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.”
Stella 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?”
