Chapter 1745


    Jaylene immediately said, “It’s orange chicken, one of my favorite dishes.


    Keegan, have you not tried it before?”


    Keegan said, “It doesn’t sound like something I’d normally eat,” he paused before continuing, “I wouldn’t


    mind giving it a try.”


    Jaylene thought Keegan was trying it for her, so she was overjoyed and quickly served the dish to him.


    The maid who was supposed to serve the chickpea sd to Keegan moved the dish to Ste’s side.


    Ste momentarily paused and immediately scooped some of that onto her te.


    Next, Keegan told Jaylene to get him all the heavy dishes and did not eat any of the vegetables at all.


    And the maid who was supposed to serve him the vegetables went to Ste’s side.


    It did not seem like a coincidence.


    After a short while, Ste was already full.


    Wenham could not hold himself back anymore and said,” There are so many other dishes on the table.


    Why are you only eating the meat?”


    His precious daughter had not eaten a bite of her favorite dishes, yet Keegan was feasting like a king,


    choosing only the dishes he wanted to eat.


    Darcie noticed what was happening and chimed in, “Jaylene, mind your manners.”


    Jaylene’s face blushed with embarrassment. She simply wanted to please Keegan and did not think


    much about it.Content from N?velDr(a)ma.Org.


    At this moment, Keegan finally spoke, as if defending Jaylene, “Jaylene, you don’t have to keep helping


    me. I can get the food I want myself. You should eat more. You’ve lost so much weighttely.”


    Jaylene’s heart melted, “Thank you, Keegan.”


    Ste kept quiet.


    Perhaps Keegan used to put all his attention on herself and did not really have any interactions with


    Jaylene, so she did not really notice anything.


    However, now that she looked at how Jaylene reacted to what Keegan said, she realized that Jaylene


    was truly obsessed with Keegan.


    Keegan did not even serve her any food, but she was already moved just because he told her she


    should eat more.


    Ste figured that if Keegan served her something, she would preserve it and put it in a box. She could


    feel that Jaylene’s affection for Keegan was more than just admiration.


    And as for Keegan…


    Ste turned to him.


    ‘Every time the maid was about to serve him something I wanted to eat, he would ask Jaylene to serve


    him some other dishes instead. What are the odds of that happening coincidentally?’ As Ste thought


    about that, she suddenly stood up with a bowl in her hand, “Dad, I’m going to the kitchen to get some


    soup. Do you want some?”


    “Just sit down. Sandra will get it for you.”


    Ste replied with a smile, “Sandra’s eating now, too. I’ll just do it myself.


    There’s no need to trouble her.”


    Marshall put down his utensils, ‘Til get it for you.”


    “You’re our guest. How could we let you do that?”


    Seeing this, Wenham said, “Be careful then. Don’t hurt yourself.”


    “Okay,” Ste responded and went to the kitchen.


    The soup was very hot, so Ste only filled half a bowl. Then, she opened the tap and added half a bowl


    of water to cool it down before going out with it.


    As she walked past Keegan, her hand suddenly slipped, spilling the bowl of soup directly onto his back.


    Before Keegan could even react, Jaylene was already screaming in fright.


    As she anxiously wiped the soup off Keegan’s back, she could not help but me Ste, “Why are you


    so careless? Keegan’s wound hasn’t fully recovered yet. Are you trying to kill him with this bowl of boiling


    hot soup?”


    Wenham instantly got upset, “What are you saying? Ste couldn’t have done it on purpose, right?


    There’s some water on Ste’s hand, too. It was clearly an ident!”


    Ste was taken aback.


    She was surprised that her father blindly believed her and even spontaneously came up with an excuse


    to defend her.


    So, she yed along with Wenham and said cluelessly, “I’m sorry. I wasn’t paying attention…”


    Jaylene looked aggrieved after Wenham scolded her. Her gaze toward Ste was filled with


    dissatisfaction and resentment.


    Meanwhile, Darcie seemed slightly displeased with Wenham’s reaction, too, but she kept it to herself.


    Instead, she told Jaylene, “Jaylene, take Keegan to get changed.”


    “Keegan is Ste’s fiance. How can you ask an unmarried girl like Jaylene to get him changed?”


    Wenham’s mind turned unusually sharp, and he said to Ste, “Ste, take Keegan to Trevor’s room and


    give him Trevor’s clothes.”
