Chapter 2143
Ste shook her head.
She had asked Trevor about this before.
Jaylene’s full name used to be Jaylene Arnold. When Darcie first married Wenham, she did not have
Saun as herst name. Later, during a parentteacher meeting, Darcie fell ill and could not attend. So,
Wenham went on her behalf.
Wenham had never attended Jaylene''s parent-teacher meetings before. Her teachers did not know
him, so they had to find out their rtionship first. That was when the teachers found out that the father
and daughter had differentst names.
They only realized that Darcie had remarried then. Being in elementary school, the most talkative and
insensitive age, Jaylene''s identity as a stepdaughter quickly spread across the school.
She got upset and refused to go to school. She cried and asked Wenham why Trevor had the same
last name as him while hers was different. Everyone was saying that she was not Wenham’s daughter.
Wenham had always been a soft-hearted person. If Darcie had said it, he might not have agreed.
However, Jaylene was only seven or eight years old at that time. He just could not bear to see a little
child crying like that. So, he changed herst name.
After Ste exined the whole story, Felicity said, Tve always wondered why your dad could raise
Trevor as such a good person, yet Jaylene is nothing like him. It turns out she''s been like this since she
was little!
"How could she not know why she had a differentst name from them when she was already seven or
eight years old? I''m pretty sure that your stepmother taught her to do so!
"That is the only way she can enjoy the privilege of being the Saun family''s daughter and officially
be a part of the family as time goes by!"
Felicity was right. People who were not very close with the Saun family all thought that Jaylene was
Wenham''s biological daughter.
This misconception only ended when the Saun family held a party to wee Ste back.
Of course, it also had to do with Wenham introducing her to everyone they met.
Whenever they attended events together, he would introduce her to others, saying, "This is my
daughter, Ste Hall. She wants to bear her mother''sst name because she likes it."
And when someone mentioned Jaylene, he would say, "Jaylene is more like her mother, and Ste is
more like me. I mean, like father like daughter,
right?"
At first, Ste thought Wenham had said them unintentionally, but she changed her mind as this
happened more frequently.
Vermont lifted his gaze at Ste. "You managed to steal that big client from Darcie just like that? Could
it be that Keegan helped you?"
Keegan said tly, "No, I didn''t know about it at all."

Felicity thought to herself, ''What''s wrong with him? He didn''t do anything to help, yet he can speak so
confidently.''
Vermont did not believe it at all. Keegan was someone who would spend the whole day on set when
Ste was filming, and with something as big as this, he refused to believe that Keegan would sit back
and do nothing.
However, before he could say anything, Felicity elbowed him. "Why are you doubting her? Ste is the
best; she can do anything!"
Vermont rubbed his stomach with a painful expression. "Why did you hit me right after I ate?"
Felicity instantly felt a little bad. "I didn''t even hit you hard. Quit pretending." "It was hard enough to
knock me out." Vermont sighed as he continued," Can you please stop getting so physical with me?
Are we dating, or are we sparring partners?" "Fine, fine. I''ll stop it."
Felicity reached out to massage his stomach. "You''re so fragile."
Vermont was speechless.
Keegan tapped Ste under the table. She looked at him and followed his gaze, noticing a red mark
around Vermont''s neck.
She widened her gaze in shock. ''Wow! I can''t believe it! I always struggle to give Keegan a hickey, yet
Felicity just left a ring around Vermont''s neck! Her lung capacity is unbelievable!''
Vermont met Ste''s gaze and suggested tly, "You two have eaten a lot.
Why don''t you take a stroll downstairs to help with the digestion?"
