Chapter 2349 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 cback, 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, causing Jaylene to wonder if she had overthought things.

Dr. Stone had earlier informed her that someone as mentally strong and resilient as Keegan wouldn't sustain the psychological suggestions for very long.
Jaylene wanted to say more, but Coco Morrell suddenly returned from outside, shouting loudly before even entering, "Uncle Keegan, guess what I caught!" Upon entering, Coco saw Jaylene sitting in the living room and immediately toned down her smile.
She didn't particularly like Jaylene. When Keegan had just returned, Jaylene had been visiting the Kane family estate quite frequently. At that time, Coco had no one to play with, and she often stuck to Keegan. When Jaylene praised Coco's beauty and cuteness in front of Keegan, trying to strike up conversations with her, Coco wouldn't even acknowledge her when Keegan wasn't around.
Children were the most sensitive to adult emotions, especially Coco, who had spent years in hospitals and had seen all kinds of people. She could easily tell whether someone's frown was due to concern or disdain.
Jaylene knew that Coco didn't like her from the start.
But when she saw Coco, Jaylene greeted her warmly nonetheless. "Coco, long tno see! Looks like you've grown taller since the last time." Coco pursed her lips and didn't say anything, her enthusiasm greatly diminished.
Keegan said calmly, "Aunt Jaylene is saying hi to you. Where are your manners, Coco?" Coco glanced at Keegan and took a long tbefore reluctantly replying," Hello, Aunt Jaylene." Jaylene said, "It's okay, Keegan. Kids are like that. It's been so long since we last met; she must be shy." Saying this, she took out a box from her bag and handed it to Coco. "Coco, I brought you a gift. Hope you like it." As she spoke, she opened the box.
Inside was a beautiful butterfly hairpin, sparkling with exquisite gemstones, obviously quite valuable.

However, Coco didn't show much interest in the beautiful hairaccessory like other girls her age would. She just glanced at it and looked away, showing little enthusiasm. "So ugly," she muttered softly, causing Jaylene's smile to freeze on her face.
Keegan slammed his hand on the table. "When someone gives you a gift, what do you say? Have you forgotten everything I taught you?" Coco clenched her fists and didn't speak, looking stubborn.
Keegan's gaze darkened, his anger growing. "Cat got your tongue? Speak!"
Jaylene hurriedly intervened, "Forget it, Keegan. Kids say the darndest things, but Coco's temperament is really becoming more like Stella's- straightforward and outspoken." Stella was struck speechless.
