Chapter 1815
Jaylene frequently spoke negatively about Stella, citing instances like Trevor distancing himself fromJaylene after Stella’s return, Wenham’s inclination to give Stella her room, and an incident involvingStella replacing expensive decorations with cheaper items.
At that time, Keegan hadn’t perceived Stella’s actions as inherently wrong. Instead, he harbored apeculiar sensation- a strong urge to meet her face-to-face.
One day, when Jaylene wasn’t present, he ventured out in a car.
Despite not knowing what Stella looked like, the instant he laid eyes on her, he recognized herimmediately.
That day, Stella stood outside the Vinci Rivera office building, dressed in formal attire with her hairelegantly tied back. She had come out to bid farewell to Ted and the others.
Her face boasted exquisite features. Despite the makeup, the weariness in her eyes was evident.
She appeared completely distinct from the person Jaylene had portrayed as frugal and grasping.
She was like a blooming rose, shining among the crowd.
He stared at her for a long time and felt something in his heart. It was not until Jaylene called him andasked him where he was before he hurriedly left.
Jaylene kept a close eye on him. Even when she was not around, she would have at least two peoplein the ward to take care of him.
It felt more like surveillance than care.Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated For AllBooks Updates…
Everything he did and every person he talked to would be immediately reported back to Jaylene.
Though he sensed something was off about Jaylene, he pretended ignorance and didn’t inform herabout secretly meeting Stella. His injuries hadn’t completely healed, and uncertainty loomed over manyaspects, so he opted for inaction.
However, despite his efforts, Jaylene became aware because Stella sought him out.
That day, his wound reopened during the commotion. Numerous medications were administered duringthe stitching process, leaving him in a daze for several days.
When he regained consciousness, the memory of meeting Stella had faded. Strangely, he sensed apeculiar closeness to Jaylene, an inexplicable feeling shrouded in indescribable vagueness.
So, before he could figure out what was happening, he did not want to get Stella involved, acting purelyon instinct.
But Stella did not seem to distance herself from him because of his harsh words.
Instead, she continued to appear around him. Initially contemplating divorcing her once he recovered toprotect her from the chaos, he had a feeling that the situation was somehow linked to the kidnappingcase.
He felt the need to stay around Jaylene to uncover potential clues, and having Stella around would onlycomplicate things.
The news of Stella’s pregnancy caught him entirely off guard.novelbin
When Aldor discussed it with him, his thoughts swirled into chaos. He pondered when it happened, whyStella didn’t inform him, whether she faced difficulties due to the pregnancy, or if she was feelingunwell…
He never doubted for a moment that the baby wasn’t his. He held an inexplicable trust in Stella.Despite Aldor’s mention of his vasectomy, he chose to believe that the procedure had failed, refusing toentertain the notion of betrayal on Stella’s part.
He wasn’t someone who easily placed trust in others.
Similarly, with Jaylene, despite their month-long companionship and her dedicated care, he maintainedhis guard around her.
But it was not the same with Stella. Despite the initial resistance he felt toward Stella, he neverharbored any doubts about her.
Reflecting on his meeting with Stella while he was still recovering from his injuries, his suspicionsregarding Jaylene intensified.
Jaylene’s assertions-that Stella was inexperienced in perfumery and had obtained what was rightfullyJaylene’s due to Wenham’s favoritism-now appeared more dubious to him.
