Chapter 1863

Author: Eleven Jewell
Aldor couldn't help but burst into laughter this time.

Keegan glared at him. Aldor, smiling, said, "This kind of reminds me of when you and Mrs. Kane first got divorced."

This implied that everyone had turned against Keegan.

Keegan kept quiet.

Ultimately, Aldor still ended up taking Keegan to Cordelia's house. Of course, Cordelia had been joking earlier. How could she not welcome her grandson home for dinner?

Baldwin was waiting at the door for Keegan. As the car came to a stop, he walked over, opened the door, and said, "Aldor, wait a moment. Mrs. Kane Sr. wants to speak with you."

Surprised, Aldor stayed nonetheless.

Chandler had been on a business trip a few days ago where a severe flu outbreak occurred. Unfortunately, he caught it and couldn't make it back home.

Cyrene, still holding a grudge against Keegan for calling the police on Jackson, didn't make an effort to come over and pretend to please Cordelia, especially with her husband away.

Fearing Cordelia, Dahlia chose t

    The dining table was filled with lavish dishes, especially since Cordelia had planned to invite Sylvia over, the preparations were even more sumptuous.The five of them sat together at the table with about thirty different dishes served. It was Sylvia's first time having dinner with Aldor's boss, and she was very reserved. She was afraid to speak and even move, fearing that she might bring trouble to her son.Aldor gave Sylvia a set of utensils and said in a low voice, "Mom, relax yourself. Mrs. Kane Sr. is a very easy-going person."Sylvia nodded but only ate the few dishes placed right in front of her.Cordelia saw it and asked with a smile, "Sylvia, among all the dishes, do you only like the ones in front of you?"Sylvia was taken aback, and she shook her head. "N-No. They're all delicious.""Have some of them then," Cordelia said warmly before turning to Aldor, "Aldor, please help your mother with it. We must eat well and be happy on this joyous day."Aldor nodded and placed

    Aldor spoke in a firm tone, laced with a hint of sarcasm, not too loud but clear enough.Aurora was taken aback. She had always seen Aldor as someone who rarely lost his cool.He had always been the epitome of politeness at work, even when Aurora, in a fit of anger, had once scornfully called him the Kane family's lapdog. Aldor never snapped back.She had little regard for people like Aldor, who, in her eyes, would bend over backward to please their superiors.Not long ago, when she was relegated to a lower-tier department, her confrontations with Aldor, both overt and covert, had been frequent. Keegan, their boss, had tasked Aldor with supervising her.Aldor always seemed to assign her more challenging tasks than others. Whenever she submitted a report, he would scrutinize her work far more than anyone else's. His criticisms were sharp. "How is this data analysis? Where's your month-to-month, year-to-year comparison?""The title is catchy, but the content? It's incomprehensible.

    That person chuckled. "Just wait for my good news."...Word by word, the insults reached her ears. Aurora, who was always arrogant and domineering, fled upon hearing those gossip about her in the private room that day.She no longer attended those social gatherings or afternoon tears where socialites would flaunt their wealth. Instead, she spent time with Cordelia, listening every day to stories of Keegan's childhood.People could be strange sometimes. They could hate each other to the bones when arguing, but once things calmed down, all the feelings would subside. When she heard about those stories about Keegan, she could not help but think to herself. 'How did I and Keegan end up like this?'Is it purely because of Stella?'She still remembered the day when Keegan got her locked up. She scolded Keegan for being blind and bewitched by Stella, who enticed him to turn his back on her.At that time, Keegan looked at her with an extremely disappointed look and asked her, "You used

    Aldor, feeling a mix of sadness and understanding for Sylvia, had his suspicions about why Cordelia insisted on their dinner attendance.He deduced that his earlier rejection of Cordelia's marriage proposal might have prompted her to arrange this impromptu "blind date" with Aurora. Cordelia had been vague, mentioning only that their presence would make the dinner more joyful.Sylvia, visibly worried about Aldor's job security, masked her discomfort with a forced smile. This deepened Aldor's sadness, and he couldn't help but cast a colder gaze toward Aurora.Aurora shivered slightly, sensing the tension. She realized that her past arrogance might have led Aldor to believe she was deliberately trying to embarrass Sylvia.But that wasn't her intention.Apologizing wasn't Aurora's strong suit. She nervously offered Sylvia some buffalo wings, her voice wavering, "Mrs. Hart, I... I think your gray hair might be genetic. My aunt, who's only in her forties, has lots of gray hair too, and

    Keegan went upstairs with his phone.Left alone, Aldor asked Aurora, "Ms. Kane, what are your feelings toward me?"Aurora was confused. "What are you talking about?" His question caught her off guard."Feelings between a man and a woman," he clarified.Aurora, her cheeks reddening, denied, "Are you out of your mind? I have no feelings for you!"Inwardly, she wondered, 'Does he think I'm interested in him just because I'm not fighting with him anymore?'Aldor, appearing relieved, advised, "Good. If Mrs. Kane Sr. asks, tell her the same."Aurora, puzzled, questioned, "What's this got to do with Grandma?"Aldor explained, "Mrs. Kane Sr. is trying to set us up. Didn't you notice?"Aurora, initially shocked, protested, "That's impossible!"Aldor remained quiet and looked at her quietly.Aurora calmed down and thought about when Cordelia asked her about what happened at work, she would sound more enthusiastic when Aldor's name was mentioned.Reflecting on Cordelia's praise for Al

    The room was filled with an air of tension.Thankfully, Cordelia eased the atmosphere, agreeing with Sylvia's views on work-life balance. "You're right. Work is important, but it's not everything. What's the point of earning so much if we can't enjoy life?"Sylvia breathed a sigh of relief. "Exactly."Then, Cordelia shifted the conversation toward Aurora. "Sylvia, what do you think about my granddaughter?"Sylvia, with genuine admiration, replied, "Ms. Kane is absolutely stunning, like someone out of a TV show. And her personality is just as impressive. She's very respectful and obedient toward you."Cordelia, with a hint of mischief, asked, "And what about the idea of her and Aldor together?"Sylvia was taken aback. "A-Aldor?"Cordelia clarified, "Yes, Aldor."The idea of her son and the wealthy heiress becoming a couple initially overwhelmed Sylvia. It took her a moment to process.Cordelia did not just invite her over for a chat, but to discuss a potential match between Aur

    Cordelia announced confidently, "Sylvia, let's plan a marriage for Aldor and Aurora two weeks later. With Aldor as my official grandson-in-law, there'll be no gossip about him being around."Sylvia was a bit taken aback by how fast things were moving.Aldor and Aurora, meanwhile, were completely bewildered by this turn of events.Aurora, in particular, was regretting not heeding Aldor's earlier advice.Despite her reservations, Cordelia was evidently thrilled. Aurora, not wanting to admit she was just reacting to Aldor's earlier trick, hesitantly said, "Grandma, there's no need to rush things. I'm still quite young.""You might be, but Aldor isn't. Besides, an engagement will put an end to any idle talk," Cordelia insisted firmly, mindful of the societal implications of their class differences.Aurora was dumbfounded, wishing she could rewind time and avoid this situation.She looked desperately at Aldor, silently urging him to object.Aldor met her gaze and spoke up, "Mrs. Kan

    Aldor and Aurora were equally perplexed, unable to understand Keegan's anger.Aurora, realizing the predicament Cordelia had put her in with Aldor, turned to her brother Keegan for support. She cautiously said, "Keegan, Grandma wants me to get engaged to Aldor."Keegan took a moment, glanced at Aldor, and dryly commented, "Marrying my sister doesn't mean a pay raise."Their speechlessness reflected their surprise at his response.Aurora couldn't believe it. She pressed, "Is that all you're going to say?"Keegan pondered, then added, "Once you make this choice, there's no going back."Aurora's hopes sank. She had expected Keegan to be vehemently against the idea. 'How can he be okay with his subordinate marrying his sister? We're from different worlds, and I've been nothing but harsh to Aldor! Has Keegan lost his mind?'Trying to reason with her brother, Aurora pointed out, "Look at us, Keegan. Do you really think Aldor and I are a good match?"Keegan's indifferent reply caught

    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
