Chapter 224
Stella’s heart sank as Keegan’s words planted the seed that made her begin to lose hope of winning his love.
Despite knowing that Keegan had only married her under duress and was in love with another, Stella’s youthful confidence led her to believe that since they were already married, it was just sooner or later that she could win him over and have him all by herself.
But, it was all a delusion
that other person remained in Keegan’s heart. No matter how hard she tried or how well she did, there would never be a place for her in his heart.
She recalled that Keegan began to talk nonsense as his temperature rose to 38 degrees at that time.
This time, his temperature was very high. Stella doubted that it was lower than last time. Most likely, the fever was caused by wound inflammation. No matter how many grudges Stella held against him, she did not want anything to happen to him. So, after a short thought, she said goodbye to the caretaker and left.
After Aldor hung up the phone, he found the fever reducer. He poured a glass of water and brought it upstairs.
Keegan was lying on the bed with one hand on his forehead. His brows were furrowed, his face was pale, and he looked extremely uncomfortable.
Aldor softly said, “Mr. Kane, you should take medicine.” Then, he added, “Madam asked me to take your temperature half an hour later to see if the medicine worked. If your fever starts to go down, you won’t need to go to the hospital.”
Keegan opened his eyes and spoke in a hoarse voice. “Who told you to call her?”
Due to his weakened state, his voice was soft. So, even if he was angry, he did not sound intimidating.
Aldor replied, “I couldn’t find any fever reducers, and your fever is too severe.”
Keegan pursed his lips and paused for a moment before he asked, “What else did she say?”
“She told you to take the medicine,” Aldor answered. “She’s very worried about you.”
