Chapter 1175
“Is it really that necessary to have a clean-cut relationship with me?”
As soon as Keegan said that, everyone looked over. They were shocked to see the divorced couple atAlbert and Hylda’s wedding, not to mention the ex-husband trying to give wedding gifts on both of theirbehalfs.
Stella glanced at Keegan indifferently and said, “Mr. Kane, our relationship ended when we signed thedivorce papers. It’s better if we refrain from doing something controversial.” She paused for a while andcontinued,” Mr. Jewell raised me. It’s only right that I give him a wedding present in return. Why are yougiving them a gift, Mr. Kane?”
‘And, a generous one at that!’ she thought.
Keegan pressed his lips together and replied, “I knew you were going to be here, so I came to show alittle token of my appreciation too.”
The crowd went wild. They were wondering why Keegan would show up at Albert’s wedding. ‘It turnsout it’s because of Stella!’
Everyone had heard that Albert and Stella were in contact again. No one was surprised since Albertraised her despite her not being his flesh and blood.
The crowd found it strange that Keegan showed up at the wedding. But now, they finally understoodwhat was going on after hearing his words. They did not expect that he and Stella would be theretogether since they had a messy divorce nearly six months ago.
Moreover, Keegan’s eyes had been glued to Stella from the moment he appeared. His gaze showed ahint of unrequited love, which was different than his usual cold and indifferent look. Outsiders thought
that there was no need for Keegan to be upset over his ex-wife with the status and power he heldunless there was something more to it.
The people turned to Stella and saw that she had completely ignored Keegan’s remark. She looked athim in disdain and said, “I think it’ll be better to put your time and energy into the future Mrs. Kane.There’s no need for you to express your feelings here.”
After she said that, Stella tossed Keegan’s wedding gift back to him and handed her present to thereceptionist. “Stella Jewell,” she said to the receptionist.novelbin
Keegan looked at her with a hurt gaze for a long time before he said, “Put my name on there as well.It’s from the both of us.”
Stella could not believe what he was doing. “Did I say I’d let you do that?”
“Can’t I at least have some sort of connection to you? I promise I’ll pay it back after the wedding.”
Stella gave Keegan a cold glance and said, “You’re insane.” She then turned around and walked away.She was afraid that she would break character if they kept up the act.
Everyone at the wedding venue was flabbergasted, as they watched things unfold. ‘Is Keegan still notover her? No wonder he didn’t like any of the wealthy young women who showed interest in him. Hestill has his heart set on Stella,’ they thought.
Stella grabbed herself a glass of mango juice and walked to Vermont. Vermont shot her a quick glanceand said, “You two are quite the actors.”
“Where’s Felicity?” Stella sipped on her juice and asked.
“She left her phone in the car. She’s going back to get it.”
Stella paused and said, “What kind of boyfriend are you?”
Vermont did not know how to respond. He wanted to go grab Felicity’s phone, but she did not allow himto do that since he was “sick”. So, he lied. “I fell from a tree and injured my back when I visited herhometown with her that day. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have let her go on her own. I’m not Keegan, youknow; bringing you around when you’ve already suffered an injury.”
