Chapter 1463
Leighton caught Noah right in the act. He immediately grabbed Noah, who was half naked, and woke the whole family out toclarify himself.
However, Noah started crying and said that he had only secretly gone to sleep with his brother because he wanted to get closerto Leighton, but he feared that Leighton might not like him.
The adults reacted very differently to a teenager and a child wetting their bed.And, Noah always knew the right time to cry. So, not only was he not punished, but he was also comforted.
After that, Leighton realized that his little brother was not as innocent as he might appear, and he was a person filled with evilideas.
Noah was not afraid of Leighton at all. I'll snitch on you if you don't take me!"Leighton felt a headache coming on. "I'm not very close to her. So, it’s not likely that she'll take a picture with you even if you go."Noah replied, "All you have to do is take me there, and I'll have my own ways to get a picture with her."
Leighton thought about the "malicious" woman, glanced at his "annoying" little brother, and thought to himself, ‘I don't have aproblem letting him experience the harsh reality of this world.’
So, he said, "Think about your own excuse to mom and dad. I'll get someone to take you there tomorrow."Thank you, brother." Noah instantly smiled.Leighton scoffed lightly. Noah would only seem a bit like a child when he called him "brother."
Stella took off her high heels right after she got in the car. Then, she leaned back in her seat and said in a low voice, "I'mexhausted. This is even more tiring than the wedding."
Keegan fastened her seat belt for her and said, "You won't have to do anything when we get married. All | need is for you toshow up."
"That's not going to work." Stella glanced at him. "What about receiving the wedding gifts? | want to experience the feeling of myhands going sore from opening all the gifts."
Keegan chuckled softly. "Didn't you experience it last time?"He felt like slapping himself after he said that.
Keegan was not even there during their wedding night, and Stella had almost fallen into Jackson's trap. She had no chance to dothat at all.
Keegan pursed his lips and was about to say something. But, without mentioning anything about the incident, Stella said, "Mostof the cash that we received during our wedding was taken by your mother. | only received those that were personally given tome by my friends, so | haven't really experienced it."
Keegan did not care a lot about the gifts and money, so he was not bothered about who ended up having them. Stella had justmarried into his family, and he figured that it would be right for them to be so calculative.
Keegan sent all the wedding gifts that his friends had given him to Royalpark Villa, but most of the cash went into Dahlia'spocket.
In the end, the notebook that recorded everything they received on their wedding night ended up with Stella. After all, theyneeded it for reference when returning the favor next time.novelbin
Stella had some free time and decided to calculate the total amount of cash they received. It turned out that it was close to eightdigits, yet Dahlia had not given them a single penny.
Keegan frowned. "She didn't give you any money?"
‘What... Was she supposed to?" Stella was puzzled.
Keegan's face darkened and said after a long pause, "Grandma told her to give us the notebook because she wanted you tokeep all the cash we received at our wedding. We're considered a standalone family after getting married and should bring ourown gifts when attending other people's celebrations in the future. The notebook and cash were meant to make our job easierwhen giving gifts to others."
Not only that, but Cordelia had also instructed Dahlia to deposit all the cash into a bank card with an additional five million in it asa blessing to the newlyweds.
Cordelia had already personally given Stella some money, but that five million was given in Dahlia's name to tell her that thefamily regarded Stella as one of their own. Cordelia wished that Stella could settle down and feel comfortable in this family, soshe had to build a good relationship between Stella and Dahlia, the mother-in-law.
However, nobody would expect that Dahlia would take all the money for herself.Not only did she take the five million, but she also took all the cash that was meant forthem.
To be honest, five million was barely anything to the Kane family, so no one really paid much attention to it. After all, it was meantfor the new member of the family. No one could have anticipated that someone would take this money away.
But, as it turned out, someone really did.
