Chapter 2348 Stella had just descended the stairs when she heard that remark, causing her eyelids to twitch as she thought to herself, "Damn it! He really knows how to cup with excuses!" Upon hearing this, Jaylene's eyes briefly flashed with disdain, but she ultimately accepted the shoe covers Keegan handed her. As Keegan led Jaylene into the house, her eyes continued to scrutinize every corner.
There were a couple of pillows on the sofa, couple mugs on the table, wedding photos of Keegan and Stella on the walls, and even headbands and hair ties scattered on the table. The house exuded an unmistakable feminine touch.

Jaylene spoke softly, "Keegan, I heard from Stella that you brew Dragon Well tea better than anyone else. Is there a special technique?" Stella paused, certain she had never mentioned that to Jaylene. Was Jaylene testing Keegan to see if he had regained his memory? She worried Keegan might accidentally reveal something.
Keegan remained composed, responding calmly, "She's mistaken. I don't brew tea, and I'm not particularly fond of Dragon Well." Jaylene pressed further, "Then what kind of tea do you like, Keegan?" After a moment's thought, Keegan replied, "Probably the Imperial Eighteen Trees." Jaylene fixed her gaze on his eyes, observing his every expression. "Why is that?" Keegan shook his head. "I'm not sure. I just have a feeling it would make excellent tea eggs." Then, as if remembering something, he murmured, "I'll have Maria give it a try sometime." Jaylene's heart tightened. Keegan's demeanor didn't suggest he remembered Stella, but his answers hinted that his body hadn't entirely forgotten her.
A few days ago, when Stella and Trevor had dinner together, they were mistaken for Stella and Leighton. Media attention was focused on Leighton's cheating scandal, completely overlooking Keegan in the background of the photos.
It was Stella's mother who first noticed and quickly found Jaylene, suspecting Keegan might have regained histheyre memory. How else could they explain him dining with Stella and Trevon? When Keegan had amnesia, he had resisted Stella's presence so vehemently. How could he now willingly share a meal with her?
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJaylene didn't want to believe the hypnosis had failed. She had administered so many drugs, and the hypnotist had experimented on tist had on numerous people without any waking up fully in such a short time. Keegan had been severely injured, at his most mentally vulnerable, which should have made the hypnosis more effective. But that photo made it hard for her not to overthink things. Jaylene had been happy when Keegan answered the door, but Darcie's words quickly soured her mood.
She remarked, "Stella is very ambitious. If she's taking toff work, she must be unwell. Trust me, if you go to the Rahe family home, Keegan will definitely be there. If he's regained his memory and Stella isn't feeling well, he wouldn't be comfortable going to work." Seeing Keegan at hnow seemed to confirm her mother's suspicions, leaving Jaylene unable to muster a smile. Upstairs, behind a pillar, Stella observed Jaylene's expressions closely.
It was evident Jaylene had cto test them.
