Chapter 2138
Chapter 2138Stella secretly took note of what Grace said and promptly updated her customer file.
Grace insisted on paying for ‘Dream Weaver.’ Stella could not care less about what others might say about her, but Grace wouldnever let anyone think she had changed her mind about canceling her membership because of a perfume bottle.
As they walked out of the office, Joe looked back multiple times.Sensing his gaze, Stella followed it to a diffuser bottle on the desk behind her.She remembered the things Joe said that helped her, even though he might not have meant to.
So, she grabbed that diffuser bottle, walked up to Joe, and said, "This diffuser helps one focus. Mr. Esper, if you don't mind, youcan put this in your study, and it'll enhance your reading productivity."
Grace chimed in, "My son doesn't like diff-"
Before she could finish speaking, Joe took the bottle from Stella and said with flushed ears, "Thank you, Ms. Hall."Grace was taken aback.
Joe gripped his phone, wanting to ask for Stella's number, but he felt shy every time he looked into her eyes.
Tm her biggest fan! Why am | acting like a coward? | can't even bring myself to ask for an autograph!" Joe scolded himselfinwardly.
After Stella sent them off, Joe still could not manage to start a proper conversation with her.novelbin
He held the diffuser bottle and belatedly remembered to take a photo of it. After that, he sent it to "Stella's Ex-Husband" with atext that said: [Stella gave this to me!]
After a few seconds, Keegan replied with his marriage photo with Stella: [ She came to my office and gave me this.]
Joe tapped it open, and his gaze widened in shock. He replied: [Damn, you're so good at photoshopping! This looks so real. |can't even tell that it's fake. Can you do a similar one for me?"]
He then sent a few handsome photos of himself to Keegan and texted: [I'll pay you a thousand for each edit. Do as many as youcan!]
Keegan's eyelid twitched as he typed: [No.]No matter how many times Joe begged him, Keegan only replied with one word-No.
Realizing that there was no way Keegan would help him with that, he went back to their first deal: [Then give me Stella's phonenumber.]
Keegan asked: [Why didn't you ask her directly when you were at Caline just now?]
Joe replied with a shy emoji: [I was shy.]
Keegan was speechless.
[How could someone so shameless like you ever be shy?]
Keegan only knew Joe in an online game, yet Joe wanted to give him ingame skins, be sworn brothers with him, and even meethim in person. He just could not understand how a person like him would be shy.
Joe replied: [That's not the same. Can you stay calm when you finally get to meet your idol? It's already good enough that I canspeak a complete sentence. | went with my friend to his idol's concert last time, and the idol randomly chose him to sing onstage.
[My friend cried the whole time while singing and even got his snot on the idol's shirt. He's probably banned from the idol'sconcerts now.]
Keegan ignored him.
After typing such a long reply and not getting any response from Keegan, Joe wanted to call him. However, he suddenly receivedStella's contact number from Keegan.
Joe got excited and immediately saved the number to his phone, with a remark saying, "Ms. Hall, I'd like to discuss a filmingopportunity with you. Please respond.”
Meanwhile, Keegan picked up another phone and saved Joe's number.
Joe did not trust Keegan entirely, fearing that he might fool him with a fake number. So, he initiated a large sum transfer to verifythe recipient's name. Sure enough, the result showed that the recipient's last name was Kane.
He immediately took a screenshot of it and sent it to Keegan: [Do you think I'm stupid?]
