Chapter 1051
The housekeeper had already cleaned up the room, and Stella wanted to just quickly send her old classmate to the
room.
However, her old classmate seemed very interested in her house and insisted on meeting Stella's husband to thank
him in person.
At that time, the huge wedding photo in the living room had not been installed yet and there were not any photos of
Stella and Keegan on the first floor.
Her old classmate kept speaking in a regretful tone saying that Stella should not have gotten married so early
because of how well she did at school. She even said that marriage should not be built on only materialistic things,
but common values. She also mentioned that a huge gap in age difference would often lead to a problematic
relationship.
Stella listened to her words and realized that she was implying that she had married an older man for his money.
Stella immediately got a little mad at her. However, she did not confront her about it out of politeness. Instead, she
began to treat her old classmate a lot colder.
Stella's old classmate probably realized that she had spoken too much and stopped talking about that topic.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtStella would only think that her old classmate was bad at socializing if everything ended there.
However, when her old classmate saw Keegan returning home and found out that he was Stella's husband, her
attitude took a big turn.
She began calling Keegan by his first name and would even compliment him when he drank some water by saying,
"Keegan, you look so attractive when you're drinking water."
Stella's old classmate was petite and had a decent-looking face, but it was nothing too outstanding. However, she
was very popular among the guys during their school days. She never had to lift a finger whenever there was an
event that required the students to move their chairs and tables because there would always be guys who were not
even her boyfriend offering to help.
Even Stella, who was the prettiest girl in school, had never experienced a privilege like that.
Stella used to tell Felicity about this and wondered why she could not get the guys' attention like her old classmate.
She just could not figure out why none of them would offer to help her.
Felicity's response hit the nail on the bed. "Well, it's because she knows how to act cute. All men are the same.
They'll lose control whenever they heard a woman acting all sweet.
"And you? Although you have a pretty face, you speak like a man. When guys asked you for your number, you'd tell
them that you don't have a subscription plan; when they ask if you're hungry, you'd tell them you just ate; when
they asked if you're drunk, you'd say that you can barely taste the alcohol. No one dares to flirt with a girl like you.
They just don't know how to deal with you."
Stella did not agree with her at first. However, as time passed, she began to realize that the girls who got the most
attention from the guys were not necessarily the prettiest, but rather those who were outgoing and would treat
guys as their brothers if they were not the type who loved to act cute.
Her old classmate was one of them.
When Stella heard her calling Keegan by his name, she got goosebumps all over. She shifted her gaze to Keegan
and did not see any special reaction on his face.
Stella was actually kind of unhappy with how her old classmate addressed her husband. However, her old
classmate claimed that she did that on purpose to test her husband as soon as Keegan walked away.
Stella was confused.
Her old classmate explained in a serious tone, "Rich men are usually unfaithful, especially those who are
handsome. Most of them can't resist temptations at all. Did you notice how he did not reject it when I called his
name so suggestively in front of you? It means that he still enjoys being admired by other women. You better watch
out."
Stella felt very uncomfortable after hearing what she said.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmOn one hand, she thought that how could one make a correct judgment about a person in just a few minutes? On
the other hand, she was bothered by the fact that Keegan did not reject her old classmate as if he really did enjoy
another woman talking to him like that.
In those days, the caretaker took leave due to personal matters, so Stella spent most of her time at the hospital.
She would leave home early in the morning and come back late at night, barely having the chance to speak to
anyone in the house.
Her old classmate said that she would only stay for a few days. However, it had been a week, and she showed no
intention of wanting to leave at all.
Stella felt as though it was very inconvenient for an outsider to stay in her home. Sometimes when she wanted to
get intimate with Keegan, her old classmate would knock on their door to say that the door of her room toilet was
jammed or ask her how to use the hair dryer, which ruined their mood.
Their moods were completely dampened, and Keegan even moved to the study room to sleep.
When Stella asked her about her job search, she would always say that there were no suitable jobs for her. Stella
recommended her to a few jobs, but she either complained about the working hours being too long, the low salary,
or the need to work outside of Rivera.
Stella originally wanted to help her old classmate out of goodwill but ended up bringing trouble upon herself.
Just as Sella was contemplating how she could tactfully ask her to move out, she woke up the next morning, and
her old classmate was nowhere to be found
