Chapter 2079
"Did you guys hear what I said?" asked Aurora.
Stella shuffled the cards and laid them out in front of Keegan for him to draw. Then, she
replied to Aurora, "How hardworking of Jaylene to be working overtime."
Keegan glanced at the cards in Stella's hand before drawing one himself. As he turned it
over, he realized it did not match with the cards he had.
Stella immediately got excited. "Pay up, pay up!" she said.
Holding the ace of spades, Keegan furrowed his brow. "Did you swap cards when I wasn't
looking?"
Aurora interjected loudly, "I said Jaylene is working overtime. How are you two still in the
mood to play?"
Neither of them paid any attention to her this time.

"Hand over my phone. I'll transfer the money to you," Keegan told her despite being
skeptical.
Stella immediately sat up and reached for the charging phone. When she did that, Keegan
noticed that she was sitting on the three of hearts.
He pulled out the card from under her, his expression darkening. "You cheated."
Caught in the act, Stella chuckled awkwardly. "Well... How about you transfer me fifty
thousand dollars?"
Keegan glared at her. "I'm not giving you a cent!"
"Honey," Stella called out.
Keegan said, "Ten thousand."
Stella called out again, "Darling."
"100 thousand," Keegan responded.
"My love, my dear. Oh, so fine. Hand me over those bills of mine. I'll snuggle close, oh so
tight. I'll sleep with you all through the night!" Stella teased.
Keegan could not help but chuckle upon hearing that. "Alright, alright. I'll transfer you the
money."
Aurora had no expression on her face. However, she wanted to strangle the two for being
so lovey-dovey.
'With Keegan's limited brainpower, he could never outsmart Stella! She's so cunning!'
thought Aurora.
After fooling around with Stella, Keegan finally acknowledged Aurora." Don't you have a
date with Aldor? What are you still doing here?"
"I already told you that his mom wanted to attend a relative's wedding, so he went with
her to pick out an outfit!" Aurora grumbled.

'I knew it! He was so busy fooling around with Stella that not a single word I said
registered in his brain!' she thought.
Keegan remarked, "Aldor doesn't know anything about styling someone. You, on the other
hand, are very familiar with shopping for clothes. Why didn't you go help out?"
"Aldor didn't ask me to go," Aurora replied.
"Are you mute?" Keegan glanced at her. "Couldn't you have suggested it?"
Aurora was annoyed. "I'm not the one courting him."
Stella, who had been pretending to be oblivious, suddenly interjected. She asked, "So you
don't like Aldor?"
Aurora was taken aback for a moment. "I-" She struggled to come up with a response.
"I can't be bothered to explain to you two!" With that, she stormed upstairs.
Once Aurora left, Keegan commented, "Aren't you worried? Your opponent has been
working hard all night."
Stella chuckled and asked, "Did I ever tell you about what happened during my SAT?"
