Chapter 207
Mrs. Chapman pursed her lips. “Mrs. Wood, remember this; the lesser you speak, the fewer you’d say
the wrong things.”
She then turned around and walked to the crowd without waiting for Mrs. Wood to speak again.
Keegan put Stella down on the couch when they got into the lounge.
Stella lay down weakly on the sofa. Her face was pale, and she did not look well.
Marshall went to get a glass of warm water. When he came back, Keegan was sitting on the edge of the
couch, wiping the sweat on Stella’s forehead with a tissue.
Marshall froze for a moment. He then walked toward them and handed Keegan the glass. ” Keegan, feed
her some water.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtKeegan took the glass and glanced at Stella. But, he took a sip of the water instead. He then pinched
Stella’s chin and wanted to kiss her on the lips.
Stella then slapped him. She got up and stared at him as she said, “You’re disgusting!”
‘Did he think he’s filming a drama? He wanted to feed me the water with his lips?’ Stella thought.
‘She acted quickly and decisively. She didn’t look as weak as before at all,’ thought Keegan. Keegan
calmly swallowed the water. He faintly said, “Not acting anymore?’
Stella choked. She stiffly glanced at Marshall, who was shocked and stunned. Then, she coughed and
said, “I-It wasn’t entirely an act.”
She wondered, “I acted so well. What gave it away?”
Keegan put the glass of water aside. He glanced at her and replied, “Your acting skill is bad. You can
only trick the others.”
Stella was speechless.
Keegan scornfully said, “You can just act like you have some other sickness. Why did you act like you
were pregnant? Don’t you know you’ll definitely get caught when the doctor comes?”
Stella was angry. “Did you think I wanted to do that? It was an emergency. I couldn’t think so much in
such a short time. I couldn’t pretend to pass out, right? It’ll scare grandma.”
Keegan took a quick look at her. “So, did you think you have a conscience for acting as if were
pregnant?”
“Says the guy who took the liberty to say yes for me.”
Marshall noticed that the two of them were going to quarrel. He spoke to interrupt them.” Stella, are you
alright?”
Stella immediately hid the angry look that she would only show to Keegan. She was a little embarrassed
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmas she said, “Earlier was just a special situation.”

The corners of Keegan’s eyes twitched. ‘Since when is she so good at changing her emotions?’
Stella then told Marshall about the origin of the bracelet on stage. Only then Marshall understood why
she did that.
‘So, Stella did all of that because she didn’t want the Kane family to bid for the bracelet.
‘She was the one who traded the bracelet. And, she did some tricks to sell it. So, she figured that tonight
was a set-up aiming at the Kane family. No. To be exact, the set-up was aimed at her.
‘Someone wanted to give her a taste of her own medicine.’
“Mr. Moore, is your aunt close with Henry? Why would she help Henry sell this bracelet?”
“Henry?” Marshall was stunned for a moment. “I heard from my aunt that my uncle’s friend wanted to sell
it. But, I’m not really sure about the details.”
