Chapter 779
‘Just pretend it's not love. Wait until she dates and marries someone else, and your symptoms would be gone," his friend said.“Are you still playing?"
Vermont was about to say "continue" when Felicity called him. Vermont instantly forgot what he just told himself, and picked upthe phone. After he answered, he regretted it. He wanted to hang up, but he could hear Felicity sobbing. "Stinky Cucumber...What should | do? | killed someone..."novelbin
Vermont stood up abruptly and asked, "What's wrong? Take your time and tell me."
Felicity spoke on and off about what had happened just now. She said someone was hitting Stella, so she used a vase to smashsomeone to death. Stella was going to take the blame. Vermont was listening to Felicity's jumbled words but managed to makesense of them.
There was something going on next door. Vermont comforted Felicity and went into the bathroom to drag Keegan out. Keeganwas still shirtless, so he frowned and asked, 'What happened?"
"Something bad happened with your wife. Someone barged into her house and hit her!"
Keegan did not even bother to wear his jacket. He grabbed his towel and followed Vermont to 901. When they both got there,they saw Blake lying on the floor with broken pieces of porcelain scattered everywhere. Dahlia was kneeling beside him, cryingloudly, while Stella stood guard near the dining table with flowers in her hand.
Dahlia stood up with red eyes after seeing Keegan. "Keegan! Stella's gone crazy. She hit your uncle until he passed out. Call thepolice and have her arrested now!"
Stella was speechless. She was just worried that Dahlia would drag Felicity down with her. It seems like Stella overestimated herintelligence. Keegan walked up to Stella. As he got close to Stella, he saw her slightly swollen cheek. His face immediatelydarkened at the sight. "Did Blake hit you?"
Stella nodded and said, "He didn't take advantage of me. | hit his balls."
Keegan was dumbstruck. He suddenly thought Stella had shown mercy on him when she hit him with the water bottle. If she hadbeen more vicious, he might have needed to see a urologist. Keegan took the flowers from Stella's hand and carefully inspectedher palm. The vase did not hold roses, so it did not pierce her hand. He gently brushed the dust off her palm.
Dahlia had a grimacing look on her face when she saw Keegan being gentle with Stella. To her, it was like Stella had bewitchedKeegan." Keegan, look at your uncle! This was all her doing. Are you still worried about her?"Keegan gave Dahlia a cold glance and did not answer her questions. Instead, he asked, "Why are you here?"
Dahlia lacked confidence but instantly regained her composure. "You're asking me? For Aurora, of course. You wouldn't let mebail her out, so | had to think of something else. | couldn't just sit and watch my daughter suffer in there!"
Keegan's expression became serious. "Aurora purposely poured boiling water on others. This is considered intentional harm. Asher mother, you didn't correct her behavior and even took her side. If you easily let her off the hook now, she might dare tocommit more illegal acts in the future."
"Nonsense!" Dahlia exclaimed angrily. "Aurora's still a kid. She still has no idea about the severity of her actions. She wouldrealize her mistakes if you let her out now. How could she possibly repeat her mistakes?"
Keegan smirked. "She's a kid? What 23-year-old is still a kid? Stella married me at twenty-two. According to your logic, Stellawas still a kid back then, wasn't she? Why didn't you protect Stella when Aurora played a prank and sent her to Jackson's room?”
