Chapter 227
Stella thought that Keegan was deliberately clinging to her. But, she realized that she had misunderstood
him as soon as he said, “Me too.”
Stella said resignedly, “You first.”
Keegan got up from the bed. But, as soon as he stood up, his feet went wobbly, and he was about to fall
to the ground.
Luckily, Stella reacted quickly. She grabbed his collar and pulled him back, so he fell on the bed instead.
The fever reducer that Stella had given Keegan had a particularly strong effect. She herself had taken it
once and quickly felt drowsy and weak.
She thought to herself, ‘Judging from his state, I guess the medicine has already kicked in.’ So, she said,
“I’ll get Aldor to help.” As she spoke, she tried to get up, but Keegan held her down. “No, don’t go!”

Stella then explained, “But, I can’t move you alone.”
He gave a determined stare and refused to let Aldor come. At that moment, his face was red.
Stella was a little late when she realized, ‘Keegan cares a lot about his image. Maybe he’s afraid. that
Aldor would see him in his embarrassing state, which will affect his CEO image.’
Keegan moved his lips and said softly, “Just help me walk.”
Keegan remained resolute, so Stella had no choice but to help him to the bathroom.
Once they finally made it there, Keegan kicked her out. Initially, Stella thought that it would be awkward
to assist Keegan in using the toilet, so this worked out well for her. She waited outside for a long time,
but Keegan did not come out. Just as she was about to knock on the door to check on him, she heard a
big crash from inside as if something had fallen over.
Without thinking, Stella pushed open the bathroom door.
Keegan was lying in a mess on the ground. The shelf next to him was also knocked over, and the items
were scattered everywhere.
His pants were not even fully pulled up yet. There was some unknown liquid on his hands and pants.
When Keegan saw that Stella was coming in, he panicked and tried to pull up face was terribly pale, and

Stella hesitated for a moment when she saw the scene in front of her. She walked in and squatted down
to help him pull up his pants. Then, she silently helped him up.
Keegan was furious and pushed Stella away, telling her to leave.
Stella ignored him. Instead, she helped him up. She did not mind his dirty hands, and she washed them
under the faucet. Then, she took a towel and helped him wipe the stains off his pants.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmRegardless of how bad his attitude was, Stella remained silent.
After she was done cleaning up, Stella helped him out and changed his clothes.
Keegan gradually stopped talking and watched her. Somehow, he felt a tightness in his throat.
When Stella had finished sweeping up all the broken glass, she brought the first-aid kit over and
changed the bandage on his arm.
Stella unwrapped the gauze and found that Keegan’s wound was bleeding again. The wound looked as
though it had been stitched up again.
She thought to herself, ‘Didn’t he go to Bella? Does Bella know how to stitch up a wound?’
Stella did not have time to think about it, and she used a cotton swab to disinfect the wound.
Although Keegan was sleepy, he still looked at Stella without blinking. She was not wearing makeup, so
the mole on her nose was partially visible, which looked similar to when they first met. But, it was also a
bit different. He recalled that when she was handling those stains in the bathroom, her face never
showed a hint of disgust throughout the entire process.
