Chapter 1234
"Don't you have an important meeting this afternoon?" Stella inquired.
Keegan hesitated for a moment and said, "Then, I'll go with you tomorrow."
"Alright.'
Keegan was surprised at how compliant Stella was today. But then, she continued, 'Do you know where to go for the
paperwork? Do you know the process of these things? Do you have anyone on the inside who could help us? It can
be tricky to deal with the authorities in that department, you know? What if they say something you don’t like? Can
you guarantee that you won't lose your temper there and then?"
With each question Stella raised, Keegan's expression turned grimmer." Are you saying that I'm not as capable as
Marshall right now?" he asked.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"I didn't mean it that way. You're undoubtedly the best in your industry. No one can beat my man at building robots,"
Stella said softly.
Keegan was flattered by her praise, especially when she referred to him as her man. However, he did not let those
words sway him. "How can you acknowledge my abilities yet still want his help?"
"Everyone has their own expertise, Keegan. Sure, you excel at making money, but you're not that skilled in handling
interpersonal relationships like Marshall."
Keegan frowned. "What do you mean I'm not as skilled as him?'
"See? I'm just explaining the situation, and you're already getting defensive. You're too stubborn, Keegan. Even
though your research team puts in the most effort and makes the most money in the company, you still can't win
people's hearts like Uncle Chandler."
Keegan was about to refute, but Stella continued, "I know you don't like those who suck up to powerful individuals
just to boost their status and those who only befriend people who agree with them. But, our society is built on
personal connections. You cant always think that way.
"I asked Marshall for help because he's adept at dealing with people. As a lawyer, he knows the ins and outs of
interpersonal relationships and has interacted with all sorts of individuals, especially those in political circles. He also
knows how to navigate conversations with those people, which will make things easier."
Although Keegan was not happy to hear that, he knew what Stella said was true. He might have argued back if
Stella compared both of them in other aspects, but he had to admit that Marshall had far more connections than he
did. Getting the land patent would be a piece of cake for Marshall.
"Is it urgent?" Keegan pursed his lips and asked, believing that he could help Stella obtain the necessary paperwork
if he was given a few days.
"I don't want to drag this on for too long. The kindergarten on that piece of land is generating income for Hylda. I
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmmust get the patent as soon as possible to cut off her financial resources. That way, she and Albert will teareach
other apart.’
Keegan fell silent for a moment. "Do as you wish," he said and hung up the phone.
Stella was speechless at how childish he was acting.
After the call ended, Keegan thought about the situation and dialed Felicity's number.
Felicity had been preparing for her new job for the past two days. When she saw Keegan's name come up on the
screen of her phone, she hesitated before picking it up.
"Hey, Ms. Thompson, are you busy at the moment?" Keegan's tone sounded polite, which made Felicity nervous.
"Wh-What's up?"
"The person who bought the script last time said it was good and wants to get another customized copy from you.
Are you available to take it?" Keegan asked.
"Yes!" Felicity blurted out. Suddenly, she remembered that Keegan gave her the first job because he wanted to
compensate her for getting her arrested. 'There's no way this guy is introducing me to another job for no reason,'
she thought.
"Why are you suddenly offering me a job? What do you want this time?" Felicity asked with caution.
