Chapter 2017
Keegan juggled work while keeping an eye on her. After observing her for a while, he could not hold
back any longer but asked, "Why can't you just sit still?"
Stella sighed. "I have no one to talk to and I'm bored. Moving around makes me feel less dull."
Keegan was speechless. "Do you want me to call Vermont over, so you two can talk?" "It's okay. I can
chat with Aldor too. Aldor, you're not busy, are you?" Stella blinked her eyes as she asked, looking
hopeful.
Aldor shook his head. "I'm almost done with my work, just waiting for Mr. Kane to look through."
Stella immediately sat down. "Aldor, how are things between you and Aurora now?"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHer question caught both Aldor and Keegan by surprise.
She was not bored. Instead, her curiosity was driving her crazy and she finally decided to unleash it.
Aldor chuckled awkwardly. "Mrs. Kane, can we talk about something else?"
Stella said, "Did Keegan threaten you with something and force you to marry his sister? It's okay, you
can be honest with me. I have your back and won't let him force you into a marriage against your will."
Keegan paused. 'Does she really think I'd do such a thing?'
Aldor said, "No, Mr. Kane will never do that." "So, you do like Aurora, huh?"
Her question was too straightforward, and Aldor did not know how to answer as he looked for Keegan
for help.
Keegan glanced at him as if saying, "Well, weren't you very proud when siding with her to make fun of
me earlier?'
However, Keegan still decided to chime in, "Why are you so concerned about Aider's love life?"
Stella was immediately distracted by Keegan's question. "I'm just worried that Aurora will bully Aldor.
She used to do that a lot, didn't she?" "Aldor is not that easy to bully. Aurora worked under him when
she first joined the company. Do you think that Aldor can't handle her?" Keegan spoke as he signaled
Aldor to leave first.
Stella said, "You might not be necessarily right. Aurora is your sister, and if she mistreated Aldor, would
he ever dare to tell you?" "He won't, but Aurora will. She can't keep things to herself," Keegan paused
before he asked softly, "Do you still hate Aurora for what she did before?"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmStella shook her head. "I don't exactly hate her, but what she did still bothers me. However, when she
went against what your mother told her to do, she kind of saved me."
Then, she suddenly shifted the topic, "But that's a story for another day. I'm pretty sure you know what
Aurora's temper is like. How can you do this to Aldor?"
Keegan sighed. "You're always so clever, but why do you sound so foolish now? Think about it, if Aldor
had no feelings for Aurora, he would've straightforwardly rejected me."
Stella paused as her expression became somewhat strange. "I really can't imagine that Aldor would
like someone like Aurora."
Keegan said flatly, "What can I say? Before I met you, I never thought that my other half would be
someone so greedy and lustful either."
