Chapter 1764
The general hospital was owned by the local government, so it was always crowded. When the elevator doors opened, it was filled with people.
There were patients, people who came to visit their friends and family, and even medical staff. One of the staff urged, “Let them exit the elevator first before entering. Watch your step, and don’t push onto other people.”
After some people exited the elevator, Stella and Keegan were pushed into it by the people behind them.
Someone bumped into Stella, causing her to stumble. But in the next second, Keegan wrapped his arm around her waist.
His tall stature and stern expression made people instinctively keep their distance from him. So, by leveraging his body and the elevator wall, he created a small space for Stella.
Stella stood in front of him, and when she lifted her head, she could see his sharp jawline. She got an idea and immediately wrapped her arms around his waist.
Keegan’s body stiffened, and he instinctively wanted to push her hands away.
However, Stella held on to him even tighter as she threatened him softly,” I’ll shout for help if you dare push me away.”
Keegan was speechless.
He glanced at Stella and said flatly, “There’s a surveillance camera in here.
You can’t set me up just like that.”
Then, Stella took his hand and placed it on her chest.
Feeling the softness beneath his palm, Keegan was momentarily shocked. When he recollected himself, he saw Stella smiling with her eyes. “Oops, there’s a camera,” she said softly.
Keegan gritted his teeth and took her hand back resentfully, muttering,” Could you ever act like a lady?”
Stella thought, ‘How can I ever make you reveal your true self if I act like a lady? Get off your high horse already!’
