Chapter 104
She struggled for a moment before she answered it. However, she heard an automated female voice
reminding her to make her credit card repayment.
She hung on with an indifferent look on her face. She raised her phone as if she was going to throw her
phone away but stopped at the very last moment. Then, she switched off her phone and put it back into
her bag.
Marshall looked at her actions and somehow thought that she looked cute.
He walked over and draped his coat over her shoulder. “I’ll send you back.”
“Forget it. If Keegan told you to do this, tell him to pick up his own wife.”
Clearly, she was throwing a fit even though she said that she did not care.
She only sat there without leaving because she was waiting for Keegan to come back.
“It’s getting late. It’s not safe for you to be alone out here.”
Marshall said in a very subtle way, but Stella could understand that Keegan did not call him.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt‘He probably forgot that he left his own wife behind,‘ she thought to herself.
Then, she turned around and asked, “Can you send me to where you parked last time?”
Stella did not say another word after she got into the car.
She shut her eyes as if she was sleeping.
The car stopped. Marshall was about to wake her up a while later, but she opened her eyes. “Are we
here?”
“Yeah.”
Stella looked outside the window and gave the coat back to him. “Thanks.”
Then, she unbuckled her seatbelt and got off the car.
Suddenly, Marshall’s phone rang.
He looked down at his phone to check the caller’s I.D. and put it away.
He only told his chauffeur to drive away after Stella’s figure disappeared from his sight.
Keegan frowned and hung up as he looked at his unanswered call. He thought to himself for a moment
before calling his house’s phone.
Maya picked up the phone very quickly. “Hello, Mr. Kane?”
Keegan asked in a low voice, “Is Mrs. Kane back home?”
“Mrs. Kane? I thought she went to the banquet with you.‘
Keegan pursed his lips and continued after a while, “Give me a call when she comes back.”
Then, he hung up. After that, something popped into his head before he dialed Felicity’s
number.
He directly asked after the call was connected, “Did Stella go to your place?”
Felicity answered in an unpleasant tone as if his call woke her up from her sleep, “Mr. Kane, Stella is
your wife. How could you not know where she is? Why would you always ask an outsider the same
thing?”
“She’s not with you?”
“No! Come over and find out for yourself if you don’t believe me. Sue me for human trafficking if you
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmcould find her at my place!”
Keegan went silent for a while before he hung up.
Felicity heard her doorbell ringing right after the call was disconnected.
She opened the door and found out that it was Stella.
Then, she had a wild thought. ‘Keegan won’t really sue me for human trafficking, right?‘
Stella came to take her clothes back. She did not get to bring a lot of her belongings back when Keegan
came to pick her up.
However, it was a weird time for her to get her stuff back. Besides, the fact that Keegan called Felicity
made her feel like something strange was going on.
She only asked softly after Stella changed her dress. “Stella, did you get in a fight with Keegan?
”
Stella looked at her, surprised. Then, she said flatly after keeping her dress in her bag, “Why do you
ask?”
“Keegan gave me a call before you came here,” Felicity said honestly. “He sounded a little anxious.”
