Chapter 1786
Ignoring Stella, Keegan strode past the wedding photos and placed her luggage on the table. Thehousekeeper, Maria, who had been upstairs tidying, came down upon hearing the commotion. Shegreeted them with a smile, “Sir, Madam, welcome back.”
Keegan nodded briefly and indicated the items on the table,” Maria, could you assist Ms. Hall in gettingher luggage to the guest room?”
Maria looked surprised, “Guest room?”
Keegan affirmed, “Ms. Hall is here to help me recover my memory. She’ll be staying here for a while.Please help her settle in.”
Maria was aware of Keegan’s amnesia but didn’t expect it to be this severe, with him not recognizingStella.
Recalling Cordelia’s instructions, Maria hesitated, “Sir, the guest rooms are currently unavailable.”
Keegan was taken aback. “None of the guest rooms are usable?”
Maria explained, “That’s correct.”
Keegan felt skeptical and decided to open each door, one by one. To his surprise, except for the masterbedroom, none of the other rooms had beds.
Maria stood there, wearing an awkward smile.
It seemed Cordelia had ordered the beds in the other rooms to be dismantled overnight, perhapsintending to confine the two of them to one bed.
Keegan pursed his lips, casting a glance at Stella.
Raising an eyebrow, Stella remarked, “You don’t think I asked Grandma to do this, do you?”
Keegan remained silent.
Stella chuckled, “What can I do to you? Can you even get the task done if you’re unwilling to be withme?”Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated For All Books Updates…
Keegan was stunned by her words. His ears turned red, a mix of embarrassment and irritation flashingacross his face. “What nonsense are you talking about? I did it for the sake of your reputation!”
“What reputation do I have left if you’re divorcing me?” Stella shot back, tossing her luggage into aroom. She then
retrieved her phone and dialed a number. “Hello, I’d like to order a bed. Yes, right now. I’ll send you theaddress.”
After ending the call, Stella turned to Keegan and remarked,” Alternatively, you could disassemble thecabinet in this room. I’ll arrange to have a whole set of furniture delivered.”
Keegan left the room, rubbing his temples in exasperation.
Aldor had previously mentioned Stella had a good temper, but Keegan couldn’t see that side of her. Hefelt he had no option but to endure it. He had a sense that he had brought this situation upon himself.
And indeed, that was the case.
Keegan didn’t stay much longer after that. Instead, he headed to Vinci Rivera.
It was his first visit to the company since his return, and there were numerous miscellaneous matters toaddress, keeping him occupied until after 7:00 p.m.
The people on his team were thinking of a gathering to welcome Keegan back and lift his spirits.
Keegan agreed to the gathering, and while he was preparing, he came across a hand-drawn picture ina drawer of his office desk.
The drawing depicted a woman in a gown, holding a dog.
Suddenly, he remembered the large wedding photo at Royalpark Villa.
In that photo, Stella was wearing a red gown, standing next to him. Her pose and demeanor in thephoto were an exact match to the hand-drawn portrait, except in the drawing, she was holding a dog inhis place, with a leash.novelbin
Keegan glanced at the signature below the drawing-Stella Jewell.
Beneath the signature was a date from April of the previous year.
