    Ste’s expression immediately changed. “You useless thing! My average cost has been raised to six


    dors now! How can I show off my thriftiness to Keegan?”


    Keegan was speechless.


    He cleared his throat softly, and Ste stopped, quickly hiding the cup behind her back.


    Keegan looked at the broken pieces on the floor and suggested, “Why not just sit on the floor? I can


    still see them. It


    Ste froze.


    She angrily brought her hand from behind her back, ring at Keegan. “Why didn’t I hear youing


    up? Are you trying to scare me?”


    Keegan nced at the door, which had finally stopped swinging after he had pushed it, and remarked,


    “My bad, next time I’ll just tear the door down.”


    Hisment left Stepletely speechless. She cursed in her mind, ‘What an asshole!’


    Ignoring him, Ste grabbed another cup, determined to give it another try.


    Keegan approached and crouched down. “What are you doing?”


    “Isn’t it obvious? I’m drilling the cup.”


    Ste marked the bottom of the cup with a pen and turned on the electric drill again.


    “It’s going to break,” Keegan warned.


    Ste clenched her teeth. “Don’t jinx it, okay?”

    With determination, she drilled toward the marked spot again. As expected, it broke once more.


    “See, I told you it’d break,” Keegan remarked.


    Ste’s expression turned grim. “It’s all your fault!”


    Keegan appeared to smile, but the dim lighting made it hard for Ste to discern his expression.


    Instead, she heard Keegan exin, “You’re using the wrong drill bit and the wrong drilling mode.


    “The cold weather is making the ceramic brittle. If you keep going like this, you’ll probably break


    seventy percent of the cups here.”


    Upon hearing Keegan’s advice, Ste didn’t dare to continue drilling.


    “I followed the tutorials. It works fine in the videos.”


    Looking at the floor covered in ceramic pieces, Keegan asked, “Even after all these failed attempts, do


    you still trust that tutorial?”


    Ste kept quiet.


    Keegan grabbed a drill bit from the toolbox nearby, took the electric drill from Ste, and swapped


    Then, he soaked the cup in water for a while before drilling it at the marked spot.


    Ste held her breath, fearing the same oue, but Keegan managed to drill a round, smooth hole


    without any visible cracks.


    Initially impressed, Ste met Keegan’s teasing gaze and quickly looked away, clearing her throat. “You


    got lucky. I’ll be impressed if you can drill the rest without any mishaps.”


    For some reason, Keegan chuckled. Ste thought that Keegan would not help her with drilling the


    remaining cups. However, much to her surprise, Keegan proceeded to take a new cup and expertly


    drilled holes in each one, one after the other, without uttering a word.


    Each hole was drilled perfectly, much better than what she had done.


    Ste pursed her lips and said, “I’m impressed. Good job.”


    Keegan kept quiet as he thought to himself. ‘Does she think I don’t realize she’s trying to provoke me?’


    “Did you buy these cups just for nting flowers?”


    “Duh,” Ste added soil into the cups as she spoke, “They’re not for your use. How could a powerful


    CEO like yourself use such cheap cups?”


    She kept muttering, “You’ve been harping on about those ten- dor forks for two years.”


    Keegan was at loss for words.


    The weather was chilly, and Keegan noticed Ste’s finger had turned red. He gently brushed them and


    offered, “Show me how, I’ll take care of it for you.”


    Somewhat surprised, Ste agreed to his offer.


    Ste showed Keegan how to nt the flowers. Surprisingly, despite his skill in drilling holes, Keegan


    proved to be clumsy while nting. He almost knocked off all the leaves before finally managing to


    nt the flower in the cup.


    Ste observed the remaining three leaves, her lips trembling, and asked, “Does this look okay?”
