    “Says the one who wasn’t even there,” Trevor grunted. The anger in his heart subsided after seeing


    that Keegan did not have aeback. He even tried to add more fuel to the fire by saying, “Marshall’s


    a reliable man. Not to mention, my grandparents like him. He’d be a much better candidate for


    marriage than you.”


    Keegan’s eyelids twitched at the sound of that. “Don’t you even… Ste doesn’t like him like that!”


    “She’s just saying that because you’re here. I bet she would fall for Marshall if you broke things off with


    her and let them spend one-on-one time together. What do you say?”


    Trevor’s suggestion did not provoke Keegan. “No,” the man said in the firmest tone.


    “You wimp!” Trevor berated him. As soon as he said that, he could hear Ste’s voiceing from the


    other line. “Why is Mr. Saun scolding you again?”


    Keegan looked up, and his tone immediately turned soft, “I don’t know… Maybe because he doesn’t


    like me…”


    Trevor was at a loss for words. ‘What an asshole!’ He thought. However, Trevor did not poke fun at


    Keegan anymore. Instead, he asked, “Ste, how are you? Why can’t I reach you on the phone?”


    “I’m fine. I was receiving too many messages and iing calls, so I turned it off. I’ve replied to


    Kaiden, though. Didn’t


    he tell you?”


    “He did, but I was still worried and had to hear you say it.”


    Steughed and said, “I’m not a weakling. But… I’m sorry for causing trouble to thepany again.”


    “It’s no trouble.” Trevor’s face darkened at the thought of the person who started the whole thing. “Get


    some rest. We’ll handle the public.”

    “Mr. Saun,” Ste called out. Trevor paused and asked,” What’s wrong?”


    Ste opened her mouth and hesitated for a moment. After a while, she said, “Nothing. I just wanted to


    say that you should get some rest.”


    Trevor smiled and said, “You too.”


    After hanging up the phone, Keegan gauged Ste’s expression and asked in a low voice, “Were you


    going to tell him about your n?”


    Ste nodded.


    “Why didn’t you tell him?”


    “I can’t. No matter what, Be is still the top actress in Elegant Media. My n is going topromise


    his interest.


    I just know he wouldn’t agree to it.”


    ‘He’d probably give you the moon and the stars if you ask for it. What’s a little loss of profit?’ thought


    Keegan. ‘But… the less people know about the n, the better. I mean, what if someone on Trevor’s


    side leaks it to the media?’


    Ste was a very responsible mentor for teaching Keegan how to cook even though she was injured.


    Keegan was confident in his skills, but Ste’s frantic voice filled the kitchen.


    “Are you throwing the fish into the pot or shooting hoops? Why are you standing so far away from the


    stove?”


    “Turn it over, turn it over! It’s going to burn! What are you doing?!”


    “Ahh! I told you to add water! What did you put in there?!”


    Ste could not help but ask a soul-crushing question at the end of the day, “How did you have the


    confidence to say that you’re a good learner?”


    Keegan stayed quiet. ‘Let’s just say that learning to cook and learning to do other things arepletely


    different.’


    Not long after, the fish stew was done. The dish was ced on the table, and the couple sat across


    from each other. Keegan grabbed adle and filled up a bowl of stew for Ste, but she politely pushed


    it toward him and said,” You’ve worked really hard cooking this. You first.”
