him.
Keegan checked the time. “She’s still not back?”
“No, her indoor slippers are still outside, and it’s already late. Should I give her a call?” Maya suggested.
Keegan pursed his lips before he said, “No.”
“Why don’t you go upstairs and get some rest? The living room can be really cold at night. You might
catch a cold,” Maya suggested.
However, Keegan refused. “No, I’ll be fine. You go ahead and get some rest.”
After failing to persuade Keegan to go upstairs, Maya went to fetch a glass of water for him. ” Mrs.
Kane’s temper is pretty bad right now. She took birth control pills without telling your mother, and she’s
still angry with others. It’s pretty late, and she’s still not home. It’s not good for you to stay up when your
wound hasn’t healed. Your mother will be very upset if she finds out.”
Keegan frowned. “How did you know she took birth control pills?”
