    Wenham’s expression suddenly turned grim, as he was oblivious to the mastermind of the incident.


    Keegan looked toward Ste, but her poker face remained and she did not look back. She was waiting


    to see how Keegan would cover for Aurora. Sure enough, Keegan responded without wasting another


    second. “Uncle Wenham, this matter was truly caused by Aurora. The fault is on our part for not


    disciplining her. I’ll make sure she personallyes and apologize for the trouble she caused.”


    Ste was astonished. She was hoping that Keegan would stand up for Aurora. She did not expect he


    would admit Aurora’s wrongdoing so straightforwardly. ‘Is he trying to feint ignorance?’ she thought.


    Since Keegan had apologized, Wenham did not try to shame Keegan in front of everyone anymore. He


    said with a frown, “Aurora is too disrespectful. Jaylene’s issue aside, she shouldn’t have locked Ms.


    Jewell in thedies’ room just because they were at odds with each other. How was she even brought


    up?”


    Keegan scowled and said, “Our family has given too much leeway to her.”


    Darcie, realizing that the conversation became stiff, warmly said, “Let bygone be bygones. Let’s talk


    about something happy.”


    Ste looked at Darcie in surprise. ‘From how Trevor and Jaylene called Darcie, Jaylene should be


    Darcie’s biological daughter. The Saun family patriarch and heir treated Jaylene like a treasure. On the


    other hand, her mother is quite open-hearted. Despite that, one word from Darcie is enough for


    Wenham to drop the case with thetter grunting “Outrageous”.’


    Ste was slightly disappointed that her provocation had failed but was d to know that the Saun


    family was quite cultured. If the roles were reversed, she would have already sought vengeance. She


    lifted her ss and said to Jaylene, “Ms. Saun, you should use an alternative and not push yourself too


    hard with the alcohol. Here’s a toast to you.” She downed the ss as she finished speaking.

    “I like your straightforward attitude, Ms. Jewell.” Trevor smiled and poured Ste another ss. “This


    ss is for the sessful signing of the contract.”


    Ste did not reject and reciprocated Trevor’s toast. Trevor, who was surprised to find out that Ste


    could hold her ground even after two sses of white wine, poured her another ss. Without waiting


    for her response, Keegan interjected. “I’ll drink to you in her stead. She’s a light drinker.”


    Ste was bbergasted. ‘He can’t even handle two sses worth of wine, yet he dares to say I can’t


    handle alcohol?!’


    Not waiting for her to speak up, Trevor interjected. “If it’s toasting between men, we’ll use the mug


    instead.” Picking up the mug as he finished speaking, he poured Keegan a mugful of white wine and


    said, “Here’s to our reunion.”


    Keegan’s eye twitched from seeing the white wine in front of him.


    Ste frowned. Aren’t Trevor and Keegan friends? Why is he toasting to Keegan as if he hates him?


    Don’t tell me it’s because Keegan introduced to him a girlfriend.


    Will Keegan ever get up if he drinks the wine?’


    Ste lowered her eyes, and her fingers slowly stroked the chopsticks, not uttering a sound. Wenham


    immediately brought up his own mug. “Here, let me toast to you as well.”
