Jaylene probably sees me as part of the family. Maybe that's why she invited me.’ Stella pondered for a moment

and said, "Tell her I’ll be there and help me wish her an early happy birthday."

"Alright. Don't worry about the gift. I'll take care of it. I ll swing by to pick you up tomorrow afternoon," said Trevor.

Stella felt a mix of emotions. Sounds good," she said.

Once she hung up, she noticed Keegan sitting on the edge of the bed, observing her. "What’s on your mind?” Stella

inquired.

"I want to go with you," Keegan replied.

Stella raised an eyebrow and grabbed the glass of water on the side. "Are you close with Jaylene?"

"I'll attend as your family member," said Keegan.

Pfft-" Stella almost choked on her water. She looked at the confident man across from her and wiped off the water

droplets from the corner of her lips. She narrowed her eyes and asked, "She didn't send a separate invitation to

you?"

Keegan frowned and said, "Why would she personally invite me?”

"Come on, don’t you remember the whole blind date incident where you lied to me and said that you were working

late?”

"When did I..." Keegan paused, and it dawned on him. It was the day when Aurora had scalded Leighton with hot

water. Dahlia had tricked him into believing that his father’s old friend had arrived in Rivera, and she asked him to

come along. Much to his surprise, he discovered that it was a setup fora blind date.

Thinking back, Keegan could not help but smile. "Your memory is so selective. Why do you remember this incident

so vividly?"

Stella snorted, "I have an excellent memory for grudges! You tricked me into thinking you were working late. I even

ordered food for you because I was worried you didn't eat. Yet, it turns out you were out on a blind date!"

It wasn t a blind date. I only found out that Jaylene was there when I arrived. I think she might have been coerced

into it by her family too," Keegan clarified.

Stella was skeptical. "And, how do you know that? Did she tell you?"

Keegan shook his head. "No... But, given that Jaylene comes from a wealthy family, she wouldn’t rush into marrying

someone who just got divorced, right?"

Hearing that, Stella was momentarily at a loss for words. She was not sure if Keegan was slow or if she was being

overly sensitive.

Stella pressed her lips together and asked, "Did you two have a conversation that day?"

Keegan nodded. "Yeah, we exchanged a few words."

"About?" Stella probed.

"We talked about tea, and she asked me which type I prefer," Keegan answered in a low voice.

Stella found that a little weird.

Keegan continued, "I told her I like Da Hong Pao Tea."

Stella could not help but raise an eyebrow, thinking that it was too early to discuss each other's interests. She felt

frustrated.

Following that, Keegan said, "And then, I mentioned that you make fantastic tea eggs using Da Hong Pao Tea."

Stella was taken aback.
