Lauren gently nudged her husband, âSince when did Keegan have a girlfriend?â
Mark was taken aback upon hearing that, âCome on. Heâs a respectable guy who accomplished quite a bit. Having a girlfriend is completely normal.â
âI was actually thinking of setting him up with Kayla,â Lauren said.
âWhat? Heâs undoubtedly outstanding, but heâs been through a divorce. I only have one daughter. I donât want her to marry a divorced man. Who knows what kind of trouble might arise in the future? Why not just let Wenhamâs daughter have him.â
Lauren hit him in the arms and scolded, âTimes are different, honey. Why do you still care about this?â
âWell, I do, and thatâs that. Donât go meddling and complicating things unnecessarily.â
Lauren was displeased, âI was just casually mentioning it, yet look at how you act. You make it seem like I donât care about our daughter. Only you can do whatâs best for her!â
Mark quickly reached over and took his wifeâs hand, whispering, âYou know Iâm not good with words.
Forgive me, darling.â
Lauren reluctantly accepted his apology and followed him, chatting with those who came.
After walking a distance with Keegan, Stella released his hand and whispered, âYou enjoy yourself. I have some business to attend to.â
Keegan stopped her and said, âWhat are you up to?â
âI want to see who the people around Ms. Wilson really are,â Stella said. Keegan hesitated, âWhatâs your plan?â
Stella leaned in, whispered a few words in his ear, then patted his shoulder, âIâm off.â With that, she walked away.
Keegan was worried and called Aldor over, âKeep an eye on her. If there are any slip-ups, cover for her.â
âMrs. Kane has quite the knack for schemes,â said Aldor.
Keegan glared at him, âGo.â
Aldor closed his mouth and did what he was told.
Kayla chatted with her friends for quite a while. As the banquet began, everyone became engrossed in their own activities. Kayla did not stay long and went to the balcony near the door to get some fresh air.
The balcony was small, with two glass doors separating it from the banquet hall. A curtain shielded the view between the two areas.
Without pulling back the curtain, a first-time visitor would not think a 6-foot wide balcony was hidden behind it.
Kayla stood at the balconyâs edge with a glass of wine, gazing at the crescent moon in the sky, a sense of loneliness enveloping her. She raised her glass and tilted it slightly. The red liquid flowed slowly, falling into the darkness.
âThatâs quite an expensive glass of wine you have there. Itâs easily a few hundred dollars per glass,â A female voice sounded from behind.
Kayla paused, turned her head, and glanced at the person, âWhy are you here? Coming to take credit?â
Stella chuckled softly, âMore or less. I need to make an effort with a big client like you, Ms. Wilson.â She went straight to the point, surprising Kayla.
This woman was different from those in the past who wanted to do business with her. They always approached her under the pretext of making friends, avoiding the topic of purchasing goods at the beginning. They would maintain the guise of friendship and only gradually reveal their true intentions as they grew closer.
