Chapter 56
“Officer, was the person who made the report called Mr. Kane? Keegan Kane?”
The police officer looked at Stella in surprise. “Is he an acquaintance of yours?” he asked. Stella’s lips twitched, as she gritted her teeth and said, “He’s my husband!”
“Do you have any proof?”
“Huh? Proof? For what? To prove that he is my husband?
This was the first time Stella felt that she was having difficulties communicating with the police. So, she stopped talking and called Keegan immediately.
Once the line was connected, the man’s deep and mellow voice came from the other end. “What’s wrong?
Still acting like you don’t know, huh? What an ass! Stella held back her anger and said in a cold voice, Come and explain it to the police.”
Keegan seemed as though he had been waiting for her to say that. He hung up without a word. Stella was becoming more and more certain that Keegan did it on purpose. At first, she was anxious when she heard that Felicity was in trouble. But, now that Stella had time to calm down and think about it, she realized that the police resources were limited. It was impossible that they would casually bring Felicity in for questioning about a multi–million–dollar theft case.
As soon as Keegan entered the station, Stella pulled him over and said, “Officer, here’s the person who made the report–my husband.”
Keegan did not deny it. The police officer looked at Keegan and then at Stella. “If he’s your husband, then why don’t you two live together?”
Stella was at a loss for words at that time. Keegan raised his brows as if he was watching an exciting show. “Hey, they asked you a question,” he said.
