    Ste retorted, "Just cut Keegan some ck. You''re not just his uncle;


    you''re also his good friend. After you punched himst night, Keegan was upset all night and couldn''t


    sleep. The next day, he went to work with two ck eyes."


    As for dealing with Dad, she had other tricks up her sleeve.


    Trevor wasn''t entirely convinced. "Do I really have that much influence on him?" "Of course! You''ve


    grown up together. If you don''t trust him, imagine how he feels." Trevor fell silent for a moment. Just


    when Ste thought she had him, Trevor smirked and said, "Let him suffer then. If he thinks he can fool


    me, he needs a few more years of practice."


    Ste was rendered speechless.


    No wonder Keegan always called his brother a fox; his schemes were deep!


    With just one phone call from Darcie, Jaylene decided she didn''t want to pursue the issue with Dahlia


    any longer. It was easy to imagine how angry Darcie must be. The mother and daughter started


    arguing in the ward.


    Darcie''s face turned green. "Do you think Keegan will forgive you if you don''t pursue Dahlia? What kind


    of dream are you living in? He hasn''t shown up since you got into trouble. Do you still not understand


    where he stands?"


    Jaylene remained stubborn. "Keegan is in a difficult position, and all of this is Ste''s scheme. She''s


    the one pushing me to sue Dahlia. I won''t do as she wishes." "Even if it''s her scheme, Dahlia borrowed


    money from Ste. Why did you rush to give her money? Leave this matter to me; I''ll handle it myself."


    Before Jaylene could say anything else, there was a knock on the door.


    Darcieposed herself and walked over to open it. As soon as she saw who it was, her expression


    changed instantly.


    Jaylene tilted her head, only able to see a pair of dusty men''s shoes. She asked, "Mom, who''s there?"


    1 "No one. You rest, I''ll be back in a moment."


    With that, Darcie pushed the person at the door out and closed it.


    Felicity had finished the short y script she wrote for Ste and said she would send it over for her to


    review. Since there wasn''t much going on at noon, Ste booked a restaurant and arranged to meet


    Felicity and Vermont to discuss it in detail.


    The new productunch event for the Vinci Rivera Group was scheduled for next Monday. Keegan had


    been extremely busytely, so Ste thought she''d ask him what dishes he wanted to eat and help him


    order. But when Keegan heard they were going to discuss the script, he insisted oning. Ste went


    to pick him up.


    From afar, Ste saw Keeganing out of the building in a suit. He was apanied by several


    colleagues leaving work together. Although their suits were simr in style, Keegan had a way of


    standing out. As soon as he appeared, his superior facial features and tall figure made everyone else


    fade into the background.


    He was ridiculously handsome.


    Keegan was the kind of person who had hit the gic jackpot. He had inherited all the best traits from


    his parents. His father looked good in pictures, butpared to Keegan, there was still a big


    difference. It was hard to say who the twins would resemble more in the future. Keegan was


    handsome, but their family''s genes were unpredictable. Among their numerous descendants, Keegan


    was the only one with such extraordinary looks.


    Ste was lost in thought when the back door was opened. Keegan unbuttoned his suit and got in.


    Ste handed him some water. "Feeling tired?"


    Keegan shook his head, took a sip, and replied, "I''ve been checking the details of theunch event


    these days. It''s not too tiring, just a lot of small tasks. Will you being to the event?" "Of course,"


    Ste smiled and said, ''TH be there to cheer you on and bask in the glory of being your wife."


    Keegan was delighted, his eyes shining. "Then, I''ll save you a seat." "Great."


    Ste took out the orange and handed it to Keegan. "I brought this especially for you."


    Keegan was initially happy, but when he saw the orange, his smile faded. He calmly said, "I don''t want


    it."


    Ste was puzzled, "But don''t you love oranges?" Besides strawberries, Keegan''s favorite fruit was


    oranges. He particrly enjoyed sweet fruits, except for mangoes, as he was allergic to them.


    Keegan hesitated to say at first, but when pressed by Ste, he gritted his teeth and said, "You let your


    brother pick out the best one, and you leave me with the inferior one? Am I a garbage can? I don''t want


    leftovers from him!"
