    Chapter 1735


    Startled, Coco quickly jumped off her chair and dashed to the door. She stuck her head out to see what


    was going on.


    There was no one in the hallway other than the cleaningdy polishing the handrail on the stairs.


    Spotting some scattered dirt near the entrance where a flowerpot was, Coco held the phone and called


    for Ste. After receiving no response, she lowered her head and realized the call had been


    unexpectedly disconnected.


    Coco was thinking of redialing the number when she heard Keegan’s voice asking, “Did I leave my


    phone in your room?”


    In response, Coco swiftly withdrew her finger, contemting a condition before returning the phone to


    him. “Give me Aunt Ste’s number, and I’ll return your phone.”


    Keegan shot her a nce. “I’ll give it to you, but she won’t answer your call.”


    “Aunt Ste isn’t as petty as you,” Coco mumbled. “I don’t care if she doesn’t answer. Just give me the


    number.”


    Keegan observed her briefly before stating, “If you don’t give me the phone, how can I tell you the


    number?”


    Coco wanted to say she could find it herself, but fearing Keegan would discover she had called Ste


    with his phone, she reluctantly returned the device to him.


    Unexpectedly, Keegan turned around and left after grabbing the phone. Coco hurriedly ran after him


    and said, “You haven’t given me Aunt Ste’s number!”


    With his height advantage, Keegan dangled the phone above Coco. “Lesson one in society: Never trust


    anyone, even those closest to you.” 2


    Coco’s face turned red. She grabbed Keegan’s other hand and bit it.


    In response, Keegan lifted her effortlessly.

    “Let go,” Keegan warned.


    Instead ofplying with his wishes, Coco bit down even harder.


    Keegan sighed and uttered a series of numbers.


    Coco paused and nkly stared at him.


    “Didn’t you say you want her number?” Keegan said in disdain.


    Coco quickly released her bite and asked him to repeat it.


    “I’ll say it one more time, and that’s it. If you don’t remember, then too bad.”


    “Hurry up and tell me!” Coco urged.


    Keegan repeated the number, and Coco swiftly put it onto her phone.


    After saving it, she looked at him and said, “Uncle Keegan.”


    Keegan nced at her. “What’s wrong?”


    Coco leaned in. “I thought you don’t remember Aunt Ste. Howe you remember her phone


    number?”


    With both hands covering her mouth, she whispered, “Are you pretending to have amnesia to deceive


    her? Did you get jealous seeing her with that handsome uncle?”


    Keegan paused. “Handsome uncle? Is there someone more handsome than me?” 1


    Coco was speechless. “So, was what I said true or not?”
