Chapter 228
After Stella had bandaged his wound, Keegan had already fallen asleep.
She put away the first-aid kit and pondered a bit before lying down next to Keegan.
Every half an hour, Stella would get up to check Keegan’s temperature. At two in the morning, Keegan’s temperature finally dropped to 38 degrees. Only then did she finally breathe a sigh of relief and fall asleep as she could not stay up any longer.
The next day when Keegan woke up, he felt much better, except for his shoulder, which felt like there was a heavy rock on it.
He frowned and opened his eyes, wanting to push whatever was on his shoulder. But, before he could touch it, he saw Stella’s sleeping face. He could not help but recall what had happened in the bathroom last night.
After staring at Stella for a long time, he slowly moved his outstretched hand and moved her head aside.
Keegan looked at Stella with disgust as soon as he felt the wet drool on his shoulder. He then picked up a blanket and clumsily covered her with it.
When Stella woke up, it was already noon, and Keegan and Aldor were no longer in the Kane residence.
She cursed inwardly, “That bastard. I took care of him all night, yet he didn’t even thank me.”
Stella picked up her phone and realized that Felicity had called her many times. She quickly returned her call.
“Why did you take so long to return my call?” Felicity said through her gritted teeth, “I thought Bella’s fans had assassinated you!”
“I slept late last night, and I just woke up. What’s wrong? Why did you call me so many times?”
“Just check your social media,” replied Felicity.
“What is it about?” Stella asked.
“When Kelly, that bitch, was promoting her new drama, reporters asked her a few questions. She mocked you and said that you’re raising your own pay rate and acting like a diva!”
Stella frowned and quickly clicked on a social media app. The top trending topic was “Kelly Dusk Galaxy”. The next post was “Are Voice Actors More Suitable for Roles Than Actors?.” Both of these topics were filled with a strong sense of opposition.
Stella clicked on the post and saw the video Felicity had mentioned.
Kelly Harper’s company was about to release a web series. Although Kelly was not the director, she was credited as the screenwriter. Moreover, all the actors in the series were newly signed by Kelly’s company. In the past two years, web series adapted from web novels had been quite popular, and several new artists had gained their fame because of those series. Apparently, Kelly also wanted to take the same route. To promote the new series and her own artists, she had invited Bella Young to make a guest appearance as well.
Recently, Bella was on the list of trending searches because of her conflicts with the voice
After she was done cleaning up, Stella helped him out and changed his clothes.
Keegan gradually stopped talking and watched her. Somehow, he felt a tightness in his throat.
When Stella had finished sweeping up all the broken glass, she brought the first-aid kit over and changed the bandage on his arm.
Stella unwrapped the gauze and found that Keegan’s wound was bleeding again. The wound looked as though it had been stitched up again.
She thought to herself, ‘Didn’t he go to Bella? Does Bella know how to stitch up a wound?”
Stella did not have time to think about it, and she used a cotton swab to disinfect the wound.
Although Keegan was sleepy, he still looked at Stella without blinking. She was not wearing makeup, so the mole on her nose was partially visible, which looked similar to when they first met. But, it was also a bit different. He recalled that when she was handling those stains in the bathroom, her face never showed a hint of disgust throughout the entire process.
