Chapter 1787

Keegan nibbled his lip, feeling a weird sensation in his heart. His time with Stella before they gotmarried didn’t seem as rocky as his mom said. ‘But then, why would I still have something she casuallysketched in my desk drawer?’

After staring at the drawing for a prolonged moment, he placed it back into the drawer.

“Aldor, inform everyone I won’t attend the gathering today. Charge tonight’s expenses to my account.We’ll have

another gathering once I settle the matters at hand.”novelbin

Aldor nodded, then asked, Mr. Kane, there are new desserts at Memorie Baker. Should we get somefor Mrs. Kane?”

“No need. Pregnant women should watch their sugar. It could make the baby too big for an easy birth,”Keegan said casually.

This puzzled Aldor. ‘When did he learn all this?’

Keegan was surprised himself. He hadn’t tried to remember it. When he stopped Stella from having anabortion, he had skimmed a booklet about caring for moms and babies. The details stuck in his headwithout much thought.

He hesitated before saying, “Contact the owner of The Deli. Ask for pelmeni with shrimp filling. I’ll pickthem up later.”

“Alright.”Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated For All Books Updates…

As Aldor was about to leave, Keegan stopped him, “About the items I asked you to collect at thehospital today…”

Aldor nodded and whispered, “We’re already checking on it.”

“Good. Be careful. Keep it low-key.”

As Keegan returned, Stella was chatting with Trevor on the phone.

Hearing the door, she peeked from the balcony and said, “I have to go. Keegan is back. Remember totext me before your flight tomorrow. Help me with what I asked, please.”

Trevor grunted, “Sure thing, you sneaky one.”

Stella laughed, “I’ll cook something special for you when you’re back. Even Keegan doesn’t get thistreatment.”

Trevor was happy but teased, “Your sweet talk won’t work. I’ll make a fuss if I don’t get that promisedfeast.”

Stella laughed and chatted a bit more with Trevor before ending the call.

As she came inside from the balcony, she bumped into Keegan.

He glanced at her phone and calmly said, “Cell phones emit radiation. Not good for expecting moms.”

Stella rolled her eyes. “WiFi does too. Are you planning to take down all the signal towers in the city?”

Keegan nodded and went closer, saying, “Head to the dining room. I brought pelmeni for you. Havesomething before resting.”

Stella hesitated, a bit surprised.

Keegan’s sudden consideration made her feel a little uneasy. She’d been discussing ways to winKeegan back with Felicity earlier. Although she didn’t know when or how Keegan fell for her initially,she believed she had some knowhow now. ‘I can be a caring wife, make him lunch daily, and enticehim with alluring outfits, even if all he can do right now is look.’

Stella had many plans, but she didn’t anticipate Keegan taking the lead.

She stared at the hot pelmeni before her, softly stirring them with a spoon. “Shrimp filling?”

“Yeah.”

Stella felt moved, thinking he’d remembered her preferences even without recalling her.

Surprisingly, Keegan added, “Shrimp is good for expecting moms.”

Instantly, Stella lost her appetite.
