Stella's words left Keegan speechless.novelbin
'How could she say that when she's carrying my child?" Jaylene's face went pale.
"Stella, don't you think asking for that much is too much?" 1 No matter how well Jaylene tried toconceal her feelings for Keegan, Stella's request managed to break through her defenses.
If Keegan publicly declared no connection with Jaylene, it would clarify their relationship and put an endto any hopes she might have.
It was reasonable for her to feel anxious.
Stella explained calmly, "Jaylene, why get so upset? You said you don't have feelings for my fiancé.
But considering his amnesia, you two spend a lot of time together.
What if he starts to develop feelings for you?" "Dad won't let him pursue you when he's alreadyproposed to me.
I asked Keegan to clear things up about our relationship to avoid any conflict.
I don't want to upset my dad.
He has high blood pressure; this situation would stress him out too much." Jaylene's lips trembled.
She was furious.
"Are you really doing this for Dad? Or is it just for your own selfish reasons?" Stella smiled, her eyesgiving off a cold stare at Jaylene.
Her look seemed to say, "So what if it is?" Jaylene's expression turned sour, but Stella didn't bother toglance her way.
Instead, she turned to Keegan and asked, "What's your decision?" Keegan pressed his lips togetherand said, "What if I choose neither?" Jaylene's heart skipped, assuming Keegan's response wasbecause of her.
“Sandra, can you make me acup of coffee?" said Stella.
She locked eyes with Keegan and added, "Double espresso." Keegan's eyelids twitched.
"Hold on." He took a deep breath and asked, "If I make the announcement, will you come stay withme?" Jaylene was left speechless.
Stella shrugged.
"I might consider it." Keegan took out his phone, typed the text, and posted it on Twitter.
Suddenly, Jaylene's phone buzzed.
Stella recognized that it was the ringtone from Twitter.
She watched as Jaylene took out her phone and opened the app.
The next moment, her eyes turned red.
She bit her lip, holding back her voice.
Stella glanced at her phone.
Keegan's post read: (Jaylene sees me as a brother, and I treat her like a younger sister.
This was the case in the past, remains true at present, and will continue to be so in the future] He hadphrased it carefully, intending to clear up any rumors about two sisters sharing a husband.
However, Jaylene seemed visibly upset.
Her face turned pale, and she appeared to find the post disrespectful.
"I don't have many followers on Twitter," Keegan tried to comfort her.
Even though that was true, a few people still shared the post.
Within a minute of Keegan's tweet, Vermont had taken a screenshot and sent it to his group chats.
In less than an hour, more than half of the people within their social circle knew that Keegan hadindirectly turned down Jaylene on Twitter.
"Can we leave now?" Keegan asked.
“I need to pack a few things," Stella replied and headed upstairs.
Jaylene hesitated to speak, tears welling up in her eyes.
After a moment, she lowered her gaze and in a hoarse voice said, "Keegan, what if...
| don't want us to be just like siblings?" Keegan replied, "We can be close friends if that's what youwant." Jaylene was taken aback.
She stared at Keegan in a daze, her face gradually turning ashen.
