Chapter 1999
Before Keegan could respond, Stella interjected firmly, "Agreeing not to use that medicine was my limit.
If you keep pushing me not to share it, we'll file for a divorce tomorrow. No need to continue this farce!"
Keegan remained silent momentarily, then said, "what if you exceed her data limit? Connect both
phones to the Wi-Fi. We have a gigabit connection here; it'll be faster."
Stella thought, 'At least he's got that right.'
A car engine echoed from downstairs as Stella connected the phones to the Wi-Fi. Peering through the
curtains, Keegan saw the Saun family car pulling up. Darcie had arrived.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtStella began to panic, "Why is she here already? The battery isn't drained yet, and I haven't finished
sending the photos."
"Stay calm," Keegan reassured her, handing her a coat. "Go to the next room and keep quiet. I'll handle
Darcie. Remember to delete her chat history and Wi-Fi from the phone after the upload. Don't worry if
the video isn't fully sent. Just be silent."
Stella nodded.
Keegan gave her an encouraging smile, kissed her forehead gently, and whispered, "Go on."
The doorbell rang insistently downstairs, still catching Stella's scent in the air, Keegan opened
Jaylene's bag, took out her perfume, and sprayed it around. Then, he opened the windows to let the
fragrance disperse. After messaging Aldor, he leisurely descended the stairs. Frowning, Darcie
demanded, "Why did it take you so long to open the door? Where's Jaylene?"
"She's upstairs, resting after some hangover beverage," Keegan replied nonchalantly.
"Which room? Take me there," She insisted.
"Darcie, please wait," Keegan said. "Jaylene hasn't woken up yet. She was dizzy, and the beverage
didn't help. Aldor's getting hangover medicine. Once she takes it, you can take her home."
Darcie coldly refused, "I'll take her now. We have medicine at home."
'It's better if she's not awake. If she wakes up and sees Keegan, she'll probably insist on staying.'
Darcie thought, she looked up and said, "Please, show me the way."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmKeegan glanced at his wristwatch and nodded, "Right this way."
Keegan led Darcie to the room. Jaylene, flushed and restless in her sleep, seemed genuinely unwell.
Darcie tried to rouse her but to no avail. She glanced around and saw Jaylene's bag on the table.
There was a faint scent of perfume in the room, the kind Jaylene always used. Darcie flipped through
Jaylene's bag and asked, "Where is Jaylene's phone?"
Keegan calmly explained, "Aldor took it to charge. I'll get it."
He returned shortly with the phone. Darcie took it, noting the 20- something percent battery. She
glanced at Keegan but said nothing. Determined to separate Jaylene from Keegan, Darcie did not even
ask for his help. Instead, she called the driver to carry Jaylene downstairs.
After the car had left and Keegan was sure they were gone, he returned upstairs. Stella had not come
out of the room, which he found peculiar. He wondered if she was too scared to move. He opened the
door and found her squatting on the floor, she was slightly pale, fixated on her phone. On the screen
was a video from when Keegan was gravely injured.
