Chapter 2004
"What?" Stella was taken aback.
Trevor could not help but mock Keegan, "It's been almost two weeks, and he only remembers about it
now? There's probably something wrong with his brain after he fell into the water, or maybe he doesn't
even have one now. His dumbness is beyond my comprehension."
Stella and Keegan fell silent upon hearing what Trevor said.
Although he was not blatantly vulgar, he made Keegan feel awfully humiliated.
Stella asked softly, "Trevor, how did you know Keegan took it?"
Trevor snorted, "I was the one who cleaned up his mess. How could I not know? He should be glad
that I looked through the album before Dad. Otherwise, he would've called the police and gotten this

Keegan was speechless.
After listening to what Trevor said, Stella found out that he had already noticed that one of the pictures
was missing from the album after they had left that day. At that time, he immediately took away a few
more and instructed the maid to say that he had taken them to display in his office if Wenham asked.
This was also why Wenham, who treasured all things Stella-related, had yet to notice the photo's
disappearance even after it had been gone for so long.
It turned out that after she got Keegan drunk and made him reveal his secret, Trevor had already
speculated that he was pretending to have lost his memory because of that missing picture. Moreover,
he had even helped cover up for Keegan without raising any suspicion.
Stella was impressed by how sharp-minded Trevor was.
However, she could not bear to hear Trevor ridiculing Keegan like that, so she defended him, "He was
drunk that day and didn't think of much of the consequences. Trevor, why didn't you tell me earlier if
you already discovered that Keegan was pretending?" "Oh." Trevor said slowly, "Didn't you know? I
thought it was some kind of role-play between you two-an ex-husband with a non-functional brain and a
pregnant ex-wife who wouldn't leave, an inseparable couple battling against the twists of fate."
Stella was at a loss for words upon hearing what Trevor said.
He could be very sarcastic at times. And unfortunately, Stella laded in his crosshair today, becoming
the recipient of his biting sarcasm.
"Trevor, let me tell you some good news."
Trevor then replied in a serious tone, "Is the baby going to have our last name? Other than this, I can't
think of any other good news coming from you two."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmTrevor knew that Keegan was sitting beside her, so he purposely said that to provoke him.
However, he was unaware that Keegan, who was going to become a father, had matured. Instead of
getting angry, he replied calmly, "I don't mind if Stella wants it."
Trevor chuckled sarcastically and said, "Silly girl, don't ever trust a man's words. He would say all sorts
of things to make you happy before the baby is born. I'm pretty sure he's going to say otherwise after
you give birth."
Keegan was surprisingly patient, "I'm going to say the same thing even after Stella gives birth. You're
free to record what I said and see if I keep my word in the future. If I can't do so, you can show
everyone the recording and let them know how dishonorable I am."
Trevor immediately fell silent. He sensed something amiss with Keegan.
'This is not how he'd normally react. He would usually be very mad after hearing what I said. Why is he
so calm and patient this time?' Trevor wondered to himself.
After a moment of silence, Trevor spoke again, "So, what's the good news?"
