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!” Keegan yelled.
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 he snapped, “Who let
you in? Get out!”

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.
Regardless 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.
