Chapter 76
He was slightly keen on knowing about Keegan’s reaction after she fell off the horse before Keegan. On the other hand, Bella
was in a big conundrum. She had risen to popularity within these two years. Just as she debuted, the resources she obtained
were great
However, the piece of the pie was only so big. If Stella ate a bigger part, it was natural that she had taken other people’s share of
the pie The actresses who were in the same field and career path had a deep resentment toward her Yet, for some reason,
Bella’s crew was highly obnoxious. The popular searches they bought off were either used to demean others or to show
dominance
During the event of the massive pile-up previously, the incident about her monopolizing the popular searches to sensationalize
herself had already displeased everyone. In a few days, she caused another issue that riled the people mockery Even the fans
were unable to control the comments.
Bella was so furious that she wanted to curse at someone. Nevertheless, her manager advised her to turn off the comments and
slowly suppress the popular searches.
After Stella had released all her rage, she felt much more comfortable She saw that it was still early and lay on the sofa to take a
nap
That mutt of a man truly knows how to enjoy life. The couch is very soft, and the office temperature is just right. Even the air
seemed fresher than outside, she dreamily thought about that and fell asleep in no time
She seemed as though she was stepping on cotton in her dream, and her whole body felt light. It was indescribably comfortable.
However, the surroundings slowly turned hot. Her body was aching and limp, with not much strength left.
Suddenly, she felt a hand covering her forehead. It might be due to the surrounding temperature being too high, and it was
possible that her own body temperature was too high. Still, she felt that the hand was quite cool to the touch. It touched her skin
and gave her an immeasurable comfort that she could not help but rub herself against.
The hand paused for a bit. Its thumb caressed Stella’s boiling-hot lips and kneaded them hard. The rough gesture caused Stella
pain, so she furrowed her brows. She struggled to wake up from the pain, but the hand covered her eyes and blocked her line of
sight.
The next second, a worm thing touched her collarbone. A wave of masculine scent washed through her nerves. Stella was
horrified deep down. Yet, she could not open her eyes. She kept trying while the hand on her body got more and more
outrageous...
She was so anxious that she bit down hard on her lips. The stinging pain made her return to her senses. She immediately
opened her eyes and gave a kick. The kick flew out but did not hit anyone. Instead, the excessive force caused her to crash
down from the couch, and her chin hit the floor
Thankfully, a thick wool carpet was on top, so it was not that painful.
She opened her eyes, and in front of her was a pair of clean male leather shoes. The suit pants that were ironed straight were
hugging onto the man’s muscular calves. The pants of the legs were so clean that it was enough to show that the owner was a
perfectionist.
She paused for a bit, and her gaze moved upwards. Keegan was holding his phone and sitting on the couch beside her. He
looked at her condescendingly, then he spoke in a cold tone. “It’s an authentic leather couch flown here from Italy. In the few
years since it arrived at my office, it hasn’t been in contact with any moisture. Today, it has been ruined by your mouth”
Stella lifted her head and saw a small patch of moisture on the place she had put her head on. She instinctively pulled a tissue to
wipe it.
“By destroying the evidence, you could prove that it wasn’t you?” Keegan asked.
Stella was speechless. She glared at him, and she was embarrassed. “I didn’t do it on purpose!”
She stood up from the ground with gritted teeth. Then, she remembered something and lowered her head to give it a glance. The
zipper on the skirt had yet to be pulled open. Her whole body was considered tidy. but the caress from then clearly felt real.
Could it be that she merely dreamed it?
She looked at Keegan confusingly while the latter crossed his legs and toyed with his cell phone. He met her gaze, and it did not
show any sign of dodging, just like his usual self, cold and indifferent. As he proceeded to speak, it immediately dispelled any
illogical thoughts she had of him.
“The booking plus the airfare comes to a total of 3.7 million. You want to transfer or deduct it?” Keegan
said
