Chapter 2098
Ste could not help but wonder, ''Vermont is such a nosy person. How could he manage not to
immediately spread out such earth-shattering gossip upon hearing it? He actually guessed right away
that it was a set-up. How exactly does his mind work?''
At this point, Ste had no other choice but to resort to her ultimate move!
[Vermont, you know best about my rtionship with Felicity. Do you remember when you just got
together with her, I was the first to oppose it?]
Vermont replied: [You still have the nerve to bring it up now!]

Ste texted: [You had so many ex-girlfriends, and none of your rtionships with themsted long. I
only did that because I was afraid that you were only fooling around with Felicity. I didn''t want her to get
hurt.]
Vermont did not retort. Clearly, he thought what Ste said made sense.
She continued: [After we got to know each other better, I realized that you genuinely liked her. I didn''t
stop you two from dating, did I? When you were pretending to be impotent and lied to her, was it not
me who got a doctor to help you?
[I even had Keegan test the remedy for you. If I didn''t trust you this much, would I ever bother to help
you?]
Vermont sneered inwardly. He thought, ''You were just being a busybody and didn’t want to miss out on
the gossip, so you were being "kind-hearted. '' Besides, your remedy didn''t help me at all. I had a
nosebleed for several days because of it!''
However, when he realized that Ste got Keegan to try it out before rmending it to him, he felt a
lot better.
Then, he pursed his lips and replied: [Stop ying this mind game with me. What did you mean by my
mother-inw?]
[Florence knew about your "condition" and thought you were really impotent. So, she told Felicity that if
she wanted to marry you, she must get pregnant with your baby first. If you can''t, then she won''t
approve of the rtionship. She wants to find a man who can give Felicity a bunch of babies.]
Vermont was caught off guard by Ste''s text.
Suddenly, he felt like he was transported to a women-dominated world, where the standard of choosing
a husband was based solely on his fertility.
[Did you make something up just because you need my help with something?]
Ste replied truthfully: [I swear, if I''m lying to you now, I''ll never be able to earn a penny from now on!]
Vermont just kept quiet. That was undoubtedly a very malicious curse for money-minded people like
them.
Suddenly, he thought about Felicity''s recently strange behavior.
For example, the weather was not even warm yet, but she would wear shorts and a low-cut tank top
while they yed games in the living room. He did not even dare to look at her, afraid of getting
distracted.
However, when he told her to wear something thicker, she would say that the weather was hot. There
was no way she could possibly feel hot in the house when the temperature was only seventy
Fahrenheit.
Also, after taking a shower, Felicity began wearing nightgowns when all she used to wear was a set of
pajamas. They were made of silk, a material that did not match her usual style at all. Even her daily
outfits changed from hoodies and sweatpants to all sorts of miniskirts. Some were so short they
barely covered her thighs.
Vermont wondered if she had recently watched some inappropriate fashion gurus'' videos and that was
why she was dressed so strangely.
Now that he read Ste''s text, he could not help but think, ''Could she be... seducing me?''
Vermont''s eyelid twitched abruptly.
He had gotten too used to this non-sexual rtionship and failed to notice all those obvious hints.
He nced at Felicity, who was scrolling through her phone next to him. Then, he stood up and said, "I
need to use the bathroom."
"Okay," Felicity said. Then, she texted Ste: [Mission aplished.]
Ste paused and thought, ''Oops, I guess I gave myself away.''
Then, she replied: [Thanks, sweetheart.]
Felicity texted back: [Ste, my clothes have arrived.]
Ste was shocked as she said: [That''s quick!]
