‘I wonder how Mr. Kane’s current girlfriend looks like. His ex-wife was gorgeous, yet he could still divorce her. I just can’t imagine how beautiful his new girlfriend is.”
Aldor’s ears moved slightly, but he remained quiet.
“Sigh. To be honest, I’m very fond of Mr. Kane’s ex-wife. Even though I’ve only seen her twice, something in how she speaks makes me so comfortable. She’s not arrogant at all. She even gave me an orange after she asked me for directions. And her smile… oh my. It made me blush even though I’m a woman myself.”
“I heard that she became an actress after divorcing Mr. Kane. She has a show coming up, and I’m looking forward to it very much. It’d be a shame if she didn’t join showbiz with that gorgeous face of hers.”
“After the divorce, there were even rumors about her being an illegitimate child. There were a lot of scandals revolving around her, but it seems like Mr. Kane has never said anything bad about her. Mr. Kane is actually pretty respectful as her ex-husband.”
“I also heard that before her movie production began, a rich man sent her a humongous bouquet of 9999 champagne roses as a gift, and it got so
many people talking about it. She has so many people pursuing her after the divorce. I’m just glad that both of them are doing so well after the divorce.”
Aldor laughed inwardly upon hearing that. ‘I wonder how they would react if they found out that Mr. Kane was the one who sent her that bouquet.’
On the other side, Keegan left the conference room and picked up the call.
As soon as it was connected, Stella immediately questioned him, “Keegan Kane, didn’t I tell you to keep an eye on Vermont? What is going on?”
Keegan was confused, and he frowned. ‘What’s wrong?”
Stella gritted her teeth and said, “Vermont has taken away my best friend!”
“Felicity?” Keegan asked as if he still could not figure out what was happening, “What happened between them?”
“Didn’t you see what Vermont posted online? He said that he’s dating Felicity!”
Keegan was shocked. Then, he immediately checked Vermont’s account and saw what he had posted half an hour ago.
“I knew that he was up to no good, and that’s why I told you to keep an eye on him. How could you let this happen? I’ll probably only find out about this after they get married if I didn’t have Vermont’s number!”
Keegan was surprised after looking at it too, but he recollected himself soon after. “I’ve asked him about it, but he explicitly told me that he and Felicity are just friends.”
Stella sneered. “Yet she’s his girlfriend now. Vermont is always full of lies. I can’t believe that you actually believed him.”
Keegan was taken aback.
However, he tried to find excuses for his good friend anyway, “Do you think they just had too much to drink? Or they’re playing some kind of game?”
“I called Felicity, but Vermont was the one who answered. He even told me to stay out of this. Does this sound like a game to you?”
Keegan remained silent for a while before he said, “Hm. Perhaps they really do like each other.”
“Like my foot! Vermont changes his girlfriend faster than you change your clothes. I don’t have a problem with him messing around with other girls, but not with Felicity! Never!”
Keegan felt a headache. “How does your opinion matter when he already made it public? Even though Vermont could be flirty, he’s not as irresponsible as you think. Besides, outsiders like us don’t know what’s really happening between them. So don’t worry about it. I’ll keep an eye out on him for you.”
“How can I still trust you?” Stella could not help but vent her anger on Keegan after thinking that an unworthy man had taken away her best friend, “He’s going to eat her alive if I keep trusting you!”
“Do you have a better idea then?”
Clearly, Stella did not, and she was just very worried. So, she decided to just throw the problem to Keegan, “Get Vermont to break up with Felicity.”
Keegan rejected her without hesitating. “No.”
Stella did not actually mean that, but she got upset after hearing Keegan’s instant response.
“Why not? Is that so difficult for you? You said you’d listen to everything I say, yet you just rejected me after I made such a simple request. How can I trust anything you say?”
Keegan frowned. “These are two different things. Don’t mix them up. I can listen to you regarding things between us, but this is someone else’s relationship. How could outsiders like us interfere? Please don’t be unreasonable.”
