Chapter 1676
Marshall's heart raced, as he said in a low voice, "Hold on tight." Then, he started the bike's engine.
The news of Stella and Marshall "dating" quickly spread among their friends and gained a lot of people's attention.
As Stella's closest friend, Felicity could not believe that she actually heard that from someone else first.
Although she had seen the news online, she did not take them seriously at all. She figured that Keegan would not
have a chance to be with Stella again after the divorce if Stella was really interested in Marshall.
So, she did not believe anything she read online.
She only began to sense that something was not right when the rumors had spread around her.
She figured that Stella would not let rumors run wild without clarifying anything if it was not true.
However, Felicity still chose to believe in her best friend." New love? Wouldn't I have known about it if Stella was in a
new relationship? These people are just fabricating things!"
Vermont glanced at her. "I don't know if she's in a new relationship or not, but your best friend has been busy lately.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNot only did she go skydiving, but she also rode on
Marshall's bike on the same day. The paparazzi has taken so many photos of her having close interactions with
Marshall.
Would you treat a normal friend like that?"
Felicity immediately defended her best friend. "Mr. Moore was teaching Stella the correct posture while skydiving,
and he only held her hand because Stella tripped. It was just a coincidence!"
"Really?" Vermont took out his phone, scrolled to a picture of Marshall giving a bouquet of flowers to Stella, and
asked indifferently, "What about this? Why is she smiling at the flowers Marshall gave her? Was it because the
wrapper looked good?"
Felicity was caught off guard by that photo, and she softly said, "It could be."
Vermont continued without holding back. "Out of so many people, she just had to be with Marshall. I can't imagine
what Keegan would think if he found out."
"Stella is not like that. I'm sure she has her own reasons."
Vermont sneered. "What reasons could she have to hook up with Keegan's childhood friend when he's still missing?"
"What do you mean hook up? Do you even hear yourself?" Felicity said angrily, "The kidnappers were going after
Keegan, but Stella jumped into the water with him without any hesitation. I'm sure that she misses Keegan more
than any of us."
Vermont replied, "This is exactly why I don't understand how she can be with Marshall after such a short time. We
wanted her to come out of the pain, but instead, she started a new relationship and turned her back on Keegan. If I
were
Keegan, I would jump out of the river to stop them from dating even though I'm dead!"
Felicity threw a pillow at him right after he said that. "You're so heartless! Your values are all wrong! When you
wanted to hire Leighton but didn't want to spend a lot of money, wasn't it Stella who convinced him to take the job
for you? With how popular she is right now, she can easily partner up with any other jewelry store. She's only
helping you because of me."
"Those are two different things!"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"No, they're not! You're just biased. Do you think Stella is any less sad than you with what happened to Keegan?
Have you thought about her feelings and not just your own? She
watched Keegan get hurt, humiliated, and die with her own eyes. The only reason why she didn't go mad is because
she's strong enough to hold herself up!”
Vermont got a little angry. "Is being strong an excuse to have a new boyfriend?"
Felicity was exasperated. "Would you prefer her to cry and mourn for Keegan every day, then? I'll tell you what.
That's impossible! When Ms. Spade got into that accident, she managed to make sure that Ms. Spade got the
proper treatment despite the pressure from Albert. Stella is someone who'd never stop trying!
"She did not cheat on Keegan, and I'm not going to believe in any of these rumors!"
Felicity stood up and went back to the bedroom after she said that.
Vermont was irritated. 'Stella, Stella, Stella! Is that all she ever thinks about? Stella could've easily cleared up the
rumors with a public statement, but she didn't. Am I wrong for standing up for my best friend?'
As he thought to himself, the master bedroom's door was opened. Then, he saw Felicity coming out with a suitcase
while wearing a jacket.
Vermont paused. Then, he jumped up from the couch, stood in her way, and asked, "Where are you going?"
