Chapter 1968
Stella quickly moved her hand away and said with a frown," Why are you inside my blanket?"
Keegan sat up and was taken aback upon hearing what Stella said. "Take a good look at whose
blanket this is."
Stella looked at the blanket and fell silent.
Then, she quietly rolled out of Keegan's blanket, grabbed her own, and covered herself again.
"I don't usually sleep like this." Stella tried to explain herself. "It's probably because of the pregnancy.
The little one inside is acting up."
Keegan got out of bed and took off his pajamas. Then, he grabbed his shirt and said while buttoning
up, "It's okay.
Didn't you say that we should work on our physical connection? I understand."
He raised his gaze, as he spoke. "You can just ask to sleep under the same blanket next time. No need

His response left Stella utterly speechless.
'He needs to stop accusing me!' Stella said inwardly.
The past few days had been strange for Stella. Even though she had been sleeping in her own blanket
every night, she would wake up in Keegan's every morning. However, it was still fine for Stella, as
Keegan would always wake up before her, making the situation less awkward.
But, after waking up face-to-face with Keegan this morning, Stella figured that Keegan must have
thought that she was trying to get closer to him in the middle of the night.
However, that was not the case at all.
Ever since she got pregnant, her sleep had improved significantly. Sometimes, she would feel like
teasing Keegan in bed, but she would fall asleep before he even returned.
'Have I really been snuggling into him for the past few days?' Stella wondered to herself.
Keegan saw how confused Stella looked, and his mood lit up.
"Come on, go get ready. We're going to the hospital."
Stella rubbed her hair and responded in a daze, "Okay."
When she went downstairs, there was a fresh bouquet of flowers on the table with dewdrops glistening
on the petals.
As she approached it, she noticed a blue jewelry box next to the flowers.
Stella paused and turned to Keegan.
Keegan was tying his tie, and when he noticed her gaze, he explained, "Aldor prepared this for
Valentine's Day."
"Oh."
Stella did not touch the box. Then, she turned around and put on her jacket.
Keegan was taken aback. "Are you not going to open it?"

"Didn't you say that Aldor prepared it for Aurora? Why would I open somebody else's gift?"
Keegan was speechless.
His expression turned somewhat indescribable before he said in a low voice, "Aldor prepared it for me
to give it to you. I didn't give it to you last night because you fell asleep."
"Oh..." Stella dragged her voice. After that, she said, "So, you bought me a Valentine's Day gift?"
Keegan paused for a moment before he said, "Aldor did."
Stella replied, "I'm glad that you told him to buy it. He knows exactly what I like."
As she spoke, she opened the box and saw a platinum bracelet with intricate craftsmanship.
Suddenly, a bright smile appeared on her face. "I told you so. Aldor knows me all too well."
Keegan was speechless.
'I was the one who chose this!' he exclaimed inwardly.
Keegan watched, as Stella lovingly held the platinum bracelet. He felt happy and frustrated at the same
time.
