Chapter 2203Stella whispered, "I was worried you're still upset with me."
Handing Trevor the breakfast, she asked, "Where’s Dad?" "Dad went to rest. He left around four. He should be here soon.""You've been here all night?"
Trevor opened the bag, taking a bite, "Gotta keep up appearances."With over twenty years of being family, being too nonchalant could easily raise Darcie's suspicions.
Stella glanced at the dark circles under his eyes, feeling a pang of sympathy, ‘There's a restaurant downstairs, grab a seat thereand eat. I'll get you a bowl of soup."
Trevor waved it off. "| drank enough water last night."
Stella was speechless.
That sarcastic streak seemed to be a family trait.
Seeing it in Trevor made Stella realize how stubborn she used to be.
She couldn't help but laugh, "Trevor, did you scare off all your ex-girlfriends with that sarcasm?"
Trevor nodded. "Yep, those with thick skins like Keegan are rare."novelbin
Stella was rendered speechless once more.
In the end, Trevor did join Stella at the restaurant.
According to him, Jaylene was badly injured this time, scratches all over her neck and arms, and a bruise on her forehead.Getting her to the hospital took some time, and now that she had just regained consciousness, she was very weak.
The police have taken statements, but Jaylene didn't accuse Dahlia of fraud; she focused on accusing Kanrara and Blake. Shewas not going to let them off.
Stella quickly deduced Jaylene's reasoning; she didn't dare accuse Dahlia for fear she might succeed, which wouldn't bode wellwith Keegan.
When Stella avoided Dahlia and indirectly led her to the company, she had thoughts of using her as a scapegoat. Although shethought it might not work, she didn't expect it to fail so spectacularly.
"Darcie isn't pursuing it? Jaylene looks terrible, yet she's not angry?"
Trevor finished his porridge and looked up. "Angry? Why wouldn't she be? But in this world, when it comes to parents who careabout their children, who can resist them? Darcie's no exception, and fraud requires evidence; Dahlia's at most borrowing moneyand not returning it."
Stella stirred the porridge for a moment, then said, "She's getting off easy."Trevor raised his gaze. "We could sue her for poisoning.”
Setting down the spoon, Stellareplied, "Trevor, after | divorcedKeegan, | consulted a lawyer.

Trevor fell silent fora moment and asked, "Is it because of Keegan that you don't want to sue?"Stella smiled. "Trevor, why would you think that? It's because | didn’t sue that Keegan feels guilty toward me."Trevor was taken aback.
Stella continued calmly, "Knowingthat | wouldn't win if | sued, the onewho'd bear the bad reputation wouldbe me. But by not suing, Keeganknows the De eae |
