Chapter 144
Maya was shaking with anger. Stella had been too kind and gentle for too long. Everyone thought she
was a weak little bunny. But she was, in fact, a lion who was ready to bite back. ‘ How would I ever stand
out from the crowd if I continue being an obedient bunny?’ she thought.
‘So what if Dahlia sent her here? She’s just a housemaid. Keegan doesn’t even bat an eye at her. I’m
bound to be the lady of this house if I can secure my place as Keegan’s wife. She won’t even be able to
secure her job!’
Maya was unhappy, but she did not dare to provoke Stella again. She had every right to fire her. Maya

Stella did not eat dinner that night. Instead, she went to her room and hit the sheets. Keegan’s return
was unclear to her, but she was alone in her bedroom when she woke up the next day. She asked Maya
about it and found out he came home at around 11:00 p.m. last night. ‘He must have spent the night in
the study and left early in the morning,’ she thought.
Stella did not care about Keegan. She even felt that it was better if he did not return. The villa was big
and comfortable; there was lots of space for pets. But Keegan disliked animals. Stella knew they would
get into a fight if she adopted some cats and dogs because he would probably throw them out when she
was not at the house.
Suddenly, her phone rang after she had washed her face. Stella saw that it was Albert and did not plan
to answer the call. Instead, she left her phone upstairs and went down to have breakfast.
When Stella went up, she saw the trending headlines on the internet.

Soon, the initial shock disappeared as the internet revealed that the bag was only at an entry- level price.
It was merely thirty thousand to forty thousand dollars, which was not worth mentioning compared to the
30-million-dollar bracelet.
‘Okay, he’s still the cheapskate I thought he was. But he did the most to spread the news. People are
already talking about Xianna buying the 30-million-dollar bracelet after one night. Dad must have called
because he saw the news.”
Stella played outside with the neighbor’s dog before calling her dad back during breakfast. Albert was as
anxious as a parent who had lost his child. Henry had called him at 5:00 in the morning to scold him,
saying that he was playing dirty tricks and that he would not let him go so easily.
Only then did Albert realize the gravity of the matter. He did not even bother to wash up as he
hurriedly called Stella to ask if Keegan had talked to Vermont about it.
