Chapter 1465
Stella did not feel like wearing her high heels. So, Keegan, who was being a good boyfriend, carried Stella all the way back.
In the elevator, Stella wrapped her arms around his neck to show him the bangle on her wrist.
"Do you think this bangle is worth ten million?"
"It's probably more. The finishing on this piece is exceptional, and Marshall's aunt would never sell it for just ten million."
Stella was taken aback. "Did she buy this from Marshall's aunt?"
Keegan nodded. "I was there at the auction. Vermont also had his eyes on that piece of raw titanium. But he thought that the
price was too high, so he gave up on it. In the end, Marshall's aunt won the bid."
It turned out that the titanium purity was extremely high, and it was worth way more than the final bidding price. That made
Vermont regret not bidding for it very much.
Vermont just could not get his mind off it, and he kept asking Marshall about it in the group chat. However, Marshall went
overseas and had no idea what was happening. After about half a year, Marshall suddenly said in the group chat that the raw
titanium had been made into a bangle and a few other accessories. And he mentioned that the bangle was bought by the Saun
family.
So, Keegan figured that it was most probably the same bangle that Darcie had given to Stella.
Keegan paused. "You're not thinking of selling it, are you?"
Stella glanced at him. "Am I that desperate for money to you?"
Keegan dared not to expose her, as he thought inwardly,' Well, let's put it this way. If she could rent her husband out to make
money, she would immediately do it without a second thought!'
Stella touched the bangle. She had only met Darcie a few times, and she would always wear the same bangle. So, it was clear
that she loved it very much.
Stella thought for a moment before she said, "I have to wear it more often, especially in front of her. I've got to give her a taste of
her own medicine after she set me up at the hotel."
Keegan reminded himself about something and suddenly chuckled.
Stella looked at him and asked, "What's so funny?"
Keegan gazed back at her. "It looked very real when you were crying just now. I'm very impressed."
Stella snorted. "Even my dad was fooled. Saying that you're impressed is an understatement."
"Uncle Saun is biased. He would believe you anyway no matter how fake you cry," Keegan said.
"What about you?"
Keegan smiled and said, "I'm still rational enough to make my own judgment, even though I'm biased too."
Stella pretended to pinch his ear, but Keegan tilted his head and kissed her lips. "But I'm willing to play along."
Keegan was saying that even if he knew Stella was just pretending, he would still do anything to make things go her way.
His heartfelt words instantly stirred up Stella.
The elevator doors opened, and Stella suddenly hooked her arm around Keegan's neck to kiss him even harder.
Keegan was surprised. He set her down and wrapped his arm around her waist.
Both of them had been busy lately, and it had been a while since they got intimate with each other. At that moment, Stella was
not thinking about anything lewd. She was just happy to be there.
She finally got to reunite with her family, witness the culprit of her foster mother's accident be brought to justice, and receive so
many gifts that her hands felt sore.
Suddenly, she felt like her life was very fulfilling.
Keegan pinned her down against the door and ran his finger through his hair. Then, he held the back of her head and caressed
her.
Stella opened her eyes, intending to ask Keegan to open the door first. But, as soon as she did, she saw Vermont and Felicity
standing not far away.
The couple stared at them blankly and even took out their phones at the same time.
Stella was caught off guard.
She nudged Keegan.
Keegan had yet to sense the awkwardness in the air, and he said in a low voice, "Do you prefer a virgin or an experienced
person?"
