Chapter 2209 Stella retorted, "Just cut Keegan sslack. You're not just his uncle; you're also his good friend. After you punched him last night, Keegan was upset all night and couldn't sleep. The next day, he went to work with two black eyes." As for dealing with Dad, she had other tricks up her sleeve.
Trevor wasn't entirely convinced. "Do | really have that much influence on him?" "Of course! You've grown up together. If you don't trust him, imagine how he feels." Trevor fell silent for a moment. Just when Stella thought she had him, Trevor smirked and said, "Let him suffer then. If he thinks he can fool me, he needs a few more years of practice." Stella was rendered speechless.
No wonder Keegan always called his brother a fox; his schemes were deep! With just one phone call from Darcie, Jaylene decided she didn't want to pursue the issue with Dahlia any longer.
It was easy to imagine how angry Darcie must be. The mother and daughter started arguing in the ward.

Darcie's face turned green. "Do you think Keegan will forgive you if you don't pursue Dahlia? What kind of dream are you living in? He hasn't shown up since you got into trouble. Do you still not understand where he stands?" Jaylene remained stubborn. "Keegan is in a difficult position, and all of this is Stella's scheme. She's the one pushingto sue Dahlia. | won't do as she wishes." "Even if it's her scheme, Dahlia borrowed money from Stella. Why did you rush to give her money? Leave this matter to me; I'll handle it myself." Before Jaylene could say anything else, there was a knock on the door.
Darcie composed herself and walked over to open it. As soon as she saw who it was, her expression changed instantly. [x] Jaylene tilted her head, only able to see a pair of dusty men's shoes. She asked, "Mom, who's there?" 1 "No one.
You rest, I'll be back in a moment." With that, Darcie pushed the person at the door out and closed it.
Felicity had finished the short play script she wrote for Stella and said she would send it over for her to review.
Since there wasn't much going on at noon, Stella booked a restaurant and arranged to meet Felicity and Vermont to discuss it in detail.
The new product launch event for the Vinci Rivera Group was scheduled for next Monday. Keegan had been extremely busy lately, so Stella thought she'd ask him what dishes he wanted to eat and help him order. But when Keegan heard they were going to discuss the script, he insisted on coming. Stella went to pick him up.
From afar, Stella saw Keegan coming out of the building in a suit. He was accompanied by several colleagues leaving work together. Although their suits were similar in style, Keegan had a way of standing out. As soon as he appeared, his superior facial features and tall figure made everyone else fade into the background.
He was ridiculously handsome.

Keegan was the kind of person who had hit the genetic jackpot. He had inherited all the best traits from his parents. His father looked good in pictures, but compared to Keegan, there was still a big difference. It was hard to say who the twins would resemble more in the future. Keegan was handsome, but their family's genes were unpredictable. Among their numerous descendants, Keegan was the only one with such extraordinary looks.
Stella was lost in thought when the back door was opened. Keegan unbuttoned his suit and got in. Stella handed him swater. "Feeling tired?"
Keegan shook his head, took a sip: and replied, "I've been checking the details of the launch event these days .It's not too tiring just a lot of small tasks. Will you be coming to "on n : the event?" "Of course," Stella smiled Fra and said, TH be there to cheer you on and bask in the glory of being your wife." Keegan was delighted, his eyes shining. "Then, I'll save you a seat." "Great." Stella took out the orange and handed it to Keegan. "I brought this especially for you." Keegan was initially happy, but when he saw the orange, his smile faded. He calmly said, "I don't want it."
Stella was puzzled, "But don't you love oranges?" Besides strawberries, Keegan's favorite fruit was oranges .He particularly
enjoyed sweet fruits, except for mangoes, as he was allergic to them.
Keegan hesitated to say at first, but when pressed by Stella, he gritted his teeth and said You let your brother pick out the best one, and you leavewith the inferior one? Am | a | garbage can? | don't want leftovers q " 3 from him!"
