    Chapter 1318


    Jaylene suppressed her emotions and offered a gracious smile, “Mr. Snyder, I believe you might be


    overthinking things. Dancing with you is truly an honor.”


    Vermont smiled as he extended his hand and said, “Shall we?”


    “Is that Stinky Cucumber falling for that wolf?! What a mutt! He just can’t think straight when a pretty girl


    is around!” Felicity muttered angrily.


    This is from N?velDrama.Org.


    Ste whispered to Felicity’s ear, “He’s just dancing with her on Keegan’s behalf.”


    Felicity’s eyes widened in realization. “Is the wolf interested in Keegan?”


    “I think she has some feelings for him,” Ste confirmed.


    “I knew it!” Felicity huffed. “She did have her eyes set on someone when she yed that handkerchief


    game!”


    Keegan approached the two women in the middle of their conversation.


    “Wanna dance?” He asked Ste.


    Ste nced at him and said, “Aren’t you afraid I’ll step on your toes?”


    Keegan chuckled softly, his voice a low murmur, “I’ll match your rhythm.”


    Ste gave him a sidelong nce and slightly raised her hand. Keegan then gracefully led her onto the


    dance floor. As his hand settled on her waist, Ste could not help but ask, “Do you still think I’m


    making things up?”


    Keeganughed and leaned close to her ear as he said, “Not at all, honey.”


    “So, how do you feel?” Ste teased.


    Keegan seemed clueless. “How do I feel about..?”


    “About a wealthy and well-sought-after heiress having feelings for you,” Ste continued.


    “Honestly, it’s not that great. Even if we hadn’t reconciled, she should’ve been more discreet with it,


    given our connection,” Keegan stated.


    In Keegan’s perspective, Jaylene and Ste were practically sisters due to their ties to the Saun family,


    despite theck of blood rtion. Having been married to Ste, Keegan viewed Jaylene’s interest in


    him as inappropriate.


    He understood she could not necessarily control her emotions but expected her to have morals. Hence,


    Keegan found it disturbing that Jaylene had a crush on him.


    Ste was satisfied with his response. “It’s just a dance. You could’ve taken her up on it. Isn’t it a little


    unfair to Vermont that you added him into the equation?” She continued.


    Keegan knew Ste was only acting fine with it because he had already rejected Jaylene. ‘I would be in


    for quite a ride the whole day… No, the whole month if I danced with her.’


    “It doesn’t matter as long as you’re happy. I can’t cater to everyone’s emotions,” he responded.


    Ste was d to hear that.


    Meanwhile, Vermont led Jaylene in a slow dance on the other side of the room. However, Jaylene’s


    gaze asionally wandered off.


    Vermont followed her line of sight and saw Keegan conversing with Ste. Keegan’s demeanor was


    warm, and his eyes radiated happiness. On the other hand, Jaylene looked disappointed and bitter.


    “Finding the dance with me boring, Ms. Saun?” Vermont asked.


    Jaylene snapped back to reality and looked at him. “No. I just feel a little stressed out since you have a


    girlfriend, Mr. Snyder.”


    Vermont smiled and said, “It’s just a dance. I’m sure my partner wouldn’t mind. If you’re so concerned


    about me being in a rtionship, you should’ve thrown the handkerchief slightly off-center, Ms. Saun.


    After all, Keegan and I both have partners.”


    Jaylene paused and asked, “I’m afraid I don’t understand.”


    “Take a look at Keegan. Does he appear single to you?” Vermont continued.
