    Ste seethed with anger. “So, I’m supposed to pay you in the future if we have sex, huh?”


    Keegan let out a soft chuckle, his eyes gleaming with mischief. “No need forthat. Business is business,


    and pleasure is pleasure. Pleasing my girlfriend is my duty, and I’m willing to go to any lengths.”


    Ste couldn’t let hisment slide and decided tounch a personal attack. ‘But I didn’t feel pleased,


    though.”


    Keegan paused, then suddenly strode toward her. His expression was devoid of emotion, his steps


    steady, and hismanding presence filled the room.


    A hint of intimidation crept over Ste. However, surrendering was never an option for her. She


    straightened her posture and locked eyes with him, defiance emanating from her gaze. “What do you


    want?”


    Keegan swiftly bent down, lifting her onto the table. He parted her legs and positioned himself in front


    of her, one hand gripping her waist and the other firmly nted on the table, ensnaring her within his


    grasp.


    Ste was startled by this sudden move, only then realizing how suggestive the position was. She


    thought to herself,1 Isn’t this some kind of table y? Geez, has Keegan been reading some


    inappropriate stuff? Why is he so full of surprises these days?’


    Just as she was about to voice her thoughts, Keegan leaned in and nted a kiss on her lips.


    Under the spell of Keegan’s seduction, Ste’s self-restraint melted away. She put on a brief show of


    resistance before sumbing to the allure of the kiss, her arms instinctively wrapping around Keegan’s


    waist. Her mind became a jumble of thoughts, recalling an online phrase that had been circting: “A


    man’s waist is not simply a waist, but a dangerous curve.”


    Caught up in the whirlwind of emotions, Ste heard Keegan’s deep voice resonate, “You’re only truly


    honest in moments like this.”


    She gazed at him through watery eyes, her expression mirroring confusion.


    Keegan pointed with his finger, signaling her to look down.

    Lowering her head, Ste discovered that her hands had unknowinglye to rest on his belt buckle.


    She had unknowingly contemted undoing it.


    Startled, she hastily withdrew her hands, a look of disbelief etched across her face.


    Nonchntly adjusting his attire, Keegan nced at the bewildered Ste, a smirk dancing on his lips.


    “I rather enjoy this side of your honesty,” he mused. After yfully ruffling her hair, he sauntered away,


    content.


    Left speechless, Ste found herself spending the next two days as a guest in Keegan’s opulent


    mansion, feeling akin to a canary in a gilded cage.


    Despite Elegant Media’s best efforts to rify the situation through a statement and apanying


    video footage, Ste’s ongoing silence inadvertently fueled the intensifying turmoil. The relentless


    onught of online condemnation from keyboard warriors painted Be as the ideal victim in the


    incident, adding to theplexity of the situation. As a result, the viewership of The Pce suffered a


    significant decline, plummeting below its previously impressive premiere ratings.


    Coincidentally, on that very same day, a social media channel leaked the news that Be Young, the


    central figure in the controversy, had secured the coveted role of the leading actress in the highly


    anticipated New Year blockbuster drama, Twinkling Lights. This revtion was followed by both the


    official social media page of Twinkling Lights and the director themselves promptly extending their


    virtual embrace to Be by bing her followers.


    Be’s devoted fans erupted in joyous celebration as the news broke, especially since there had been


    persistent rumors suggesting that Nicole Aspen was a strong contender for the female lead in Twinkling


    Lights prior to this revtion.
