Chapter 1012
Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted
Wenhamâs face darkened. âWhen did I say anything about canceling her jobs? Am I not asking for her opinions now?â
âOh,â Keegan said before asking Stella, âDo you want to go?â
Obviously, Stella did not feel like participating in other peopleâs family gatherings, so she said tactfully, âUncle Wenham, Iâll not be attending if itâs a family gathering. Your family is not going to feel comfortable with an outsider among them too. Iâll visit Trevorâs grandparents some other time if they really want to see me.â
Wenham did not like that idea at all. So, he said, âItâs not really a family gathering. Weâre just going to have a meal together. Itâs nothing formal.â
Stella replied softly, âDidnât you say that itâs a family gathering and rejected Keegan from going?â
Wenham kept quiet for moment before he replied, âI⦠I just thought that heâd be too busy to come.â
Keegan immediately chimed in, âIâve not been busy lately. I can free up my schedule when Trevorâs grandparents are here.â
Wenham pursed his lips and said reluctantly, âCome along if you really have the time then.â
âThanks for the invitation, Uncle Wenham.â Keegan said.
Even though Wenham was unhappy about Keegan tagging along, it did not dampen his joy upon seeing Stella. With Luna as their common topic, Wenham was not worried that he would have nothing to talk about with Stella. He could not wait to find out everything about Stella in the past twenty-plus years, including her likes and dislikes, the schools she went to, what kind of hardships she suffered, and whether her parents treated her wellâ¦
However, none of these questions seemed to matter anymore as soon as he saw the bright smile on Stellaâs face.
It was the greatest blessing from above the fact that she could stand in front of him in good health. As for her hardships and sufferings in the past, Wenham was going to make up for them in the future.
But the things he talked about with Stella mainly revolved around Luna.
With his own explorations and Keeganâs guidance, Stella knew literally everything about Luna, and she could explain each of its features in detail.
Wenhamâs affection for Stella grew even stronger when he saw how confidently she spoke about Luna.
Stella began asking more about Wenhamâs habits and personal preferences after talking about Luna.
She asked everything from what time Wenham would get out of bed and sleep at night to what time he would usually exercise and eat.
Wenham was surprised, but he answered all her questions anyway, wanting to communicate more with his daughter.
Stella said, âAfter you feed all this information to Luna, itâll be able to work as an alarm or even your personal assistant. I remember forgetting to bring a document with me after I left the house, and Luna sent it to me through remote scanning.â
Wenham saw how much she talked and immediately handed her the cup of water beside him.
Stella took a sip and asked, âUncle Wenham, what do you think of Luna?â
Wenhamâs mind was not on Luna, so he said offhandedly, âItâs great. Luna is actually a lot better than what Iâve seen previously.â
Stella put on a smile. âKeegan and his team put a lot of effort into developing Luna. Itâs probably more intelligent and advanced than its competitors in the global robotics industry.â
âOh, thatâs impressive.â
Wenham became a little uninterested when he heard her mentioning Keegan.
However, Stella was very enthusiastic as her eyes widened. âWould you like to place a pre-order for one unit then?â She asked.
Wenham was taken aback.
