Chapter 1915
Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted
Keegan was taken aback.
That was something he had never thought of before.
He had seen what Cocoâs mother looked like when she was pregnant with Coco. It was difficult. Other than the mother and the babyâs safety, Keegan did not wish for anything more.
In the twenty past years before marriage, he had not really thought about raising a child.
Dahlia was not a responsible person, and Quentin passed away too soon. He had never experienced what it was like growing up in a normal family. He was quick to learn everything else, but when it came to being a parent, he had no one to refer to.
So, raising a child was never a thing he had considered before.
Even when he took Stella to see a doctor back then, he only did that to make her happy because he knew that she liked children.
This baby came too suddenly and caught him off guard.
Whenever he thought about how there was a life flowing with their blood in Stellaâs belly, he would have an indescribable feeling.
Happy, excited, confused, afraid, and at the same time, grateful.
The baby was more than just a biological link between them. It was also a symbol of love and commitment.
Whether he liked a boy or a girl, he still did not have an answer.
Stella was the only person he liked the most, and he looked forward to going through the process of raising their baby together.
Stella had taught him the value of life and the sense of responsibility as parents.
Keegan would have a strange but pleasant feeling in his heart just by thinking about that.
âWhy does it take you so long to think about it?â
Stella glanced at him speechlessly. âIs he frozen or what?â Keegan lowered his gaze and said, âI like both.â
Stella chuckled softly and muttered, âHow greedy of you. Anyway, regardless of what you like, I will only go through this pain once. Iâm not going to have any more babies after this.â
Stella seemed to hear Keegan chuckle, but when she turned to look, there was no trace of any smile on his face.
When they were sleeping at night, Stella felt an itch on her face when she was half awake. Then, a large hand slipped under the blanket, lifted her nightgown, and gently touched her belly.
The hand was very warm, and she could not help but snuggle closer to it.
Keegan paused, pulled her close, and murmured, âIt doesnât matter if the baby is a boy or a girl. I just hope that the baby wonât like to roll in the mud.â
Stella was speechless.
Six days after New Yearâs, Keegan started working again.
The new manager of The Velvet had sent over a box of jewelry.
Stella was in the bathroom, and Aurora took the package.
After that, she put it on the coffee table. Stella went downstairs, opened it, and called Olivia.
âOlivia, where are you?
âThe set of bridal jewelry you ordered for your daughter is here. Iâll bring it over.â
Aurora paused, and she immediately perked up her ear.
âItâs okay. I happen to have some business there anyway. Iâll come over.
âAre you sure you want me to bring it over on the wedding day? Donât you want her to try them on first?
I wonât be able to refund them if you donât like them by then.
âOkay, then. Iâll see you tomorrow night.â
After hanging up, Stella turned around and saw Aurora standing behind her.
Stella was startled. She frowned and said, âWhy are you just standing behind me without saying a word?â
Aurora furrowed her brows. âAre you going to the wedding of Mrs. Chapmanâs daughter tomorrow?â
âYeah, is there a problem?â
