Chapter 1073
’Really?" Stella was happy to hear Marshall’s comment. It was the highest praise an actor could receive. "You're not just sayingthat, are you?"
"I'm not. You'll see it when you come to the law firm next time. Everyone here is a fan of you," Marshall chuckled.‘Including you?" Stella teased.
"I'm the leader of the fan club,” Marshall joked back. "| asked them if they would rather watch The Palace or do overtime, andthey clearly love the show since they chose the prior.’
Stella immediately laughed. As she was about to continue with the conversation, a hand quietly wrapped around her waist. Then,she could feel hot, wet lips kissing her neck. Stella was startled and let out a yelp.
Marshall paused and asked, "Stella? What's wrong?"Stella pushed Keegan's head, trying to stop him from causing trouble.However, the man did not stop. He smothered his lips all over Stella and even slipped his hand under her shirt.
Stella's goose bumps rose as the hot palm touched the skin around her waist. She blushed and held Keegan's hand down,glaring at him. She whispered, "Are you insane?"
Instead of restraining himself, Keegan kissed her all the way from her neck to her collarbone, biting her with each kiss. Stellacould not stand the stimulation, and her breathing became quicker.
At that moment, Marshall's voice sounded again. "Stella? Why aren't you saying anything?"
"Ah. N-Nothing... It's just... Something came up." Stella sounded a little raspy. She did not dare to say anything more. "Talk toyou later," she said and hung up the phone.
As soon as the call ended, Stella grabbed Keegan by the hair and gritted her teeth as she said, "Are you crazy? What if Mr.Moore heard that?”
"So what if he did? It's not like he's never seen people do it," Keegan grunted.
Stella wanted to get mad at the man, but she could tell that he was jealous by the tone of his voice. Suddenly, she could not helpbut laugh.
"Why are you laughing?" Keegan frowned.
Stella tried to hold herself back and said, "| pretended to be Marshall's girlfriend as a favor. | even told you about it right awaywhen | saw you. Why are you still being such a sourpuss? You were never this jealous before."
‘| was always jealous... | just didn't show it because you never understood why | was upset. Instead, you'd say that I'm bad-tempered,’ thought Keegan."Don't you think you're being too submissive to Marshall? You always agree to anything he asks, yet you won't even change in
front of me when | want you to!" Keegan said unhappily.
Stella's mouth twitched at the sound of that. "Do you hear yourself right now? How can you compare those incidents whenthey're not the same thing?"
"To me, they are. You reject me whenever you feel like it. But, when it comes to Marshall, you suddenly become Mother Teresa."
Stella could tell that Keegan was angry and softened her tone. "What makes you say that? | didn't reject Marshall's requestbecause he had never really asked for my help before. On the contrary, he always helped me. You know how | don't like owingpeople favors. | did find it odd when he asked for my help, but it was a way for me to pay him back. That was why | did it.”
When Keegan thought about it, Stella's explanation made sense. However, he did not want to act rationally. He had been holdingon to this grudge for a long time, and at that moment, everything poured out. "You always smile when you talk to him. Even yourvoice sounds softer compared to how you speak to me!"
"When have | ever done that?""You're doing it right now! See, you're yelling at me. Have you ever yelled at him?" Keegan snorted.
Stella was speechless when she heard that. She then turned her tone around and said in a high-pitched voice, "I wasn't yeHing-Do you want me to talk to you like this instead-?"novelbin
