Chapter 1670
Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted
The elderly man in a wheelchair watched the unfolding chaos and tried to defuse the situation.
However, his wheelchair slid forward and bumped into Jaylene. Unable to maintain her balance, Jaylene tumbled to the ground.
Meanwhile, the wheelchair was about to tip over when Trevor entered the room.
The girl accompanying him was visibly startled and rushed over to support the wheelchair. Feeling annoyed, she turned to Stella and said, âWhy would you push Jaylene?â Felicity promptly defended Stella and said, âWhen did she do that? The old man slid over in his wheelchair and bumped into Jaylene!â
âWho are you two? How dare you barge into my grandfatherâs hospital room and try to justify your actions?â the girl asked.
Trevor stepped forward quickly to apologize. âSorry, Mr.
Foster. This is my sister, Stella. She probably had something to discuss with Jaylene and followed her here.â
While helping Jaylene up, Trevor pulled Stella aside and whispered, âLetâs talk outside.â
However, Stella resisted and shook off his hand. âTrevor, Keegan is here.â
This statement left Trevor dumbfounded. âWhat?â
âKeegan is here,â Stella repeated urgently. âKeegan is alive, and heâs in this hospital!â
Trevor lowered his voice and asked, âStella, are you sure youâre not just tired?â
âIâm not. Keegan is really here. I saw his handwriting!â Stella insisted.
She led Trevor to the erasable whiteboard in the room and pointed to the bottom right corner. âLook, Trevor. OverWait. Where is it?â Stellaâs expression changed abruptly. The vague writing in the bottom right corner of the canvas was now nowhere to be seen. Her emotions surged, and her eyes reddened.
âDid you erase the writing?â she questioned Jaylene.
Meanwhile, Jaylene looked frightened. âIâ¦â
Stella pulled Trevorâs arm and said, âLook, Trevor. Thereâs a letter âyâ here. Look at how long the tail is.
Keegan always wrote his âyâs like this. Only Keegan would do this, Trevor. He is still alive! He must be in this hospital!â
Trevor looked at the empty bottom right corner of the whiteboard, then glanced at the emotionally charged Stella, and pressed his lips together. âStella, youâve had a long day. Why donât I take you home?â
Stella froze. âYou donât believe meâ¦â She took a step back, and her tone gradually became calm. âIâm not leaving.
Keegan is here, and Iâm not going anywhere!â
Knowing that he needed a delicate approach, Trevor said, âI believe you, Stella.
Iâll help you find Keegan.â
Jaylene tightened her fists, as she observed her brotherâs caring attitude toward Stella.
His love for both of them was clearly different. Trevor had only helped Jaylene briefly when she entered the family. He never inquired about her well-being after that. However, he searched every room in the hospital and even asked about the patients through his connections just to please Stella.
Unfortunately, his efforts were wasted, as they found nothing related to Keegan.
Stella looked distraught. Trevor tried to comfort her and said, âYouâve been exhausted lately. Your emotions are all over the place. Why donât we go home and have a good nightâs rest?â
Stella closed her eyes and gradually calmed down. âTrevor, how did you end up here?â she asked in a low voice.
Trevor explained, âAfter we went our separate ways, Jaylene called to tell me that Mr. Foster wanted to see me. So, here I am. Mr. Foster is our calligraphy teacher. Weâre close even though I didnât attend his classes much.â
Trevor had guessed Matthew Fosterâs intentions upon seeing his granddaughter. He was probably trying to play matchmaker between them.
Trevor contemplated leaving, but with Matthewâs granddaughter already waiting for him at the entrance, he realized that it would be inappropriate to not come up and say hello. He did not expect to encounter a situation like this.
He draped his coat over Stellaâs shoulders and warmly said,â Stop thinking about him. Go home, get a good nightâs sleep, and donât look for him for the next few days. Go out with your friends. Relax a bit.â
Stella was playing with her phone absentmindedly. While she was distracted, she replied, âOkay.â
Then, Felicityâs phone vibrated. It was a text from Stella asking her to find someone to keep an eye on Jaylene. i
