"It gets even crazier," Vermont continued. "He couldn't decide between that girl and the stand-in. Both women fought fiercely for him, and in the end, the girl accused the stand-in of drug use. After her reputation was destroyed, the stand-in disappeared.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"When the stand-in left, everyone assumed Ricky would reconcile with that girl, especially since their previous conflicts revolved around her. But Ricky remained passive, and the Adam family hinted that that girl would never be accepted. Within a few months, they even arranged for Ricky to meet Mrs. Chapman's eldest daughter. "Over the years, Ricky's been causing trouble, disappointing the Adam family. They had hoped he'd continue the family line, but his drug abuse left him sterile. They planned for his father to carry on with the arrangement, but after the Chapman family incident, the marriage arrangement fell apart.
"But then the stand-in returned, and seeing how Ricky's mood changed drastically, it seems the rumors about him favoring the stand-in were true. If I were that girl, I'd be furious. After all that planning, only to lose control in the end and becsomeone else's pawn." Stella and Keegan were both puzzled.
Stella couldn't resist asking, "How do you know all this?" Even though she claimed not to care, she still wanted to know about Ricky.
But she hadn't heard about this tic story.
Vermont sighed and seemed evasive. "Just overheard sgossip while out drinking." Keegan guessed it probably cfrom his ex-girlfriends who enjoyed gossiping.
The Adam family always kept Ricky's scandals secret, known only to those close to them. Vermont's exes, sof whom were minor celebrities, likely knew Luanna or Ricky. The rumor spread until it reached Vermont's ears.

Thankfully, Stella didn't dwell on it, just furrowing her brow and saying," Then why didn't you tell US earlier?" Now Vermont was confused. "You never asked." He then eyed them suspiciously. 'Why so curious about Ricky?" Stella paused, then glanced at Keegan.
He replied casually, "Can't we be curious? Since you know so much, just tell us."
Stella got the hint. Keegan didn't want Vermont involved, so she m played along, saying, "You're keeping all this juicy gossip to yourself, how selfish!" Vermont was speechless. "It's an old story..."
Then he remembered something and whispered, "But it seems Ricky got someone pregnant. Every the's high he insists it wasn't him, and no one dares to ask. The Adam family has kept it quiet. I haven't seen it myself, but a friend mentioned it." Keegan clenched his fists, his eyelashes trembling. He must be thinking of Jayson's death.
Stella feared Vermont might pick up on something, so she changed the subject. "Wasn't Felicity supposed to cfrom the banquet? Where is she?" Vermont pursed his lips. "Her grandmother fell and needs surgery. Calls kept coming, urging her to go, so she went to visit."
He looked frustrated. "I offered to go with her, but she said I haven't met the criteria. It's entirely up to be right? She thinks the press conference is crucial for Keegan, so she thinks it's essential forto attend. She's so considerate. How did I get so lucky?" X
