Chapter 2357
Keegan quickly turned his head, gesturing for Stella to kiss him elsewhere.
Stella hugged Keegan and kissed him a few more times. With a mischievous glint in her eye, she said, "When you mentioned giving her the model, I thought you were serious. But you ended up gifting her something else. Aren't you worried she'll check the price?"
Keegan responded coolly, "Let her check. I didn't lie. It is indeed out of print. She tried to pour boiling water on you to test me. If one plan fails, she'll try another. I won't leave until I find a reason to argue with you." The first time, Jaylene had her back to the stairs and couldn't see his expression, so she missed his pale face. Because of the bug on her body, he quickly found an excuse to divert her suspicion. If it happens again, how could he be so lucky?
Thinking about Jaylene's actions, Stella's smile faded. "Since Darcie is suspicious, she won't easily believe the news Jaylene brings back. This drama won't last long. Let's see her next move. If I provoke her, I'll start with Jaylene and let her taste the pain."
After a pause, she added, "You really need to see the doctor who hypnotized you with Jaylene again."
Keegan smiled, "She has to be able to bring him to me."Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.
Stella's eyes sparkled, "What did you do to him?"
Keegan said slowly, "Nothing. I just reported that someone on a certain flight had smuggled banned drugs. Jaylene will probably receive the news tonight. This person knows what drugs can't pass customs, so how could he bring them in? The drugs he gave Jaylene were clearly banned. How could he smuggle them?"
Keegan continued, "If he doesn't bring them, someone will help him."

Dr. Stone isn't a citizen of this country. Even if he violates the rules, he'll be repatriated to face legal sanctions. If he can't enter the country, Jaylene will find another way to get the medicine. Then it will be time to close the net.
Stella realized, "So it's about money and influence."
Keegan paused and suddenly asked, "Did you curse during the argument?"
Stella blinked, "No."
"Yes!" Keegan glared at her, "Did you forget what the prenatal teacher said?"
What did the prenatal teacher say?
Listening to music, telling stories, and anything else? Stella couldn't remember.
She slept through half of the prenatal class yesterday.
Keegan hired a professional prenatal teacher for home classes. The teacher spoke softly and gently, clearly experienced with pregnant women and children. It was uncomfortable and made Stella sleepy.
She was sometimes confused and sometimes dazed during the class. She had never been so sleepy, even in her worst math class in school.
Keegan was energetic, taking notes while listening.
Stella asked Keegan, yawning, "You have a good memory, but you still take notes."
What did Keegan say?
He said, "A good memory is not as reliable as a bad pen."
This was Stella's only impression of the class. As for what the teacher said, it went in one ear and out the other.
Keegan knew from Stella's expression that she hadn't absorbed much from the class.
"Don't curse," Keegan said unhappily, "especially not in front of the children. Look at Coco. She's only been with us a short time and already knows how to ask for red envelopes. This stage is crucial for forming a child's worldview, values, and outlook on life. As parents, we must set a good example."
Stella disagreed, "Does Coco care
about the red envelope? She's
venting her anger for us. Children know who genuinely cares for them. N
Forming a worldview, values, and
outlook on life is important, but we
can't teach children to be saints. We need different standards for good and bad people. Coco is much smarter than I was as a child."
Keegan disagreed. "What's good
about it? She's tasted the sweetness
of getting something for nothing! e How can you guarantee she'll target bad guys next time? When driven by interests, will she care if the person she deceives is good or bad?"
Stella wanted to refute but felt Keegan made sense.
"Then what should we do? We can't punish her."
If it was her own child, she would have punished them. But Coco wasn't hers, and the child knew she wasn't part of the family. Light scolding might not be effective; harsh wo
Keegan was also in a dilemma. They leaned on the balcony railing, thinking hard.
Keegan suggested, "How about one of us plays the good cop and the other the bad cop, combining rewards and punishments?"
Stella agreed, "Okay, you be the good cop, and I'll be the bad cop."
Keegan protested, "I scolded Jaylene just now, and now you want me to be the good cop? What if she hates me?"
