Chapter 1911
Keegan bit his lip and forced out a harsh sentence while digging his fingernails into his
palms.
"You must be crazy to say such outrageous things. Why would she bother saving me if she
wanted to harm me?"
Stella put on a disappointed look. "You trust her but not me?"
Keegan's voice was cold. "I only trust what I see."
Tears welled up in Stella's eyes, as she gritted her teeth and said, "Keegan Kane, I really
wish you hadn't come back!"
Keegan felt a pang in his chest, as his fingertips trembled slightly.
Jaylene frowned. "Stella, don't you think what you said is a little too mean?"
"Get lost!"
With a cold face, Stella pushed Keegan aside and directly walked away.
The feeling of her push still lingered in Keegan's chest, as he clenched his fists. His
expression was concealed under the shadow, and Jaylene could not tell what he was truly
feeling.
Then, she asked softly, "Keegan, are you okay? I can't believe what Stella just said. She
should've never cursed you like that no matter what."

Keegan pursed his lips and did not respond to her question.
After some time, he said, How is it? Does your face still hurt?"
Jaylene's eyes turned red. "I'm fine. Keegan, please don't blame Stella. The fact that I
saved you has always bothered her. I’m sure that I'm the one she's against, not you."
Keegan spoke in a cold voice, "You don't have to speak up for her. I've already learned
what kind of person she is during this time."
Jaylene lowered her eyes and thought that the two slaps she suffered had all become
worth it.
She thought about it for a moment but decided to ask anyway, "Keegan, since Stella
hasn't helped you in recovering your memories at all while she was staying at your place,
why don't you ask her to leave? She's too impulsive. I don't care how she treats me, but
I'm afraid that she might do something to hurt you."
Keegan pursed his lips and said, "It's grandma's decision to have her here. There's nothing
I can do if grandma insists.
"It's better for her to stay at my place. You won't feel at peace with her around at home
anyway."
Jaylene was taken aback.
Didn't Keegan ask Stella to leave because he was worried that she might mistreat me at
home?'
Jaylene found it somewhat unbelievable. However, when she looked into Keegan's eyes,
his gaze was gentle and did not seem as if he was lying to her.
Her heart pounded vigorously, and her ears turned red.
"Keegan, y-you..."
Before she could ask her question, Trevor's voice was heard. "Jaylene, dad is calling for
you."
Jaylene recollected herself and swallowed the question she was about to ask. Then, she
cleared her throat and said, "I'm coming."
As she spoke, she looked at Keegan with a gentle gaze that conveyed more than a
thousand words.
"Keegan..."
Keegan replied flatly, "Go on. And, take care."
Jaylene blushed and nodded. Then, she walked away with her fists clenched.
Keegan took a deep breath, glanced in the direction of Stella's room, and felt a lump in his
throat.

At that time, Aldor was accompanying Aurora in playing a shooting game in a bustling
carnival.
Aurora was a typical combination of being bad at the game but still loved to play it. She
had already fired ten shots, but not a single balloon on the wall was popped.
The stall owner was delighted, as he stuffed the bullets for her and said, "You did so much
better in this round than the last one. You're getting more and more accurate. You can
definitely hit them this time."
Unbelievably, Aurora believed him and bought another set of ten bullets.
Just as Aldor was contemplating how to pull her away, Keegan's call came through.
He walked to the side to answer it.
"Let me ask you a question."
Keegan's voice sounded low and deep. "If you accidentally said something really hurtful to
your girlfriend, what would you do to make her feel better?"
"How hurtful?" Aldor asked.
Keegan pursed his lips and said, "Well... scolding her on behalf of another woman."
Aldor was shocked.
Then, he said, "Mr. Kane, I think you should give up and start a new life in another
country."
His response left Keegan utterly speechless. "Did I call you to listen to a joke?"
