Chapter 728"I've visited some places nearby, but not the places that are too far away," Jaylene said softly.
"The only thing we have here is shopping malls. There's not much to see. Many tourist attractions have been developed aroundthe city over the years. Maybe Keegan can take you around later."
If Keegan did not realize the purpose of this reunion in the beginning, he would now know after Dahlia's obvious hinting. She liedto him about entertaining his father's old classmates. The true reason he was asked to be there was to get to know Jaylene.
Jaylene accepted the offer but added, "I don't want to trouble Keegan if he has work to do.""| can arrange something," Keegan replied.
Dahlia froze for a moment when she heard that. She was overjoyed. 'This boy finally opened his eyes! | knew he wouldn't be sostupid to be hung up on some woman!
Jaylene's heart was pounding. Thank you, Keegan," she said shyly.
Keegan did not speak. He looked at the Red Agate bracelet on Jaylene's wrist once again. "Can | have a look at that?" he asked."You mean my bracelet?” Jaylene was shocked.
Keegan nodded. "It has a very pretty color. Do you mind if | ask you to take it off for me to see?"
Jaylene's ears turned red. She thought that this was Keegan's way of getting close to her, and she could not help but feelflattered. She took the bracelet off her wrist and handed it to Keegan.novelbin
"Do you like Red Agate too, Keegan?"
’Just so-so," Keegan said lightly. ‘Stella likes it,’ he thought. 'She likes jade, emerald, and onyx, which all suit her well. This brightred color should look good on her.’
Keegan did not know much about gemstones and jewelry. He just liked the shiny, bright, and ruddy color of the beads. ‘It looksmuch better than the ones Stella had bought before. That thing broke when we went to a party, and two beads fell out. Stella wasso sad when she could not find them.’
Thinking of that, Keegan asked, ’Where did you buy this bracelet?”"Oh, this? | saw it ina pawn shop when | was abroad. | thought it looked nice, so | bought it," Jaylene said softly.
Keegan looked a little disappointed when he heard that. ‘How will | get my hands on this thing if she found it at some randompawn shop?"
He then handed the bracelet to her. Jaylene reached out to take it, but Keegan did not let go. She tried to pull the bracelet awayagain, but Keegan's grip still did not loosen. Instead, he frowned as he stared at the bracelet.
“If you like it, | can give it to you," Jaylene paused and said tentatively.
Keegan's frown quickly went away as he said, "Thank you." He then grabbed the Red Agate bracelet.
Jaylene was at a loss for words. She opened her mouth to say something but closed it right after. ‘That bracelet looks better on awoman. Why would a man like Keegan want it that much?"
While Jaylene was thinking about it, Keegan suddenly said, ‘Can | get your number?"
Dahlia beamed with joy when she heard Keegan say that. "Yes, yes. Give her your contact information. It would be much moreconvenient for you guys to contact each other in the future.”
Jaylene was momentarily surprised and blushed. This was not the first time someone had asked for her number, but it was thefirst time she felt so nervous.
“Keegan used to play with you all the time when you two were younger, but you guys seem rather distant now," Darcie smiledand said.
“Well, it's not surprising since they haven't seen each other all these years," Dahlia said.
Jaylene blushed and entered her phone number in Keegan's phone. When Keegan saved the name of the contact, he wrote,[Red Agate Seller]. He then sent a message to Aldor, which asked him to check the price of the stone.
[OK,] Aldor replied.
