Chapter 1828
Felicity was not naive. Usually, hearing such words would have triggered her anger. However, she managed to keep
her cool due to Vermont's advice.
If this had happened elsewhere, Felicity would have unleashed a verbal storm on Jaylene without a second thought.
Yet, surrounded by Stella's acquaintances, Felicity exercised restraint to avoid embarrassing her friend.
"Ms. Saun, you, too, have a unique taste. Most of my friends prefer single and unmarried individuals. This is the first
time I've encountered someone who appreciates divorced men with girlfriends." ’
Jaylene's expression stiffened.
Felicity batted her eyelashes and continued, "Is this a particular preference of yours? I happen to know quite a few
divorced men. Do you want me to introduce them to you? Though, my friends have higher standards. It might not

your liking.
Jaylene's face darkened.
Felicity expected Jaylene to make a scene and reveal her true colors to everyone. However, Jaylene only clenched
her fists and tried to control her emotions. Red-eyed, she said, "I don't understand why you harbor such strong ill
will toward me, Ms. Thompson. Is it because of Stella? If she has any grievances against me, she can express them
directly. There's no need to have her friend say these things to me. I've always believed that Keegan's safety is
more important than anything. I never expected Stella to make such a big deal out of this."
The buzzing crowd surrounding them began to murmur in response to Jaylene's words. The discussion centered on
Stella being overly petty.
To them, Jaylene had saved Keegan's life, yet Stella seemed unable to accept that. Not only was she jealous of
Jaylene and Keegan, but she even had her friend criticize her.
Felicity's lips twitched.
Never in her life had she encountered a hypocrite like Jaylene, whose agenda went beyond bringing Stella down and
extended to creating conflict in their relationship.
"You pretentious bi-"
Before Felicity could complete her sentence, Vermont pinched her cheeks and said, "Everything always comes out
wrong when you say it. Ms. Saun doesn't need your help to find a partner. Keegan is right here, isn't he?"
Felicity was about to protest, but Vermont continued, "Did you forget what Keegan posted on his social media? He
treats Ms. Saun like a sister. He'd help her find a partner if she's looking. You don't need to do anything."
Felicity's gaze shifted, and she stopped resisting.
However, Jaylene's expression was a vivid display of mixed emotions.

A few days ago, screenshots of Keegan's post had circulated in their group. His message was clear-he and Jaylene
stood no chance.
When Jaylene saw the screenshot, she felt like she had been slapped in the face. She felt worse now that Vermont
was bringing it up in front of so many people.
Jaylene's lips quivered, and her complexion turned unpleasant.
She looked at Keegan, hoping for some reassurance, but he rubbed his temples, appearing rather uncomfortable.
Seeing Jaylene looking over, he stood up and said, "Jaylene, excuse me for a moment. I need to go to the
restroom."
Jaylene had no choice but to swallow her grievances. "Be careful, Keegan," she said.
Keegan responded and left.
"Mr. Snyder, have you had too much to drink? Shall I support you?" Felicity mimicked Jaylene's tone and asked
Vermont.
Vermont draped his arm over her shoulder, smiling, "You're so strong. Why don't you just carry me?"
