Chapter 1922
Vermont could not help but spurt the tea in his mouth all over. He coughed for some time
as his face turned extremely red. However, he still teased Felicity, "If my name is Doggy,
does that make you Bitchy? It doesn't sound too bad. We can call ourselves the Night
Howlers, and our children can be called Cute Puppies. What do you think?"
Felicity's face turned red from anger, "Only your children will be called puppies!"
"Yeah," Vermont smiled. "You'll be the one giving birth to them for me."
Felicity punched him. When the two started fooling around, the atmosphere at the table
became much happier. Keegan took advantage of the situation and pulled Stella closer,
whispering, "Please don't be mad at me, okay?"
Stella glanced at him, pursed her lips, and sat back down. Then, she "reluctantly" said,
"I'm only staying because I don't want to ruin someone else's wedding."
Keegan lowered his eyes, seeming to chuckle. He continued softly, "Thank you, Coach
Hall."
'Coach Hall...'
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtStella suddenly remembered a time when Keegan used to call her "Coach Jewell" by her
ear, asking for extra class.
She then immediately looked at Keegan, who seemed calm and perfectly normal.
'Scumbag! If you're going to pretend, then do it properly. Stop teasing me like that!' Stella
thought to herself.
"Oh, by the way..." Marshall took a sip of the wine and put the glass down. He continued,
"Keegan, I bumped into someone familiar when I was at the office just now."
Keegan shifted his gaze to Marshall nonchalantly.
Then, Marshall said, "It was your aunt, Scarlett Ford. She wants to hire a lawyer to handle
her divorce. Do you know about that?"
Keegan frowned, showing that he was unaware, "Since when?"
"It seems to have been happening before the New Year. I heard from my colleagues that
she had inquired about the divorce on the phone before, but she probably had not made
up her mind yet at that time. However, she came over today, probably intending to
consult with a lawyer."
Marshall paused before continuing, "She claimed that her husband hid his wealth from her
and even had a secret lover behind her back. She wants to file a divorce and discuss the
division of their property and the custody of their two children. I recommended one of my
colleagues who specializes in divorce cases to her. Your aunt has been married to your
uncle for about twenty years now; I don't think he's someone who would do those things.
Do you want to tell Ms. Crosby about it so she can talk to them? Although something
unpleasant happened between you
guys back then, you're still family."
Keegan was taken aback, "What unpleasant things?"
Marshall paused and rubbed his temples, seemingly a little distressed, "Sorry. I forgot that
you don't remember anything. I*
Keegan frowned, looking somewhat confused and bewildered.
Stella lowered her gaze and sipped on her juice slowly.
She felt like Marshall was probing whether Keegan had recovered his memory.
Previously, Dahlia had brought Blake to her to cause trouble, and they argued. This caused
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmKeegan's relationship with the Crosby family to become very bad. If he still could not
remember Stella, he would not know what had happened.
He brought the matter up using the issue of Blake and Scarlett getting a divorce.
Initially, Stella focused entirely on the divorce, thinking it had nothing to do with Keegan.
She knew that Blake and Scarlett were not good people because they never offered
Keegan any help when he was in trouble. Instead, they made things worse for him and
even took advantage of his wealth using their relationship with Dahlia.
Now that they were getting a divorce, Stella felt like it was a godsend. If they were not out
in public, she would probably say that she had been waiting for this moment.
She had not realized the trap that Marshall set Keegan with.
However, if Keegan had thought the same way as her, Marshall's intention could have
most probably been achieved.
'Is he doing this on purpose?' Stella wondered to herself.
Marshall continued, "Your aunt is well-prepared, and it seems like she's determined to get
a divorce. Although you had some unhappy encounters with Blake, he's still your uncle.
You should at least tell him about it so he can be prepared in advance to avoid losing both
his family and money."
