Chapter 505 "Like who?"

Jaylene asked as she walked down the stairs. She wore a beige cotton dress with a high ponytail, shuffling down in slippers.

Jaylene had poor health at birth and grew slower than people of her same age.

But, she looked perfectly fine after years of pampering by the Saun family. She had a slender figure.

Her facial features were not striking, but they were not bland either.

She was quite attractive even without her makeup.

Trevor stood up and asked, "Are you done with your drawings?"

"Not yet. I heard both of you talking, so I came down to take a look, " Jaylene replied.

She then saw the lunch box on the table and exclaimed with delight, "What food did you bring back this time?"

Without waiting for Trevor's reply, she opened the lunch box.

Her slender eyebrows narrowed when she saw that it was pork loin with rice.

"Trevor, I thought you knew I don't like this."

Trevor preempted before Wenham could explain that it was given by Stella.

"This is for dad. You could ask the housemaid to make what you want to eat."

Wenham only then kept quiet.

Jaylene heard that it was for Wenham and spoke up.

"Dad, you have high blood pressure. The doctor said you have to avoid eating greasy food."

Wenham laughed awkwardly and said, "Pork loins aren't greasy. Besides, it's just this once. It's not a big deal."

Jaylene added, "Well, then eat up. We won't be able to help you cover up if mom finds out."

In truth, Jaylene did not mind pork loin with rice.

However, her mom hated it.

Her mom does not eat it and did not like them eating it as well.

"Alright," Wenham replied.

After Stella had finished her work in the production set the next day, she went home to change her clothes before heading out to her meeting. She rummaged through her wardrobe and chose a light blue dress. She still had to pay attention to her appearance while dining with elders.

So, she applied light makeup, and Trevor called her when she was changing her shoes.

"Ms.Jewell, are you ready?"

Stella was taken aback.

'How did he know that I was home getting ready?"

Trevor immediately explained, "I called Daniel just now, and he mentioned that you had already gone home. Come down if you're ready. I'll be waiting for you outside." Before Stella could think of the words to reject him, Trevor hung up the phone.

Stella thought in her heart, 'This boss is a little too enthusiastic."

Stella slipped on her shoes, grabbed her bag, and went out.

Sure enough, Trevor was outside waiting for her in the same Maybach he used to drive her back home yesterday.He was standing next to the car with his hands in his pocket, wearing sunglasses. He was propping one foot against the tire as he stared blankly ahead.

When Trevor saw her, he smirked and pulled his hands out from his pocket to open the passenger seat for her.

Stella thanked him and got into the car.

After the car started, Stella said, "Mr.Saun, there's no need for you to fetch me.I have my own car."

"I was just passing by. The gas prices are pretty high these days. Didn't you leave the marriage with nothing? Well, it's always good to save some money."

What Trevor said made sense, and Stella could not argue with it.

Trevor's enthusiasm had, at one point, made Stella suspect that he was trying to take advantage of her.

However, he had never made any inappropriate moves toward her.

Their conversations were mostly about her childhood, and he seemed genuinely interested in them.

Since Stella had signed a contract with him, she felt obligated to talk to him.

Therefore, they were chatting about random topics along the way.

Once they reached The Deli, Trevor stepped out of the car and opened Stella's door.

Keegan, who just got out of his car, saw that Trevor was holding Stella's hand and leading her out of the car.
