Chapter 2049
Keegan shook his head. "You always carry yourself in a sophisticated manner, and wearing a cheap
watch might draw attention. Aldor said this piece suits you perfectly.
Even if it's stolen, it won't be easy to sell because of its high value. I can definitely track it before the
thief finds a buyer, but I hope that day never comes."
Stella felt offended by the phrase "suits you perfectly." Then, she said through clenched teeth, "What
do you mean by 'suits me perfectly’? You think I have a flashy attitude?"
Keegan paused, hugged her with a smile, and kissed her hair. "Actually, I'm really attracted to your

Stella glanced at him. "Well, your tastes are certainly unique."
"That's because I have a lot of money," he whispered.
Stella was left speechless, realizing that Keegan had only said that to show off his wealth.
Early the next day, Xavier arrived to pick up Stella. Before heading to Caline, they first dropped off
Wenham and Darcie at the airport.
Xavier observed as Stella said goodbye to Wenham and Darcie with teary eyes, urging them to stay
safe. She even mentioned that she already missed them before they left and asked them to call her

Xavier looked away and shook his head. "Nothing."

Xavier nodded. "Classmates from elementary school."

you, saying that you're diligent and trustworthy."
Xavier knew that Stella was trying to find out his relationship with Jaylene, but after a moment of
silence, he answered truthfully, "I don't really talk to Ms. Saun, and she only put in the good words for
me because I helped her during our school days."
Stella smiled and spoke in a gentle tone, "I thought you guys were close."
Xavier shook his head without saying anything else.
Then, Stella thought to herself, 'Jaylene isn't someone who'd be so grateful, not to mention it has
already been so many years since they went to school together.'
The car stopped in front of a building.
