    Keegan lightly traced his fingers across Ste’s palm. She looked at him and saw his nonchnt face.


    Then, he gently pinched her fingers.


    Ste lowered her gaze and smiled.


    Trevor patted Jaylene lightly. “We’ve been here for a while. The journey was long, so I took everyone


    upstairs to rest beforeing down.”


    Jaylene looked at them and said politely, “Mr. Snyder, Ms. Thompson, thank you for attending my


    birthday celebration today.”


    She noticeably paused when her gaze fell on Keegan. Then, she continued softly, “Keegan, thank you


    foring.”


    Keegan could clearly sense a piercing gaze from his girlfriend on him as soon as Jaylene thanked him.


    He could not figure out why Jaylene had to thank him separately. Then, he replied tly, “Don’t mention


    it. I didn’t bring any expensive gift today anyway.”


    He felt the need to rify things before his girlfriend misunderstood anything. So, he purposely


    emphasized the word “expensive.”


    Jaylene smiled. “It’s the thought that counts.”


    Keegan was speechless.


    Jaylene finally shifted her gaze to Ste after talking to Keegan. Her smile faded a little as she greeted


    Ste politely, “Ms. Jewell, long time no see.”


    Trevor frowned. “Jaylene, just call Ste by her first name from now. Herst name will be changed


    back.”


    Trevor despised thest name “Jewell.” He would even feel better about it if Ste’sst name was


    “Kane.”


    Jaylene quickly apologized, “I’m sorry. I just thought I’d cause trouble by addressing you wrongly before


    the news is publicly announced.”


    Ste looked at her briefly and said tly, “Don’t worry about it. It’s just a form of address. Call me


    whatever you like, Ms. Saun.”


    Felicity murmured softly, “What a hypocrite!


    Although she was not loud, they stood close to each other. Jaylene could hear what she said.


    Her gaze darkened as she asked, “Ms. Thompson, what did you say?”


    Felicity kept quiet as she said to herself. Bitch, are you looking for problems? Are you sure you didn’t


    hear what I said?’


    Felicity was about to speak her thoughts out loud, but Vermont interrupted her.


    “She said how great! This ce has a history of over four hundred years. She’s just impressed.”


    This is from N?velDrama.Org.


    Then, he wrapped his arm around Felicity’s waist, “Baby, you’re overreacting. I’ll bring you to a fifteen-


    hundred-year- old hot spring next time. It’s more impressive than this.”


    Everybody kept quiet. They were all amazed by how quickwitted he was.


    Vermont brushed what Felicity said aside, and Jaylene led them into the crowd.


    Felicity pped Vermont’s hand that was wrapped around her waist and said, “You shouldn’t have


    stopped me! I wanted to give her a piece of my mind!


    “Did you hear what she said? Ms. Jewell? Everyone in her family knows about Ste’s real identity and


    that she’s just a counterfeit heiress of the Saun family. She’s outrageous!”


    Of course, Vermont knew what Jaylene was trying to do by addressing Ste as “Ms. Jewell’ too.


    However, he said to Felicity, “We can deal with thister. It’s her birthday today. How can we cause a


    scene here? Besides, Ste has not officially returned to the Saun family yet. Other people will


    probably me Ste if you were to start amotion now. How would you defend Ste if they call


    her petty and ill- mannered?”


    Felicity thought about what Vermont said and thought that he made sense too. However, she was still


    very angry. “I told you she was a hypocrite, but you just wouldn’t believe me!”


    Vermont consoled her, “I do now. You’re the all-knowing one, and I believe in everything you say.


    However, we’ve got to keep ourselvesposed on asions like these.


    Otherwise, you’re just going to embarrass your best friend.”
