It took Joe over an hour to dye his hair. After finishing, he snapped a few selfies in front of the mirror and sent one to Keegan with the caption, “Starting fresh.”

Keegan looked at the photo of Joe with his new black hair, who looked both obedient and adorable, and couldn’t help but laugh.

Stella heard him laugh, put down her book, and asked, “What’s so funny?”

Keegan showed her Joe’s selfie.

Stella laughed, “I always wondered why he dyed his hair yellow, shaved his eyebrows, and wore an eyebrow stud. Turns out, he has a baby face! He looks even younger than Julian.”

Keegan chuckled, “His father looks just like this. He’s in his fifties but looks like he’s in his thirties. When Vermont first met him, he called him ‘brother’ and got scolded for being disrespectful. Then, a hotel supervisor—only in her early twenties—also called him ‘brother,’ and he stayed silent.”

Stella couldn’t stop laughing as she imagined the scene. She concluded, “People with baby faces are really lucky. Even in their fifties, they can still charm the young. Why didn’t I get a face like that?”

Keegan paused and looked at her, “Whose heart are you planning to steal?”

Stella smiled mischievously, “Mr. Kane, will you still get jealous after all these years?”

Keegan calmly replied, “Not at all.”

Stella was curious, “Really? Not even a little?”

Keegan confidently answered, “No.”

Stella pressed on, “Is that because love turns into family affection over time, so you don’t care anymore?”

Keegan responded, “I’m not sure about that, but I know one thing for certain.”
