Chapter 905

Keegan paused. He was not sure if he heard what Stella said correctly.

He held his breath and asked, “What did you say?”

Stella was not a dilly-dally kind of person, and she could not deny her feelings for Keegan.

She noticed everything that Keegan did to save their relationship these days. She figured it would not be right for her to keep him hanging, no matter how strong their relationship was. So, she wanted to take their relationship to another level since she could not turn back time.

She looked at Keegan and said, “Isn’t companionate marriage a trend now? Let’s give companionate dating a try, then. I’m going to give you a probation period as my boyfriend. If you do well, I’ll turn you into my legitimate boyfriend, but if you fail…”

Keegan immediately cut her off. “There won’t be another option. I’m going to pass with flying colors.”

Stella held her laughter in. “Don’t be overconfident. I haven’t even told you about the conditions yet.”

Keegan grabbed her hand and gave her his full attention. “Go on.”

“I only have one condition. During your probation, you’re not allowed to tell anybody about our relationship. You have to lay low where other people are around, understand?”

Keegan heard what Stella said and immediately frowned. “Is dating me an embarrassing thing to you?”

Stella kicked his calf. “Do you think getting remarried is not embarrassing?”

Keegan kept quiet. Even though he was not very happy with that answer, the word remarried made up for his dissatisfaction. He asked, “What about after passing the probation?”

Stella glared at him. “You’re overreaching. We’ll talk about this if you pass.”

Keegan thought for a moment before he said, “Does that mean that we can do everything that couples do during the probation period?”

Stella nodded.

Then, he moved closer to Stella and asked in a low voice, ’Including what happened last night?”

Stella glared at him again. ’Do the probationers in your company earn as much as your employees?”

Keegan replied, “Yes, they do.’

Stella kept quiet.

“They have the same salary?”

Keegan blatantly lied, “Of course. I’ll pay them the same salary if they’re equally capable.”
