Chapter 640
"If only I hadn't left after you gave me the candy and sent me away.I definitely would've caught you immediately.I was standing too far away."
‘That's how Marshall beat me to the punch” thought Keegan.
Stella was speechless.
Then, she was annoyed.
"You've been thinking for two days, and this is the conclusion you came to?"
"No..."
Keegan set down the bottle in his hand.He continued, "I shouldn't have let Jaylene touch me, and I should've pushed her away.In fact, it doesn't even matter if I was a little late, but I had to be facing you."
Stella was speechless again.
Aldor quietly increased the volume of his earphones.
"Don't try to play the sympathy card."
Stella turned away and did not look at him.
Keegan lowered his gaze.
"I want to play the sympathy card on you, but you said we don't even have feelings of affection between us."
Stella was at a loss for words.
‘We have no feelings for each other, and it'll be nothing but torture to the both of us if we force ourselves to be together"
She suddenly thought of the words she had said to the officer on the day they got divorced.
"To be honest, I felt really sad on the day we got married.I did not expect you to actually get a divorce.You signed the papers so resolutely as if you didn't care about me at all."
He continued, "It's certainly not entirely your fault.I'm more at fault.I should...I should have been by your side when you needed me the most and not let you feel disappointed in our marriage."
Stella clenched her fists as her heart trembled slightly.
‘Keegan Kane, there's no fucking use regretting things now!' she thought.She pursed her lips and said out of spite, "What's the point of saying all this now? I don't care anymore."
"Stella."
Keegan lifted his gaze.His eyes were a bit clouded.He shook his head and said in a low voice, "I swear, something like this won't happen for a third time.Don't look at Marshall, and don't look at Trevor either.Look at me, Stella..."
Before Keegan could finish his sentence, Stella heard a loud bang.Keegan had fallen onto the bed.
Stella was startled.She quickly jumped to her feet.
