Chapter 128

Dahlia did not answer Stella’s question. Instead, she asked, “You didn’t know about what happened to Aurora?”

Stella was taken aback. “I visited my mother after the banquet last night and had no knowledge of what happened afterward, apart from Mr. Snyder sending Aurora home.”

Dahlia was troubled. “I’m not entirely sure what happened either. Aurora came back crying this morning and said that Keegan had locked her in a restroom overnight, but she didn’t tell me about it clearly. I thought you might know something since you were at the banquet last night.”

Stella was shocked. “Keegan actually locked Aurora in the bathroom all night! Is he insane?! But, it couldn’t have been for my sake. I’m not that self–absorbed.”

When she remembered Trevor thanking her at Cordelia’s house, Stella realized that Trevor must have known about the incident since he did not seem concerned about how Jaylene was trapped in the restroom.

Trevor had remained silent on who was responsible for the incident, likely because Keegan had taken it upon himself to punish Aurora.

This could be seen as a form of explanation for the Saun family. It had sought retribution for Jaylene and, indirectly, Stella.
