Chapter 1270

Stella immediately sealed her lips, and her gaze wandered in uncertainty. “Uh… the trash still needs to be taken out. I’ll go do that real quick.”

She attempted to slip away, but Keegan was not willing to let her go. Knowing that she knew his secret, he firmly grabbed her wrist and stopped her. His face tightened, as he probed, “When did you find out?

Who spilled the beans? Was it Aldor?”

Stella looked surprised. “Aldor knows about it too?” she asked.

Both of them fell quiet for a while.

‘Shoot. I should’ve just blamed it all on Aldor,’thought Stella.

Under Keegan’s intense gaze, she eventually mumbled, “You were the one who told me.”

Keegan found it hard to believe. “No. That’s impossible.”

“But, it’s true.” Stella glanced at him and softly added, “You told me when you were drunk.”

Keegan froze with disbelief painted across his face.

“You even willingly showed me the scar. Despite my resistance, you insisted that I look. I didn’t even have a choice,” Stella went on to deliver the final blow. As she spoke, she gestured with her fingers, illustrating the length of the scar. “It was this long.”

Keegan’s face tensed. His flirtatious mood instantly deflated. He knew he had a tendency to blackout when he was intoxicated. But, he had no idea he was capable of such audacious behavior while he was under the influence. The realization that he had deliberately exposed himself and invited Stella to inspect his scar left him deeply embarrassed. He let go of Stella’s wrist and walked away sullenly.

However, Stella was not about to let an opportunity to tease Keegan slip away. She chased after him and playfully said,” Were you nervous when you went in for surgery? Did they use a general anesthetic or a local one? Did you have to make any special preparations before a surgery like that?”

Suddenly, a realization dawned on her, and she exclaimed,” Did you avoid sharing a room with me a few months ago because you had the procedure? But, then again, a small scar like that wouldn’t take several months to hea-“

“Enough!” Keegan ground his teeth and interrupted her.

Stella bit her lip, and her eyes sparkled mischievously. She closed the distance between them and gently tugged at Keegan’s sleeve. “Why were you so concerned about me finding out about your vasectomy when you did it for me?” She asked in a soft and tender voice.

Keegan was still upset about his drunken stupidity, so his response lacked patience. “Don’t flatter yourself. I didn’t do it for you.”

“Alright, fine. You didn’t do it for me.” Stella was in a good mood and remained unfazed by Keegan’s temper. She lowered her voice and continued, “Then, when are you going to get a vasectomy reversal? Don’t you want to have kids with me?”

Keegan’s annoyance gradually faded due to her soothing tone. He hesitated for a moment before he pursed his lips and said, “I’ll do it when the doctor says you can conceive.”

“Okay,” Stella frowned, seeming a little confused.

Keegan glanced at her and asked, “What’s with the face?” “Nothing.” Stella then voiced her confusion in a soft tone.” Are you absolutely sure that your surgery was successful?”
