Chapter 1917
Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted
Of course, Vermont knew exactly what Erick was thinking. He did not actually mean what he said.
Before Erick was promoted, he had dealings with a lot of businessmen. Vermont had eaten with him a few times and knew what kind of person he was.
family, his career would only become better and better with how powerful the Vermont paused and silently glanced at Keegan. Then, he cleared his throat and said, âI also heard that a lady in their social circle paired them up.â
Stella noticed his subtle actions and was shocked.
Felicity, being more straightforward, immediately said, âWho is that heartless person?â
Vermont responded, âI donât know who exactly, but she has a pretty good relationship with Mrs.
Chapman.â âThis is clearly a trap. And, they call that a good relationship? If someone were to introduce my daughter to a person like that, Iâd curse their entire family to death!â
Vermont leaned over and said, âCount me in. When do you want to get a daughter, then?â âShut up!â
They continued to bicker in the car, and the atmosphere felt relaxed.
When they arrived at their destination and got off the car, Felicity suddenly grabbed Stella and whispered, âStella, when did your butt get so big? Have you been working out?â
Stella was speechless.
She touched her butt and said, âIs it that obvious?â
Felicity widened her gaze. âDamn it, Stella. Youâre pregnant. Why did you go for a workout? Are you crazy?â âYouâre the one thatâs crazy!â Stella pulled Felicityâs hand and placed it on her butt.
Felicity squeezed it and was very surprised. âWhatâs that?â
Stella smiled. âA fall protection device.â
As she spoke, she let Felicity touch her elbows and knees, which were all covered with thick protective pads.
She was wearing wide-leg pants, a casual white shirt, and a blue coat. She hid everything she wore underneath, and they were barely noticeable.
Felicity was puzzled. âWhy are you wearing these things?â Stella replied, âThere are a lot of people here. I donât want any accidents to happen.â
Felicity could not figure out what could possibly happen to her when Keegan was already treating her like a treasure.
However, Stella always had her reasons for doing things. So, even though she found it strange, she did not ask any further.
Stella was still thinking about Auroraâs strange behavior from yesterday.
In fact, Stella had no intention of attending this wedding at first, but Olivia told her that something interesting was going to happen.
Stella, being the nosy person she had always been, immediately agreed.
As for what was going to happen, Stella could already guess it.
Auroraâs unusual behavior reminded her of Dahlia for some reason.
Dahlia was undoubtedly going to attend such a big event in Oliviaâs life.
So, Stella figured that she should take some precautions after hearing Auroraâs âadviceâ.
The wedding was held in their own hotel, Regal Banquets. The last time there was such a grand occasion was when the Sauns welcomed Stella back into the family.
After that banquet, Olivia invested heavily in renovating the hall. Now, it was almost twice as large as before, and the decorations were even more luxurious.
On that day, Olivia was busy getting her makeup done and coordinating the emcees. So, they were ushered in by Oliviaâs second daughter, Ruby Chapman.
