Chapter 1146
Vermont was speechless after knowing that Richie had gone through his clothes and torn them up. 'That dog is
targeting me!'
*A mini scene.
On some random day, Keegan received a text from Stella while he was working. [HR is so expensive right now.]
[I think the prices are alright,] Keegan replied.
[It was cheaper last year.)
[Prices are increasing due to inflation, my dear.]
[But, it's over my budget.]
[Are you in need of HR?] Keegan asked.
[Yeah. I've been working too much lately, and I've been staying up late. I really need to treat myself,] Stella
responded.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtKeegan thought of how Stella had stayed up all night shooting a movie recently and how her dark circles were
getting worse. So, he texted, [I'll make some arrangements.]
[Thanks, honey. You're the best,] Stella replied.
Felicity gave her a thumbs up and said, "So, this is how you save your money..."
"I'm just giving him a chance to perform."
Felicity gave a knowing look and used the same tactic on Vermont.
Vermont responded in seconds. [The client had dropped off a couple of those at the office. I'll have them delivered
to your house later.]
Felicity continued to apply what she learned from Stella and said, [That's rather perfunctory of you. How could you
give me something someone else gifted you?]
Vermont's eyelids twitched when he received that text. 'Why does the way she talks sound so familiar? It doesn't
seem like something Miss Bandit would say. On the contrary, it sounds like Keegan's girl,'thought Vermont.
However, he still replied, [Be good. You're pregnant right now, so you can't use poor-quality items. We'll go to their
headquarters once you give birth, okay?]
Felicity immediately obeyed Vermont's words. Stella, who was at the side, shook her head and said, "You believe
him? He will use the fact that you'll be breastfeeding as an excuse after you give birth to deter you from getting
what you want. Hasn't he made enough empty promises?"
Vermont was frugal by nature. This was especially clear to Felicity after their marriage. He canceled all their annual
club cards except those used in the two usual spots where he often discussed business. Vermont loved collecting
sports cars but was forced to cut down on spending. Even when Felicity wanted a new vehicle, Vermont rejected
her idea on the grounds that she was pregnant and not in the
best condition to drive. He then assigned a driver to pick her up and drop her off whenever she needed to travel.
Felicity then thought about how Keegan had always fulfilled Stella's requests and felt that Vermont did not care
about her enough. 'I shouldn't have gotten together with a man that has so many ex-girlfriends,' she thought.
While Felicity was sulking, Vermont sent her a picture of a real estate purchase agreement. [Pick a date, Miss
Bandit.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWe're moving.]
Felicity looked at the address of the property and was stunned. [You bought the villa?!] she asked.
[I have to give you the best. Otherwise, your mom would think that I'm a good-for-nothing son-in-law and keeps
wanting you to go home.]
[Did you pay in full, or did you take out a loan?]
[I paid in full, of course. The interest rate at the bank is too high. I'm not letting them earn my money. I would have
bought it sooner if I had the cash.]
Felicity was immediately overwhelmed with emotion. 'No wonder he stopped buying sports cars. He was trying to
save up to buy us a house!'
Suddenly, Stella's phone rang. It was Aldor. "We're here, Mrs. Kane."
Stella opened the door, expecting a gift box from the skincare brand known as HR. She was stunned to see Aldor
and another man at the door. "Uh..." 1
"Let me introduce you to the top human resources manager in Rivera. He has an eye for details and is good at
recruiting people. He would definitely be able to make your work life easier, Mrs. Kane."
Stella's eyelids twitched violently, and Felicity's laughter was heard from behind. "Hahaha... I can't believe Keegan
thought you were talking about human resources! Ahahaha..."
Stella was at a loss for words.
