Chapter 172

Unable to persuade further, Keegan refrained from speaking more.

Keegan could smell alcohol as Stella approached. Surprised, he asked, “Did you drink?”

“No,” said Stella, her face flushing red with alcohol. After denying it, she realized that the smell of beer

couldn’t be hidden, and lying would only worsen it. She corrected herself, “Not a lot. Just a little.”

It was indeed just as little as half a bottle of red wine. With Stella’s alcohol tolerance, half a bottle is not

enough to make her drunk.

Keegan stared at her for a few seconds, threw a towel at her, and said indifferently, “Wash yourself.”

This was the first in Stella’s life that she had to bathe someone.

Though they did mess around in the shower before, it was when she was trying to flirt with him by using

the excuse of rubbing his back.

Not even able to finish rubbing his back, she ended up giving up. In the end, he had to wash her up and

carry her back home.

In the past, Keegan rarely refused her advances. No matter how much he did not fancy her, they would

still be intimate in bed once she started flirting.

Since last year though, he seemed to avoid being intimate with her.

Since the argument about having kids, Keegan seemed to be less and less interested in her.

‘Maybe he’s tired of me, and not wanting any children is just an excuse. Or perhaps he purely just

wanted to protect Bella?’

‘What an asshole! Why don’t you consider protecting the one you love before you become intimate with

her?’

Still deep in her thoughts, someone suddenly caught her wrist.

Her eyes locked onto Keegan’s dark eyes as she returned to reality. He said in a hoarse voice, ” What

are you doing?”

Stella then realized that while her head was in the clouds, her hands had unconsciously rubbed

downwards.

Feeling awkward, she hurriedly retracted her hands, but with a sudden strong pull from Keegan, Stella’s

whole body fell into the tub.

Water splashed out of the bathtub as Stella fell against Keegan. She struggled to get up, almost choking

on the bath water.

Keegan single-handedly wrapped an arm around her waist, embracing her. The heat emanating from her

back caused Stella’s mind to draw a blank.

She heard Keegan’s deep and throaty voice ringing next to her ear. “I told you to change your clothes

earlier. Look what happened.”

The scene and speech were sufficient to make this an intimate moment.

On the contrary, Stella seemed to have actually drunk too much as she complained in her drunken state.

“It’s all because of you. How would it turn out this way otherwise?”

Keegan was astounded for a moment before he laughed out loud.

The rumbling chest from his laughter could not hide his joy.

Stella was stupefied. She turned her head and looked at him.

This was the first time she saw Keegan smile like this.

He had such good looks but disliked smiling, usually keeping a poker face. Even if he laughed, it was of

mockery and sneers.

The gentle yet intimate eyes right now were ones she had never seen before.

Stella opened her mouth, wanting to speak, but was stopped by a sudden kiss on her lips by Keegan.

She unconsciously opened her eyes in a daze, having forgotten to resist.

The alcohol may have made her braver, but her reaction, in contrast, was slower than usual.

Keegan was unusually gentler.

“It’s all my fault.”

Though still intimate, Stella thought in her daze, ‘What does he mean by that?’

Anything after that instance was out of her control.

All in all, this was a messed-up night.

In the early morning of the next day, Stella was woken up by the phone ringing.

With her eyes still closed, she rummaged through the side of her bed for a long while before she

remembered that the phone was at Keegan’s side. She then shifted and murmured to him, “Pick up the

phone.”

Keegan frowned, picked up the phone, and saw the phone showed… Fifty million?

Who could this possibly be?’

Keegan glanced at the woman, still refusing to open her eyes, and picked up the call.

“Hello?”
