Chapter 125

Startled by his outburst, Stella thought, ‘It’s just a pair of socks. Does he really have to make a big deal

out of it?‘

“I didn’t do it on purpose,” Stella tried to explain. “The two bags looked so similar, and I didn’t realize I put

the socks in the wrong one.”

Keegan’s face remained cold and stern. “Call and ask him to bring them back,” he commanded.

Stella frowned, “How am I supposed to do that? I’ve already given them away. It’s just a one- hundred–

dollar pair of socks. I can’t just ask Mr. Moore to return them.”

“If you knew that once a gift has been given and it’s not proper to ask for it back, then why did you give

away a gift meant for me?” Keegan snapped.

She felt like Keegan was just looking for an excuse to start a fight with her.

‘He’s been giving me this attitude since we were at Cordelia’s residence just now. It’s not really about the

socks. He’s just using them as an excuse to mess with me.‘

Baldwin was still inside the car with them, so Stella had to bite her tongue and respond calmly, “I really

didn’t mean it. It’s just a pair of socks. I can buy you another pair if that’s what you want.”

Keegan was even more angry at her perfunctory attitude. “Is this just about buying new socks? Do you

even take this seriously?”

Stella’s anger exploded. She no longer cared about Baldwin’s presence and shot back, “Yeah, right.

You’re the only one who didn’t take it seriously. Otherwise, why didn’t you keep it when I gave it to you? I

was thoughtful enough to get you a gift, but you acted like you were annoyed. Who the hell knows if you

really want those socks?! Now they’re gone, and you’re blaming me? I don’t think this is really about the

socks. You just want to pick a fight with me!”

Keegan’s hands were trembling in rage. “You’re the one who made a mistake, yet you think your action is

justifiable.”

Stella glared at him. “I shouldn’t have bought that damn pair of socks just to let you find fault with me!”

“Baldwin, pull over!” said Keegan and Stella simultaneously with stern faces.

Stella turned and said in hatred, “No need to chase me out of the car! I’ll get off myself!”

“When did I say that I was going to chase you out of the car?” said Keegan. His face was purple with

rage.

This gave Stella a chance to bring up the past. “You’re really forgetful, Keegan Kane. You must have

forgotten it right after you kicked me out of your car last time!”

Keegan’s temple twitched as he said, “Stella Jewell, that’s enough! I haven’t even held you accountable

for selling that bag!”

Stella retorted, “Do it, then. I can just pay you back the money. I’ll feel troubled if you don’t.” Baldwin, who

was driving, could no longer listen to their bickering. “Mr. and Mrs. Kane, both of you need to calm down.

This is just a minor issue, and there’s no safe place to pull over with

the heavy rain outside.”

Stella snorted. “Compared to the time he kicked me out of the car in the rain, this is nothing!”

“Stella Jewell!”

Seeing that the two were about to argue again, Baldwin raised his voice. “Mr. and Mrs. Kane, if you keep

quarreling, I will have to call Madam.”

At the mention of Cordelia, the two finally stopped arguing and fell silent. They turned to the opposite

sides of the car, wishing that they could be far away from each other at that moment.

When they reached the Kane residence, Keegan disembarked from the car and slammed the door shut,

not uttering a word.

Stella grumbled under her breath, “Crazy bastard.” Then, she turned to Baldwin and said, ” Baldwin,

could you give this to Cordelia for me?” Baldwin noticed that Stella was holding the car keys that Trevor

had given her.

Back at Cordelia’s home, Cordelia had already gone to bed, so Stella could only ask Baldwin, Cordelia’s

most trusted assistant, to pass on the keys. “Mrs. Kane, Madam has asked you to keep the car, so you

may keep it,” Baldwin said.

“But, this is too expensive,” Stella replied. “Mr. Saun is only being generous because of his friendship

with the Kane family, so that car should be considered a gift for the Kane family.”

Baldwin smiled and replied softly, “But, aren’t you a member of the Kane family? Why can’t you accept it

as it is?”
