Chapter 2085
It was not until Keegan took the watering can from Stella's hand that she regained her
senses.
"I'm back," Keegan said.
He sat down next to her and asked in a low voice, "Is everything okay?"
Stella said, "Keegan, have you been to The Hox Club?"
Keegan's expression remained calm. "Do you want to know if I have anything to do with
Luanna's death?"
Stella frowned. "Of course, I know it has nothing to do with you. I just want to know what
you were doing there at that time. Be honest and tell me everything. We've got to plan our
next step very carefully."
Stella finally figured everything out after listening to Keegan. He had mentioned before
that Luanna looked familiar, probably because he had seen her once in the club.

However, it was perfectly normal that he could not
remember her immediately as it was just a passing encounter. What Stella was worried
about now was that Luanna's case might involve him.
The photo was like a time bomb. Even if he had nothing to do with it, there would still be a
chance of him being implicated.
Keegan looked at her worried expression and chuckled. Then, he took her hand and asked
softly, "Is this the only thing you've been worried about all afternoon?"
Stella pulled her hand back and glared at him. "Stop fooling around! This is very serious. If
it is true that Luanna was lured into consuming drugs at that party, can you, as someone
who attended the party, stay clear of it?
"If this matter gets publicized, no one's going to think that you're innocent even if you had
done nothing to her!"
Keegan had come so far to finally be powerful enough in the company to keep Chandler in
check. If this matter got out, Chandler would surely use it against him. How could she not
be worried?
Keegan asked again, "What exactly did Marshall show you?"
"A photo of you and Luanna in a private room at The Hox Club. Marshall told me that was
when she got exposed to drugs. Do you understand how serious this can get now? What
were you doing in that club?"
Keegan gently patted her shoulder and reassured her, "It was a meeting with a client. I
only found out that it was a shady gathering when I got there and left shortly after. But I
can confirm that Luanna did not take any drugs there."
Stella paused. "What?"
Keegan recalled what happened that night and said slowly, "When you showed me
Luanna's photo, I felt she was familiar, not because I saw her at the party. The lights were
dim in the private room. I wasn't wearing glasses, so I couldn't really see anyone's faces in
there.
"However, something happened that day. There was a person who fell off the building and

"I met Luanna at the police station. She was terrified and crying the whole time, so she
caught my attention. Everyone at the club that night was taken in for urine tests. I only
found out later that the person who died had overdosed, hallucinated, and fell to their
death. The police suspected someone was selling drugs in The Hox Club.
"If your classmate took drugs that time, she wouldn't have passed that urine test."
Stella frowned. "Did Marshall not know this?"
"He couldn't have found out," Keegan continued flatly. "The Hox Club is only visited by
wealthy individuals from influential families and celebrities. That was also the first time
Ricky got exposed for taking drugs.
"His family did everything in their power to keep it down. No one would want to go against
the Adam family. It was not a noble thing to begin with, so nobody really talked about it."
He rubbed Stella's hair as he added, "There's no need to worry about me. If this really gets
out, the police will still have my test records from back then. I'll be fine."
Stella finally felt relieved. After a while, she asked again, "Don’t you find this whole thing
strange? How did Lina coincidentally find Marshall for help, and she coincidentally
happens to have a group photo with you in it?"
Keegan lowered his gaze and said, "I'm more inclined to believe that someone
intentionally showed Marshall that photo, which is why he took on this case."
