Chapter 1992
In the car, Aurora, who had abstained from alcohol, took the driver's seat. Keegan settled into the
passenger seat while Stella and Aldor occupied the back, flanking a thoroughly drunken Jaylene.
Throughout Spencer's ramblings, Stella had tested Jaylene's level of intoxication, finding her slurring
her words to the point of incoherence. Stella tapped her fingers against the car window, her face tight
with thought. Abruptly, she turned to Keegan, "Did Jaylene ever give you that drug?"
Keegan's expression tightened, recognizing Stella's line of thought. He said, "That substance is in anovelbin
legal gray area here, but it's banned abroad. It's a psychoactive drug, far from harmless."
Stella's expression darkened further at the thought of Jaylene using such a dangerous drug on
Keegan. She asked, "Where is it now?" "I disposed of it," Keegan responded, his voice firm.
Unconvinced, Stella turned to Aldor, "Where did you put the drug?"
Aldor hesitated before answering, "There are a few pills left in the storage compartment for analysis."
Keegan's face darkened, "Aldor, remember who pays your salary."
Frowning from the driver's seat, Aurora interjected, "Keegan, if your wife asks something, you should
be upfront about it, not take it out on Aldor."
Caught off guard, Keegan queried, "And which side are you on, Aurora?"
Although slightly intimidated, Aurora firmly replied, "You're the boss, but you can't expect Aldor to defy
your wife. He's in a tough spot."
Keegan's cheeks flushed with the realization that he was being ganged up on.
Stella patted Keegan's shoulder and said, "Get me one of those pills.”
Keegan said firmly, "That's out of the question."
Jaylene might be unscrupulous and vicious, but he did not want Stella to stoop to her level.
Stella's frustration peaked, and she threatened, "If you don't give me one, I'll move back to the Saun
residence!"
Keegan, unyielding, replied, "Then I'll move there with you."
Stella, momentarily speechless, voiced her concerns hoarsely, "Keegan, I know you have principles,
but this is not the time to apply them. She drugged you, erased your memory, and might potentially
cause irreversible harm. The thought alone is infuriating!"
As she spoke, her voice trembled.
Keegan's heart softened. He turned to look at her, his gaze tender yet firm," I've arranged for a
hypnotist to deal with Jaylene. It's safer and more ethical. We can't stoop to her level, Stella. Do you
understand?"
Stella gradually calmed down after hearing what Keegan had said. He understood her too well. One
look, and he knew she planned to use the same drug on Jaylene to expose her schemes against him.
He knew everything but would not allow it, thinking more comprehensively. He was worried about
possible repercussions and did not want her to get involved in dirty affairs.
She took a deep breath, finally settling herself down, "Is the hypnotist you found reliable? Will he help
with involuntary hypnosis?"
Keegan hummed in affirmation, "He owes me a favor."
Stella fell silent, contemplating Keegan's approach. Meanwhile, Aurora drove on, her mind swirling with
thoughts, 'Keegan remembered everything.'
