Chapter 2231

Stella quickly filled Keegan in on the conversation.

Keegan was taken aback. "Heather? You have quite the imagination."

Even though these stories were fabricated, they were told so convincingly that they seemed real.

Stella added, "Willow didn't say anything before she died. We don't know why, but maybe he can replace out."

Pausing, Stella leaned in to whisper, "Actually, I've always suspected the Moore family's involvement-"

Keegan squeezed her hand, signaling her to keep quiet.

Stella hesitated, following Keegan's gaze to Luanna Saab-no, Lina Saab- walking hand in hand with Ricky Adam at the appreciation banquet.

Lina's makeup mirrored Luanna's, her eyes alluring and her features radiant. Dressed elegantly, she looked almost identical to when Stella saw her at the hospital.

They appeared together, their mannerisms intimate and familiar.

"Mr. Kane, congrats on the successful press conference," Ricky said, raising a cup to Keegan.

Stella suddenly noticed that Ricky, the addict, looked much better than he did at the wedding. His cheekbones were less sunken his eyes were sparkling a bit more, and though still thin, the suit made him presentable. No one would guess he was an addict.

Keegan raised his glass and clinked it with Ricky's. "Thank you."

Ricky glanced at Stella. Turning to Lina, he asked, "Aren't you two classmates? Why does Ms. Hall seem so distant? Are you not on good terms?"

Lina smiled. "We haven't kept in touch for years. I just didn't recognize her at first glance."

She then raised her glass to Stella. "Stella, it's been a while."

Stella raised her glass in return. "Long time no see. Could I have tea instead of water? I'm not feeling well today."

Lina nodded. "Of course.""

Ricky's gaze lingered on Lina's face before he turned to chat with Keegan.

Keegan responded, neither too friendly nor distant. He probably didn't like addicts like Ricky, but he had to maintain the Adam family's image.

After a short conversation, Ricky put his arm around Lina. "Do you like the Luna? If you do, I'll get you one."

Lina took out a cigarette, tapping it lightly on the box. She replied casually," You know what I want."

Before Ricky could reply, Keegan interjected, "Smoking isn't allowed here. Please go to the smoking area." Stella was speechless.

Was this the main point? This guy! She was eagerly anticipating some juicy gossip from the two.

Lina paused, then put the cigarette back. "Then I'll go outside. You two talk."

With that, she turned to leave. Ricky's gaze was melancholic as he followed her out.

"Why does this guy suddenly look so energetic? Could the rumors be true?"
