    Chapter 1408


    The Jewell family’s affair had finallye to an end, and what followed was the sentencing.


    Rainee’s birthday happened to be around that time, too. Ste nned to go to the cemetery alone to


    celebrate Rainee’s birthday quietly.


    However, Keegan was already waiting outside when she was about to leave after getting ready. He


    dressed formally in a ck suit without a tie, with a white flower tucked into its welt pocket.


    His suit coincidentally matched Ste’s ck outfit and white hat.


    He stretched his arm out and said softly, “Let me go with you.”


    “Aren’t you afraid she might hate you for not kneeling during the funeral?” Ste asked.


    Keegan nodded. “I am. That’s why I want to make amends quickly and reassure her that I’ll take good


    care of you.”


    Ste smiled.


    Then, she held Keegan’s hand and spoke gently. “My mom may be sharp-tongued, but she actually


    had a very soft heart. Just bring some of her favorite food and speak nicely to her. She’ll forgive you.”


    Keegan wrapped his arm around her waist and kissed her on


    the forehead. “Let’s go buy them then.”


    “Sure.”


    The two of them bought a lot of things. When they arrived at the cemetery with the flowers, Trevor was


    already there.


    Ste called out to him, “Trevor, why are you here?”


    Trevor turned around and replied with a smile, “I came to tell Ms. Spade that I’m taking you back to the


    Saun family. I feared she might miss you, so I figured I should let her know in advance.”


    He shifted his gaze to Keegan after saying that. He pursed his lips and added, “Are you here to take a


    bow again?”


    Keegan kept quiet.


    Ste grabbed Keegan’s arm and said, “He brought a lot of food here, and all of them are my moth…


    foster mother’s favorite.”


    Trevor nced at them and said nonchntly. “He never did anything for her when she was alive. She


    must be very happy to taste the food he brought now that she has passed away.”


    Ste kept quiet.

    She went forward and softly said as she grabbed Trevor’s sleeve. “Trevor,e with me. I have


    something to tell you.”


    “I’m still paying my respect to Ms. Spade. We can talkter,” Trevor replied.


    “I’ll have to postpone the banquet to announce my return to the Saun family if you don’te with me


    now.”


    Ste’s words left Trevor speechless.


    How dare she threaten me with that!’


    He red at Keegan and reluctantly let Ste pull him away. When they were about a hundred feet


    away from Keegan, Ste stopped and let go of Trevor’s hand.


    “Trevor, please understand that Keegan and I are together now.”


    Ste got straight to the point.


    Trevor’s eyelid twitched, pretended to be clueless, and said,” I already saw you twoing here


    together.”


    Ste did not give him a chance to y dumb. “What I meant was we’re in a rtionship now. It’s


    official, and we might get married.”


    The edge of Trevor’s mouth twitched, and he blurted out,” Did that scum trick you with his money and


    sweet words? Did he brainwash you? Or were you charmed by his face? Ste, if you like him for his


    looks, I can find someone else who looks just like him. Our family has a lot of money, and I can


    definitely afford to find a man younger, smarter, more vibrant, or even more caring than him!”


    Ste’s face darkened. “Trevor, I’m looking for a partner, not an escort.”


    Trevor glowered at her and said, “You fell for his cunning face, didn’t you? Besides his looks, what else


    does he have to offer?”
