‘It's about time, but Keegan still hasn't called,’ Stella wondered to herself.
She got a bit worried and could not help but think if their plan had failed.
So, she called Keegan. After a while, the call connected, but Aldor answered. "Mrs. Kane, it's me."
Stella was taken aback. "Where's Keegan?" "Mr. Kane..." Aldor paused momentarily, then said under Keegan's intimidating gaze, "To make the act more convincing, Mr. Kane drank a couple more drinks and got drunk."
Stella got a little concerned. "Is he okay?"
Aldor said, "He's fine. He drank some tea and will probably sober up in two hours. The plan worked very well. Mrs. Esper and Mrs. Depp left the restaurant angrily. When Mr. Kane wakes up, he'll tell you all the details." "Okay," Stella said but was still somewhat worried about her husband, who had an extremely low alcohol tolerance. "Where is he now? I'll go check on him." "That won't be a good idea. Mrs. Saun looked at Mr. Kane strangely when she left just now. I'm worried that she might have noticed something and is having someone to spy on Mr. Kane. It's better to wait until he wakes up and talk to him about it at home."
Stella had no choice but to suppress her worries and said in a low voice," Then please take good care of him for me. Let him sleep on his side. He tends to vomit when he drinks too much. Put a glass of water next to him." "Sure, don't worry," Aldor responded with a smile.
After hanging up the phone, Aldor turned to the weak-looking man lying on the hospital bed. "If Mrs. Kane knew you risked yourself to get the evidence of Jaylene drugging you and that | helped you cover it up, she'd probably stop favoring me."
Keegan snorted before he said, "Why don't you focus on your work instead of always trying to please my wife? | can't have someone like you be my brother-in-law; | just can't stand it.”
Aldor laughed. "Well, before | can officially become your brother-in-law, I've got to have a backup plan, right?"
Keegan just had his stomach pumped, and his throat felt very painful. He did not have the energy to argue with Aldor. He stayed quiet for a long time before asking, "You managed to capture everything as | told you to, right?"
Keegan asked him to record the footage in the surveillance room because Stella got jealous easily. He wanted to have some evidence to prove his innocence.
Aldor believed him and went to the surveillance room to "create an opportunity" for Jaylene and help Keegan gather evidence.
