With teary eyes, Dahlia clasped Jaylene’s hand. “Jaylene, you’re such a gem. I truly appreciate your help, thank you so much. I promise, once the funds from the orders come through, I’ll repay you the twenty million.”
Jaylene waved it off, feeling a tad embarrassed. “Aunt Dahlia, please don’t mention it. I genuinely regard you and Keegan as family. How could I sit idle when you’re in trouble? I’ll contact the bank right away to transfer the money, and you can proceed to save Uncle.”
Dahlia poured out her gratitude, lavishing Jaylene with compliments.
However, Jaylene didn’t have that much liquid capital at hand. Normally, she would have turned to Trevor for a loan, but this situation involved Dahlia. Trevor still harbored resentment toward her for her treatment of Stella back in the Kane household. If he knew this money was for Dahlia, he definitely wouldn’t lend it.
Asking Darcie was out of the question. Darcie wished for nothing more than to sever all ties between her and Keegan.
After careful thought, Jaylene decided to mortgage her villa under her name.
Once she secured the money, she promptly transferred it to Dahlia.
Upon hearing the news, Stella was taken aback.
She nudged Keegan, who was reading nearby. “Are you touched? Twenty million just like that, without a second thought. Jaylene’s affection for you runs deep.”
Keegan pulled her foot onto his lap, flipping through his book. “Didn’t you also take two hundred and fifty million? Your affection runs even deeper.”
