Keegan quickly followed, but he was still one step behind as Stella had already gone up the elevator.
Keegan ran up the stairs and knocked on the door for a long time, but Stella did not answer.
Vermont watched from the side and said, "Give it up.Women hate it when people mention theirweight.She needs to take a night to calm her anger."
Keegan glared at him and said snappily, "Why do you have the nerve to speak?"
Vermont shrugged.
"I went easy on you.What about the times when you showed off the love-packed lunch boxes your wifeprepared for you or the new clothes she bought for you? You're finally a bachelor like me.It'll feel unfairif you get her back too quickly."
Keegan's expression was dark.
'What kind of shit have I been friends with?! Stella took a shower and changed out of her wet clothesafter getting back to her apartment.When she finished her shower, she peeked into Felicity's room andsaw her sleeping.She then contacted the staff at The Emperor to collect the cutlery tomorrow since therain was too heavy.But after calling for a while, no one answered the phone.
So she messaged them.
The doorbell rang when she was drying her hair, ready to sleep.
Stella thought it was the staff who wanted to collect the cutlery, so she went out to answer the door.Herexpression was frozen when she opened the door and found Dahlia outside.
Dahlia was not alone.
There was a middle-aged man who looked like her, standing beside her.It was Dahlia's brother andKeegan's uncle, Blake.
Dahlia looked a little pale but was still dressed decently.
The rain was pouring outside, but there was not a single drop of rain on her body.
Even her hairdo was untouched.
Stella stared at them for a moment and raised her hand to shut the door.
Dahlia seemed to predict her actions as she immediately pushed the door open.
Stella staggered backward after being knocked back by the door.
She had a cold expression and asked, "What are you doing?"
Dahlia's eyes wandered around the luxurious decor of the house and raised the corners of her mouth.
"Keegan bought the house for you, right? Well, he's rather generous to you."
Ever since Keegan started limiting her access to take money from the company, Dahlia could not makeends meet.She used to attend gatherings with the other wives.Her accessories and clothes were allfrom the latest season.
With the Kane family's reputation, she was always the most influential person among the ladies.
However, her monthly income now was not enough for her to live her former lavish lifestyle.
Therefore, she rarely went for teatime with the other wives.
Dahlia was envious because while she was strapped for cash, this divorcee was living in a luxuriousmansion.
Stella wanted to reply that this house had nothing to do with Dahlia's son.
However, looking at Dahlia's unsatisfied expression, Stella felt spiteful and retorted, "Generous? Well,not really.This house was quite cheap.It's not even as expensive as the necklace he gave me."
Dahlia was at a loss for words.Her chest heaved violently and she had a dark expression as if she wasabout to vomit blood the next second.
Just as Stella thought Dahlia was about to pester and say something like "Get out from my son'shouse", Dahlia took a deep breath and said, "Since Keegan gave this house to you, let it be consideredas a little compensation from the Kane family."
Stella was confused.
'Did Dahlia wake up on the wrong side of the bed today?' There was nothing wrong with Dahliabecause her focus was on what she said next.
"I heard you're in the same production group with the actor, Leighton.Tell him we can satisfy anycompensation he wants if he drops the case.This situation started because of you.You were once asister-in-law to Aurora.If you help to get her out, I won't make a fuss about Keegan giving you a house."
Stella could not help but laugh out of irritation at Dahlia's shamelessness.
"Mrs.Kane, do you hear the nonsense you're saying?"
