'It's about time, but Keegan still hasn't called,' Stella wondered to herself.

She got a bit worried and could not help but think if their plan had failed.

So, she called Keegan. After a while, the call connected, but Aldor answered. "Mrs. Kane, it's me."

Stella was taken aback. "Where's Keegan?" "Mr. Kane..." Aldor paused momentarily, then said under Keegan's intimidating gaze, "To make the act more convincing, Mr. Kane drank a couple more drinks and got drunk."

Stella got a little concerned. "Is he okay?"

Aldor said, "He's fine. He drank some tea and will probably sober up in two hours. The plan worked very well. Mrs. Esper and Mrs. Depp left the restaurant angrily. When Mr. Kane wakes up, he'll tell you all the details." "Okay," Stella said but was still somewhat worried about her husband, who had an extremely low alcohol tolerance. "Where is he now? I'll go check on him." "That won't be a good idea. Mrs. Saun looked at Mr. Kane strangely when she left just now. I'm worried that she might have noticed something and is having someone to spy on Mr. Kane. It's better to wait until he wakes up and talk to him about it at home."

Stella had no choice but to suppress her worries and said in a low voice," Then please take good care of him for me. Let him sleep on his side. He tends to vomit when he drinks too much. Put a glass of water next to him." "Sure, don't worry," Aldor responded with a smile.

After hanging up the phone, Aldor turned to the weak-looking man lying on the hospital bed. "If Mrs. Kane knew you risked yourself to get the evidence of Jaylene drugging you and that I helped you cover it up she'd probably stop favoring me."

Keegan snorted before he said, "Why don't you focus on your work instead of always trying to please my wife? I can't have someone like you be my brother-in-law; I just can't stand it."

Aldor laughed. "Well, before I can officially become your brother-in-law, I've got to have a backup plan, right?"

Keegan just had his stomach pumped, and his throat felt very painful. He did not have the energy to argue with Aldor. He stayed quiet for a long time before asking, "You managed to capture everything as I told you to, right?"

Keegan asked him to record the footage in the surveillance room because Stella got jealous easily. He wanted to have some evidence to prove his innocence.

Aldor believed him and went to the surveillance room to "create an opportunity" for Jaylene and help Keegan gather evidence.

However, halfway through, Aldor felt something was wrong when Keegan pretended to have a headache. Keegan had not talked to him or Stella about doing that.

He did not know what Keegan was trying to do until Jaylene fed him the medicine. He immediately understood Keegan's intention then.

Keegan wanted to get solid evidence of Jaylene drugging him to hypnotize him. Although the medicine he took was found to be unsafe, it could not prove that Jaylene knew the purpose of it.

But with the footage now, it was evident that Jaylene knew the medicine could assist in hypnosis, which was why she used it on Keegan.

Even though the use of this medicine in Hustuabourg was in a gray area, this evidence could easily tarnish Jaylene's reputation and ruin her life.

Jaylene was Darcie's cherished treasure. Although Darcie did qe the majorit sharesyifCalihe the

wealth connections she had accumulated over the years could not be easily wiped away.

Besides, Darcie would do anything to achieve her goals. So Aldor figured that this evidence could someday give Stella an upper hand against Darcie when necessary.

But the price to pay was too high. Although Keegan got to the hospital right away to cleanse his stomach, some of the medicine had already entered his system.

Aldor sighed. "You always said to let Mrs. Kane handle her problems herself so she could grow and not see everyone as a good person. What about now?"

Keegan pursed his lips and said, "With me here, she doesn't need to handle this herself." Aldor was speechless.

Meanwhile, Jaylene was in the car, holding her hand over her c esky) When she thay aught abut the last look Keegan gave her, her heart etched, and she sobbed quietly. Darcie felt irritated by her crying and said with a cold face, "How coul
