Chapter 1740

In the past, Keegan might not have endured this injustice and stormed off.

However, possibly influenced by Jaylene, he remained surprisingly silent.He did not retort even as Wenham sarcastically teased him.

Stella couldn't bear to see Keegan being berated.

She cleared her throat to interrupt Wenham.

"Dad, put the wine away.Marshall has work this afternoon, so we won't be drinking today."

Wenham nodded, "Sure.Make sure Marshall feels welcomed.I'll be there shortly."

Stella agreed, and Wenham carried the two bottles of wine to the wine cellar.

Stella adjusted the backrest, gesturing for Marshall to sit.He took a seat beside her, directly across from Keegan.
