Chapter 1815
Jaylene frequently spoke negatively about Stella, citing instances like Trevor distancing himself from Jaylene after
Stella's return, Wenham's inclination to give Stella her room, and an incident involving Stella replacing expensive
decorations with cheaper items.
At that time, Keegan hadn't perceived Stella's actions as inherently wrong. Instead, he harbored a peculiar
sensation- a strong urge to meet her face-to-face.
One day, when Jaylene wasn't present, he ventured out in a car.
Despite not knowing what Stella looked like, the instant he laid eyes on her, he recognized her immediately.
That day, Stella stood outside the Vinci Rivera office building, dressed in formal attire with her hair elegantly tied
back. She had come out to bid farewell to Ted and the others.
Her face boasted exquisite features. Despite the makeup, the weariness in her eyes was evident.

She was like a blooming rose, shining among the crowd.
He stared at her for a long time and felt something in his heart. It was not until Jaylene called him and asked him
where he was before he hurriedly left.
Jaylene kept a close eye on him. Even when she was not around, she would have at least two people in the ward to
take care of him.
It felt more like surveillance than care.
Everything he did and every person he talked to would be immediately reported back to Jaylene.
Though he sensed something was off about Jaylene, he pretended ignorance and didn't inform her about secretly
meeting Stella. His injuries hadn't completely healed, and uncertainty loomed over many aspects, so he opted for
inaction.
However, despite his efforts, Jaylene became aware because Stella sought him out.
That day, his wound reopened during the commotion. Numerous medications were administered during the
stitching process, leaving him in a daze for several days.
When he regained consciousness, the memory of meeting Stella had faded. Strangely, he sensed a peculiar
closeness to Jaylene, an inexplicable feeling shrouded in indescribable vagueness.
So, before he could figure out what was happening, he did not want to get Stella involved, acting purely on instinct.
But Stella did not seem to distance herself from him because of his harsh words.
Instead, she continued to appear around him. Initially contemplating divorcing her once he recovered to protect
her from the chaos, he had a feeling that the situation was somehow linked to the kidnapping case.
He felt the need to stay around Jaylene to uncover potential clues, and having Stella around would only complicate
things.
The news of Stella's pregnancy caught him entirely off guard.
When Aldor discussed it with him, his thoughts swirled into chaos. He pondered when it happened, why Stella didn't

He never doubted for a moment that the baby wasn't his. He held an inexplicable trust in Stella. Despite Aldor's
mention of his vasectomy, he chose to believe that the procedure had failed, refusing to entertain the notion of
betrayal on Stella's part.
He wasn't someone who easily placed trust in others.
Similarly, with Jaylene, despite their month-long companionship and her dedicated care, he maintained his guard
around her.
But it was not the same with Stella. Despite the initial resistance he felt toward Stella, he never harbored any
doubts about her.
Reflecting on his meeting with Stella while he was still recovering from his injuries, his suspicions regarding Jaylene
intensified.
Jaylene's assertions-that Stella was inexperienced in perfumery and had obtained what was rightfully Jaylene's due
to Wenham's favoritism-now appeared more dubious to him.
