Chapter 1461
Stella did not take it. She had just cried, and her eyes were still red. It made her look very vulnerable.
"Darcie, this was just a misunderstanding to begin with, and it's my fault for bringing it up at the wrong time. If I
were to take this bangle from you, how do I explain where it came from if others asked? If I told them that you gave
it to me as compensation on behalf of Jaylene, they would definitely want to find out what exactly happened. I'm
never good at explaining things, and if they misunderstood anything, there would be a big problem.
"You've been busy preparing and picking the right hotel for the banquet in the past few days. I should've just let it
go considering the effort you put into this for me. It was my fault for bringing it up.’
Darcie's heart sank, as she subconsciously glanced at Wenham.
His expression turned somewhat unpleasant.
'Why did she have to mention the hotel?
'She's clearly just pretending to admit that it was her fault.
'I underestimated her. I shouldn't have tried to make things difficult for her during the banquet. Wenham is very
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇteager to compensate her due to his guilt, and there is just no way that he would allow her to be mistreated,' Darcie
thought to herself.
The fact that Wenham gave the shares of Caline to Stella without discussing it with her was to show how dissatisfied
he was with her actions.
Darcie pursed her lips and gently said, "It's my fault for not being thoughtful enough. You're already generous
enough to let things go, and I shouldn't have brought it up. Just keep this bangle as a gift from me for returning to
our family. And..."
She paused before she continued, "I'll let you manage a jewelry shop named The Velvet on Galaxy Avenue. It might
not be as valuable as your father's gift, but please don't refuse it."
Stella lowered her gaze. "Darcie, it's too much..."
"Stella, you can take it," Wenham said. "Our family has a lot of businesses. You'll need to learn how to manage them
in the future anyway. Consider it a part of your training."
After being married for so many years, Darcie knew that Wenham had accepted her proposed offer as soon as he
spoke.
However, Jaylene still looked pale, as her fingers trembled slightly.
Stella did not push it any further. "Since dad says so, I'll accept it, then. Thank you, Darcie."
She reached out and took the bangle. "It's so beautiful. Darcie, you have such great taste," she praised with a
smile.
Darcie clenched her fists tightly and forced a smile. "I'm glad that you like it."
The titanium bangle was worth a fortune. Stella was shocked by how generous Darcie was, as she would have
never done the same thing as her.
After a while, the doctor came.
Then, the doctor examined Jaylene's condition.
The doctor told everyone that Jaylene was fine now, but she could stay in the hospital for another night if they were
worried.
Darcie felt the need for it and wanted Jaylene to spend the night in the hospital. Wenham had to send off a few old
friends who were catching a late-night flight. So, he had Trevor to stay and help.
After that, Stella and Keegan, accompanied by her two younger cousins, took the elevator down.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAldor was already waiting outside the hospital by then. Stella turned around and said to her younger cousins, "Let's
send you back first."
Leighton was wearing a mask and a cap, looking very cool.
it's fine. My manager's car is here," he said.
Stella did not insist. "Okay, then. Be careful on the road and let me know when you're home."
Noah grabbed Stella's hand and finally asked the question he had been holding back for the entire night. "Stella, is
that your husband?"
He silently pointed at Keegan, who was standing next to them.
Stella paused before she smiled and said, "Yeah."
'What a handsome man," Noah complimented.
Stella felt very happy as if the compliment was directed to herself. "You're very handsome too," she said.
Leighton could not stand the fact that his little brother was getting more attention than him, so he glanced at him
and said, "Are you coming or not? Find your own way home if you want to stay."
Noah pouted and reluctantly said goodbye to Stella before getting into the MPV with his brother.
Noah waved at Stella behind the car window while Leighton, who was sitting in the front passenger seat, silently
rolled up the rear window on Noah's side.
