Chapter 1699"What did you say?’For a moment, Stella thought that she had misheard Keegan's words.
Keegan looked at her emotionlessly. "I said, | want to break off the engagement. | don't remember anything about our past, and |have no feelings for you now."
Stella's breath hitched, and her firm belief that Keegan was pretending to have lost his memory began to waver.
"What did Jaylene feed you? Or, is she using something to threaten you? What kind of nonsense are you talking about?Keegan Kane, this isn't an idol drama. Stop fooling around!" i
Keegan's face remained expressionless, despite what Stella said.
“If | remember our relationship, why would | not want to marry you? Honestly, | can't remember who you are."
The calmer he appeared, the more anxious Stella got.
"You remember Vermont, my brother, and everyone else, yet I'm the only person that you don't remember? Do you think I'llbelieve you? Are you mad at me because you saw the rumors online? Is that why you're pretending not to
remember me? Who are you trying to scare?” Stella was on the verge of tears, and she could barely speak properly." They allsaid that you were dead, but | don't believe it. |
knew you must be alive, but | don’t know why you just wouldn’t show up. | got together with Mr. Moore, no, we didn't gettogether... | mean, | intentionally let the media catch us together so that you'll see it and get worried. You always hated megetting close to him, right? | figured that you'd surely show up when you saw the news, and look, you really did..." ”
Keegan looked at her indifferently and said without holding back, "I didn’t come back because | read the news. Jaylene told meabout the funeral, so | thought it was finally time for me to show up. You and Marshall... No, you and anyone else, it's all thesame to me. Even if we were deeply in love, to me now, you're just a stranger. | don't reciprocate your feelings at all."novelbin
Stella's expression turned extremely unpleasant. She fought back the pain in her heart and said in a hoarse voice, "But, |remember everything. How can you break off the
engagement just because you don't? | don't agree with this! It's okay if you can't remember anything now. We have a lot of time,and I'll help you retrieve your memories bit by bit. You'll eventually remember me."
Keegan kept quiet for some time before he said in a low voice, "The doctor said that the probability of me recovering mymemories is very low. In other words, | may never remember anything from before." 1
Stella's body stiffened, and it took her some time before she replied, "Let's consult more doctors, then. I'm sure that we can worksomething out with how advanced the technology is now."
Keegan said, "That's a story for another time. Now, | just want to break off the engagement with you. | don't remember anythingabout us, but you remember everything very clearly. This unequal relationship makes me uncomfortable, and | don't want to livewith this guilty feeling.”
Stella could not bear it anymore. "I didn't ask you to feel guilty. | just want you to be cured. If you can't remember anything, we'lljust find a way to jog your memory. Why are you so desperate to push me away? Did you lose your
memory or your mind? How can an engagement hinder you in any way?""But, I—"
"Shut up!" Stella shouted with reddened eyes. "| don't want to hear you speak! Your brain isn’t working well, and you should justkeep your mouth shut. Stop saying things to anger me!"
Keegan remained silent.Then, he said, "You were the one who wanted to speak to me privately.”
"Just shut up already!"
Keegan stopped talking for a while before he asked, "When are we going to break off the engagement?"
Stella's anger surged again. "Are you sure you want to do that?"
Keegan nodded.
"Fine." Stella chuckled, even though her heart was breaking." We'll break off the engagement once your body fullyrecovers.”
Keegan was about to breathe a sigh of relief when he heard Stella saying, "But, you can't refuse to see me before your bodyrecovers.”
Keegan frowned. "We're going to break up eventually. Is there still a reason for us to meet?"
"Yes!" Stella continued in a hoarse voice, as her eyes reddened, "Every scar on your body is a testament to your love for mewhen you protected me. | won't be able to rest easy until | see for myself that you're completely fine!"
Keegan gulped, and it took him some time to say, "Okay, then. I'll promise you that."
After a brief pause, he asked, "Any other requests?" i
