Chapter 2203
Stella whispered, "I was worried you're still upset with me."
Handing Trevor the breakfast, she asked, "Where’s Dad?"
"Dad went to rest.He left around four.He should be here soon."
"You've been here all night?"
Trevor opened the bag, taking a bite, "Gotta keep up appearances."
With over twenty years of being family, being too nonchalant could easily raise Darcie's suspicions.
Stella glanced at the dark circles under his eyes, feeling a pang of sympathy, "There's a restaurant downstairs, grab a seat there and eat.I'll get you a bowl of soup."
Trevor waved it off.
"I drank enough water last night."
Stella was speechless.
That sarcastic streak seemed to be a family trait.
Seeing it in Trevor made Stella realize how stubborn she used to be.
She couldn't help but laugh, “Trevor, did you scare off all your ex-girlfriends with that sarcasm?"
Trevor nodded.
"Yep, those with thick skins like Keegan are rare."
Stella was rendered speechless once more.
In the end, Trevor did join Stella at the restaurant.
According to him, Jaylene was badly injured this time, scratches all over her neck and arms, and a bruise on her forehead.
Getting her to the hospital took some time, and now that she had just regained consciousness, she was very weak.
The police have taken statements, but Jaylene didn't accuse Dahlia of fraud; she focused on accusing Kanrara and Blake.
She was not going to let them off.
Stella quickly deduced Jaylene's reasoning; she didn't dare accuse Dahlia for fear she might succeed, which wouldn't bode well with Keegan.
When Stella avoided Dahlia and indirectly led her to the company, she had thoughts of using her as a scapegoat.
