Chapter 1182
Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted
Spencer frowned when he heard Stella ask him who he was. âDonât you remember me?â He asked in disbelief.
Vermont, Felicity, and Keegan were struck hard by those words.
After some time, Vermont was no longer shocked. Instead, he was waiting for everything to unfold. âSo Stella knows this man who has similar features as Keegan? Interestingâ¦â
He then looked at Keegan, who had slightly pursed lips and an indifferent expression, calmly staring at Stella. She felt so guilty for pretending not to know Spencer and did not dare to meet Keeganâs gaze.
Still, she was as steady as a rock. â You do look familiar, but Iâm afraid I donât remember. Care to refresh my memory?â
Spencer was silent. He looked at the woman before him and realized she had actually changed quite a bit since high school.
Her facial features were much more refined. âShe looks completely different from the girl who danced on stage during our schoolâs talent competition.â The only thing that remained unchanged was her unforgettably bright, beautiful eyes.
Though, Spencer knew what kind of mischievous person hid behind those seemingly harmless eyes.
He recalled the time Stella told him that she wanted to perform a magic trick and pull out a cute little animal. But to his surprise, she pulled out a rat instead.
Spencer stared at Stella for a few seconds and smiled. He looked up and said, âItâs fine if you donât remember. Let me introduce myself.â He held out his hand and continued, âHi. Iâm Spencer Graham, class of 2015 from Rivera High.â
Before Stella could say anything, Felicity chimed in, âRivera High? Stella, isnât that where you went?
And didnât we graduate in 2015 too?â
At that moment, Stella wanted to sew her best friendâs mouth shut. âCanât you see how upset Keegan is already? God!â
âOh, so youâre an alumnus. Itâs nice to meet you,â said Stella as she shook the tips of Spencerâs fingers and let go immediately. âI didnât know we had such a prestige member in the Rivera High alumni,â she continued.
Spencer touched his fingertips and put on a faint smile. His assistant then whispered something in his ear, and he nodded. âIâll go say hello to Mr.
Jewell and catch you later.â
âOh. Um. Thatâs fine. You donât have to come back. You can just go about your business,â Stella said, unclear whether Spencer heard her. The man then turned around and walked into the crowd with his assistant.
Stella felt relieved as she watched Spencer leave. She saw Keegan staring at her with no apparent expression and began to feel anxious.
Vermont quickly tried to gossip and asked, âStella, is Spencer one of your high school classmates?â
âYeah. I think so,â Stella replied.
âWhat do you mean you think so? Do you not remember him at all? I mean, itâs impossible to forget a face like that.â
Stella could feel Keeganâs stare becoming more intense as Vermont said that.
âI didnât have the time to look at men when I was in school, Vermont. I had so much homework to do back then!â
