"I've visited some places nearby, but not the places that are too far away," Jaylene said softly.
"The only thing we have here is shopping malls. There's not much to see. Many tourist attractions have
been developed around the city over the years. Maybe Keegan can take you around later."
If Keegan did not realize the purpose of this reunion in the beginning, he would now know after Dahlia's
obvious hinting. She lied to him about entertaining his father's old classmates. The true reason he was
asked to be there was to get to know Jaylene.
Jaylene accepted the offer but added, "I don't want to trouble Keegan if he has work to do."
"I can arrange something," Keegan replied.
Dahlia froze for a moment when she heard that. She was overjoyed. 'This boy finally opened his eyes! I
knew he wouldn't be so stupid to be hung up on some woman!'
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtJaylene's heart was pounding. ’Thank you, Keegan," she said shyly.
Keegan did not speak. He looked at the Red Agate bracelet on Jaylene's wrist once again. "Can I have
a look at that?" he asked.
"You mean my bracelet?" Jaylene was shocked.
Keegan nodded. "It has a very pretty color. Do you mind if I ask you to take it off for me to see?"
Jaylene's ears turned red. She thought that this was Keegan's way of getting close to her, and she
could not help but feel flattered. She took the bracelet off her wrist and handed it to Keegan.
"Do you like Red Agate too, Keegan?"
’Just so-so," Keegan said lightly. 'Stella likes it,' he thought. 'She likes jade, emerald, and onyx, which
all suit her well. This bright red color should look good on her.'
Keegan did not know much about gemstones and jewelry. He just liked the shiny, bright, and ruddy
color of the beads. 'It looks much better than the ones Stella had bought before. That thing broke when
we went to a party, and two beads fell out. Stella was so sad when she could not find them.'
Thinking of that, Keegan asked, ’Where did you buy this bracelet?"
"Oh, this? I saw it in a pawn shop when I was abroad. I thought it looked nice, so I bought it," Jaylene
said softly.
Keegan looked a little disappointed when he heard that. 'How will I get my hands on this thing if she
found it at some random pawn shop?'
He then handed the bracelet to her. Jaylene reached out to take it, but Keegan did not let go. She tried
to pull the bracelet away again, but Keegan's grip still did not loosen. Instead, he frowned as he stared
at the bracelet.
"If you like it, I can give it to you," Jaylene paused and said tentatively.
Keegan's frown quickly went away as he said, "Thank you." He then grabbed the Red Agate bracelet.
Jaylene was at a loss for words. She opened her mouth to say something but closed it right after. 'That
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmbracelet looks better on a woman. Why would a man like Keegan want it that much?'
While Jaylene was thinking about it, Keegan suddenly said, 'Can I get your number?"
Dahlia beamed with joy when she heard Keegan say that. "Yes, yes. Give her your contact information.
It would be much more convenient for you guys to contact each other in the future."
Jaylene was momentarily surprised and blushed. This was not the first time someone had asked for her
number, but it was the first time she felt so nervous.
"Keegan used to play with you all the time when you two were younger, but you guys seem rather
distant now," Darcie smiled and said.
"Well, it's not surprising since they haven't seen each other all these years," Dahlia said.
Jaylene blushed and entered her phone number in Keegan's phone. When Keegan saved the name of
the contact, he wrote, [Red Agate Seller]. He then sent a message to Aldor, which asked him to check
the price of the stone.
[OK,] Aldor replied.
