Chapter 248

There was a photograph of the two on Keegan’s desk.

In the photograph, Keegan wore a suit as he sat in a chair, while Stella stood beside him in a red dress.

The man had an icy expression, while the woman had an alluring smile.

It was taken during the break time of their wedding photo shoot back then. The photographer thoughtthe two made a beautiful scene, so he took a photo of them doing these poses.

The finished product looked good. It was also Stella’s favorite photo. This photo was also the hugewedding photo framed on the wall of their living room.

Stella even deliberately developed a smaller copy and had it framed into a photo frame. Then, she sentit to Keegan’s office. After Aldor signed the parcel, he placed the photo on Keegan’s desk.

What Stella was currently drawing was that photo of them.

However, Stella drew herself beautifully, while the place Keegan stood had a dog. Besides that, Stellahad a dog leash in her hand.

“What’re you drawing?” the man’s icy voice sounded above her head.

Stella replied in a serious voice, “A self-portrait. Does it look alike?”

Keegan gritted his teeth, “And the dog?”

Stella looked away a little guiltily, “I drew it on a whim. Since you don’t allow me to have a pet. dog,you’re not even allowing me to draw one?”

‘Stella had been to drawing classes before. Since Rainee had always been very attentive to hereducation, Stella had attended various classes in her childhood, such as drawing, dancing, piano, andflute. She had even gone to harp classes for two years. While she did not last long in her classes, shehas great talent. She’s considered a jack of all trades, a master of none. For instance, professionalsmay find her current drawing passable at most, but an average person would find it incrediblypicturesque. The dog in the drawing, in particular, has a look that. completely resembles me! Howcould I possibly believe her bullshit?!’ he thought.

Marshall walked over when he saw the two “discussing” Stella’s drawing. He glanced at it and blurted,“Why does the dog look so much like Keegan?”

“Does it?” Stella denied it. “I don’t think it does. The dog isn’t as good-looking as Mr. Kane.”

Keegan was speechless.

Marshall noticed the odd atmosphere between the two, so he chuckled and said, “This is a pretty gooddrawing.”

Stella smiled with her eyes, “See? Even Mr. Moore says it’s good. Do you want to frame it? Thisdrawing will be worth a lot of money if my worth multiplies someday.”

She said as she signed her name and the bottom right corner of the drawing.novelbin

“One and only.”

Keegan twitched the corner of his lips.

“I’m afraid I won’t be able to see that day in my lifetime,” he said.

Stella cursed him internally.

‘Bad-mouthed bastard,’ she thought.

Then, she turned to Marshall, “Mr. Moore, are you two done talking?”

Marshall nodded.

“Then have lunch with me. I…” Stella paused momentarily and continued, “My husband’s treat.”

Keegan was at a loss for words. Since Stella had already said so, he obviously could not refuse. Justas the three walked out of the office, they bumped into Sophia.

She was holding a fruit platter and heading in their direction. When she saw them, she froze andimmediately smiled, “Stella, Mr. Kane, Mr. Moore. Are you all leaving?”

Stella sized her up.

‘Just now, when Sophia got shoved by Maya downstairs, her knees smashed onto the ground. Herinjury must be pretty serious, but she can still smile and bring us a fruit platter. I’ve reallyunderestimated my little sister,’ she thought.

Marshall had never met Sophia, so he asked, “And this is…”

”

Before Stella could speak, Sophia introduced herself in her stead, “Hello, Mr. Moore. My name’sSophia. We met at the jewelry exhibition two days ago, but you probably don’t remember me. Mr. Kaneis my brother-in-law, and Stella is my sister. I’m also classmates with Aurora, and I often hear hermention you.”

Marshall nodded and grunted. However, he did not answer, perhaps because he was not familiar withSophia.

Sophia felt a little awkward. Then she said, “Keegan, this fruit platter is freshly cut. I’ll pack it up, andthen you guys can eat it on the way. Mr. Hart said you didn’t have anything for breakfast.”

Stella raised an eyebrow.

Suddenly, she asked, “Sophia, what’s your work position in the company?”

Sophia could not compute her words and answered out of reflex, “Operations Assistant.”

“If you didn’t say so, I would’ve thought you were a tea lady,” Stella said indifferently. She continued,“Dad called me yesterday. He told me to tell my husband to take care of you. If you like being a tealady, why don’t I ask him to transfer you to the pantry?”

Sophia twitched the corner of her lips and forced a smile, “Stella, I was just helping someone bringthese over since it was on the way.”

‘Does she think I don’t know which floor the company’s operations department is on? At least your liebelievable! Albert is very attentive to her. He put aside his pride and asked me for a favor for the sakeof Sophia’s job. It’s a shame she’s a disappointment,’ Stella thought. However, Stella was not botheredto expose her lie, so she said coolly, “Dad is worried sick

because of your job. So put more effort into your job, and don’t let his good intentions go to

waste.”

Sophia clenched her fists as her expression changed. Finally, then, she muttered, “I understand,Stella.”

After exiting the company building and getting into the car, Marshall said, “Your sister doesn’t look quitelike you.”

“She’s not my biological sister,” Stella answered calmly. “My parents adopted her.”

Marshall did not ask any more questions.

Stella asked, “Do you think I speak to her in a mean tone?”

Meanwhile, Keegan seemed to have found an opportunity to deride her finally. He glanced at her andsaid icily, “Aren’t you always mean?”

Stella was speechless.

‘Bastard! I’m not asking him, so why did he fucking cut in?!’ she thought.

Marshall laughed and thought for a while.

“If some person appears in my life out of nowhere and takes away half of my parent’s love and thethings that should’ve belonged to me, I probably wouldn’t be able to be magnanimous either. However,I wouldn’t make it as obvious as you did, it could easily lead to others criticizing me.

‘He’s a pro. I suffered many losses from Sophia before I finally figured this out, but Marshall caught onimmediately. People like Sophia are the best at pretending to be weak. However, I made my disliketoward Sophia way too obvious, so Albert would always think that I was bullying Sophia. Every time wefight, Sophia’s always the one who gains benefits no matter what I say. It’s not always good to beblindly aggressive, sometimes, there’s the need to play little mind games,’ thought Stella.

Stella modestly asked Marshall for advice.

The two discussed away as if they were the only ones there. Meanwhile, Aldor watched as his boss’sexpression gradually darkened.

“This is for the sake of the Kane family’s harmony and for the sake of me working lesser overtime,thought Aldor.

He coughed and interrupted their conversation, “Mr. Moore, what would you like to eat?”
