Jaylene's expression immediately turned ugly, "Dad, Keegan doesn't remember Stella...""Is that going to change the fact that they're engaged?"Jaylene was about to say something more, but Wenham just waved his hand, "Have Sandra bring the first aid box and see if Keegan needs it."Jaylene clenched her fists tight and reluctantly swallowed her dissatisfaction and frustration.Marshall stood up and said, "Stella, I'll come with you.""It's okay. I'll be back in a second."Stella then grabbed Keegan's arm and said, "Let me take you to get changed."Keegan pulled his arm back and adjusted his shirt, maintaining a bossy demeanor, "Lead the way."Stella gritted her teeth. 'I'd add some boiling water into the soup if you weren't injured!' she thought.She glared at Keegan and stomped on the floor as she walked away. After a few minutes, Keegan was brought to a room filled with pink. His eyebrows twitched, "Is this Trevor's room?"As soon as he finished asking, he heard the locked d
As Stella spoke, her hand was already on Keegan's belt.Keegan abruptly grabbed her mischievous hand. Perhaps her overly shameless words had provoked him, causing his entire face, ear, and neck to turn red. His gaze fixed on her as if he wanted to tear her apart.His lips twitched before he said, while gritting his teeth, "Do you even know what you're saying? You're simply... You're simply outrageous!"Stella blinked her eyes, "What? I just wanted to confirm if you hid something in your pocket."Her words were starting to give Keegan a headache. "Weren't you just saying..."He abruptly stopped talking. However, Stella took advantage of the situation."What was I saying?"Keegan clenched his fists tight without saying a word, his eyes burning with anger."Tsk," Stella clicked her tongue and thought, 'Can't he even say the word "hard"? He lost his memories, yet he's acting like an innocent college boy.'But on second thought, it seemed like Keegan had never been a person who wou
Keegan almost immediately recalled the day when she whispered in his ear, "Every time you stand up for Jaylene, I'll be there to push her down. If you dare to be with her, I'll make sure you can never have children."Keegan's gaze fell on her foot between his legs. Indeed, if she were to step two inches above, he would not be able to have any children.He took a deep breath and said, "What's the point of pestering me like this? You're the heiress of the Saun family and the precious daughter of Uncle Wenham. You can have any man you want. Why insist on being with someone who doesn't even remember you?"After what happened in the past few days, Stella was not as easily hurt by his words. However, she still felt a little sad. Then, she confronted Keegan, "What about you? You lost your memories, but you don't seem to want to recover them. Instead, you just want to drive me away. Why?"Keegan pursed his lips, "Even if our love was as deep as you claimed it to be, it would only burden th
As soon as Keegan picked it up, Stella snatched it from him and swallowed one.Keegan's lips twitched. Then, he got up and handed her a glass of water from the table.This time, Stella did not reject it. After taking the medicine, she lay down on the bed.Keegan was about to go downstairs to call for help when Stella said with her eyes closed, "I'll jump out of the window if you dare leave this room."Keegan froze, "I think you need to go to the hospital."Stella ignored him. She stared at the ceiling and said, after a long pause, "Keegan Kane, let me ask you again. Are you sure you want to cut ties with me?"Keegan curled his fingers slightly as he shifted his gaze away from her face. "I don't remember who you are," he said.Stella remained silent for a long time before she said coldly, "Get lost then. You can do whatever you want now."Her voice carried no emotion at all. From the moment he regained consciousness, that was the first time Stella had spoken to him in such a ton
She could not bear the title of a homewrecker and was even more reluctant to distance herself from the Saun family. Yet, she could not control her own heart, repeatedly making inappropriate moves on Keegan. Perhaps she wanted Keegan to actively express his love for her. That way, even if no one agreed to their relationship, Keegan would suffer all the criticism.However, she did not know Keegan well enough. Even if he lost his memories and did actually develop feelings for her during their time together, he would never be with her once he found out about the relationship between her and his ex-wife.Jaylene had no idea how fundamentally conservative Keegan truly was.If she could find out what Stella said to Keegan from the man himself, she would not need to come and ask Stella.Considering both of their attitudes, it did not take Jaylene long to realize that something bad had probably happened between the two earlier.As Jaylene thought about that, she changed her tone, "Stella,
"Are you listening to what you're saying?" Stella said with a mocking face. "Even if you want to throw yourself to him, you should consider if that person is interested in you."Although Stella had also fallen for Keegan at first sight when he saved her, she did not think too much of it at the moment. If it were not for Albert forcing her into marrying someone else and meeting Keegan, she figured the car accident would probably have been their only encounter.Jaylene's expression did not look pleasant. After all, she had been loving Keegan for more than ten years, and it was just described as one-sided by another person.She then took a deep breath and said, "Keegan is a person who will be very loyal once he commits to a relationship. He used to be loyal to you, but now he doesn't even remember you. How can you be so sure he won't be attracted to me?"On the day he woke up, he actually didn't remember a lot of things, but he recognized me at a glance. When people are at their most
Marshall paused before continuing, "Uncle Wenham, I have a friend who owns a café, and a lot of people love playing chess there. If you're interested, I can take you there sometime."Wenham was about to agree but hesitated, considering his doubtful chess skills. So, he cleared his throat and said, "Chess is meant to be played in a quiet place. I prefer playing it at home. Come and play a few rounds with me whenever you're free."Marshall said, "What about the day after tomorrow? I have nothing planned in the afternoon."Wenham was overjoyed, "That's wonderful! Remember to drop by then. Oh, by the way, Marshall, what kind of food do you like? Let Stella know so I can prepare something before you come."Marshall nodded, "Sure."Hence, Marshall's next visit to the Saun residence was quickly scheduled.Stella had a vague feeling that Marshall was executing a strategic plan—winning over her family before making his move on her.Stella had no idea what to do about the situation at all
For some reason, Stella just could not bring herself to be harsh on him.Perhaps it was due to his upbringing in the Moore family. He would always be treated as the second option, making him feel like he was unimportant and always thinking he was at fault.When Marshall heard Stella say that, there was a glimmer of hope in Marshall's eyes. "Really?" he asked softly.Stella did not look at him when she said, "Didn't you notice that my father treats you better than my brother? It's because he likes you.""Stella..."Marshall wanted to say something, but Stella hastily interrupted, "Hurry up and move your car. You're blocking the road."Marshall had no choice but to stop talking and get into his car.After turning his car around, he rolled down the window, "Call me if there's anything. Take care of yourself."Stella nodded and watched him leave.Meanwhile, Keegan sat in the car while Aldor drove. He clenched his jaw tight and barely said anything.When they almost arrived at Roy
