Chapter 1696

Author: Eleven Jewell
Jaylene's expression stiffened. "That's not what I meant," she said.

"Then just play the role of a bystander. Don't get involved in their affairs," Marshall replied.

Jaylene's complexion did not look good. She walked over to her brother and called out, "Trevor."

Trevor looked at her coldly, "And you claimed you didn't know where he was. Hah."

Jaylene turned pale, "Trevor, I had no choice at the time. I wanted to say something, but Keegan's condition was so bad. I—"

"Enough!" Darcie interrupted her. "Save it for when we get back."

Wenham's expression was already grim. Even if Jaylene's intentions were unclear to him before, they were now unmistakable.

Darcie had to stop her from continuing to avoid an embarrassing situation, especially since they were at Cordelia's residence.

Jaylene closed her mouth immediately. She bit her lips and stood beside Darcie with red eyes.

Stella walked behind Keegan, intending to help him with the wheelchair. However, just as she touched the handle

    However, Stella completely ignored what Keegan said.In just a few seconds, she unbuttoned his shirt. While gripping the collars on both sides, she disregarded Keegan's resistance and stripped his shirt off his shoulder. Then, she saw the various large and small scars covering his body.Keegan's body, especially his back, hardly had any smooth skin left.Some of the scars had partially healed, leaving only faint red or brown marks on his body. Meanwhile, the ones that had not healed still had stitches on them.The longest one extended from the back of his neck to the side of his waist. There were still traces of chilblains on it, which made it look gruesome.Stella's heart dropped, as she took a deep breath.She reached out with her trembling hands to touch his scar-covered back, and her mind was filled with the images of Keegan covered in blood that night.Sadness and fear surged through her. She then felt a lump in her throat, finding it hard to utter a word.Keegan's body tu

    Stella only let go after hearing Keegan's words.The expression on Keegan's face looked unpleasant. Perhaps in his entire life, no one had ever made him both angry and helpless like this.He supported himself on the armrest and slowly stood up from the wheelchair. Although his steps seemed a little unsteady, he did not appear to be injured.Keegan turned around and glared at her. "Are you happy now?"Stella kept quiet. Suddenly, she bent down and forcefully pulled down his pants, directly exposing him down to his calves.Keegan was shocked!His face darkened with anger, as he pushed her away. He pulled his pants back up in a clumsy manner and muttered, "What a shameless and indecent woman!"Stella fell on her butt but felt a slight relief inside. Keegan did not lie to her. Indeed, there were no major wounds on his legs. It was true that he just could not walk because his muscles felt weak after lying down for a long time.Keegan was still very weak, and he was startled by Stell

    "What did you say?"For a moment, Stella thought that she had misheard Keegan's words.Keegan looked at her emotionlessly. "I said, I want to break off the engagement. I don't remember anything about our past, and I have no feelings for you now."Stella's breath hitched, and her firm belief that Keegan was pretending to have lost his memory began to waver."What did Jaylene feed you? Or, is she using something to threaten you? What kind of nonsense are you talking about? Keegan Kane, this isn't an idol drama. Stop fooling around!"Keegan's face remained expressionless, despite what Stella said."If I remember our relationship, why would I not want to marry you? Honestly, I can't remember who you are."The calmer he appeared, the more anxious Stella got."You remember Vermont, my brother, and everyone else, yet I'm the only person that you don't remember? Do you think I'll believe you? Are you mad at me because you saw the rumors online? Is that why you're pretending not to reme

    With reddened eyes, Stella shook her head.Then, Keegan turned his wheelchair around and headed toward the door.Stella followed him from behind. When he opened the door, she said, "I'm glad that you're alive."Keegan paused for a moment, then twisted the doorknob and went out.When they went to the living room, everyone shifted their attention to them. Jaylene wanted to go and help Keegan, but Darcie grabbed her sleeve, indicating for her to stop.Marshall walked up to Stella and asked softly, "Did you guys talk?"Stella nodded with a weary expression before turning to her father and brother. Then, she said, "Let's go home."The fact that Stella was not going to stay and take care of Keegan showed that their conversation did not end well.Although Wenham was not very happy with the fact that Keegan and Jaylene came back together, he was still very worried about Keegan's health. After exchanging a few words with Keegan, he then left with his family.In the yard, Felicity was h

    Stella softly said, "He doesn't remember me.""Huh? Is he serious? Even the scripts I write aren't this cliché. This can't be true."Felicity was in disbelief.Stella did not want to believe it either. However, Keegan did not look like he was pretending at all back in the study. Even if it was a part of Jaylene's scheme and he had no choice but to play along, he could have given her some hint when they were alone in the study earlier.But, he did not. Keegan seemed like he genuinely could not remember her, showing only indifference and coldness toward her.It was true that Keegan was back, but it was not the same Keegan she was expecting.Keegan's return added another layer of suspicion to the already unclear situation. She needed time to calmly think about it and sort things out."He'd know that I hate Jaylene if he remembers me. Why would he still call her over in my face?"Felicity paused, as she thought to herself. 'It's true. Given how madly in love he was with Stella, he

    Vermont was surprised. "Did he really get Jaylene to help him?"Marshall kept quiet, but the look on his face told Vermont the answer.Vermont did not believe that Keegan had lost his memories as well. Much like Stella, he believed that Keegan had probably read the rumors online about Stella and Marshall and got angry. Vermont figured that it was probably the reason why Keegan pretended to have lost his memories and that it allowed him to vent his anger.He turned to Marshall and thought that he should address the issue at its roots.He said, "Marshall, I won't dwell on what happened before. When everyone thought that Keegan was gone, it was understandable that you couldn't control your emotions. But, now that he's back, you should really start restraining yourself. We're such good friends. It won't be worth it to ruin what we have because of a woman."Marshall looked nonchalant, as he gazed at the steaming teacup in front of him for a long time before he said, "I won't make any m

    'Fuck!'Suddenly, Vermont's mind was filled with just one phrase. 'Keegan Kane, you're in big fucking trouble!'Keegan paused. He turned around and met Stella's gaze.Her gaze did not look as passionate as it did in the study; it was now icy.Clearly, she had heard everything Keegan said just now.Vermont tried to cover up for Keegan. "Stella, don't take those words seriously. He's just saying them because he's angry. You know how Keegan is. He's just being sarcastic and jealous—""I'm here to get my gloves."Stella cut him off. Her voice sounded clear, leaving no hint of emotion."Gloves..." Vermont was taken aback. "Where are they?""In the study room." Keegan pursed his lips."I'll bring Stella to them," Jaylene said."There's no need for that." Stella looked at her coldly. "I know this house better than you do."Jaylene shut up awkwardly. This time, Keegan did not speak up for her.Stella went right to the study, took her gloves, and was about to leave directly. But, w

    The edge of Vermont's mouth twitched, as a big "fuck" echoed in his mind. Then, he grumbled, "Pay what back? The dividend you took from me is enough for you to buy a mansion!"He paused for a moment before he added, "So, is Stella the only person that you can't remember? Did some witch cast a love-extinguishing spell on you when you fell in the water?"Keegan remained expressionless. "If you're only here to say this nonsense, please get lost."Vermont gritted his teeth and muttered under his breath, "What a brainless and ungrateful asshole."As he was about to walk away after speaking, Keegan suddenly called out to him. "Wait."Vermont stopped, and he wore an expression that screamed, "You better apologize to me."However, he heard Keegan saying, "When you leave, take away those flower wreaths at the door. They're annoying me."At that moment, Vermont felt as though he should dunk him back into the water.He turned around, chuckled in a feminine way, and said, "Sure, Keegan."

    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
