Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted (Stella and Keegan) -
Chapter 1891
Stella did not say anything. Instead, she patted Keegan's back absentmindedly and said after a long silence, "Since when did you remember?"
Keegan looked puzzled and was completely unaware of what she was asking about.
'I wonder what's going on in his head right now...' Stella thought to herself.
Suddenly, Stella's phone vibrated. She grabbed it and glanced at it.
There was a text from Trevor. [Remember to look at what's in the first layer of the gift box.] Stella was stunned, as she wondered what it could be that Trevor had to specifically text her to remind her about it. As she thought about it, she got out of the car to retrieve the gift box. It was a document packaged in a paper bag.
She returned to the car, turned on the overhead light, and took out the contents.
When she flipped through the first page, her expression subtly changed.
It was information about Raynard that she had asked Trevor to investigate.
She did not think much about it before the investigation. She just wanted to know if the doctor hired by Jaylene was really as good as she claimed. After all, Raynard had a very limited track record in Hustuabourg, as he mainly practiced overseas.
Unexpectedly, the investigation raised some suspicions about him.
Hypnosis...
Stella thought about the sound of a wind chime that came from Jaylene when she was eavesdropping on Jaylene and Keegan's conversation. After hearing that sound, Keegan immediately acted a little unusual.
However, Stella still thought that Keegan was probably just pretending.
She never had any encounters with hypnosis, so she wondered if that wind chime sound was an attempt by the hypnotist to manipulate Keegan's mind.
'But, how could someone as mentally resilient as Keegan be easily hypnotized?' Stella wondered.
She furrowed her brows, and a thought struck her mind. Suddenly, she remembered the medicine that Keegan had taken.
'The painkiller... What exactly is it?' Stella's expression changed, as she immediately turned to search Keegan's body.
"Where's your medicine?" Stella's voice trembled slightly. Her hands moved from his chest to the pockets on both sides. As she searched for the medicine, she said, "Keegan, where's your medicine? Give it to me."
Keegan paused. Then, he slowly took out a familiar medicine bottle from behind.
"This one?"
Stella snatched it and opened it with her shaking hands. The bottle was more than half full just a few days ago. Now, it only had a few pills left.
Her face turned pale. "Why did you take so many of it?"
Keegan then responded as though he was a child who had done something wrong. "It tastes good."
"This is medicine, not candy!" Stella was so angry that her voice trembled even harder.
Feeling wronged, Keegan then replied in a low voice, "It really does taste good."
As he spoke, he took one of the pills and placed it near Stella's mouth. Just as Stella was about to scold him for doing that, she suddenly smelled a faint milk fragrance.
She paused and licked it. Then, Keegan took the opportunity and stuffed it in her mouth.
Stella blinked her eyes continuously and said after a while," Is this a milk tablet?"
Keegan nodded and said with a bit of frustration, "They just won't make me some strawberry-flavored ones."
His response left Stella utterly speechless.
'Does he think he looks very cute by saying that?' Her tense heart relaxed slightly. 'It turns out he knew that there was something wrong with the medicine a long time ago,' Stella thought to herself.
As she thought about how Keegan probed Jaylene earlier, she could not help but wonder if Keegan only pretended to have lost his memories because he wanted to replace out what Jaylene had been hiding from him.
However, Stella still could not figure out when Keegan had recovered his memory. Stella continued to question Keegan for a long time, but Keegan rambled on without giving her any answer.
Although Stella did not manage to get the information she wanted, Keegan's talkative nature after drinking took over.
"Stella, is the baby acting up?"
"Not really."
"Stella, when should we get married?"
"Didn't you want to break off the engagement?"
