Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted Chapter 1626 [Eleven Jewell]

Keegan closed his mouth and remained silent. Both he and Stella were conserving what little strengththey had left in the freezing night. Stella was drained of energy. Her lips were turning into a bluish huefrom the cold. Her mind was starting to blur, but she clung to the branch with sheer determination.

All of a sudden, a noise echoed from the shore. Stella snapped back to reality and said, “Keegan, they’rehere! They’re here!”

She turned her head, but the person behind her had vanished without her noticing.

The bitter cold seemed to intensify. Stella’s face grew even paler, as she shouted Keegan’s name intothe empty stretch of water. Yet, all that met her

cries was the relentless sound of the flowing river.

Stella released her grip on the branch, intending to swim away. However, she discovered that she wastethered to the branch. Before letting go, Keegan had

mustered the last ounces of his strength to secure her in place with a belt.

Even if she was weak, the belt would provide some support, allowing her to hold on a while longer.

The river water was numbingly cold, causing Stella to be limp long ago. Hence,

she was completely unaware of Keegan’s efforts. Her face turned ashen, and she frantically struggled toremove the belt.

Not long after, the searchlights shone upon Stella. Someone shouted, and several people rushed over.They worked tirelessly to bring her onto the shore.

Stella was crying, as she struggled to get out of the water. The bone-piercing cold, compounded by a dayof anxiety and fear, along with the shock of learning

that Keegan was missing, overwhelmed her. In the end, she lost all consciousness.

Stella was unconscious for three days.

Wenham and Trevor were in distress while they watched over her in the hospital. Both of them were in abad state. They did not dare to inform Edith and Wilfred of the situation. They fear that it would causethem to worry.

When Felicity and Vermont came to visit, they noticed that both men had dark circles under their eyes.Felicity was on the verge of tears at the sight of her best friend on the hospital bed.

Meanwhile, Vermont exchanged a few words with the Sauns and said, “Mr.

Saun, Felicity and I will stay here to take care of things. You and Trevor should go home and freshen up.Get some rest and come back later.”

“I’m not tired,” Wenham said in a low voice.

“It doesn’t matter. You need to rest. Stella hasn’t woken up yet. You wouldn’t want her to worry aboutyour health, would you?” Vermont insisted.

Wenham remained silent for a moment before he said, “Are there any updates?”

Vermont’s face darkened, and Wenham instantly knew the answer. Wenham clenched his fists and didnot speak for a long time. After a while, he said, “If

Stella wakes up, don’t tell her the truth. Just say that Keegan has been taken to Salcator for treatment.”

Wenham knew that Stella was smart, and the excuse would not hold for long.

But he could not bear the thought of his daughter going through another ordeal.

She would be devastated to know that they had not found Keegan yet,

especially since she was willing to jump off a bridge just to save him.

Vermont nodded, and his eyes were red.

Felicity turned away to wipe her tears. She could not believe that Keegan was really gone.novelbin

The search and rescue team had combed through nearly every inch of that river for three full days, butthere was still no sign of Keegan. It was very likely that he had been swept into another river by thecurrent. In that case, the chances of finding him were extremely slim.

Even though the Kane family had kept this incident under wraps, the search and rescue efforts had notceased. However, they were now looking for a dead body.
