Chapter 153
After the attendant left, Stella took out her phone and tapped away. Keegan glanced at her phone and
noticed she was on the calculator application.
He asked in bewilderment, “What’re you calculating?”
Stella did not lift her head and continued tapping away on her screen, “I’m calculating how much a bar
like this can earn per month.”
Keegan was speechless.
‘Nowadays, I get increasingly confused about the things in this woman’s head,’ he thought.
“Do bars have peak and off-peak seasons?” Stella asked.
“Yes,” Keegan pursed his lips.
He continued, “Springtime is the off-peak season; many return to their hometowns before and after
spring, so the people flow is significantly lesser. Summertime is the peak season; there’s an increase in
everyone’s nightlives. Besides, bars are considered recreational summer retreats due to the hot weather.
During wintertime, the customer volume is lesser than in the summertime. However, the income is still
decent due to the many festivities.”
Stella seemed really interested in the matter.

“Something like that,” Keegan said and paused momentarily.
He continued, “Why’re you asking?”
“I was wondering if it would be a good idea for me also to open a bar nearby?”
Keegan glanced at her, “Not really. You’ll probably lose money and go out of business before earning
money.”
Stella was speechless.
“All you do is be a wet blanket!”
Keegan frowned, “It’s not that easy running a bar. It took four years before this bar earned a profit; it had
been losing money for the past four years. This location is on the outskirts, and crime rates are high
wherever alcohol is prevalent. Since there are all kinds of customers here, one little slip-up and the bar
will have to suspend its operations because of some matters.”
Stella froze momentarily, “How do you know so much?”
“This bar is one of the Kane family’s properties,” Keegan said coolly.
Stella was at a loss for words.
Seeing Stella’s stunned expression, Keegan added, “It’s within the scope of my administration now.”
Once again, she was at a loss for words.
‘After going through all that fuss, Keegan’s actually the one who came up with this marketing strategy?! I
knew it. There aren’t that many crooked bosses in Rivera!’ thought Stella.
While they were speaking, a girl holding a rose walked up to their table.
“Can I sit next to you, handsome?”
The girl sat at the table behind them just now. She was sweet-looking and had streaks of blonde
highlights. She had long, straight legs under her shorts and washboard abs right above them. She also
wore a skimpy white tank top that barely covered her chest. Her breasts seemed as if they were to spill
out of her top due to their fullness.
Stella looked down at her chest and thought gloomily, ‘Are kids nowadays this well- developed? Even I’m
attracted to that body of hers.’
Meanwhile, Keegan did not spare her a glance. Instead, he said to her indifferently, “Do as you please.”
The girl pulled the chair and sat down. After she placed her hand under her chin, she tilted her head and
openly stared at Keegan.
“Did you come here after work? Not many men here are wearing suits.”
Her voice was so cutesy and flirty that Stella felt as if she were about to go weak.

women.
He even ruined the moment and said, “Is there a rule that suits aren’t allowed?”
The girl smiled with her eyes.
“Of course, there isn’t. Suits expose the shortcomings of one’s physique, but you look really good in a
suit. I couldn’t take my eyes off you when you walked in just now,” she said.
Stella was at a loss for words.
“This girl is… Really good,’ she thought.
“I’m here with a friend,” Keegan answered indifferently,
He did not purposefully come, so he did not intentionally dress up.
The girl understood, “It’s your first time here?”
Keegan did not deny her question.
The girl smiled coolly and placed the rose into the pocket on his chest. Then, she smiled, “I’ll take you
around and familiarize you with this place.”
Stella stared at the rose and was startled for a moment. However, just as Keegan turned to look at her,
she quickly looked down and pretended to look at her phone.
Keegan’s gaze seemingly stayed on her momentarily. Soon after, Stella heard him say, “You’re very
familiar with this place?”
