    ‘I can’t believe it!’


    Ste was still worried that Keegan’s acting would be unnatural and too obvious to trick them.


    It turned out that her concern waspletely unnecessary, as she saw how effortlessly Keegan said


    that.


    The serious and calm look on his face was so convincing that even Ste herself was going to fall for


    his lies.


    Albert got interested as soon as he heard what Keegan said. However, he remained skeptical.


    ’Is that even possible?”


    Keegan said, “Our technology is so advanced now that gene engineering and gene medication are very


    normalized. So, why would it be impossible to do that?’


    Albert immediately got tempted. “C-Could you send me her contact, then?”


    Keegan replied, “Of course. Just mention my name when you call her.”


    Albert was extremely grateful, but he was filled with deep regret when he saw how well Ste and


    Keegan looked together.


    However, he could not spare more time to chat with them anymore, so he said to Ste, ’Ste, my


    words always stand. It’s not easy for a girl like you to earn a living out there. The Jewell family’s door


    will always be open for you if you ever feel likeing back.”


    Ste’s eyes twitched, but she remained silent.


    Albert finally acted like a father as he said to Keegan, “Mr. Kane, please take care of Ste for me.”


    ’Sure,” Keegan responded. Then, Albert walked away hurriedly, and of course, taking Xenia with him.


    Steughed out loud after they went out of their sight. “Your lie is ridiculous! How could you choose


    the gender of a baby? Aren’t you worried that he’ll see through your lie?”


    Keegan shrugged his shoulders. “I didn’t explicitly tell him that it’s possible. He could be just unlucky if


    things didn’t work out for him. How brilliant was that, huh?”


    He held her finger as he spoke. “Let’s go. The show’s over. I’ll take you home now.”


    Ste grabbed his hand and openly held it.

    Aldor had been waiting in the car for them. He started the car as soon as they got in.


    ‘Mr. Kane, I got what you asked for. They’re on the seat.”


    Aldor said while driving.


    ’Okay,” Keegan said as he picked up the file from the passenger seat. He scanned it before shifting his


    gaze to Ste. He was about to say


    something, but he saw Ste texting someone on WhatsApp while typing nonstop.


    Keegan put on his sses, and his face turned red with anger.


    Ste was going back and forth with a person named “Fifty Million” on WhatsApp.


    Keegan knew that the person could only be Marshall.


    He felt even worse when he thought that the fifty million originated from the money she had to pay for


    filing the divorce against him back then.


    “Who are you talking to?”


    She suddenly heard Keegan speaking. His breath was so close to her that she was startled.


    Ste pushed him away and said, “Don’t speak so close to my ear.” Then, she added, “Marshall said


    that Duncan’s wife is safe now, and their baby is fine too. He just texted me to keep me updated.”


    Keegan said, “And, it takes him so many messages just to tell you that?”
