Chapter 1287
Keegan was worried about being photographed. So, he had Aldor pick out a discreet Yostrainian
restaurant with good music. The restaurant was located on the top floor of the Empyrean Luxe, the
tallest building in Rivera. It was a rotating restaurant that allowed diners to enjoy a panoramic view of
the Cobalt River.
When Keegan and Ste rode the elevator, a kid identally stained Keegan’s shirt with their ice
cream cone. Once they reached the top floor, he told Ste she could wait for him at the restaurant.
Meanwhile, Keegan headed to the restroom to clean himself up.
Ste grabbed Keegan’s phone and made her way to the restaurant. While the staff was checking her
reservation, a familiar voice sounded behind her. “Let me scan the PayPal QR code real quick.”
Startled, Ste put on her hoodie.
“We have received your payment, sir. Thank you for dining with us, and have a good day.”
“You too. Which way to the restroom, by the way?” The voice asked in disdain.
With a warm tone, the staff said, “You may go left after exiting, and the restroom is straight ahead.”
“Great. Thanks.”
Ste only nced back once she no longer heard the voice. To her surprise, Spencer was standing
right behind her. He was leaning slightly forward and had his eyes fixed on her. Ste was shocked.
She nearly bumped into him when she turned around. She pushed him away and eximed, “Are you
out of your mind? Back off!”
Seemingly amused, Spencer smirked and said, “Why were you trying to avoid me, huh?”
Ste’s face remained expressionless. “I wasn’t avoiding you. Don’t tter yourself.”
“Then, what’s with the hood?”
“Can’t I put up my hood because I’m cold?” Ste replied.
Spencerughed at her response. He then grabbed her wrist and pulled her away.
“What are you doing? Let go!” Ste resisted.
Spencer gave her an icy look and said, “Say another word, and I’ll rip your mask off for everyone to see
your face.”
Ste immediately shut her mouth.
“I’d like to see you try,” Keegan’s cold voice interjected unexpectedly.
Hearing that, Spencer was taken aback. Meanwhile, Ste took the chance to break free from his grasp
and rushed to Keegan’s side. She wrapped her arms around his and red at Spencer.
Spencer did not say a thing.
Keegan was very pleased with Ste’s action. ‘Excellent. She knows exactly where her loyalty lies,’ he
thought.
After that, he stared at Spencer with an expressionless face and said, “Apologize.”
Spence’s expression turned cold. He pursed his lips and retorted, “Apologize? For what? For having a
chat with my ex -girlfriend? Don’t you think you’re overreacting, Mr. Kane?”
His words left Ste stunned.
‘This asshole is literally trying to add fuel to the fire! I knew he was still petty about the breakup. He
acted indifferent about it thest time we met only because there were many people at the wedding,’
thought Ste.
Spencer could not hold himself back now that they were not in a formal setting.
As expected, Keegan’s brows twitched involuntarily at the mention of the word “Ex-girlfriend”. He leered
at Spencer and said, “I can’t believe you threatened to reveal her identity just because she didn’t follow
your wishes. Where are your manners? Is this how the Grahams raised you?”
Spencer chuckled and said, “I don’t think how my family raised me has anything to do with you, Mr.
Kane.”
Keegan did not waste his time. He retrieved his phone from Ste and dialed Penn’s number. Then,
Penn’s voice sounded from the other end of the line. “Keegan, my boy, to what do I owe the pleasure of
this call?”
Keegan nced at the tense-looking man in front of him and casually said, “Mr. Graham, my sweet
friend here is currently being a pest toward my partner. It’s quite the predicament, I must say. Shouldn’t
he have already outgrown this phase at his age?”

Spencer was puzzled by Keegan’s words while Ste was amused. Damn, that’s brutal,’ she thought.
Keegan was able to humble her ex-boyfriend in a single sentence. Ste could feel how much Keegan
loved her.
Penn froze momentarily before cautiously asking, ‘Are you talking about Spencer?”
