Chapter 904

“Okay,” Stella said. Her legs became weak as soon as she stood up and stumbled.

Keegan was shocked and immediately went forward to help her up. Then, he asked softly, “Are you okay?”

Stella got embarrassed and only said after a while, “Do I walk like I’m riding on a pig?”

Keegan kept quiet. He reminded himself of how ruthless he was last night and got a little awkward too. Then, he said, “Cover your face so no one will recognize you.”

Stella was speechless. She knew what his answer was.

It was a yes.

The bathroom had no cold water, and Keegan booked a room next door. The car that Aldor scheduled for them arrived after they freshened up.

Stella only started thinking about what to do with this relationship when the car started moving. She was not expecting their relationship to progress so quickly, so she was a little lost. She initially planned to only focus on her relationship after her career got on track.

Keegan was already at the peak of his career, so she wanted to achieve something at least, even though she might not be able to be as successful as Keegan.

Trust was not the only reason why their marriage failed. The difference in socioeconomic status between them was also a factor. The huge gap between them always made Stella feel insecure, and she could never stop asking herself if she was good enough to be Keegan’s partner.

However, things did not go as planned. Stella would never expect to be in the same bed as him, let alone have intercourse. She thought to herself.1 Should I tell him I only slept with him because I was drugged and tell him to forget what happened?’

However, she felt like giving herself a big slap as she thought about how horrible she would be if she said that. She started regretting. ‘Why didn’t I keep myself under control last night? I would’ve let Keegan send me to the hospital if I had known earlier.

I’d rather feel embarrassed than put myself in this position now.’

“Last night… was an accident…” Stella was still thinking about what to say, yet Keegan interrupted her.

“Don’t be too bothered by it. Just consider me as your antidote.

Everything’s fine.” Keegan gazed at her with a gentle look on his face. “I know you only did that because you were drugged last night. I’m sure you’d do the same if I were somebody else, so it had no special meaning.

However, I’m glad that that person could be me. I won’t ask you for anything because of what happened last night. I’ll respect your decision no matter what it is.”

Stella kept quiet.

‘What now? I feel even more like a horrible person now. I was the one who started everything, yet he’s defending me for it.’

Stella scratched her hair and said, while blushing, “You’re wrong. I’d never do something like that with anybody else.”

Keegan paused as a pleasantly surprised look flashed across his face.
