Chapter 2181 Didn't they agree to have a little fun if they stumbled upon something interesting? The revolution hadn't even succeeded, and they were already turning traitors midway! She couldn't count on these two! Stella whispered, "Would you believeif | said | wanted to take your son and daughter out to see the world?" Keegan, his expression cold just responded with a grunt.
Stella was speechless.
Felicity chimed in, "Honesty is the best policy. Stella, just spill it." Vermont added, "Stella, remember our deal before we chere? We stick together through thick and thin. You can't throw US under the bus now." Stella shot a glare at the two traitors, then turned to meet Keegan's intense gaze, immediately feeling flustered.
"Well, actually, | was helping your uncle quit gambling." Keegan replied icily, “How much money did you transfer to her?" Pretending to be confused, Stella asked, "Who? | transferred money to someone?" Keegan took out his phone without a word. "If you won't tell me, I'll ask her.” Stella confessed immediately, "Not much, just two hundred and fifty million." Keegan's expression darkened. "Why did you give her money?" Vermont glanced between them, then stood up, pulling Felicity with him." We're heading out to get sgroceries. You two can sort this out.” With that, he dragged Felicity away, leaving Stella and Keegan alone in the room.
Stella moved closer to sit beside Keegan. "Honey..." "Stay there and talk, don't cover." Keegan interrupted her, wary of her coaxing him and making himself vulnerable.

Stella remained seated. "Your uncle's company ran into trouble, and your mom asked for my help. | transferred her smoney.
Who knew it would end up being used for gambling? | just wanted to teach him a lesson." Keegan looked at her, his gaze deep and complex.
He understood the animosity between Dahlia and Stella. Dahlia's bankruptcy was a joke to her; why would she help? Keegan stared at her for a long moment before asking, "Is she threatening you with something?" Stella shook her head instinctively. "No." Ignoring her denial, Keegan continued, "Is this related to me?" Stella remained silent.
Keegan spoke again, "I know what kind of person she is better than you. Is she threatening to accuseof neglecting my duties? I'm not afraid. You shouldn't have agreed to her; she's insatiable, never satisfied." Seeing him like this, Stella felt uneasy.
Dahlia could ask for money for Blake's sake, but she was harsh when it cto her own son.
Dahlia knew how to love, but she never showed that love to Keegan.
Stella moved closer, gently stroking his hand. "You're not afraid, but | am.
My husband, you're generous and noble. | can't let her tarnish you."
Keegan pulled her into his arms, closing his eyes. "Then you should also tell me. In a place like that, with all sorts of Shady characters, what if something had happened? What would becof me?"
Stella patted his shoulder lightly.

"Actually, I only went in once on the first day. After that, I stayed in the lounge.It was all Vermont's doing.
After everything is settled, we must buy him a nice meal, to show our gratitude." Keegan's face darkened. "He took you to a place like that, and | should thank him? It's good enough that I don't hold him accountable. Why should | thank him?" Stella lightly tapped his head. "Vermont is already looking out for me. Why would others helpif not for your sake? Play nice." Keegan pursed his lips and remained silent.
Not long after Blake was thrown onto the street, he was caught by debt collectors.
Dahlia couldn't reach him, and it wasn't until the next morning that, Blake called. When Dahlia picked up, she asked, “Where have you been? You've not been picking up my calls." "Are you Dahlia?"
