Chapter 746
"Not really. The doctor said he’s going to need a few days of rest. Other than that, he's all right." Stella
paused. "Is everything fine... at your home?"
Stella heard a loud noise from the phone as if something had fallen on the ground and shattered before
Marshall could say anything; it shocked her. Then, she heard a crackling sound in the phone before
Marshall hurriedly said he would call her back and hung up.
Stella frowned and mumbled, "Why does Mr. Moore sound like he's fighting someone..."
Keegan said, "He's so fragile. Who could he be fighting?"
Stella thought what Keegan said made sense, but then she heard him add, "He's probably just getting
beat up."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtStella was speechless.
'Marshall started this. He can't blame me for doing the same back at him.'
Keegan thought to himself and suddenly felt like he hated the old-fashioned and stubborn old man in
the Moore family a lot lesser because nobody in the Moore family could handle him whenever he
caused a scene.
Stella glared at Keegan. "How could you be so mean? I don't know why anyone would want to befriend
you."
Unexpectedly, Keegan did not talk back. He grabbed her wrist instead. "I'll drive you home now."
Stella pulled her hand back. "Minus one hundred points."
Keegan was speechless.
"What for?"
"For lying to me and grabbing me without my permission."
Keegan kept quiet.
"Do I really need permission to grab your hand?"
Stella glowered at him. "Of course! You didn't even ask me before you tried to get me back. It's rude for
you to grab my hand like that."
Keegan kept quiet again.
He held her hand. "I'm just going to keep holding your hand since you've already deducted my points."
Then, he looked at her, "Not accumulative, right?"
Stella was speechless.
A gust of cold wind blew at them as soon as they left the hospital. So, Keegan took off his jacket and
draped it over her shoulders. Stella's eyelid twitched. "Keegan, what month is it now?"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmKeegan did not know why she asked that. "August."
"What's the temperature now?"
"About 95 degrees, I guess."
Stella removed the jacket and threw it back at him. "That's right! It's 95 degrees, and you draped your
jacket over me?" Keegan was speechless.
Then, he pursed his lips and said softly, "I just wanted to get some extra points. I heard them say it
feels warm when their boyfriends do this."
"You've got to at least do it at the right time!" Stella's heart melted as she pretended to be mad. "I'm
already sweating so much. Are you trying to give me a heat rash by doing that? n
She paused after saying that and squinted. "Them? Them who?"
Keegan pursed his lips. "No one."
Stella got curious. There was just no way that she would let him off this easily. So, she glared at him
and said, "Do you want me back?"
"Yeah." Then, he added, "But this is my privacy."
