Darcie was surprised. ’What did you say?" she asked.

Jaylene shut her mouth.

Darcie had given up on the idea of her being with Keegan. She would give Jaylene an earful if she

discovered she was secretly in touch with him.

"Nothing, Mom. Why are you still up so late?"

"I can't seem to fall asleep. I've got a headache." Darcie sat beside her and continued, "Why haven't

you been hanging out with Trevor lately? You used to follow him around all the time."

A touch of indifference appeared on Jaylene's face as she heard Trevor's name.

"He's too busy being all nice to his biological sister. He has no time for me, " she answered.

"What are you talking about? Trevor loved you most when you were younger. He hardly talked to me,

but he always loved playing with you," said Darcie.

"Since Stella and Trevor were separated since childhood, it's understandable that they have a close

bond now that she's back. However, you and Trevor grew up together. He must be disappointed you're

not taking the initiative to talk to him."

Jaylene bit her lips before saying, "He doesn't treat me like he used to. All the kindness he showed me

vanished after Stella's return. I was just a replacement for his lost sister. Now that she's back, I no

longer have any standing."

Darcie explained, "That's because you always have a hostile attitude

toward Stella. You compete with her for attention in front of her father and brother. How can you

possibly win that way? Only by treating her well can your father treat you well and slowly understand

your grievances. Do you get it?"

Jaylene was taken aback and seemed to understand what Darcie was talking about.

"Talk to your brother and keep an eye on the people he interacts with."

"Why should I do that?" Jaylene replied.

Darcie said in disdain, "Your brother isn't young anymore. If something happens, your father and I can

also be mentally prepared to learn more about the other party."

"Alright, Mom."

"I'll be turning in now. You should go to bed too, hon." Darcie patted Jaylene on the shoulder and stood

up to go upstairs.

Darcie had been feeling uneasy recently, ever since Trevor safely returned from Mystonia. She couldn't

fall asleep at night, and even when she did, she had nightmares and felt tense.

Although the investigation results of the plane crash showed it was an accident as planned, Darcie

couldn't feel at ease for some reason.

Trevor had already found out about Venice. Even if he believed that the plane crash was an accident,

his doubts would not be dispelled.

Darcie wasn't afraid of Trevor finding out anything, but she dreaded the possibility of him stubbornly

clinging to the issue.

On the fifth day of Dahlia's detention, the police issued a notice stating that she was sentenced to

twenty days of detention.

When the news came, Stella was quite surprised. She thought Dahlia would

be detained for ten days at most. Although someone was hurt due to the oil, they were not heavily

injured.

Stella assumed the sentence would be seven days of detention and a fine of 500 dollars. She didn't

expect that Dahlia would be given 20 days.

Keegan probably didn't let Ted intervene,' she thought.

Twenty days of detention didn't seem like a lot, but it would be unbearable for Dahlia, who was used to

the pampered life. The people she was locked up with were all marginalized people from society. None

of them would treat her as kindly as the people outside. 1

Dahlia still had Olivia’s case waiting for her when she came out. It seemed like she wouldn't have the

time and energy for a court battle anytime soon.

Keegan's memory recovery was kept quiet. Right now, the priority was dealing with the Jaylene

situation.

The person who kidnapped Jaylene was still unknown, making Stella and Keegan uneasy. Keegan

pretending to have amnesia also let him investigate without drawing attention.

Stella knew who Keegan wanted to check but didn't bring it up since he hadn't mentioned it.

It was the day before a public holiday. Aurora was in the office, griping to Aldor.

"Keegan should've stayed home. Whenever he's around, we all end up working late. It's a public

holiday. If he doesn't want a day off, at least let the rest of US take a break!"
