Chapter 1833

Vermont was unconcerned. "Keegan is a grown man, not a fool. I'm sure Jaylene won't be able to snatch him away."

"Did you not see what happened at the banquet? She kept filling Keegan's glass. It's clear she has ill intentions," Felicity persisted.

Vermont giggled, "What? Are you worried she'll get him drunk and take advantage of him?"

Felicity glared at him and said, "Well, it's not entirely impossible, is it? What if Keegan gets drunk, loses his judgment, and does something inexplicable? Stella will never forgive him.."

Vermont laughed heartily. He held Felicity's hand and said, " Miss bandit, you're inexperienced in love. You don'tunderstand men well."

Felicity did not understand what he meant.

"Using alcohol as an excuse for inappropriate behavior is just a lame attempt by men with ulterior motives. If a man wants to misbehave, even a sip of vinegar can make him drunk. If he's not interested, no amount of alcohol will work. Judging from Keegan's character, he wouldn't stoop to such actions."

Felicity felt somewhat reassured, but as she listened to Vermont's knowledge of such tactics, she narrowed her eyes and questioned, "Do you often pretend to be drunk and engage in inappropriate activities?" Hearing that, Vermont chuckled. He kissed the back of Felicity's hand and looked at her tenderly. "While I'm no saint, I'll never stoop to such tasteless acts."

After a pause, he complained, "You, on the other hand, have such poor alcohol tolerance. I can't believe you got drunk and discussed art films with strangers you've just met."

Annoyed and embarrassed, Felicity slapped him on the head and said, "Shut your mouth!"

Vermont saw her angry expression, and his heart softened.

Just as he was about to say something, Keegan and Jaylene exited the elevator.

Felicity patted his arm and said, "Here they come. Watch, Jaylene is definitely going to take Keegan away in her car."

Vermont rubbed his chin. "Didn't he look fine when we left? How can he be drunk in just over ten minutes?"

"Did you forget how low Keegan's alcohol tolerance is? Stella said he gets dizzy after just one glass of white wine."

Felicity shook him and said, "Quick, think of a solution. Keegan's chastity is on the line!"

Vermont's eyelids twitched. "Why are you more concerned about his innocence than mine?"

Felicity scowled. "I'm safeguarding Stella's marriage."

"And how are you doing that?"

"Haven't you heard that celibacy is a man's best gift for his partner? With your track record, you should be grateful that I still care about you." Her response left Vermont speechless.

'Damn it!' Vermont's expression turned ugly. 'What has she been reading online these days?'

As expected, Jaylene did lead Keegan to her car.

Felicity egged Vermont on, "Go over there and ram into the back of her car!"

Vermont could not believe her. "Lady, that's against the law!"

"We're in an underground parking lot. There are no pedestrians around. What are you afraid of? Don't tell me you're worried about denting your car."
