Chapter 2316 Leighton now saw Keegan through the lens of a brother.
Keegan had helped him fix bugs in his gcompany, taken him to the hospital in the middle of the night, and even arranged for fish soup to be delivered late at night. Compared to Trevor, who was always causing trouble, Keegan was a thousand times better! So, when Keegan asked, Leighton spilled everything.

After you had your accident, a lot of people started approaching my parents to introduce suitors for her, all from the capital." Leighton's mom was famous in the capital years ago, and people still remembered her beauty. With such good genes, many wanted to marry into the Hall family.
When Keegan's fate was uncertain, matchmakers started to get restless. After Keegan returned with amnesia, people openly sent profiles of eligible young men to Leighton's parents.
At first, his parents didn't dare mention it to Stella. But after three months with no sign of Keegan's memory returning, and given how impressive sof the suitors were, they started secretly pushing people to Stella.
As Keegan listened, his face darkened. Just last week, he had sent a Luna to Leighton's grandparents through Leighton's father, who had thanked him kindly while secretly playing matchmaker behind his back.
Keegan kept his emotions in check and asked calmly, "When did your parents start introducing suitors to your cousin?" Leighton thought for a moment and said, "At least half a month ago. My mom mentioned it toover a week ago. She's been giving Stella their Whatcontacts so that they can chat directly." Keegan's face turned even greener.
Half a month... and they added each other on WhatsApp! Great! She hadn't mentioned a word about this to him, despite sleeping next to him every night! Her lips were sealed tighter than a spy's! He was fed up with pretending to have amnesia. It was bad enough that her family thought he was a jerk, but now his wife was secretly "dating" behind his back! Looking at his clear-eyed brother-in-law, Keegan took a deep breath and asked, "Do you know the matchmaker your parents used?" Leighton replied honestly, "Yes, it's my childhood friend's mom." Keegan, with a friendly tone, said, "I have a good friend, about my age, divorced, no kids. Ask the matchmaker to introduce him to her." Leighton looked at him in shock, finally saying, "Brother-in-law, aren't you afraid you'll regret this once you get your memory back?"

Keegan replied, "He won't mind. He doesn't plan on having kids himself. If raising a child is too much for them, I can help out." Leighton thought Keegan was truly a stable and understanding man, even in the midst of amnesia.
He relaxed, "Alright, then sendyour friend's Whatand details, and I'll let the matchmaker know." Keegan sincerely said, "Thanks."
As soon as Keegan left the hospital, he received a friend request on one of Leighton's secondary Whataccounts from someone named " Prosperous Blossoms," with a note saying, "Are you the one Leighton introduced?" X
