"That doesn't seem likely. We'd surely have found it if it was anywhere near the scene. Maybe you remembered it

wrongly," the police officer remarked.

Stella decided not to argue further. She was certain she hadn't been mistaken. However, no one knew where the

pendant was.

Following that, Stella recalled the day Jackson was taken away at the memorial service and asked, "Officer, is this

kidnapping case related to Jackson Kane, who was arrested a few days ago?"

The cop replied, "Jackson Kane has been released. There's no direct evidence linking him to the case. Moreover,

the two suspects claimed they didn't know him. We also found that Cody Hunter happened to be at Jackson's

gathering purely by coincidence."

Stella nodded and said, "I see. Thank you."

Whether Jackson was involved with the kidnapping or not, Chandler was undoubtedly implicated. Keegan's move

was a clear warning to Chandler.

The actual perpetrator was already deceased, and the remaining suspects admitted solely to the kidnapping. They

claimed the deceased had hired them for extra money but refused to reveal any further details.

With that, the case was closed.

Stella was genuinely unwilling to accept it, but there was nothing she could do for now.

Early the next morning, she called Wenham. "Dad, are you home today?"

Wenham had plans to go fishing with friends, but hearing his darling daughter's voice, he replied, "Yes, I am. What's

up, sweetie?"

"Nothing, I'm thinking of coming home for lunch. If you're not at home, I won't bother."

Wenham was speechless. "How does my presence affect whether you come home for lunch?"

Stella laughed."It's mainly because I want to have lunch with you."

Wenham was overjoyed to hear that. "You can come. I'll be waiting for you. Tell me what you want to eat, and I'll

have Samantha prepare the dishes in advance."

"What do you want to eat?" Stella asked him back.

"I'm fine with anything, sweetie. If you're not coming back, I'll manage with something simple. If you are, we can

enjoy some delicious food together," Wenham said lightheartedly.

This banter amused Stella. "You're making it sound so sad."

Judging from Wenham's words, Stella realized he was unaware of Jaylene inviting Keegan to the house.

'Was it that Jaylene didn't mention it, or did Coco get the timing wrong?’

After some thought, Stella felt that Jaylene probably hadn't told Wenham about Keegan going over for lunch.

Considering Wenham's temper, he would have exploded and skipped lunch altogether had he known that Jaylene

was bringing Keegan.

Stella tapped her fingers on the table and chuckled, ’ Dad, have Samantha prepare something lavish. You can

choose the dishes. I suspect there won't be a shortage of guests."

Wenham didn't quite grasp the meaning of the last sentence at the time, not until Jaylene arrived with Keegan at

the

Saun residence.

Keegan was dressed in a refined suit and brought a collection of gifts. Seeing him with Jaylene, Wenham thought he

was there to propose. He almost considered grabbing a nearby flowerpot to knock some sense into him.

"Nice to see you, Uncle Wenham," Keegan greeted politely." Grandma knew I was visiting you, so she carefully

selected some gifts. I hope you like them."

Wenham hadn't spoken yet when Darcie stepped forward to receive the items. "Oh, you didn't have to." She looked

Keegan up and down before asking with concern, "How's your health?" 3

Keegan nodded. "I'm almost near full recovery. I have a check-up in a few days. If all goes well, I should be fine."

Darcie sighed, "What doesn't kill you makes you stronger. Rest well, and you'll have a lot of good luck ahead of

you."

Wenham cleared his throat. With a stern expression, he said, "Don’t you think it's impolite to visit someone's home

without giving them a heads-up? Where are your manners?”
