Chapter 227
Stella thought that Keegan was deliberately clinging to her. But, she realized that she had misunderstood him as soon as he said, “Me too.”
Stella said resignedly, “You first.”
Keegan got up from the bed. But, as soon as he stood up, his feet went wobbly, and he was about to fall to the ground.
Luckily, Stella reacted quickly. She grabbed his collar and pulled him back, so he fell on the bed instead.
The fever reducer that Stella had given Keegan had a particularly strong effect. She herself had taken it once and quickly felt drowsy and weak.
She thought to herself, ‘Judging from his state, I guess the medicine has already kicked in.’ So, she said, “I’ll get Aldor to help.” As she spoke, she tried to get up, but Keegan held her down. “No, don’t go!” Keegan yelled.
Stella then explained, “But, I can’t move you alone.”
He gave a determined stare and refused to let Aldor come. At that moment, his face was red.
Stella was a little late when she realized, ‘Keegan cares a lot about his image. Maybe he’s afraid. that Aldor would see him in his embarrassing state, which will affect his CEO image.’
Keegan moved his lips and said softly, “Just help me walk.”
Keegan remained resolute, so Stella had no choice but to help him to the bathroom.
Once they finally made it there, Keegan kicked her out. Initially, Stella thought that it would be awkward to assist Keegan in using the toilet, so this worked out well for her. She waited outside for a long time, but Keegan did not come out. Just as she was about to knock on the door to check on him, she heard a big crash from inside as if something had fallen over.
Without thinking, Stella pushed open the bathroom door.
Keegan was lying in a mess on the ground. The shelf next to him was also knocked over, and the items were scattered everywhere.
