Chapter 107
Keegan got a little annoyed by her attitude, as his voice became unnoticeably deeper. “Don’t your friend
have a phone? Was it so difficult for you to just give me a call?”
“It’s not, but I was worried that you might be too busy to pick up. After all…” Stella paused before
continuing flatly, “You didn’t even have time to let me know that you were leaving.”
Keegan was speechless.
He continued to speak after some time, “Bella got hurt.”
‘He got worried and immediately sent Bella to the hospital because she was hurt. So, he couldn’t find the
time to notify his legitimate wife about it.‘
“Oh,” Stella looked down as she said calmly, “Is she dead?”
Keegan could not help but frown after hearing the mean words Stella said.
“Stella Jewell, did you have to be so evil?”
“I was just asking. Why are you so agitated? It’s not like she’d die just because I asked that question
anyway.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtStella spoke as she went around Keegan.
Keegan looked at her back for a few seconds before trying to catch up to her.
Stella crossed her legs while sitting on the couch. She was eating an apple and scrolling her
iPad at the same time.
Her phone was connected to her tablet, and both of her devices would receive the same messages
simultaneously. So, she could only go through her messages through the iPad now that her phone was
broken.
She ignored Keegan despite hearing his footsteps as she went on to check her mailbox.
Keegan stretched his arm out and touched her dress on the sofa and suddenly asked, “Who gave you
your clothes?”
“The hotel manager.”
Clearly, Keegan did not trust her. “Why would the manager suddenly give you this?”
Stella did not feel like answering his question at all.
Keegan would have known what happened in the washroom last night if he just went to the hotel and
check. Stella refused to believe that Keegan was worried about her.
However, Keegan had no plans to find out what really happened at all since it was his sister who locked
her in there. It would only make sense for him to defend Aurora by acting as if nothing had happened
and brushing it off.
“You should be asking the manager that. Perhaps he thought that I looked very beautiful, so he just felt
like gifting me something.”
Keegan’s eyelid twitched.
Coincidentally, his phone rang. So, he stopped questioning Stella and answered the call.
Stella knew that only Bella would call him at this hour without having to guess at all.
Keegan did not even bother to walk away while talking to that person on the phone. His attitude and tone
took a big turn, and he sounded very gentle.
Stella got mad. So, she made a huge noise while pulling the drawer on purpose.
Keegan glared at her and continued speaking in a very gentle tone. “I’m just glad that you’re okay.”
‘What a scum! Does he think that I’m dead?!‘
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe threw her iPad away as she was about to rage after turning her head around. However, Keegan
handed her the phone. “Grandma wants to talk to you.”
Stella’s fury immediately disappeared into thin air as she took the phone and spoke softly, Grandma.”
Keegan’s mouth twitched.
‘I can’t believe what I’m seeing.‘
“Stella, why didn’t you come to my house? Juno misses you so much that it doesn’t even want to eat its
apples now.
Juno was Cordelia’s horse. It was about 6 foot 5, has dark and shiny hair, and a muscular build. But, its
right eye was blind. Otherwise, it would undoubtedly be an award–winning horse. Cordelia was a very
adventurous person, and she was into fiery horses like Juno.
She met Juno by pure coincidence when she went to a horse racing competition in Yostrain a few years
ago. Juno was only half a year old at that time. Juno could not race because of a keeper’s mistake that
cost it an eye, so it was sold to a farm instead.
However, Juno was a very aggressive and rebellious horse. The owner of the farm would always punish
it by whipping it due to how inexperienced he was with horses.
