Chapter 1453

Author: Eleven Jewell
Jaylene's face flushed, as she struggled to breathe. The veins on her forehead bulged. Many onlookers were witnessing this situation for the first time, and their reactions were delayed. All the guests were taken aback by Jaylene's distressing condition. Some instinctively stepped back to give her space.

Stella frowned. She was prepared to approach and assess the situation, but Keegan had already appeared by her side. Then, he gently restrained her by the wrist. "Don't get too close," he murmured to her.

Stella complied, holding her position without moving. The sudden commotion quickly attracted attention. Trevor promptly arrived to disperse the gathering. Witnessing her daughter's struggle, Darcie's eyes reddened. She swiftly embraced her and urgently called for someone to fetch her medicine. Jaylene's symptoms showed no sign of improvement after a few puffs from the inhaler. This caused Darcie to worry even more.

Wenham's face was tense at the moment. He comforted Darcie while ins

    Leighton's younger brother, Noah, noticed that Leighton stayed behind and let go of his mother's hand. "Dad, I want to stay with Jaylene a little longer," he said.Daryl, who usually found Noah quite obedient, agreed. He then advised Leighton to bring Noah back when he leaves.Leighton did not seem pleased. He glanced at the little one beside him and reluctantly agreed.The Kane family departed quietly without a word, just as they had arrived. The revelation of Stella's status as the Saun family heiress was too shocking. Their main concern now was the potential of rekindling Keegan and Stella's past relationship. With the support of the Saun family, Keegan would undoubtedly have a formidable ally, making it less likely for Chandler to seize control of Vinci Rivera.They needed some time to digest this information. Cordelia and Aurora left with Chandler's family.Soon, the guests gradually departed, leaving very few people. Marshall, who had been quietly observing from a corner, fi

    Stella turned toward the voice and saw Ariel standing there in a light beige dress, holding a gift box. Unlike Dahlia and Irene, who always exuded extravagance, Ariel's appearance was elegantly understated. Even though she had gained a little weight, she still radiated grace.The last time Stella and Ariel met was at the jewelry exhibition over half a year ago. In her memory, Ariel had fair skin and a healthy complexion. But now, looking at her, she seemed to have lost some weight, and her spirit did not seem as vibrant as it did half a year ago.With a smile, Stella nodded politely. "Hello, Mrs. Moore."Marshall subtly furrowed his brows, as he was annoyed. "Why did you come along? I'm leaving after a few words.""I want to talk to Ms. Saun too," Ariel replied.Marshall's frown deepened, and he stood there in silence.Ariel turned to Stella and spoke warmly. "Ms. Saun, I remember you helping Marshall when he was injured a while ago. Initially, I wanted to come and thank you pers

    Ariel suppressed her words and bid farewell before leaving the venue with her son. Once they were gone, Stella turned to Keegan and said, "Marshall's mother is a little strange. Why did she give me her younger son's pendant as a sign of gratitude? It feels like a movie where the protagonist can make requests by holding on to a certain family heirloom."Keegan stayed silent. At first, he did not understand Ariel's intentions. However, after hearing her words, he seemed to grasp it.Ariel likely sensed Marshall's feelings for Stella. She came here to sever any lingering romantic ties between them. Whether it was adopting Stella as her goddaughter or giving her the pendant, her objective was clear. She wanted to push them into a sibling relationship and extinguish any romantic sentiments Marshall might have.Stella tugged at Keegan's sleeve. "Hey, I'm asking you a question. Why aren't you responding?"Keegan returned to reality and calmly said, "How should I know what she means? Maybe

    Stella smiled.Mrs. Chapman...No, Olivia Warren was a very clever person who knew exactly what to do at the right time.If she were to make any demands, she would be seen as someone who could be mutually beneficial to Stella at most, but she did not take the opportunity to claim any credits. Instead, she told Stella that there was no loss on her side, and it was a win-win situation. So, there was no need for Stella to be so courteous. Her words suddenly made Stella like her a lot more.Stella was about to say something, but Olivia's husband, Erick Chapman, walked over.He politely greeted Stella. "Hello, Ms. Saun."Stella nodded and said in a flat tone, "Mr. Chapman, are you here for your wife?"Erick smiled faintly. He was an average-looking man who was relatively chubby. His physique resembled the stereotypical boss who loved to brag just about anything and had literally nothing exceptional about their looks.Although Olivia was about fifty years old, she loved interacting wit

    After all, Olivia had a history of helping Dahlia, which caused Stella a lot of trouble.However, ever since she found out that her husband had been secretly having an affair for nearly twenty years and even conspiring to cheat her money, Olivia seemed to have suddenly woken up.She had always been a smart person. Otherwise, she would not have been able to operate two of her hotels so successfully. However, terrifying things could happen when intelligent people fall in love.She had mingled with all kinds of people in society for her husband's future. She also used her hard-earned money to boost her husband's career and reputation. She might be a materialistic person to others, but she was ultimately doing everything for the person she loved and for her family.Unfortunately, the man who she sacrificed so much for became the same person who betrayed her.Even worse, Erick still shamelessly said those cheesy words to Olivia in front of Stella. It was utterly disgusting.Felicity c

    Everyone was surprised, and when they turned around, they saw Noah sprawled on Jaylene's bed, struggling to get up.The scream came from Jaylene.Her complexion was already somewhat pale when they came in, but now it had become ghostly.After all, Noah was eleven years old. Although he had not hit puberty yet and was only about four feet nine, he weighed around a hundred pounds. Leighton had thrown him directly onto Jaylene's stomach. Jaylene was already a very skinny person, and the impact nearly crushed her internal organs.She arched like a shrimp and clutched her stomach in pain while groaning.Darcie was shocked. She immediately grabbed Noah and dragged him off the bed. "What are you doing?!" she yelled.She would have pushed Noah to the ground if Keegan did not catch Noah in time.Noah seemed terrified, as he stood in front of Keegan with a pale face, trembling in fear.Darcie held onto Jaylene, and her face was filled with concern. "Jaylene, are you okay? Where does it h

    Jaylene shook her head, as she held Darcie's hand and struggled to sit up. Then, she looked at Stella."Stella, I'm sorry. Although it wasn't intentional, I know that you almost got into trouble because of the makeup artist. You might not believe anything I say, but I would still like to apologize to you. I'm sorry."She bowed at Stella after saying those words, and tears welled up in her eyes when she raised her head back up."I may not be dad's biological daughter, but he raised me since I was a child. I've seen how much he missed you with my own eyes. I hope more than anyone that the banquet can be held smoothly so that Dad's wish can finally come true. I'll never be able to forgive myself if I'm the reason why the banquet went wrong."After saying that, she got up and knelt on the bed, facing Wenham. She paid no attention to the needle on her face, as she said, "Dad, I'm sorry. I honestly had no idea that Michael was Stella's makeup artist. I would've never hired him no matter

    Stella did not take it. She had just cried, and her eyes were still red. It made her look very vulnerable."Darcie, this was just a misunderstanding to begin with, and it's my fault for bringing it up at the wrong time. If I were to take this bangle from you, how do I explain where it came from if others asked? If I told them that you gave it to me as compensation on behalf of Jaylene, they would definitely want to find out what exactly happened. I'm never good at explaining things, and if they misunderstood anything, there would be a big problem."You've been busy preparing and picking the right hotel for the banquet in the past few days. I should've just let it go considering the effort you put into this for me. It was my fault for bringing it up."Darcie's heart sank, as she subconsciously glanced at Wenham.His expression turned somewhat unpleasant.'Why did she have to mention the hotel?'She's clearly just pretending to admit that it was her fault.'I underestimated her.

    Keegan moved from initial resistance to reluctantly listening, and eventually to questioning."Why do these novels portray men as so stupid and brainless, yelling at the female lead as if they have intermittent explosive disorder?""Is the male lead sick? Forcing the female lead to donate a kidney, is he out of his mind?""How many years would they get for calling the police in their world?""Why is he so dumb? The supporting actress claims the female lead pushed her into the water and he believes it? Is checking surveillance footage illegal?""Stella, are you making fun of me?""I can't learn this. It all feels so neurotic. What does the female lead see in him?"Stella retorted, "Who cares if it's neurotic? Just mimic that stupidity, that's how these innocent women like men who protect them like that."Keegan was very reluctant, but his brain was more compliant than his body. Without needing to study deliberately, everything he heard stuck in his mind.So when Keegan mentione

    Keegan's expression darkened with anger. "You're being completely unreasonable!"Stella crossed her arms, wearing an expression that seemed challenging. "You let her take it. Let's see if I dare."Jaylene hadn't actually wanted those junk items in the first place; she was deliberately trying to stir up discord between them. Now that her goal was achieved, she put on a sympathetic look."Keegan, I don't want it anymore. Don't be angry. Your health is more important. Didn't the doctor say to keep your emotions stable?"Turning her head, she reproached Stella. "Stella, are you here to help Keegan recover his memory or just to provoke him?""Shut up, you brat! Do you even have a say here?"Acting under the guise of a drama, playing the role of someone lacking in manners, was incredibly satisfying.She’d wanted to curse this brat for a long time!Jaylene's lips twitched, but she held back, tearfully saying, "Stella, if you don't like me, I'll leave. There's no need to humiliate me l

    Jaylene understood the situation perfectly. Even though she didn't particularly like these cold, mechanical devices, she put on a pretense of surprise, saying, "Really, Keegan?"Keegan nodded. "Choose one you like.""Keegan!" Before Stella could finish her sentence, she couldn't hold back her sharp voice, "With your pile of junk that I can't even touch normally, she takes a look and now you want to give it to her? What's the meaning of this?!"Keegan frowned, apparently not comprehending her current anger at all. "Jaylene gave me a gift, and I'm giving her one in return. What's the problem?""What problem?" Stella's eyes started to redden. "I can't touch them, so why should she be able to? Have you forgotten, or do you have inappropriate feelings for her?"Keegan's expression darkened. "This makes no sense!"Jaylene secretly delighted in this, hypocritically trying to calm things down, "Forget it, Keegan. Since Stella minds so much, I don't want it anymore. You've strained your r

    The standoff lasted for over twenty minutes before Keegan grabbed a book and knocked the beetle off Jaylene's neck. The beetle fluttered twice and suddenly flew up, landing on Jaylene's face.Jaylene screamed, rolled her eyes, and fainted.As she collapsed, the bug flew off again."Jaylene?"Keegan called out to her.He looked up at Stella and said, "You go start the car, I'll carry her to the hospital."As he spoke, he signaled to Stella.She understood and coldly grunted, "So troublesome."Walking over to Jaylene, she squatted down beside her and slapped her face twice.Jaylene immediately opened her eyes and reached out to push her away. "What are you doing!"Stella was prepared and had already moved back before she could be pushed.She shook her tingling hand and innocently said, "Jaylene, you fainted because of the bug. I was just saving you. Don't believe me? Ask Keegan."Jaylene nearly ground her teeth. Did she think she hadn't heard? She was intentionally exposing h

    Her fingertips trembled with a mix of horror and excitement. Just as the teapot was about to slip from her grasp, Keegan suddenly said, "Jaylene, don't move."Jaylene froze, instinctively thinking Keegan had regained his memory. She had barely twitched when Keegan loudly stopped her again, "Don't move, absolutely don't move."Jaylene wanted to say something, but then felt an itching sensation on her neck, as if something was crawling slowly. Goosebumps erupted all over her body.By now, Stella had turned around and saw Jaylene standing stiffly with the teapot in hand. Her eyes quickly assessed the situation and then she noticed the beetle crawling on Jaylene's neck.It was an unknown species, not overly tentacled but as long as a little finger, its mouthparts slightly twitching, genuinely alarming in appearance.Stella murmured, "It's so big."Jaylene couldn't see what was on her neck, unsure if it would bite or if it was venomous. She stood frozen in place, her voice trembling,

    Seeing him, Stella even lowered her eyes and softly praised, "Mr. Kane, you acted very well."Keegan glared at her, his voice low and intense. "If you keep watching like this, Coco will cut ties with me tomorrow."Stella replied confidently, "No, she won't. After accepting the red envelope, she can tolerate you a little longer."Keegan asked sharply, "Did you teach her to ask for red envelopes like this?""Don't falsely accuse me; I didn't teach her.""You may not have taught her directly, but you set an example. Have you forgotten how you always make me buy things for you?"Stella was speechless. Whenever she wanted Keegan to buy her something, she would often say, "Gifts are only surprises when given voluntarily. If reminded, it shows they don’t like me that much."It had to be said, Coco had learned the essence of it.Stella also felt a bit awkward, thinking that in the future, she needed to avoid such flirtatious conversations between spouses in front of the children. They

    Could she figure all this out?Keegan frowned, casting a disappointed look at Coco. "Are you not listening to me now?"Coco raised her gaze defiantly and stated, "Aunt Stella taught me that if I don't want something someone gives me, I can say no. I don't want this hairpin.""Didn't she teach you that even if you don't like something, you should still say thank you?"Coco fell silent for a moment, then reluctantly said to Jaylene, "Thank you, Aunt Jaylene, but I don't want it."Jaylene hesitated with her hand extended, unsure whether to retract it or leave it there, managing a strained smile. "Then what do you like? Next time, I will get you something you do like."Coco asked, "Do you want me to do something for you?"Jaylene was taken aback. "What?"Coco replied seriously, "Aunt Stella says offering help without reason is either deceitful or thieving. Since you don't like me, why else would you give me something? You want me to do something for you, right?"Jaylene forced a s

    Leighton's incident did indeed revive their suspicions.Jaylene was gullible, but Darcie might see through this scheme. "Keegan, why didn't you go to work today?" Jaylene chose to ask directly at first.Keegan remained composed. "I've been busy with the press conference lately and haven't had much rest. Now that things have slowed down, I thought I'd take a break and relax."Jaylene spoke gently, "You should rest well. Since you came back, you've been busy, and you've been postponing Dr. Stone's follow-up appointments. Keegan, I'm really worried about your health. Since you're resting these days, I'll arrange for Dr. Stone to give you another check-up. Stella has been living here to assist your recovery for so long. We need the doctor to give a clear assessment of whether there's been any improvement. Otherwise, it's not good for Stella's reputation to stay here so long, unmarried and under one roof."Keegan nodded. "Okay, please arrange it. Thank you."His response was decisive,

    Stella had just descended the stairs when she heard that remark, causing her eyelids to twitch as she thought to herself, “Damn it! He really knows how to come up with excuses!”Upon hearing this, Jaylene's eyes briefly flashed with disdain, but she ultimately accepted the shoe covers Keegan handed her. As Keegan led Jaylene into the house, her eyes continued to scrutinize every corner.There were a couple of pillows on the sofa, couple mugs on the table, wedding photos of Keegan and Stella on the walls, and even headbands and hair ties scattered on the table. The house exuded an unmistakable feminine touch.Jaylene's expression darkened, but when Keegan turned to ask if she preferred tea or coffee, she adopted a gentle, harmless demeanor. "Tea would be perfect."Keegan invited her to take a seat and called for Maria to prepare tea. Jaylene spoke softly, "Keegan, I heard from Stella that you brew Dragon Well tea better than anyone else. Is there a special technique?"Stella paused
