And that medicine...' Keegan thought of the sound of wind chimes he heard every time he was in a daze. Lowering his gaze, he absentmindedly tapped the tabletop with his fingers. Aldor was very intrigued by Keegan's insights, so he asked," How do you know?"

"I..." Keegan paused and said lightly, "Asked about it before."

'Asked about it? Mr. Kane isn't mentally ill, so for whom did he consult?* Aldor thought to himself.

Keegan stood up, took the documents to the shredder, and tossed them in. The documents were instantly shredded into bits.

He threw those bits into the ashtray, took out a lighter, ignited the bits, and watched the flames flicker. "Don't tell anyone about this matter," he said flatly.

Aldor asked in a low voice, "Including Mrs. Kane?"

Keegan nodded.

Aldor was about to say "Okay" but suddenly froze. He just called Stella Mrs.

Kane," but Keegan said nothing!

Aldor cautiously asked, "Mr. Kane, have you remembered everything?"

Keegan's gaze remained lowered as he asked, "Is the revised proposal ready?"

Aldor was speechless. He then whispered to himself, "Didn't you say to check things first, and the proposal wasn't urgent? n Keegan looked up, "Sorry?"

Aldor immediately held his tongue. "I'll work on it right away."

As he was about to leave the office, Keegan's phone rang. Aldor glanced at it and saw that the call was from Jaylene. He halted his steps and slowly tidied up things on the desk.

Keegan ignored him and answered the call anyway.

"Keegan, it's me."

Keegan responded flatly, "Jaylene, is there something you need?"

He sounded very gentle. But to Aldor, he was simply indifferent.

"Keegan, I have a friend who is getting engaged and wants me to attend the engagement banquet. Can you go with me? IV Keegan chuckled, "It's inappropriate for me to attend your friend's engagement banquet."

"Well, I didn't want to trouble you... But when you were hospitalized, this friend of mine helped us a lot. Remember the medicine you were on? She brought it back from overseas. Besides attending her engagement banquet, I'm also going there to get the medicine."

She continued, "Keegan, if you don't want to go, just forget about it. I'll bring the medicine back for you when I return."

Keegan fell silent for a moment before saying, "Send me the address."

Jaylene sounded delighted, "Sure."

After hanging up, Keegan looked up and frowned when he saw Aldor still in the office, "Is there anything else I can help you with?"

Aldor pursed his lips and decided to remind him, "Mr. Kane, do you remember the year you attended a client's birthday banquet? You danced with the client's daughter.

"It was around this season, so it was freezing cold. Mrs. Kane locked all the doors and windows when you went home and left you to freeze outside for the entire night. Do you remember?" Keegan stared coldly at him, "What are you trying to say?"

Aldor spoke softly, "Your body isn't as resilient as it was back then. Don't be so defiant.”
