Chapter 1158

Keegan knew that Stella was asking about Rainee.

Keegan had no answer to that, as Rainee had already passed away.

However, she had so many medical reports of Stella that there was simply no way she was not aware that she and Albert could never give birth to a child of Stella’s blood type.

Keegan kept quiet before saying, “I’m not sure if she knew. Trevor is still looking into it, but her love for you was never fake.”

Stella fell into silence once again.

It lasted a bit longer this time, and it worried Keegan. He was about to say something, but he heard Stella speaking. “I noticed that the day she passed away was my birthday. Did she die from complications during childbirth?”

“Mhm,” Keegan responded.

Stella’s lips trembled. ’It was because of me…”

“It wasn’t.” Keegan cut her off. “All of them were looking forward to seeing you, but accidents do happen, and they’re not something humans can control. The fact that you’re still living well in this world is already their biggest surprise.”

Stella closed her eyes. “I’m a little overwhelmed.”

“It’s fine.” Keegan hugged her and kissed her on the cheek. “You don’t have to see anyone from the Saun family until you’ve made up your mind.”

“Okay.” Stella said before continuing a while later, “Trevor looked so much like me when we were younger.”

Keegan nodded. “It’s true.”

“Did both of you grow up together?”

“Yeah,” Keegan responded. They even used to sit by Jessica and It was just magical now that he thought about it.

Then, Stella asked the question that Aldor dared not to ask, “You didn’t marry me just because I look like Trevor, right? After all, I know it’s hard to let go of a childhood friend.”

Keegan was speechless.

On the same afternoon, Andrea’s parents filed a report at the police station with their lawyer, hoping that the police would reinvestigate their daughter’s case and bring justice to her.

Of course, Keegan was the one who made the arrangement for them.

They had been keeping Andrea’s belongings and her phone, which contained the WhatsApp chat history between her and Bella before and after the incident. The lawyer identified some clues relevant to the case and submitted them to the police. Very soon later, Bella was summoned for questioning.

Despite the attempts to suppress the news, Andrea’s case had gained too much traction to be gone unnoticed. The fact that a popular actress instructed another person to sexually assault her colleague was way too heinous, regardless of who the victim was. That was why it caught the attention of all the media.

So, the news of Bella getting summoned went public overnight.

Her fans were devastated by the continuous unsettling news. Some of her more rational fans had unfollowed her, while some chose to wait for the investigation result before making any decision. Of course, a small portion of blindly loyal fans were still defending here at that time by writing comments like “We’ll always believe in you.’.

The production team of World Peace knew that Bella had messed up this time and decided to stop updating the series on the same night.

An artist management association also published a warning regarding Bella’s situation, and many major brands began deleting Facebook posts related to Bella.

Meanwhile, the production team of The Palace announced that there would be an extra episode to celebrate Thanksgiving right after World Peace announced its hiatus.

Daniel even shared the post.

Stella was shocked and immediately sent him a WhatsApp text: [Mr. Wood, are we taking advantage of them?]

[No. We’re simply kicking them when they’re down.]

Stella was speechless.

“Oh, no! Grab it!”

Felicity’s hand slipped, and the apple fell from the tree, narrowly missing Vermont’s head.

He was wearing a straw head, a sleeveless shirt, and a pair of long pants. He was sweating profusely as he glowered at the woman on the tree,” Miss, how hard is it for you to throw properly?”
