"What's wrong with that? He's Stella's fiance. Why would you want to get so close to him?" said Darcie.
Jaylene frowned. "This is not what you said back then. You even had Ms. Crosby try to match US up.
You-" "Don't talk about the past," Darice cut her off, ' Back then, Stella had not returned to the Hall
family, and they were still divorced, so I supported you. But now Stella is your stepsister, and she's
engaged to Keegan.
"What will others say about you if you keep seeing him? Are there no other men in Rivera? Why do you
have to mess around with someone else's fiance?"
Darcie's harsh words made Jaylene look somewhat embarrassed. Then, Jaylene bit her lip and said
softly, "What if Keegan likes me?"
Darcie replied coldly, "Do you think he'll fall for you just because you took care of him for a few days
after he lost his memory? If that's the case, he'd also like every nurse and doctor who pulled him back
from the brink of death.

She would never allow Keegan to marry you, and Keegan listens to everything she says.
"So, are you planning to be his secret lover? Also, have you thought about what would happen if he
suddenly recovered his memory when you two overcame everything and eventually got together?
"Jaylene Saun, you and Keegan were not even supposed to spend those days together. Once he
remembers Stella and everything between them, do you think you'll stand a chance against her?
"All the scars and wounds on his body came from protecting Stella, and he even put Stella as the main
beneficiary in his will. The weight Stella holds in his heart is not something you can surpass by just
saving his life. What will you do then?"
Jaylene had never thought so far ahead. She just wanted to be with
Keegan as soon as possible; otherwise, she wouldn't have hired a hypnotist to erase his memory.
She was on the brink of achieving her goal when Darcie suddenly stood against her, causing great
upset.
Darcie understood how deeply Jaylene loved Keegan. When news of Keegan getting married spread,
Jaylene fell ill. It was during a flu epidemic in the country they were in, affecting both Darcie and
Wenham.
So, they couldn't go back to Hustuabourg for the wedding.
The family doctor, who looked after Jaylene, took out a notebook from her room, and every page was
filled with her admiration for Keegan.
So, after Keegan and Darcie split up, Darcie thought it might be nice to set up Jaylene and Keegan.
She wanted Jaylene to have a happy marriage. 1
But here's the thing: Keegan didn't have any romantic feelings for Jaylene. So, Jaylene's dream of a
happy marriage with Keegan couldn't happen.
"I'm kinda feeling bad about telling you not to date before. If you met more people, you'd see that
Keegan isn't all that special.
"Even though he's super loyal, loving him when he's into someone else is just gonna hurt you.
"Instead of wasting time on a guy who's got someone else in his heart, focus on your career.

"Once you're in charge of Caline, you can choose any guy you want. You'll be the one doing the
picking, not waiting around."
Darcie's words made a lot of sense and were pretty forward-thinking. But when you're deep in love, it's
like talking to a wall.
Jaylene asked, "What about you? You stayed with Dad even though he couldn't get over his dead wife.
In the end, you still got what you wanted, right? If you can do it, why can't I?"
Darcie's expression darkened. "I can do it because my rival is a person who's not alive anymore.
'However much your dad misses her, she's not coming back. Instead, he'll always appreciate how
devoted I was, taking care of his mom and risking my life to find him in that dangerous place!
"He saw all the effort, the blood, climbing those rocks to desperately search for him. He knows how
important he is to me. That's why, even if he doesn't love me the same, he won't easily leave me.
" And you? Your rival is alive and well. She was married to Keegan for a few years and jumped in the
water to save him without thinking. What can you do to compete with that?
" Sure, you saved Keegan, but can you openly say what you did to save him?
