Stella was also involved in this whole thing, so she could not exactly try to show her sympathy for Jaylene.
If she did not look at Keegan from an ex-wife's perspective, Keegan was indeed a very attractive man.
It was not surprising for girls to have a crush on him.
However, Jaylene showing affection for her ex-husband so soon after their divorce was not ideal, especially since Stella had saved her before.
Matters of the heart could not be controlled, but there was still a need for moral restraint.
Stella did not want to define someone through something like that, and she certainly did not want to stay and embarrass that person.
So, she took Keegan's hand and whispered, "Let's go somewhere else."
"Okay," Keegan replied and pulled her away.
Jaylene looked at the familiar Red Agate bracelet on Stella's wrist and clenched her fingers tight.She was both embarrassed and humiliated.Her face was ashen.She had dolled herself up for this date, but Keegan gave her over to Jackson.She dialed Keegan's number, and he did not pick up.She tried to come up with excuses for him, yet she did not realize that he was busy with another woman.
Jaylene would not have felt what she felt if Keegan had rejected her in the beginning.
‘It's clear that they see me as a joke" she thought.
She did not question the situation out of respect for herself.She knew that she would just make a fool of herself if she did.
Jackson read her expression and said slowly, "Keegan is a stubborn man.It's not easy for him to change his mind about a girl he likes.Someone as great and talented as you shouldn't be hung up on someone like him.You should pay more attention to the people around you."
Jaylene glanced at him and asked, "Do you like me, Jackson?"
Jackson was shocked.He did not expect her to ask him about it so bluntly.
Without any hesitation, he nodded and said, "Yes, I do."
"I would've believed you if you weren't reeking of somebody else's perfume," Jaylene smiled and said.
Jackson paused and chuckled, It was just for show."
"And, that is why I won't choose you,"
Jaylene turned around and said, as she walked away.
After meeting Jackson, Stella did not want to make a wish with the sky lanterns anymore.
Once she got into the car, she kept telling Keegan to take her home.
Hence, Keegan had to cancel their original plan and drive Stella home.
On their way back, it started to Tain, and Keegan began to speed up.
When they arrived at the underground parking lot of Clouditude International, Stella unfastened her seatbelt and said, "Thanks for the ride."
"I'll send you up," Keegan said after unbuckling his seatbelt.
"It's okay.Felicity's home."
"No, she's not back yet," said Keegan.
Stella was taken aback.
"How would you kn—"
She suddenly became suspicious halfway through her sentence.
"Did you ask Vermont to take her out?" Keegan's face was still.
"I just took a guess since his car isn't here."
Stella turned around and saw that Vermont's usual parking spot was empty.
"Come on.I'll send you up," Keegan said as he took her mask.
