Chapter 2001"Sure." Keegan was surprisingly compliant.
Then, he took some clean clothes and went to the bathroom while Stella lay on the bed and watched those videos and photosafter she changed into her pajamas.
It was like Jaylene had a pathological obsession with Keegan. She seemed to particularly enjoy the time when he lost his abilityto walk, and she had to take care of him. She would appear in almost every video she took during that time. There was also avideo that recorded the entire process of Keegan being hypnotized.
During the process, he had not yet recovered, and his body was still very weak. That was the time when his mental state was themost fragile, and it was reflected as such. The hypnotist tried three times without success until Keegan took the medication in theend.
The attempt was not smooth as Keegan kept resisting mentally, so he looked painfully distressed in the video.
His resistance became more apparent, especially when the hypnotist suggested that he and Jaylene were childhoodsweethearts and loved each other. After all, hypnosis cannot alter memories.
After the failed attempts, the hypnotist suggested erasing his memory first. Then, he would give Keegan a psychologicalsuggestion, where upon hearing a certain sound, he would subconsciously rely on and trust Jaylene.novelbin
Stella did not know whether to praise her for being so committed because she did such outrageous and insane things for love orto mock her for being foolish enough to keep the evidence of hypnotizing Keegan on her phone.
As she was almost done going through the videos, Keegan came out of the bathroom.
Stella wanted to ask if he had obtained any information from Jaylene during the hypnosis earlier. But the moment she looked up,she saw Keegan walking toward her in a towel, dripping wet.
That was the first time he appeared in front of her like that since he returned from his disappearance.
He had not dried the water from his body, and droplets from his hair were falling on his chest and collarbone.
His fair and smooth skin had many deep and shallow scars. The one on the side of his waist looked particularly obvious.Stella's eyelid twitched abruptly. She asked, "What happened to your clean clothes?"
Keegan answered, "I dropped them in the bathtub. They're all wet now.”
As they spoke, the droplets on his body streamed into the towel tied around his waist.
She could not help but look at that, too.
Then, she immediately averted her gaze, "Can't you just tell me that in the bathroom? | would've brought you a new set.”Keegan replied softly, "I didn't want you to wait too long. Besides, you're pregnant now and need to have enough rest."
He reached for her ankle as he spoke, "You walked so much today; are your legs sore? | learned some massaging techniquesfrom the physician when | was in rehabilitation. Please allow me."
Stella was speechless.
"Keegan Kane, don't try to distract me with this. It's not going to work."Keegan smiled at her as he gently replied while massaging her calf, "I just want you to relax a bit."He then knelt on one knee and continued massaging her.
Stella had to admit that it felt good. However, as she was about to say something, she saw the scar on the side of his waist whenshe lowered her head.
Then, she saw more scars on his chest and back.
Suddenly, interrogating him with the questions she had prepared became difficult, so she just kept quiet.As Keegan massaged her legs, he asked softly, "Why aren't you speaking?"
Stella snorted, "You're trying so hard to make me shut up. What else can | say?”
Keegan chuckled upon hearing that. Then, he raised his gaze and asked her with a smile, "Is it that obvious?"
