Chapter 745
Stella had no tears left to cry after Rainee passed away.She thought that she would never cry again in her life if not required by work However, Keegan repeatedly apologizing made broke her down.
What happened that night had never stopped bothering her.
She was afraid she would find somebody else sleeping beside her after switching off the lights at night.
So she would always leave a light on in her bedroom every night.She was scared that Keegan would touch her and get rough in the sheets with her as even a tiny movement could remind her of the night that turned her stomach upside down.She just could not forgive Keegan for leaving her alone on their wedding night, and it was impossible for her to let it go.
Keegan stoked Stella's back as he felt like his heart was being stabbed many times.
Material things that he gave Stella were something worth the least to her.She wanted affection, trust, and protection.
Yet he failed to give her any.
Keegan finally knew why she gave him a negative score.
He could not expect her to forgive him easily after he and his family hurt her.He wanted to ask why Stella did not tell Cordelia about it since she was always reasonable.
Then, he figured out the answer himself.
Stella came to the Kane family all alone.
To her, everybody else was a part of the family, and she was the only outsider who did not share the same last name as them.
So, there was no way she could be sure that Cordelia would be on her side.She was so isolated and helpless in the Kane family, full of threats.
The Jewell Group was in crisis, and Albert wanted to stop paying for Rainee's medical bills in the year when they got married.
So, she did not dare to make a scene out of what happened.
Also, Stella would have no idea what to do if Keegan chose his family's reputation over her and dumped her.
Keegan repeatedly thought about the past and felt a dull ache in his chest.
He let go of Stella and bowed his forehead to touch Stella's forehead.
Then, he wiped away the tears in the corner of her eyes before saying in a hoarse voice with his red eyes, "I'm not going to let this slide.I swear."
