Chapter 1940

Stella was about to say something, but before she could speak, Keegan asked in a soft and hoarse

voice, "You don't believe me?"

Stella was taken aback, and she lowered her gaze.

Keegan knew her too well and could easily guess what was on her mind.

If Aurora had not acted strangely in front of Stella due to nervousness, which led to Stella noticing

Dahlia's plan, Stella would really be lying in a pool of blood right now.

Stella had difficulty conceiving, and this might be their only chance to become parents. Yet, Dahlia

wanted to strip them of this opportunity because of her own selfish motives.

Keegan knew that if something happened and the baby was gone, Stella would never be able to get

over it and continue her relationship with Keegan.

Even if she knew that he was equally innocent and heartbroken as she was.

Stella did not reveal her plan to Keegan because she wanted to make sure that Dahlia's plan could go

"smoothly", allowing her to catch Dahlia red-handed.

She was worried that telling Keegan about it in advance would make him soft-hearted, so she did not

want to leave that choice in his hands.

Stella felt a pang in her heart. Then, she lowered her gaze and said in a low voice, "Keegan, I don't

dare to take this gamble, nor can I afford to. I want our child to be born safely. I'll get rid of anyone who

poses a threat to him. I won't spare anyone who would harm us."

Keegan tightened his grip on her hand and asked, "And, you think I will?"

Stella curled her fingers and said after a long pause, "She’s your mother, after all. I just didn't expect

you to do the same. n

Keegan lowered his head and spoke in a hoarse voice," Stella, even if I'll be soft-hearted, she's still

trying to harm you and our child. Do you really think that I'm someone who can't distinguish right from

wrong?"

Stella felt a lump in her throat, finding it hard to utter a word.

Keegan crouched down, wrapped his arms around her waist, and pressed his face against her

stomach. "I'm sorry for not being good enough. It's my fault for not being able to make you feel safe

around me. I'll change. Next time, please talk to me if something happens. I don't want to be the last

one to know. I'm afraid that..."

Stella's heart melted, as she reached out to stroke his hair at the back of his head. Then, she lowered

her head and smiled. "What a scaredy cat."

"Let's go to the hospital for a checkup tomorrow, okay?" Keegan sounded gentle.

Stella rubbed her chin on the top of his head and said," You're the boss."

Keegan paused, as he was taken aback by her response.

He suddenly thought of how indifferent Stella was when he " defended" Jaylene previously.

Did she guess it?

But, how?’

Other than slightly losing his composure just now, he still believed that his act was flawless.

Keegan pursed his lips and suddenly let go of her.

Stella looked at him. 'What's wrong?"

Keegan stammered, "Well... it's all for the baby. Don't overthink it."

Stella was shocked.

'Is he seriously still going to keep pretending?'

After a moment of silence, Stella played along. "Don’t worry, I know my place."

She kept quiet after saying that.

In the silence, there was a hint of awkwardness.

Stella could not figure out why Keegan would not come clean at a time like this.

Keegan cleared his throat and broke the awkwardness."

Rest here. I'll ask Lena to come in and take care of you. I should go to the banquet hall and check

things out."

"Wait." Stella stopped him. 'If he's going to keep pretending, I should do the same, right?'

Keegan looked at her. "What's wrong?"

Stella pursed her lips. "Did you forget the reason I'm staying with you?"

Keegan was taken aback.

Stella reminded him. "To provide our child with a healthy family and work on our relationship."
