Chapter 225
Stella felt both anger and amusement as she looked at Keegan. He was like the stray cat that used to hang around her childhoodhome. She had fed it for almost six months, but one day she accidentally kicked it in the head while she was opening the door.After that, the cat would never let her touch it. Every time she tried to pet it, the cat would move its head to avoid her, just likeKeegan was doing now.
Although she could not catch the stray cat, Stella knew how to deal with Keegan. She stared at him for a few seconds, took offher shoes, and climbed onto the bed to straddle him. She reached for his shirt, which surprised Keegan and caused him tostruggle as soon as he regained his senses.
Normally, Stella might not be able to hold him down. But, now that he was burning with a fever, he was as weak as a sick cat. Itdid not take long for Stella to unbutton his shirt, revealing his bare chest.
“Stella, do you have no shame?!” Keegan shouted.Perhaps it was because of Keegan’s anger or his fever that his entire face was flushed. Even his neck had a faint pinkish hue.Stella, who was straddling him, suddenly felt a sense of control over the man. “To be honest, this is quite enjoyable.”
Stella placed the thermometer under Keegan’s armpit before she covered him with a blanket. In a tone that imitated how CEOsflirt with their young wives in web novels, she said to Keegan, “Is there any part of your body that | haven’t seen? We've beenmarried for so long, so why do | need to have shame?”
Keegan coughed angrily.novelbin
Stella comforted him by stroking his chest. “I don’t mind you baring your chest in front of me. But, you're the one acting it like it’sa big deal.”
Keegan was very furious and was about to scold the unruly woman. However, before he could say anything, she took advantageof the situation and shoved the pill inside his open mouth. The pill slid down his throat right after she pinched his chin and lifted itup.
Keegan was already feeling unwell, and he was about to get angry at her antics. However, before he could say anything, he metStella’s smiling eyes.
“How is it? It’s not bitter, right?”For some reason, he suddenly could not bring himself to get angry.
Keegan grumbled, “Try shoving one directly inside your throat and see how you would feel.” “This is how you should take a pill.Otherwise, it'd taste bitter on your tongue. If you hadn’t broken the glass, | wouldn’t have to feed you the pill like this.” Stellaretorted.
With that, she climbed down from the bed and rummaged through the cabinet to find a pack of dried fruit. “Try one of these. It'llmake you feel better. They're sweet and sour. They’re really tasty,” she said as she held a piece of dried fruit out to Keegan’smouth.
Keegan was about to decline, but before he could say anything, Stella used the same trick andstuffed that piece of dried fruit into his mouth.Just as Stella promised, it was sweet and sour.
Supposedly, when someone had a fever, they would not be able to taste anything since their taste buds were affected. But, thesour and sweet taste suddenly spread inside Keegan’s mouth like colors being added to a black and white painting. It instantlymade his mood a little brighter.
After Keegan had swallowed the medicine, he remembered something. “Did hands?”
Stella paused in her actions and murmured, “Um...”

Keegan instantly knew that she did not wash her hands. He scowled and wanted to spit out that piece of dried fruit, but Stellaquickly covered his mouth. “My hands are not dirty. Don’t spit it out.”
Keegan was gasping for air under her hold. Then, he finally swallowed the piece of dried fruit whole. He did not have the strengthto push her away, so he grabbed her wrist to signal her to
‘bletStella asked, “Have you swallowed it?”Keegan shot her a glare. But, after a while, he finally blinked.
Stella then released her hold. But, in the next second, with a burst of strength, Keegan grabbed her waist tightly and forcefullyturned over, pressing her underneath him.
He gripped her neck, and through his gritted teeth while panting, he said, “Mess with me again, and I'll skin you alive!”
