Stella chuckled, "Is Trevor really that unreasonable? Lately, he has been including your share whenever he sends
me something. So don't go around bad-mouthing him."
Keegan laughed at the sound of that, "The chairman election is next week. If I get chosen, I'll probably be busy for
the first half of the year. I don't want you to be disappointed with me for being unable to travel with you."
Stella lightly caressed his ear, "Why would I be disappointed with you?"
"I used to neglect family because of my job. I didn't even know when you fell ill."
'I didn't divorce you because you were too busy with work,' thought Stella. But upon some consideration, Keegan
indeed used to be overly immersed in work. He was not good at understanding people's emotions and did not like
explaining himself.
At that time, Stella was a full-time housewife, and being alone for too long led to overthinking. This led to various
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtmisunderstandings, which snowballed into their separation.
Keegan often reflected on himself. He believed being too engrossed in work was one of the root causes of their
problems.
Stella murmured, "The election is important. I'm a bit worried that you'd fall behind if you travel with me now."
"Relax. When have you ever heard about high achievers performing poorly in crucial situations?" said Keegan.
His confidence rendered Stella speechless. Then, she said," Well, I haven't heard of that before. But I've also never
seen high achievers brag about themselves all the time."
Aldor, who was driving, could not help but speak up, "Mr. Kane has never boasted about himself in front of
outsiders. It's only when he's with you that he's like a peacock displaying its feathers in hopes that you can see his
beauty and appeal."
Keegan's face darkened when he heard Aider's description," Shut up!"
Stella could not help but burst into laughter. She suddenly thought of the viral video where a male peacock chased
after a female peacock and spread its feathers. It was likely that Aldor came across the same meme on the
internet.
They finally reached the airport not long after that exchange. Keegan gave Aldor some instructions before he left.
Then, he took Stella's hand and headed toward Solstice Shore while carrying their luggage.
Once they boarded the plane, Stella sent Trevor a message on WhatsApp. The text roughly stated that she would
be gone for two days and would return on the night of her birthday.
Trevor hurriedly contacted her, but the call could not get through because she had turned off her phone. He tried
Keegan's number, but it was also unreachable.
'Keegan must've taken her away again!' Trevor was annoyed for a moment but quickly let it go, knowing that he did
not have to worry for his sister's safety.
'It might be good that she isn't around for these two days,' he thought. Trevor knew Darcie would not let the fact
that Chris had been fired and might even face legal trouble slide.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm'She has many companies in Hustuabourg, and her family manages a lot of them. She'll definitely try to stir up
some trouble since Stella removed one of her henchmen.'
Just as Trevor was thinking about this, Wenham called him, telling him to come home. His intuition told him it had
something to do with Darcie, so he asked, "What's wrong, Dad?"
"Darcie's relatives are here. I need you to come and help me entertain them," Wenham replied.
'What does he mean by Darcie's relatives? I bet they're related to Chris.'
Wenham rarely interacted with Darcie's family. When he first married her, the Arnolds always boasted about her
being Mrs. Saun. They would also mention Freesia's short life.
Word got around quickly, and Wenham was furious. He almost got a divorce, but Eleanor fought hard to stop it. 2
The Arnolds rarely appeared in front of them after that incident. Even if they visited during holidays, Wenham was
extremely cold and asked Trevor to entertain them.
"You're still the same as before, Dad. Just find an excuse to leave. Say you're going fishing," joked Trevor.
Wenham grumbled irritably and said, "Don't you think I want to? They're literally kneeling at the door. I can't leave
with them blocking the exit."
