Chapter 1094

[What a shitty company. No one would know about you if it wasn’t for Bella. Is this how you treat your main actors?]

[Why don’t you have Stella come out and make a statement as justice for Bella, instead of just trying to take down the trending searches?!]

[Don’t be mistaken, people. This is an intentional assault. It’s a case of murder and not something an apology can fix.)

Not only did Bella’s fans leave mean comments on the official page of The Palace, but they also went on IMDb to give the show a one-star rating. The film initially received a rating of 8.9 stars, dropping to 8.1 stars overnight and still decreasing by the minute. The ratings for the latest episode releases were also affected to a certain degree. In a way, Bella’s goal was considered halfway done.

“Stop looking at the comments.” Keegan took Stella’s phone away from her and said in a low voice, “Go to bed.”

Stella rolled over and curled up in his arms as she whispered, “What do you want to eat tomorrow? I’ll make it for you.”

Keegan was confused. “Did those comments do something to your brain?”

Stella hit his arm and said, turning her back toward him, “I felt sorry because you’re doing so much for me, yet you don’t appreciate my efforts. Forget it. I’m not cooking anymore.”

Keegan moved closer and hugged Stella from behind as he said, “You can cook whatever you want if you’re bored. I’ll eat anything you make.”

“How about a seafood stew? Great-grandpa taught me how to make it last time, and it tastes so good.

I’ll also grill up a steak on the side. How does that sound?”

Keegan’s guts churned as soon as he heard her mention seafood stew. “How about something else?”

he asked in a low voice. Stella knew what he was thinking at that moment. Everyone except for Keegan was fine after eating the seafood stew the last time they cooked it. He had to go on a toilet run multiple times that night.

“I think the crabs weren’t fresh enough. This time, I’ll buy fresh ones at the supermarket. I’m sure you won’t get diarrhea,” Stella chuckled.

“Alright,” Keegan said reluctantly. ‘It would be insensitive to be picky right now since she’d already offered to make me something,’ he thought as Stella leaned into his arms and fell asleep shortly after.

At the Hall residence, Mr. Hall Sr. was excited to meet his granddaughter, but he became anxious when he got the news that she would not be coming that day. “What happened? Doesn’t she want to meet us?” Mrs. Hall Sr. asked apprehensively.

“I told you not to rush things with her. Now look at what you have done. You scared her,” said Mr. Hall Sr.

“It’s not that, grandpa. Something came up at work, and she couldn’t come,” Trevor said, not intending to tell the old man what had actually happened to Stella. It was hard for him to explain everything since the old couple knew little about the internet. ‘There’s no need for them to worry,’ he thought.

“Aren’t you her boss? Don’t you arrange all her work? Just push things off.”

“It’s a sudden request from the crew. I have no control over it. Don’t worry. You will meet her sooner or later since the two of you are here. There’s no need to hurry,” Trevor lied.

Mr. Hall Sr. was not happy with his answer. “How can we relax when it’s been more than 20 years?!”

“It’s okay, dear. Young people tend to focus on their careers. Let’s try to be more understanding,” said Mrs. Hall Sr.

Trevor breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Mrs. Hall Sr. was being reasonable. That was when she suddenly said, “If she can’t come to us, Trevor, we can go to her. Where’s Stella filming? You can take us there tomorrow.”
