However, Ste figured that she could not just brush Jaylene off after she asked for her help openly.
So, she nced at Jaylene’s clothes and picked a simple, light green dress.
“What about this? It’s not too formal or too casual.”
Jaylene took it and said, “You have great taste. Trevor gave this to me for my birthdayst year
because he knew I’m a fan of this designer’s clothes. He secretly noted my measurements and had it
custom-made without me knowing. I haven’t worn it much since I got it.”
Ste pursed her lips. She did not like hearing about what happened between Jaylene and Trevor or
Wenham back then.
It would make her think that if she had not been taken away all those years ago, she would be the one
spending the past twenty-plus years with her father and brother.
Whenever Wenham looked at her childhood photos, he would sigh, wishing he could hug the young,
adorable her.
Ste knew that Wenham still loved her as much as he did now. He just regretted not being there
during every moment of her growth.
Ste also felt sad that Wenham was already so old when she finally returned to her family. He lived
half of his life without her, and Ste did not know how many days he had
left to spend with her.
Whenever Ste thought about it, she would burn with hatred for the culprit who tore her family apart
years ago. 2
That was why she would feel so ufortable every time Jaylene talked about how Wenham or
Trevor treated her back then.
She could not care less about the materialistic things Jaylene received from her father and brother; she
only thought about the time she could have spent with them.Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join &

Ste did not want to stay in the dressing room any longer, so she said tly, “I’m leaving if there’s
nothing else.”

Jaylene put down the dress, saying, “Ste, I’ve always thought that if Keegan didn’t exist, we would be
very good friends.”
Ste stopped walking, “I’d never be your friend whether Keegan exists or not.”
Then, she smiled and shrugged, saying, “After all, why would sisters want to be each other’s friends?”
Jaylene paused.
At this time, Ste had already turned around and walked away.
Just as she turned her back on Jaylene, thetter’s smile disappeared.
Ste knew that if she were not Wenham’s daughter, Jaylene would never bother looking at her, let
alone be her
friend.
Although Ste had saved her life, Jaylene would always look at her condescendingly, thinking she was
superior because of her family background. 2
Jaylene was the kind of person who would change her behavior depending on who she was with.
Vermont did not lie to Felicity. After they were done with the game, he introduced her to the scriptwriter.
The scriptwriter was even more impressive than Vermont described. Not only did his scripts win
countless awards, but he was also highly sought after in the industry. He had earned so much money
that he opened a shop dedicated to murder mystery games for fun.
Vermont invited him to a meal, and Felicity had a great conversation with him. He gave her a lot of
inspiration, and she was delighted to learn from him.
She could not help but have a couple more drinks into the conversation. Then, she started feeling tipsy.
“Mr. Booker, why do award-winning arthouse films always add some sensual scenes? Can you tell me
why? I really
don’t understand. The suspense film that came out earlier this year was so good, but why didn’t it win
any award?”
Vermont’s eyelid twitched. He quickly reced the alcohol in Felicity’s hand with a cup of tea and
exined, “She’s had too much to drink.”
Felicity red at him, “What are you talking about? I’m perfectly sober!”
Vermont was speechless.
