Female Novel
Chapter 961
The bride said in a low voice, ‘Fortunately, I stopped you from talking to Yara about it that time. Canyou imagine how awkward things would be?”
Duncan smiled. “How wise of my wife.”
The bride hit him, and Duncan stopped being cheeky. He chatted with everyone for a while beforegoing to entertain other guests.
Then, somebody came over and said a few words to Marshall as soon as they left. Marshall turned toStella and said, “They need my help with something. I’ll be back in a while.”
Stella nodded and touched her face confusedly.
She wondered if the reason why so many people looked at her strangely was due to the makeup onher face.
However, that did not stop her from teasing Keegan.
Everyone started eating after the toast. Keegan had been on the road for the whole day, and he wasstarving.
So, he did not speak much when others at the table were chatting. Instead, he picked up his utensilsand dug in.
He was about to pick up a piece of spare rib with his fork, but he saw another fork going for the samepiece.
Keegan frowned.
On the other hand, Stella pretended to be surprised. “I’m sorry.”
Keegan did not say anything. He moved his fork away and went for another dish.
Stella put that piece of spare rib on Keegan’s plate. “You can have it first.”
Keegan stared at her fork. He brought his brows so close together that they could have squeezed a flyto death.
‘What is wrong with this person? Did she just put a piece of spare rib on my plate with her own fork?’
Keegan did not touch the spare rib. Instead, he ate a different dish.
Felicity glared at Stella and thought to herself, ‘Where did this bitch come from? How dare she seducemy bestie’s man? Does she have a death wish? I
She wanted to inform Stella about it. But, she realized that she had left her phone outside when shesearched for it in her bag.novelbin
So, she could only pout and glower at Stella with an expression that seemed to say, “You better stopbeing so flirty.”
Vermont’s gaze wandered between the two of them as a playful smile appeared on his face.
‘This woman is something else. She came with Marshall, yet she dared to flirt with another man in frontof everyone. Marshall has always been smart, but he made a mistake this time.’
Most women would have backed up if they kept getting pushed away like this.
However, this woman did not.
Stella tried to initiate another conversation after Keegan ignored her. “Mr. Kane, you’re such anoutstanding man. I simply can’t believe that you’re still single at this age. How surprising.”
Vermont almost spurted out the water in his mouth.
‘At this age…
‘Stella is the only person who dares to make fun of Keegan like this. Is this woman crazy? Does shereally think Keegan is a gentleman?’
Keegan swept his gaze across her. “How old are you?”
“Twenty-five,” Stella answered.
Keegan said flatly, “You’re still not married at this age. Can’t you find a man who wants you? Did youchoose a man who’s five years older than you because you can’t attract men your age?”
Stella was speechless.
Vermont put on an “I knew it” face.
‘He’s the last person you’d want to mess with.’
Stella suddenly realized that Keegan was actually holding himself back when he would mock her. Shewas impressed by how mean he could be when talking to a person of the opposite sex other than her.
She had completely forgotten that Keegan only acted so ungentlemanly because she was the one whoprovoked and annoyed him. Even though Keegan could be a very sarcastic person, he would notintentionally embarrass other people.
“Mr. Kane, you’re overthinking. I just like men who are a little more mature since older men tend to bebetter at taking care of their partners. By the way, do you prefer your partner to be a wild kitten or avery obedient one?”
Keegan paused. “Even though I don’t discriminate against others who have strange sexualorientations, I prefer to be with a human myself.”
