Chapter 1275

’Why the hell is he blaming me? Does he even remember what he said about the ripped jeans?' thought Stella. She

recalled Keegan had looked at her indifferently and said," Can't you afford clothes without holes? How expensive

can normal clothing be? It's one thing for Aurora to dress like that at her age, but you're a married woman; could

you dress a bit more maturely?"

Naturally, that did not go down well with Stella. She felt offended because she was only a few years older than

Aurora. So, she bought a few more pairs of ripped jeans and wore them every day, purposely showing them off in

front of Keegan.

By coincidence, autumn arrived and brought rain for over half a month. Stella preferred sun-dried clothes since

airdrying left a lingering smell, and machine-drying made clothes feel less fresh. As a result, a pile of dirty clothes

accumulated and remained unwashed.

When the skies finally cleared, the housekeeper tossed everything into the washer, unintentionally causing some of

the holes in the ripped jeans to tear even wider during the wash cycle. By the time they were taken out to dry, most

of them had transformed into a different type of fashion. A few pant legs were entirely torn away, and some jeans

turned into tatters.

At that moment, Keegan stood nearby, leisurely sipping his coffee. He found a bit of amusement in the situation.

"Looks like you've turned some into DIY skirts. No wonder Grandma calls you thrifty."

His words were enough to send Stella's frustration rocketing. She did not even have the time to care for his

possessiveness.

Back in the present, Stella glared at him. "Anyone with half a brain can tell you're crazy from the way you talk!"

Keegan was stunned upon hearing that. He decided to test the waters and said, "Should I just be more direct next

time?"

"Yes," Stella replied. She paused for a moment, glanced at him, and added, "But I'll probably ignore you anyway."

Dumbfounded, Keegan thought, 'So, what's the point then?'

Subsequently, Stella put on a deeply resentful expression as she whispered to Keegan, "Should we find a way to get

those five million dollars back from Albert?"

Keegan's eyelid twitched. He leaned in closer and asked," How would we even do that?"

"Um... I have an idea! We could fake a kidnapping of Xenia. Given Albert's age, it's unlikely he'll have another child.

And this is his only son. He might be willing to pay to get him back."

Keegan looked at Stella, who was full of cunning ideas, and said in a casual tone, "Do you know what the

punishment for extortion is?"

"We could ask Carter to help us set up an overseas bank account, like Albert did befo-"

Before she could finish, Keegan flicked her forehead and said, "Technology is supposed to make our lives better, not

help you do illegal stuff."

Stella rubbed her forehead, pretending it hurt a bit from the flick. As she did that, she grumbled, "Didn't you use

technology to send five million dollars to Albert?"

"Our situations are different. I was being blackmailed, and you're trying to blackmail someone else." Keegan replied

calmly.

Stella rolled her eyes, finding his logic a bit of a stretch.

However, Stella's worries were somewhat unnecessary. Keegan wasn't foolish; he wouldn't just hand over five

million dollars to Albert. To withdraw a large overseas transfer, Albert would need a way to launder the money,

which wasn't easy to set up. It had been over two months, and Albert hadn't withdrawn any of the money. That was

likely why he was so eager to adopt Stella.

Seeing that Keegan's work hours were coming up, Stella quickly urged him to call Albert.

Keegan had planned to make the call later, but he couldn't resist her persuasion and ended up dialing Albert's

number early in the morning.
