Aldor spoke gently. "Ms. Saun, you didn't have to. It's my duty to take care of Mr. Kane since I'm on his payroll. I'm afraid that |don't deserve a gift for simply doing my job."
Jaylene said, "Consider it a gift from me on behalf of Keegan. It's just a small gift. Nothing too expensive."
Aurora could tell that Jaylene was trying to build rapport with Aldor. After some thought, she said, "Jaylene already said that it'sfor you, so just take it already. What? Your dignity is suddenly worth a fortune?"
Aldor was speechless."She's definitely just taking her anger out on me,’ he thought to himself.Aldor stopped refusing after what Aurora said, so he thanked Jaylene and took the gift bag.
"Ms. Saun, Mr. Kane is done with his meeting. I'll take you to him." "I'll come too," Aurora stood up and said. "| have something todiscuss with him. Jaylene, let's go."
Jaylene's expression turned somewhat unpleasant. ‘Guess | wasn't wrong about her being thoughtless, huh?’When they arrived at Keegan's office, Jaylene spotted the glass ball on the desk and felt delighted.
With Aurora around, there were plenty of things that she could not say to Keegan. So, she could only bring up some irrelevanttopics.
Aurora criticized Jaylene inwardly, ‘What a coward. Even though | failed to win Marshall's heart, | confessed my feelings openly. |honestly can't stand how hesitant and awkward Jaylene is around Keegan.
‘Well, if you're not going to say anything, | will."
Aurora cleared her throat and said, "Keegan, do you have any plans after work? Do you want to watch a movie with me andAldor?"
Jaylene was puzzled.
Keegan kept his head lowered, as he said nonchalantly, "What movie?" "Anything. Grandma wants me to go out with Aldor, and |just find it so awkward. Would you please join US? If he bullies me, you can deduct his salary," Aurora said coquettishly.novelbin
Keegan was annoyed by her whining. Then, he looked at Jaylene and said," Jaylene, why don't you go home if there's nothingelse.”
Jaylene snapped out of her thoughts and said, "Keegan, | want to watch a movie with you too. Why don't we all go together?“After all, Aurora is going on a date with Aldor, and it wouldn't be appropriate for you to sit right next to them.
"They might feel uncomfortable. We can buy the seat behind them and pretend to watch a movie to see how Aldor treats her."Aurora felt frustrated. 'l shouldn't have talked about watching a movie!’
Meanwhile, Stella had just gone to Cordelia's home to pick up Coco.
Coco was very happy. She chattered away like a little bird and asked Stella all kinds of questions.Stella answered all her questions patiently and could not help but think to herself, 'So, this is what it feels like to have a child.Teaching them about the world, explaining things to them, and watching them grow. How interesting.’
She had asked Felicity to come with her. However, Felicity's script was rejected, and she was asked to revise it immediately.Someone was interested in her script, but they were dissatisfied with certain parts of the plot, so her boss told her to changethem.
Felicity had no choice but to reject Stella and went home to revise her script.
It was not a holiday, so there were not many people in the cinema. After buying the tickets, Stella led Coco into the screening hallwith drinks and popcorn in her hands.
They were a little late, and the movie had already started in the darkened hall. So, they had to walk very carefully.
When they were approaching their seats, Stella accidentally tripped over someone's foot. She quickly grabbed the seat in front ofher, but she still lost her balance and sat down on the lap of the person behind her.
"Ouch," the person exclaimed and held onto her waist.
