Keegan nodded. "We can't always be passive like this. I've got to eventually figure out why Marshall hates me. If we don't solve the problem from the root, he'll never stop."

Paranoia was one of Marshall's major symptoms of his dissociative disorder.

Stella gladly took on this task.

Then, a message popped up in the "Thick as Thieves" group chat.

Vermont glanced at it. When he realized that it was from Stella, he snorted, not bothering to read it.

He had not forgotten how this woman had previously encouraged him to trick Felicity into marrying him.

'What a hypocrite!' he thought to himself.

However, he still saw the message despite not opening it.

After a while, Felicity came out of her room and approached him with her phone. "Stinky Cucumber, Stella and Keegan are fighting!" "Oh," Vermont responded indifferently. "They do that very often, don't they? It's nothing surprising. You've been asking her to break up with him, yet they're still inseparable.

Just let them be." "It's different this time!" Felicity sat next to Vermont and said to him, "Stella is pregnant, and her preference for food has changed. Last night, she wanted to eat some pelmeni. She asked Keegan to go out and buy her some, but he refused and lied to her, saying the shop was closed.

"Then, this morning, Coco told Keegan that she wanted to eat some Boova Shenkel. So, he drove thirty miles just to buy them for her without complaining. After Stella found out, she started arguing with him. "Keegan said she was being unreasonable by being so calculative with a child. Stella got so angry that she's been crying since."

Vermont paused, "I-Is she that fragile?"

Based on his understanding of Stella, if Keegan had not bought her the food she wanted, she would have beaten him up instead of sitting there crying.

'It's impossible that Stella would anger herself for something like this. What evil plan does she have in mind this time?' Vermont wondered to himself.

Then he said, "Why are you telling me this? I'm not the one who made her cry. Go talk to Keegan."

Felicity playfully slapped him. "Why are you so heartless? What I mean is, don't you think Keegan is treating Coco a little too well? He gives her whatever she wants. Don't you remember that Coco is why Keegan got tangled up with Bella Young?

"He even kept it from Stella for so many years. Coco isn't even his child, so why would he keep her hidden for so long?"

Vermont responded, "Didn't Keegan say that Coco is his late classmate's child, and he didn't want to talk too much about it?" "Nonsense! Are you getting senile? How can you be so naive? Doesn't his classmate have a family of his own? Why does Keegan need to take care of Coco?"

Vermont was not interested to know whose daughter Coco was. If she was Keegan's, he might have something to gossip about, but she was not.

Then, Vermont said, "Why do you care whose daughter she is? It's not our business as long as she's not Keegan's." "We can't be too sure, can we?" Felicity said mysteriously, "Stella told me something else too. She said when Marshall and Willow had their accident, they actually crashed into her and Ms. Spade's car.

"The birth date on Coco's birth certificate is the day of that accident. Also, she mentioned that when she was rescued, she saw a pregnant woman being taken out of the taxi they collided with."

Vermont paused. "How does she know it was Marshall's car they crashed with?" "She hired a private detective. Ms. Spade's car crashed into a taxi carrying a young couple. The man was seriously injured, but the woman died with a baby inside of her. However, the private detective refused to investigate any further, no matter how much she offered to pay him.

"Isn't it obvious? He must have found someone he couldn't afford to cross. If Ms. Spade's car really crashed into Marshall and Willow, wouldn't it all make sense?"

Vermont was not entirely convinced. "Do you have any evidence?"

Felicity said, "Didn't I tell you how Stella fell for Keegan?"

Vermont replied in a serious tone, "Is it because of his body or his money?"
