Female Novel
Chapter 946
Whenever Keegan was sick or detained for having conflicts with other people, Dahlia would alwayscome up with various reasons for not being there for him. The only time she would show any affectionto Keegan was when she needed money from him.
Stella could not resist talking to Keegan about it, but she decided that it was best not to say anything.Since her relationship with Keegan was unstable back then, she knew that it would seem like she wasdeliberately trying to make him hate his mother.
Stella did not expect Keegan to notice Dahlia’s behavior, especially since he had always kept it tohimself. She poked Keegan in between his eyebrows and said, “Are you saying your mom only likesyou for your money and not you as a person?”
Keegan closed his eyes and said softly after a while, ’She doesn’t like anyone. She doesn’t love me normy dad.”
Stella paused and half-jokingly said, “She treats your sister well though. The matching set of jewelryshe gifted her from Cartier is a thousand times more expensive than the Black Swan she got me.”
Keegan laughed when he heard that. Stella grabbed his face and asked,” What are you laughing at?”
“So, you wore the necklace I gifted you just to spite her?”
Stella froze momentarily and realized that he was talking about the time they went to Dahlia’s birthdayparty. Thinking about how funny Dahlia’s expression was at the party, Stella began to laugh too.
She then nudged the tip of Keegan’s nose and said, “You’re the one who chose to give me a necklaceon that particular day. You didn’t expect that to happen?”
Keegan chuckled and leaned into Stella’s ear as he whispered, “I did it on purpose.”
“You’re so childish,” Stella whispered back.
Keegan had a good laugh and said, “I don’t care if she doesn’t like me or mistreats me. What I do careabout is how she forced you away from me. I will never forgive her for that.’
Stella paused and stayed silent, patting him on the shoulder in response.novelbin
After a while, Keegan said, “Do you have any feelings for me at all?”
Stella returned to her senses. Then, with a helpless look, she thought, ‘Are we still not past this?’
“Just a little.’
Keegan found her answer to be perfunctory and frowned in dissatisfaction. “Can you elaborate on thatso I can try to increase it?”
Stella noticed that he was serious and teased, “I like how you splurge on me.’
Keegan was speechless. Stella stopped fooling with him when she saw his bitter expression of hatred.She then pulled him over and gave him a big kiss. “Would I be dating you if I didn’t like you, dummy?I’d just get a sugar daddy if I only wanted money.”
It was a rare confession from Stella, but Keegan only heard the second half. “How much money do youwant?”
Stella was at a loss for words. She threw a pillow at Keegan’s face and said, “Go to sleep.”
After a long day of tossing and turning, Keegan was finally willing to get off from Stella. However, hestill had his arms around her waist and refused to let her go. Stella had no choice but to stay there forthe night.
She thought of Aldor, waiting for her outside, and grabbed her phone to text him. [You can leave, Aldor.I’m staying here tonight.] [Alright,] Aldor replied. He tossed his phone on the couch and went to take ashower. He knew that it would turn out like this, so he just left.
