Chapter 986
Keegan gradually fell asleep after some coaxing. Stella could not help but drift off to Keegan's steady breathing.
When the doctor came to make rounds the next morning, Keegan woke up to see Stella sleeping soundly. He pulled
the blanket over her and made shush gesture to the doctor.
The doctor quietly finished the check-up and left.
Stella did not wake up until it was almost 9:00 a.m. She opened her eyes and saw Keegan's handsome face close to
hers. Stella pinched his cheeks as she said hoarsely, "Why were you so fussy last night?"
Keegan found her words ambiguous, hearing them early in the morning. He could not help but think about how she
had asked him to follow the doctor's orders and feel distracted.
"When are you going to give me my reward you talked about yesterday?" asked Keegan.

Keegan's eyelids twitched at the sound of that. 'Do you only know how to start fires and not put them out?' he
thought. He took her hand, put it on his chest, and moved it down slightly.
Stella froze and sprang up instantly. She quickly withdrew her hand and stared at the man. "Behave yourself! This is
a hospital!" She gritted her teeth and said.
Keegan laughed and stopped teasing her. He then kissed her head and said in a low voice, "Let's pack up and get
you home."
"Mhm," Stella replied, pulling Keegan's clothes up to check his rashes. She was relieved that the red spots had
faded quite a lot.
The two packed up and proceeded with the discharge procedure. Keegan was queuing up at the front desk while
Stella waited at the corner of the lobby. Her hair hung loosely on her shoulders as she did not tie her hair up, and
her mask covered most of her face. Those who did not personally know her would have a hard time recognizing
her.
Stella was staring at Keegan. Among the people in the long queue, she could see Keegan's head floating above the
crowd. 'How can he be so tall and handsome? I can't stand how he lay in my arms last night, acting like a needy
puppy. He's so cute! Ah!' Stella's heart was full just thinking about how that man was hers.
Suddenly, Stella heard a familiar voice saying, "I can't put it off any longer. Seeing as the month is going to be big,
things are going to be harder if I don't do it now."
Stella paused and glanced aside indistinctly. Hylda was dressed in low-key clothing, and a handsome young man
followed behind her as they walked past Stella. The two were busy talking and did not notice her.
Stella pulled up her mask and followed them. She knew
Hylda would recognize her, so she did not dare to tail her too closely.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe two seemed to be arguing about something. Hylda did not look too good. The man put his arm around her
waist as though comforting her. They finally hugged but quickly let go and got on the elevator.
Suddenly, someone tapped on Stella's shoulder. She was shocked at first but relieved when she turned around and
saw that it was Keegan. "All done?" She asked.
"Mhm," Keegan replied. "What are you looking at?"
Stella pulled him aside and said, "I saw Hylda and her fake brother, Ian, here. They just got on the elevator." After
saying that, she continued in frustration, "I was afraid she would recognize me, so I didn't follow them too closely,
which meant I couldn't clearly hear what they were saying."
Keegan glanced at the elevator at said, "This elevator is used for even-numbered floors. The wards are on the
twelfth floor and above, the operating room is on the fourth floor, the men's health and urology department is on
the eighth floor, the orthopedics department is on the tenth floor, and the obstetrics and gynecology department is
on the sixth floor."
Stella was taken aback for a moment and made a guess based on what she had just heard, "She's here for an
abortion?!"
