Stella seethed with anger. “So, I’m supposed to pay you in the future if we have sex, huh?”
Keegan let out a soft chuckle, his eyes gleaming with mischief. “No need forthat. Business is business, and pleasure is pleasure. Pleasing my girlfriend is my duty, and I’m willing to go to any lengths.”
Stella couldn’t let his comment slide and decided to launch a personal attack. ‘But I didn’t feel pleased, though.”
Keegan paused, then suddenly strode toward her. His expression was devoid of emotion, his steps steady, and his commanding presence filled the room.
A hint of intimidation crept over Stella. However, surrendering was never an option for her. She straightened her posture and locked eyes with him, defiance emanating from her gaze. “What do you want?”
Keegan swiftly bent down, lifting her onto the table. He parted her legs and positioned himself in front of her, one hand gripping her waist and the other firmly planted on the table, ensnaring her within his grasp.
Stella was startled by this sudden move, only then realizing how suggestive the position was. She thought to herself,1 Isn’t this some kind of table play? Geez, has Keegan been reading some inappropriate stuff? Why is he so full of surprises these days?’
Just as she was about to voice her thoughts, Keegan leaned in and planted a kiss on her lips.
Under the spell of Keegan’s seduction, Stella’s self-restraint melted away. She put on a brief show of resistance before succumbing to the allure of the kiss, her arms instinctively wrapping around Keegan’s
waist. Her mind became a jumble of thoughts, recalling an online phrase that had been circulating: “A man’s waist is not simply a waist, but a dangerous curve.”
Caught up in the whirlwind of emotions, Stella heard Keegan’s deep voice resonate, “You’re only truly honest in moments like this.”
She gazed at him through watery eyes, her expression mirroring confusion.
Keegan pointed with his finger, signaling her to look down.
Lowering her head, Stella discovered that her hands had unknowingly come to rest on his belt buckle. She had unknowingly contemplated undoing it.
Startled, she hastily withdrew her hands, a look of disbelief etched across her face.
Nonchalantly adjusting his attire, Keegan glanced at the bewildered Stella, a smirk dancing on his lips. “I rather enjoy this side of your honesty,” he mused. After playfully ruffling her hair, he sauntered away, content.
Left speechless, Stella found herself spending the next two days as a guest in Keegan’s opulent mansion, feeling akin to a canary in a gilded cage.
Despite Elegant Media’s best efforts to clarify the situation through a statement and accompanying video footage, Stella’s ongoing silence inadvertently fueled the intensifying turmoil. The relentless onslaught of online condemnation from keyboard warriors painted Bella as the ideal victim in the incident, adding to the complexity of the situation. As a result, the viewership of The Palace suffered a significant decline, plummeting below its previously impressive premiere ratings.
Coincidentally, on that very same day, a social media channel leaked the news that Bella Young, the central figure in the controversy, had secured the coveted role of the leading actress in the highly
anticipated New Year blockbuster drama, Twinkling Lights. This revelation was followed by both the official social media page of Twinkling Lights and the director themselves promptly extending their virtual embrace to Bella by becoming her followers.
Bella’s devoted fans erupted in joyous celebration as the news broke, especially since there had been persistent rumors suggesting that Nicole Aspen was a strong contender for the female lead in Twinkling Lights prior to this revelation.
