Jaylene’s expression stiffened. “That’s not what I meant,” she said.
“Then just play the role of a bystander. Don’t get involved in their affairs,”
Marshall replied.
Jaylene’s complexion did not look good. She walked over to her brother and called out, Trevor.”
Trevor looked at her coldly, “And you claimed you didn’t know where he was.
Hah.”
Jaylene turned pale, “Trevor, I had no choice at the time. I wanted to say something, but Keegan’s condition was so bad.I-” i “Enough!” Darcie interrupted her. “Save it for when we get back.”
Wenham’s expression was already grim. Even if Jaylene’s intentions were unclear to him before, they were now unmistakable, i Darcie had to stop her from continuing to avoid an embarrassing situation, especially since they were at Cordelia’s residence.
Jaylene closed her mouth immediately. She bit her lips and stood beside Darcie with red eyes.
Stella walked behind Keegan, intending to help him with the wheelchair.
However, just as she touched the handles, he said, “I can manage.”
Stella hesitated momentarily but ignored his wishes and pushed the wheelchair forward, “You used to say that the first thing a person should do is fulfill their duties. Your duty now is to be a paraplegic. Don’t act strong in situations like these.”
Keegan was shocked to hear that, “What do you mean, paraplegic? You’re being really harsh.”
“Is that so?” Stella said indifferently. “You like it when I speak harshly; that’s why you got together with me.
Although, I find what I said kinda romantic.”
