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.
Keegan 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?]
[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.
