Chapter 1051

The housekeeper had already cleaned up the room, and Stella wanted to just quickly send her oldclassmate to the room.

However, her old classmate seemed very interested in her house and insisted on meeting Stella’shusband to thank him in person.

At that time, the huge wedding photo in the living room had not been installed yet and there were notany photos of Stella and Keegan on the first floor.

Her old classmate kept speaking in a regretful tone saying that Stella should not have gotten marriedso early because of how well she did at school. She even said that marriage should not be built on onlymaterialistic things, but common values. She also mentioned that a huge gap in age difference wouldoften lead to a problematic relationship.

Stella listened to her words and realized that she was implying that she had married an older man forhis money.

Stella immediately got a little mad at her. However, she did not confront her about it out of politeness.Instead, she began to treat her old classmate a lot colder.

Stella’s old classmate probably realized that she had spoken too much and stopped talking about thattopic.

Stella would only think that her old classmate was bad at socializing if everything ended there.

However, when her old classmate saw Keegan returning home and found out that he was Stella’shusband, her attitude took a big turn.

She began calling Keegan by his first name and would even compliment him when he drank somewater by saying, “Keegan, you look so attractive when you’re drinking water.”

Stella’s old classmate was petite and had a decent-looking face, but it was nothing too outstanding.However, she was very popular among the guys during their school days. She never had to lift a fingerwhenever there was an event that required the students to move their chairs and tables because therewould always be guys who were not even her boyfriend offering to help.

Even Stella, who was the prettiest girl in school, had never experienced a privilege like that.novelbin

Stella used to tell Felicity about this and wondered why she could not get the guys’ attention like her oldclassmate. She just could not figure out why none of them would offer to help her.

Felicity’s response hit the nail on the bed. “Well, it’s because she knows how to act cute. All men arethe same. They’ll lose control whenever they heard a woman acting all sweet.

“And you? Although you have a pretty face, you speak like a man. When guys asked you for yournumber, you’d tell them that you don’t have a subscription plan; when they ask if you’re hungry, you’dtell them you just ate; when they asked if you’re drunk, you’d say that you can barely taste the alcohol.No one dares to flirt with a girl like you. They just don’t know how to deal with you.”

Stella did not agree with her at first. However, as time passed, she began to realize that the girls whogot the most attention from the guys were not necessarily the prettiest, but rather those who wereoutgoing and would treat guys as their brothers if they were not the type who loved to act cute.

Her old classmate was one of them.

When Stella heard her calling Keegan by his name, she got goosebumps all over. She shifted her gazeto Keegan and did not see any special reaction on his face.

Stella was actually kind of unhappy with how her old classmate addressed her husband. However, herold classmate claimed that she did that on purpose to test her husband as soon as Keegan walkedaway.

Stella was confused.

Her old classmate explained in a serious tone, “Rich men are usually unfaithful, especially those whoare handsome. Most of them can’t resist temptations at all. Did you notice how he did not reject it whenI called his name so suggestively in front of you? It means that he still enjoys being admired by otherwomen. You better watch out.”

Stella felt very uncomfortable after hearing what she said.

On one hand, she thought that how could one make a correct judgment about a person in just a fewminutes? On the other hand, she was bothered by the fact that Keegan did not reject her old classmateas if he really did enjoy another woman talking to him like that.

In those days, the caretaker took leave due to personal matters, so Stella spent most of her time at thehospital. She would leave home early in the morning and come back late at night, barely having thechance to speak to anyone in the house.

Her old classmate said that she would only stay for a few days. However, it had been a week, and sheshowed no intention of wanting to leave at all.

Stella felt as though it was very inconvenient for an outsider to stay in her home. Sometimes when shewanted to get intimate with Keegan, her old classmate would knock on their door to say that the door ofher room toilet was jammed or ask her how to use the hair dryer, which ruined their mood.

Their moods were completely dampened, and Keegan even moved to the study room to sleep.

When Stella asked her about her job search, she would always say that there were no suitable jobs forher. Stella recommended her to a few jobs, but she either complained about the working hours beingtoo long, the low salary, or the need to work outside of Rivera.

Stella originally wanted to help her old classmate out of goodwill but ended up bringing trouble uponherself.

Just as Sella was contemplating how she could tactfully ask her to move out, she woke up the nextmorning, and her old classmate was nowhere to be found
