Chapter 385
Felicity messaged Stella. [Is that mutt, Keegan, close with Doctor Steven?]
Stella replied, [I think so.]
[If you let that mutt, Keegan, help to ask around about Doctor Steven, I'll even let the both of you be ourwedding witness. ]
Stella would naturally help Felicity even if she did not ask her. Putting aside Corbin's familybackground, his attitude must be passable. When the crowd was done exchanging pleasantries, Stellawhispered questioningly at Keegan. "Are you acquainted with Doctor Steven?"
Keegan shot a glance at her. "I’m not."
Stella frowned. “Why did he talk to you if you aren't acquainted with him?"
Keegan said indifferently, "Many will take a shot to be acquainted with me. Do you think I would beacquainted with all of them?"
Stella choked at that reply. Keegan was not intentionally avoiding the topic. He was really not close withCorbin and had only seen Corbin during some dinner parties Vermont organized. It was only a hi-and-bye relationship, and Keegan was not privy to his background.
Stella's anger arose, still doubting he was hiding something from her.
Keegan was normally in the limelight in these settings. Within moments, he had already gathered acrowd. Stella, who was unable to enter the conversation, stood aside and thought of how she could pryinformation about Corbin.
Right at that moment, Stella found Marshall conversing with Corbin. The both of them seemed quiteclose to each other. Stella immediately brought a glass of wine and entered the conversation. "Mr.Moore, would you like some wine?"
Marshall turned his head and his gaze softened upon seeing Stella. He took it and warmly said, "Thankyou."
Stella went with the flow and walked in front of them. "Hello, Doctor Steven."
Corbin politely replied, "Hello, Mrs. Kane."
Marshall asked, "Do you two know each other?"
“Not really. I've brought a friend to Doctor Steven's place just that one time. To think that we'd meetagain here."
Corbin, who did not expect that Stella was Keegan's wife, replied, "This truly is a coincidence.”
Marshall soon began introducing Corbin to Stella. Corbin, being the only son, came from a well-to-dofamily. They knew each other but were not well -acquainted. It was only when Marshall went overseasto treat his illness that he became acquainted with
Corbin, who was doing an internship abroad at that time. Having finished the introductions, Marshalladded,” Corbin is Mr. Lewie's nephew."
Corbin replied with a smile, "I can't believe I still can’t get anyone to remember me without mentioningmy uncle."
"That's not true.” Stella courteously replied, “Doctor Steven is very impressive to be able to becomeassociate director at such a young age."novelbin
Corbin replied, "Does Mrs. Kane love opera?"
Stella replied, "I'm good. It's mostly my mother. She loves Mr. Lewie's work a lot. It was such a wastefor Mr. Lewie to stop singing.”
"Uncle pushed himself too hard when he was young and became ail as he aged. He stopped going onstage due to health reasons."
Marshall said, "I remember when Mr. Lewie was at the peak of his career, he could run more than tenshows per day and all of them are full-housed. Getting even a ticket wasn't easy. The amount of showhe ran should be in the five digits, right?”
Corbin smiled. "No. It's only a total of nine thousand, seven hundred and forty-three shows.”
Stella was astonished. "Nine thousand, seven hundred and forty-three..."
She pursued her mouth and her expression instantly turned serious. Swiftly, she placed the glass downand said, ' Please excuse me."
As soon as she finished speaking, she went to a corner and took out her phone, scrolling to the pictureof the cassettes with the numbers on them.
