, ’ Hi, I'm Stella."
The man stared at her for a few seconds, raised his arms, and took off his sunglasses with his fingers. His eyes were as bright
as stars. He looked at Stella indifferently and said in a casual tone, "I'm Leighton."
