I’m warning you, behave yourself when you’re in the car. I don’t know the new driver very well yet. Although he seems like an honest man, I can’t be sure if he’ll gossip about US to others. So, just act like we’re in public, understand?”
Stella said to Keegan even before the car arrived.
She had no choice but to do that. Ever since she exposed Keegan for regaining his memory, he had become worse at disguising himself.
For example, when they saw someone they knew while eating, and she was maintaining the act of their strained relationship, Keegan would have already wiped her utensils clean.
When she glared at him with a stern look to remind him, he would say, ’ We’ve got to pay attention to hygiene. Don’t get sick and pass it on to me. It’s annoying.”
Then, Stella utilized her acting skills and had a “fight” with him. Then, they would finish their meal with a “cold face.”
After the same thing happened a few times, Stella dared not to go out with Keegan anymore. She feared that his plan of faking his memory loss would be exposed sooner or later because of how lovesick he was.
Keegan said seriously, “Even if you don’t believe in my acting skills, how can you lose faith in your teaching abilities?”
