Stella was speechless. She then tugged at Keegan's hair and gritted her teeth. "What are you doing?”He pressed her against his chest. "Have you forgotten what you promised me before?" "What?"Keegan swept his glance across her. "You promised to handle my other lover, and I'll handle yours."Stella glowered at him. "Marshall Moore is not my secret lover!"
Keegan sneered. "Then is Jaylene Saun mine?"
Stella was taken aback.
Keegan gazed at her and gave her phone back. Then, he said with lowered eyes, "Forget about what | said. Reply to hismessage yourself. I've said so many hurtful things to you before | recover my memory.
"| get it if you don't trust me. | shouldn't have demanded that you trust me like | trust you."After speaking, he turned over and had his back facing her. "Go answer his call," he said flatly.Stella kept quiet.novelbin
Although he did not say anything to blame her, his words made her feel very uncomfortable. She patted his shoulder and saidsoftly, "It's not that | don't trust you."
Keegan remained silent.
Stella spoke again, "The way you replied was just too rude. It doesn't sound like me at all."
Keegan still refused to turn back to her.
Stella gritted her teeth and handed him her phone. "! didn't say you couldn't reply to his message. Come on, take it."
Keegan finally reacted by turning his head around. He said, "I'm not forcing you to let me reply. It's okay if you don't want me to. |get it."
Stella sighed. "That's enough, darling. Please stop being so petty. Reply with whatever you want."Stella could not believe how Keegan fully embraced her knack for mocking others instead of adopting her good traits.
He turned around, took her phone, and said in a pretentiously reluctant way, "| meant what | said." ‘Hmph! What a schemingman! Stella snorted inwardly.
Perhaps Keegan's word of rejection was too straightforward, but it took Marshall a long time to reply: [I'm sorry for botheringyou.]
Keegan typed: [Instead of being sorry, don't send messages in the middle of the night anymore.]
Stella's eyelid twitched. "How desperate do you want Marshall to know that I'm not the one he's texting?"Keegan scoffed and deleted the text. Then, he asked Stella, "Who is this Luanna Saab he mentioned?"
Stella briefly told him about Luanna. Then, Keegan said, "If he's investigating Luanna’s relationship with others before she died,how could he not know that you haven't been in contact with her for a long time? | think he's just using this as an excuse to talkto you."
Stella said inwardly, ‘Why would he want to talk with me? I'm afraid that he's after you instead.’ "You might be right, but she wasmy classmate. We were pretty close, and now she's suddenly gone. If what's written in the suicide note is true, | can't just ignorehim when he reached out to me to know more about her."
Keegan stared at Luanna's photo and suddenly said, "I feel like I've seen her somewhere before."
Stella thought for a moment and said, "Maybe it was when we got married. She dropped by but did not stay for the dinner. Shegave me a wedding gift and left."
Keegan shook his head. "It was from some other time."
But Stella did not find it strange. "She used to be very famous. Perhaps you've seen her in a drama or an advertisement."
