Stella consulted her with an earnest expression. “But, what if the man made a principle-based mistake? For example, he has anaffair and gets some woman pregnant, and the woman comes to you and challenges you. How do you think this situation shouldbe handled?”
After Stella spoke, Mrs. Chapman's expression changed. Meanwhile, Bella also became pale and looked panicked.Mrs. Chapman pursed her lips and asked with a stiff expression, “Did you experience such a thing, Mrs. Kane?”Her words were incredibly blunt. Obviously, this was also something the crowd was very
curious about.
Stella steadily took a sip of her juice. Finally, she spoke, “It’s a friend of mine. Her husband had an affair, and that woman gotpregnant. However, my friend did not want to get divorced, so she went to find that woman and negotiated with her. She wantedthe woman to abort the baby and leave her husband. The woman agreed and asked for one million dollars. She said she'll abortthe child once she got the money. However, my friend is a stay-at-home mother and doesn’t have much savings, so sheborrowed money from me a few days ago. I’m not sure if | should lend her the money.”
She continued, “Personally, | disagree with her approach. Nevertheless, | don’t seem to have a better solution. Since you’reknowledgeable and experienced, I’m asking you in my friend’s stead. How do you think it should be handled if you were facedwith this situation?”
Hearing Stella finish her sentence, Bella breathed a sigh of relief. However, Mrs. Chapman's expression had completelydarkened.
“| don’t have experience in these things. You've asked the wrong person, Mrs. Kane,” she said stiffly.
Stella hurriedly said, “Don’t be angry, Mrs. Chapman. I’m not saying that Mr. Chapman did anything. | just thought you’ve beenthrough this and should have a good way to handle such things.”
Mrs. Chapman was so furious that she had turned red. However, she could not act on her anger.
She gritted her teeth and said icily, “I’m not angry. It’s just I’m genuinely unable to answer your question. Excuse me, ladies. |need to go to the washroom.”
Stella watched as Mrs. Chapman hastily left.She smiled and loudly said, “Let’s play Mah—Jongg when you're free, Mrs. Chapman.”Mrs. Chapman froze momentarily. Then, she quickened her pace and left in her leather flats.
Stella narrowed her eyes, and the corner of her lips unnoticeably twisted upward. While she was gloating, Keegan’s voicesounded behind her. “What did you talk about that made you this happy?”
Stella’s smile instantly faltered.“Nothing,” she said coolly.

Keegan then glanced at Stella.
‘| didn’t know she has a married friend whose husband had an affair?’ he thought.“You lent that friend money?”
‘Lent, my ass! It was a story | made up on the spot!‘ she thought.
Stella glanced at him and said, “I wanted to, but | didn’t have enough.”
“| can pay you in advance.”
‘Is he that kind?‘ she wondered.
“Under what condition?”
She wanted to know what Keegan was thinking.
Keegan lowered his gaze and said in a husky voice, “Give me a kiss.”
