Chapter 1771

However, Stella figured that she could not just brush Jaylene off after she asked for her help openly.So, she glanced at Jaylene’s clothes and picked a simple, light green dress.

“What about this? It’s not too formal or too casual.”

Jaylene took it and said, “You have great taste. Trevor gave this to me for my birthday last yearbecause he knew I’m a fan of this designer’s clothes. He secretly noted my measurements and had itcustom-made without me knowing. I haven’t worn it much since I got it.”

Stella pursed her lips. She did not like hearing about what happened between Jaylene and Trevor orWenham back then.

It would make her think that if she had not been taken away all those years ago, she would be the onespending the past twenty-plus years with her father and brother.

Whenever Wenham looked at her childhood photos, he would sigh, wishing he could hug the young,adorable her.

Stella knew that Wenham still loved her as much as he did now. He just regretted not being thereduring every moment of her growth.

Stella also felt sad that Wenham was already so old when she finally returned to her family. He livedhalf of his life without her, and Stella did not know how many days he had

left to spend with her.

Whenever Stella thought about it, she would burn with hatred for the culprit who tore her family apartyears ago. 2

That was why she would feel so uncomfortable every time Jaylene talked about how Wenham orTrevor treated her back then.

She could not care less about the materialistic things Jaylene received from her father and brother; sheonly thought about the time she could have spent with them.Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join &Stay Updated For All Books Updates…

Stella did not want to stay in the dressing room any longer, so she said flatly, “I’m leaving if there’snothing else.”

Jaylene put down the dress, saying, “Stella, I’ve always thought that if Keegan didn’t exist, we would bevery good friends.”

Stella stopped walking, “I’d never be your friend whether Keegan exists or not.”

Then, she smiled and shrugged, saying, “After all, why would sisters want to be each other’s friends?”

Jaylene paused.

At this time, Stella had already turned around and walked away.

Just as she turned her back on Jaylene, the latter’s smile disappeared.

Stella knew that if she were not Wenham’s daughter, Jaylene would never bother looking at her, letalone be her

friend.

Although Stella had saved her life, Jaylene would always look at her condescendingly, thinking she wassuperior because of her family background. 2

Jaylene was the kind of person who would change her behavior depending on who she was with.

Vermont did not lie to Felicity. After they were done with the game, he introduced her to the scriptwriter.novelbin

The scriptwriter was even more impressive than Vermont described. Not only did his scripts wincountless awards, but he was also highly sought after in the industry. He had earned so much moneythat he opened a shop dedicated to murder mystery games for fun.

Vermont invited him to a meal, and Felicity had a great conversation with him. He gave her a lot ofinspiration, and she was delighted to learn from him.

She could not help but have a couple more drinks into the conversation. Then, she started feeling tipsy.

“Mr. Booker, why do award-winning arthouse films always add some sensual scenes? Can you tell mewhy? I really

don’t understand. The suspense film that came out earlier this year was so good, but why didn’t it winany award?”

Vermont’s eyelid twitched. He quickly replaced the alcohol in Felicity’s hand with a cup of tea andexplained, “She’s had too much to drink.”

Felicity glared at him, “What are you talking about? I’m perfectly sober!”

Vermont was speechless.
