Chapter 285
After Aldor had reported his work that day, something came to his mind. “By the way, during our meeting
today, Mr. Ray called and said that this year the chamber of commerce will be held on a cruise ship. He
even sent an invitation. Mr. Ray said I have to update him about whether you would show up. Are you
going, Mr. Kane?”
“No,” Keegan replied without lifting his head.
Aldor nodded. “Okay, I’ll call Mr. Ray right now.”
The chamber of commerce underwent a massive change a long time ago. They cared more about how
big the event was going to be rather than the content. They even had a cruise ship this time around.
‘Hold on. A cruise ship?’ Keegan paused and called for Aldor, who was about to leave his office. “Wait.
Leave the invitation here.”
Aldor was surprised. “Are you going to the event, sir?”

would at least experience it once,” Keegan said lightly.

Aldor raised his eyebrows. ‘Mrs. Kane went to Europe on a cruise ship two years ago and half a month
there. She even sent Mr. Kane dozens of photos at a time every single day she was there. But, Mr. Kane
never replied. They had only been married for half a year at that time, but I never felt the honeymoon
phase between them. I even thought he did not care much about his newlywed wife.
‘One time, Mr. Kane suddenly acted a little strange. Every time he heard his phone ring during a meeting,
he would immediately pick it up to look at it. At first, I thought Mr. Kane was waiting for a message from a
client. But, he would frown whenever a client texted him.’
‘Three days later, Mr. Kane suddenly received a video of Mrs. Kane feeding dolphins, and his brows
instantly relaxed. Then, I realized that Mr. Kane’s abnormal behavior was caused by his wife not sending
any pictures in those two days.’
‘Mr. Kane has such a good memory. How could he forget that his wife had already been on a cruise
ship?”
Aldor did not dare to ask Keegan about it, nor did he dare to tell him that Stella had gone on a cruise
before. So, he acted ignorant and left the office.
The cruise for the chamber of commerce was going to start from Rivera. They would pass through two
cities and finally return to Rivera. The itinerary lasted for two days and one night.
When Aldor told Stella about it, she quickly lost interest. “It’s all business activities. There’s no point in
me being there. Don’t you guys have many beautiful secretaries in the company? Just ask one of them
to accompany Keegan.”
‘It’s April, and the weather is neither hot nor cold. The cruise is so not going to be fun,’ Stella thought.
“I’m afraid we can’t do that, Mrs. Kane. Only single people bring their secretary or assistant to participate.
Others bring their partners. Mr. Kane is a married man. Rumors are going to spread if he brings a
secretary. You wouldn’t want that, would you, Mrs. Kane?”

his arms,’ she thought.
Stella was still trying to reject the invitation when Arthur came out of his room. Then, Aldor had an idea.
“Mr. Jewell, do you want to go on a cruise ship?”
As soon as Arthur heard about the cruise ship, he immediately came to his senses. “Does the cruise ship
have multiple floors like the ones we see on TV?”
Aldor nodded. “A two-day and one-night cruise with free boarding and lodging. We’ll also stop in two
cities. Do you want to go, sir?”
Arthur’s eyes lit up. “When are we going?”
Aldor smiled and looked at Stella. “Mr. Jewell wants to go, Madam.”
Stella was speechless. ‘What kind of assistant did Keegan hire?!”
The cruise ship set off in the afternoon the next day. Aldor drove Keegan back after lunch to pick up
Stella and the old man.
Stella looked listless. On the other hand, Arthur was very excited. They passed a shopping mall on the
way, and he even insisted on buying a pair of swimming trunks.
