Chapter 984

Stella was amused and decided to play along. "What did he do to deserve this reaction from you?" After a long

time, Keegan pursed his lips and told the story in bits and parts.

From his incoherent speech, Stella found out that Keegan disliked Howard because of her. She never thought that

she would be the reason. The details were both funny and heartbreaking.

Stella did not know Keegan very well when they first got married. So, she decided to talk to his friends to find out

what he liked. Since they did not really know her and may not want to engage with her, Stella often made desserts

to bribe them into letting her learn more about Keegan.

Keegan’s friends were good people. After receiving her gifts, they would tell Stella about his likes and dislikes.

Keegan did not know about this at first, but when he found out, he had a fight with her. Stella always thought it was

because he was ashamed of her trying to flatter his friends with desserts. But now, she realized it was because

Keegan overheard Howard saying mean things about her. He would tell people that she was "all beauty, no brains"

or that she was using her looks to get favors from men and climb to the top.

Keegan chose to use nicer words in his explanation because the ones Howard had used were way worse. Howard's

comments affected other people's perceptions of Stella at

the beginning of her union with Keegan for a long time.

Keegan was understandably upset when he heard that. He had let Howard into his home and treated him well, yet

Howard went behind his back and badmouthed his wife. So, Keegan went off on him right there and then.

When Keegan returned home that day, he saw Stella burn her hand making desserts. She even asked him to bring

some for his friends when they met the next day. Keegan's face turned dark. He did not hold back from telling her

that she should stop putting effort into these things and that it was useless.

Stella felt hurt after Keegan burst her bubble. She was so angry and disappointed that she threw away all her

dessert molds and did not talk to him for several days. From then on, she subconsciously avoided his circle of

friends.

As Stella listened to Keegan ramble on about the incident, she suddenly asked, "So it's not because you don't like

me around your circle of friends?"

Keegan was stunned and frowned, "Isn't it you who don't like being around them? You pull a long face whenever

you're invited to a gathering."

Stella was surprised, "When have you ever invited me?

"Did you forget?" Keegan asked.

Stella was taken aback for a moment. "Give me a hint, Mr. Kane."

"Vermont held a grand opening ceremony for his company. I asked if you wanted to come along, but you pulled

such a long face that you looked like a donkey. You even told me I could bring whoever I want," Keegan grunted.

Stella thought about it and recalled the incident. It was nothing like the version Keegan provided. He was not the

type to ask if someone wanted to go nicely. His exact words were, "Vermont is holding a grand opening for his new

company today. He asked if you wanted to come. Do you? I won't bring my secretary if you do. There won't be

enough seats."

No one would be happy to hear that invitation. 'Well, you've already decided to bring your secretary. So why would

you need your wife there?' Stella thought. "You can bring whoever you want because I'm not going!" She replied.

Stella pinched Keegan's ears and gritted her teeth, "Is that even a proper invitation? You literally asked me if I

wanted to go AFTER you planned to attend the event with your female secretary."

Keegan frowned in pain and whispered, "I didn't plan on doing that. I just said that on purpose so you'd care about

me."

Stella was speechless.
