‘Does he have some plan he doesn’t want me to be involved in?’ Stella thought for a moment and decided to trust Keegan.
He did not talk about sleeping in another room anymore. After that, they visited Cordelia at her house and stayed there until nighttime.
When they returned home, Stella found that the house had changed. The stairs and bedroom floors were all covered with thick wool carpets.
Stella was taken aback as she turned to Keegan. He frowned, “Grandma is being overly worried.”
Stella did not say anything. She thought, ‘How did Grandma know that I almost fell this morning?’
Stella pursed her lips, “She’s being thoughtful.”
She stepped on the carpet and said, “It’s very soft.”
Keegan smiled faintly, but it instantly disappeared when Stella turned around. Then, he said, “I’m going to the study.”
“Okay,” Stella said before lowering her head and chuckling softly. ‘How childish of him,’ she thought to herself.
The next day, Trevor flew to Mystonia to investigate the cause of the plane crash.
At the same time, Keegan had to visit some relatives from the extended family.
Cordelia greatly valued these relatives and wanted him to visit them yearly.
When Keegan and Stella were still married, they would visit these relatives together with Cordelia. However, now that they were divorced, it would not be appropriate for her to visit them anymore, so Keegan went alone.
Stella asked Trevor to bring over some of the most classic products from Caline to her. She had nothing else to do, so she started learning to distinguish the smell.
She decided to learn something before starting work at Caline.
While Stella was in her room, jotting down the scents she could identify, Felicity called and invited her to play Mahjongg. Despite having an oriental origin, it was a rather popular game in Hustuabourg.
“There are not enough players. Keegan went to visit his relatives. We can’t play with just the three of us.”
Felicity continued to persuade her, “Bring Leighton over.
Then, the three of us can win some money from him. After all, he’s a superstar and must be very rich.”
Stella was taken aback.
‘That doesn’t sound like the right thing to do, does it?’
Then, she cleared her throat, “Wait a moment. I’ll ask him.”
On the first day, the box office for Motives for Murder was neither good nor bad. It grossed over seventy million, ranking fifth on the list.
Plenty of comedy and science fiction films premiered on the same day. In addition, domestic animated movies were pretty popular, too. As a suspense film, Motives for Murder was at a rather disadvantageous position on the joyous day.
After all, people would prefer to watch family-friendly movies and comedies during the holidays.
Despite that, Motives for Murder still made it to the trending searches on various online platforms.
Of course, it was all thanks to the “relationship” between Leighton and Nicole.
It had been a few days, but their respective fans were still arguing with each other. Their quarrels filled the review section of Motives for Murder, giving other audiences a bad impression of the movie. However, the next day, it unexpectedly reached a score of 8.9.
But that did not rule out some fans giving multiple ratings from different accounts to inflate the score.
However, it did not matter anymore.

public, the production team had completely given up.
They did not bother uploading any promotional materials on their accounts because the comment section would just be flooded with scoldings.
They did not have high expectations for the movie. They just hoped that they would not lose a lot of money.
The fans had caused such a big scene that even Daryl had found out about this “relationship”.
Stella still remembered when she video-called Cordelia and Daryl on New Year’s Day. When she was about to hang up, Daryl asked, “Stella, did they start dating when you were filming together?”
Stella played dumb, “I’m not sure. Maybe.”
Daryl’s frown deepened. Stella was worried that he might ask more questions and inadvertently discovered something. Then, he asked her a very perplexing question,” Is it really possible that a girl would be interested in him?”
