Keegan glanced at Stella. "I'll print and give you other photos of me. What's so nice about this one? I
look so innocent and ignorant." "No way. I think you look very handsome." Stella smiled and flattered
him," Much more handsome than now. You were at your peak when you were twenty years old, don't
you think so?"
Keegan's mood brightened upon hearing that as a smile appeared on his face. "I still prefer how I look
now," he said flatly.
Looking too handsome and attractive was not necessarily a good thing in the corporate world. Imagine
someone with a charming and youthful aura; even with innovative and cutting-edge ideas, the
appearance may make them sound less convincing.
Over the years, Keegan had maintained the habit of exercising not because he particularly enjoyed it
but because having a robust physique helped him look older and more mature.
Although he still had a beautiful face, his bulky build and the aura accumulated from years of business
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtexperience left no one daring to underestimate him.
The twenty-year-old Keegan was fresh-faced, while the thirty-year-old Keegan exuded the mature
charm of a man.
The former attracted young girls, but the latter was irresistible to a married woman like Stella.
Stella could not help but kiss him on the cheek and said, "Hurry up and pack, or we might miss the last
bus to Jorgeville. The road condition there is very poor; it's more convenient for US to take a bus."
She was about to let go as she spoke, but Keegan grabbed her hand. He said, "Let's go back some
other days. There'll be a lot of people at the wishing well around this time. What if someone knocked
you over?
Besides, the scented candles they light up around the wishing well are not good for a pregnant woman,
too."
Stella became hesitant upon hearing that.
"But my wish came true. If I don't go back there, won't the fairies think I'm ungrateful and hold it against
me?"
Keegan chuckled softly. "I thought you didn't believe in these things."
Stella leaned on his shoulder and spoke in a soft voice, "I believe in it wholeheartedly now. Look,
they've brought you back, haven't they?”
Keegan tousled her hair. "Let me contact the person taking care of the wishing well first. We can
donate some money to improve the condition of that place. Once you've given birth and are feeling
better, we can go back and thank the fairies, okay?"
Stella thought that Keegan's arrangement was good. After all, it was not suitable for her to go to
crowded places now.
"But I already turned down Grandma and Dad, saying that we won't join them for Thanksgiving. It's a
big holiday, and everyone's busy with their own plans. Where should we go?"
Keegan suggested, "Well, I've been wanting to try Great Grandpa's suckling piglets."
Stella laughed upon hearing that. "It's already been a few months. I'm afraid that the piglets are all
grown up now."
Keegan then lowered his voice and spoke in a coquettish tone, "Mrs. Kane, I really want to try them."

Stella's heart instantly melted.
So Keegan informed Aldor, and the two quietly went to Jorgeville to visit Arthur.
Meanwhile, in sterling Legal Solutions, someone knocked on Marshall's office door. The intern, carrying
a bag, opened the door and placed the documents on the desk. He said, ’ Mr. Moore, I'm leaving now.
You should get some rest, too."
Marshall nodded without looking at him.
The intern silently closed the door and left.
After a few minutes, Marshall's phone rang. He looked at the caller ID and answered, "What's the time
now? Why aren't you home yet?"
It was Wallace.
Marshall responded flatly, "I still have some work to do." "Can't you do it tomorrow? You're always late!"
Wallace paused, sighed, and continued in a low voice, "Come home now. Your mom is waiting for you."
Marshall kept quiet for a moment before he replied softly, "Okay."
