‘Stella is grabbing my hand! She cares about me!' Leighton thought to himself.
Stella massaged him more and asked softly, "How do you feel? Any better?"
‘Not only do I feel better, but I also feel like I'm floating in the sky!' He replied in a low voice, "I feelokay."
"I'll keep on massaging for you then."
Leighton's manager was stunned as soon as he came inside.He saw Leighton burying his face in thepillow and letting the doctor clean his wound.
Stella was holding his hand, and his ears looked extremely red.She massaged his hand while talking tohim.
Leighton looked just like a tamed golden retriever puppy.
He could not convince himself that he was the same pit bull he used to manage! The door was pushedopen again when he was still hesitating about talking to Leighton.
An elegant man dressed in a suit came inside.
Leighton's manager frowned.
"Who are you?" Keegan ignored him and directly walked toward Stella.
"Stella." He said softly.
Stella paused and looked at him coldly.
"Mr.Kane, you should wait until Mr.Hall's wounds are taken care of before you try to make things rightfor him." Keegan pursed his lips.
"I didn't come here to do that.I'm worried about you." He swept his gaze across Stella's hand and sawher holding Leighton's hand.
Then, his gaze darkened.
Stella continued to massage Leighton and said lightly, "Aren't you supposed to be working overtime? Ididn't know you could clone yourself, Mr.Kane.You went on a date with Miss Saun and used your cloneto work overtime at the office.You really are the best at maintaining your work-life balance, huh?"
Keegan's face turned awkward as he said in a low voice, "I didn't lie to you because I want to eat withJaylene.I just wanted your attention."
Stella's eyelid twitched.
"Nonsense!"
Then, she thought, 'I should've never made a reservation for him! I can't believe he's doing this!’ Stellawas very mad that Keegan had lied to her.

"Stella, are you jealous?"novelbin
The corner of Stella's forehead twitched.
"Ridiculous! I would never be! I'm just mad that you lied to me..."
"I'm sorry."
Keegan sounded very sincere when he apologized.
He took Leighton's arm from Stella and said in a low voice, "I'll help him.You should rest."
‘This guy has been on my nerves for some time!' Stella looked at him curiously.
"Do you know how to do it?" Keegan said seriously.
"You did me for me several times when I had a headache.So I'm very familiar with it now."
So, Stella stood up and gave him her seat.
"His back is badly injured, and it's got to hurt a lot.You'll need to massage him longer." Keegan smiled.
"I got it."

"It doesn't hurt as much anymore."
Keegan grabbed his hand and said calmly, "Your wound is so bad.I'm sure that you're in a lot ofpain.You saved my wife, and I'll be sure to return you this favor.Bear with me; I'll start now."
"What did you say? Wif— Ah—"
