Vermont was speechless after knowing that Richie had gone through his clothes and torn them up.
‘That dog is targeting me!’

On some random day, Keegan received a text from Ste while he was working. [HR is so expensive
right now.]
[I think the prices are alright,] Keegan replied.
[It was cheaperst year.)
[Prices are increasing due to intion, my dear.]
[But, it’s over my budget.]
[Are you in need of HR?] Keegan asked.
[Yeah. I’ve been working too muchtely, and I’ve been staying upte. I really need to treat myself,]
Ste responded.
Keegan thought of how Ste had stayed up all night shooting a movie recently and how her dark
circles were getting worse. So, he texted, [I’ll make some arrangements.]
[Thanks, honey. You’re the best,] Ste replied.
Felicity gave her a thumbs up and said, “So, this is how you save your money…”
“I’m just giving him a chance to perform.”
Felicity gave a knowing look and used the same tactic on Vermont.
Vermont responded in seconds. [The client had dropped off a couple of those at the office. I’ll have
them delivered to your houseter.]
Felicity continued to apply what she learned from Ste and said, [That’s rather perfunctory of you.
How could you give me something someone else gifted you?]
Vermont’s eyelids twitched when he received that text. ‘Why does the way she talks sound so familiar?
It doesn’t seem like something Miss Bandit would say. On the contrary, it sounds like Keegan’s
girl,’thought Vermont.
However, he still replied, [Be good. You’re pregnant right now, so you can’t use poor-quality items. We’ll
go to their headquarters once you give birth, okay?]
Felicity immediately obeyed Vermont’s words. Ste, who was at the side, shook her head and said,
“You believe him? He will use the fact that you’ll be breastfeeding as an excuse after you give birth to
deter you from getting what you want. Hasn’t he made enough empty promises?”
Vermont was frugal by nature. This was especially clear to Felicity after their marriage. He canceled all
their annual club cards except those used in the two usual spots where he often discussed business.
Vermont loved collecting sports cars but was forced to cut down on spending. Even when Felicity
wanted a new vehicle, Vermont rejected her idea on the grounds that she was pregnant and not in the
best condition to drive. He then assigned a driver to pick her up and drop her off whenever she needed
to travel.
Felicity then thought about how Keegan had always fulfilled Ste’s requests and felt that Vermont did
not care about her enough. ‘I shouldn’t have gotten together with a man that has so many ex-
girlfriends,’ she thought.
While Felicity was sulking, Vermont sent her a picture of a real estate purchase agreement. [Pick a
date, Miss Bandit.We’re moving.]
Felicity looked at the address of the property and was stunned. [You bought the vi?!] she asked.
[I have to give you the best. Otherwise, your mom would think that I’m a good-for-nothing son-inw
and keeps wanting you to go home.]
[Did you pay in full, or did you take out a loan?]
[I paid in full, of course. The interest rate at the bank is too high. I’m not letting them earn my money. I
would have bought it sooner if I had the cash.]
Felicity was immediately overwhelmed with emotion. ‘No wonder he stopped buying sports cars. He
was trying to save up to buy us a house!’
Suddenly, Ste’s phone rang. It was Aldor. “We’re here, Mrs. Kane.”
Ste opened the door, expecting a gift box from the skincare brand known as HR. She was stunned to
see Aldor and another man at the door. “Uh…” 1
“Let me introduce you to the top human resources manager in Rivera. He has an eye for details and is
good at recruiting people. He would definitely be able to make your work life easier, Mrs. Kane.”
Ste’s eyelids twitched violently, and Felicity’sughter was heard from behind. “Hahaha… I can’t
believe Keegan thought you were talking about human resources! Ahahaha…”
Ste was at a loss for words.
