Bella would really be left with nothing if she was caught. The thought of that terrified her. Seeing that Keegan would not budge no matter what, Bella clenched her fists and said, “Stella still doesn’t know about that little girl’s existence, does she?”
Keegan looked up and clutched his phone tightly. “What did you just say?” He asked with a cold voice that caused Bella to shiver over the phone.
“I said she doesn’t know about Coco, right? Stella hates it when people lie to her, you know? How will she react when she finds out you have a daughter? Do you think she’d choose to be with you after that?”
Keegan did not say a word. Bella could not even hear him breathe. The silence was a little intimidating. However, Bella still dared to say, “I’ll expose the news about Coco if you don’t help me handle this matter. If I can’t get a happy ending, then no one can!”
“A happy ending?” Keegan gritted his teeth and said with a gloomy expression, “You don’t deserve a happy ending!’
Bella panicked for a moment, but she quickly calmed herself down. “Just help me, and I’ll-“
“83, Phoenix Road,” Keegan uttered an address without any warning, making Bella turn pale instantly.
“Do you actually think I have nothing up my sleeves, Bella?’ Keegan’s voice sounded news about Coco, and I’ll tear the place down to the ground,” he said.
Bella’s eyes widened in fear as she shuddered. “Don’t you dare! Don’t forget that we’re living in a law- governed society.”
Keegan tapped his fingers lightly on the balcony railing and said, “Try me.”
“Keegan, where did you put my charger?” Stella’s voice came from upstairs, and Keegan immediately hung up. He walked back into the room and asked, “Is it not on the nightstand?”
“No. I’ve checked,” Stella grumbled as she continued the search. “Can you please put my charger to its original place after you use it? I’ve had to look for it eight out of ten times I lend it to you. Can’t you just use your own charger?”
“But your wire is longer,” said Keegan.
His answer left Stella speechless.
Both Keegan and Stella’s phones came with a charger, but Stella got a 10- foot-long cable charger so that she could roll around in bed and use her phone while it was charging. When Stella first purchased the wire, she asked Keegan if he wanted one too, but he said using non-original chargers was dangerous. Despite that, he would still secretly use the charger when Stella was not around. Now, he would often use the charger openly and misplace it almost everytime.
“Where did you put it? My phone is going to die,” said Stella.
Keegan could not remember where he placed the item, so he joined her in the search for the charger. Stella went to the study and pulled open Keegan’s desk drawer one at a time. In the end, she found the charger hiding in the last drawer.
When Stella reached out to grab her belonging, she saw a pile of documents underneath her charger. A picture of a child that looked just like her was on the file. Normally, Stella would not look through Keegan’s stuff, but she and the kid looked so similar that she simply could not let it go. She then bent down and grabbed the file out of curiosity.
