Chapter 1734
Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted
âWhy doesnât she visit anymore?â asked Coco.
Keegan shrugged. âHow would I know? Ask her yourself if you want to find out.â
Coco glared at him. âI donât have her number. How am I supposed to ask?â
Keegan glanced at her. âYouâre quite resourceful; you should be able to find her number.â
This remark left Coco fuming.
Keegan stayed for a while, giving feedback on her artwork, which eventually irritated Coco to the extent that she didnât want to interact with him anymore. Eventually, he left the room.
Perhaps influenced by Keeganâs comments or not. Coco felt unsatisfied with her drawing. Just as she contemplated tearing it up to begin anew, she spotted Keeganâs phone on the table, i Remembering Keeganâs earlier teasing, she decided to search for Stellaâs contact in his phone.
Keegan recently switched to a new phone and did not set up a passcode. Coco easily found Stellaâs number. Without much thought, she dialed it.
Stella had just been discharged from the hospital and had arrived at Clouditude International. As she stepped out of the car, her phone vibrated. Surprised to see Keegan calling, she answered.
Even though it seemed strange, Stella felt an impulse to share the news of her pregnancy with Keegan, whether he remembered her or not. Before she could say anything, a young girlâs voice came through the line. âAunt Stella, itâs me, Coco.â
Stella was momentarily stunned. She remembered the child from the memorial service whom Chandler and the others pushed forward.Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated For All Books Updatesâ¦
Stella was in a state of confusion at that time and did not properly greet the child.
Two days ago, Vermont mentioned Aldor telling him that Keegan had maintained a close relationship with Bella because her blood type was compatible with Cocoâs.
Coco suffered from severe anemia, and Keegan had sought Bella to prolong her life.
However, Stella still didnât understand why Keegan had concealed this information. What should have been a straightforward matter turned into a mystery with Keeganâs memory loss.
âHi, Coco,â Stella replied.
Coco was overjoyed upon hearing that and started to ramble.
Listening to Cocoâs excited chatter, Stella sensed that the girl had known her for some time. âPerhaps sheâs a fan.â
Considering this, Stella recalled Cocoâs performance at the memorial service a few days ago. âSheâs undoubtedly talented in acting.â 1 After Coco finished talking, Stella asked, âCoco, how did you get your Uncle Keeganâs phone? Did he ask you to call me?â
Coco shook her head. âNo, he left his phone in my room. I secretly called you. Uncle Keegan has been with Jaylene these days.â
Stellaâs smile faded. âDoes Jaylene visit Uncle Keegan every day?â
Coco nodded. âShe comes every day. Itâs annoying! She even wanted Uncle Keegan to visit her home, and he agreed! It Stella gripped the phone tightly. âYouâre saying Jaylene wants to take Uncle Keegan home with her?â
âYes, I overheard them talking about it. He even had gifts prepared.â i Stellaâs expression turned sour. Apart from a marriage proposal, she couldnât fathom why Keegan would bring gifts and go to the Saun residence with Jaylene.
âThat son of a-â
While Stella was still processing the information, Coco continued, âAunt Stella, where are you? When are you gonna visit me? I want an autographed photo of you.â
Stella rubbed her temples as she thought about what Coco had said earlier. Before she could respond, Marshallâs voice came from behind her. âStella?â
Then Coco heard a loud crash outside her room as if something had fallen
