"Sure." Keegan was surprisingly compliant.
Then, he took some clean clothes and went to the bathroom while Stella lay on the bed and watched
those videos and photos after she changed into her pajamas.
It was like Jaylene had a pathological obsession with Keegan. She seemed to particularly enjoy the
time when he lost his ability to walk, and she had to take care of him. She would appear in almost
every video she took during that time. There was also a video that recorded the entire process of
Keegan being hypnotized.
During the process, he had not yet recovered, and his body was still very weak. That was the time
when his mental state was the most fragile, and it was reflected as such. The hypnotist tried three
times without success until Keegan took the medication in the end.
The attempt was not smooth as Keegan kept resisting mentally, so he looked painfully distressed in the
video.

were childhood sweethearts and loved each other. After all, hypnosis cannot alter memories.
After the failed attempts, the hypnotist suggested erasing his memory first. Then, he would give
Keegan a psychological suggestion, where upon hearing a certain sound, he would subconsciously rely
on and trust Jaylene.
Stella did not know whether to praise her for being so committed because she did such outrageous and
insane things for love or to mock her for being foolish enough to keep the evidence of hypnotizing
Keegan on her phone.
As she was almost done going through the videos, Keegan came out of the bathroom.
Stella wanted to ask if he had obtained any information from Jaylene during the hypnosis earlier. But
the moment she looked up, she saw Keegan walking toward her in a towel, dripping wet.
That was the first time he appeared in front of her like that since he returned from his disappearance.
He had not dried the water from his body, and droplets from his hair were falling on his chest and
collarbone.
His fair and smooth skin had many deep and shallow scars. The one on the side of his waist looked
particularly obvious.
Stella's eyelid twitched abruptly. She asked, "What happened to your clean clothes?"
Keegan answered, "I dropped them in the bathtub. They're all wet now."
As they spoke, the droplets on his body streamed into the towel tied around his waist.
She could not help but look at that, too.
Then, she immediately averted her gaze, "Can't you just tell me that in the bathroom? I would've
brought you a new set."
Keegan replied softly, "I didn't want you to wait too long. Besides, you're pregnant now and need to
have enough rest."
He reached for her ankle as he spoke, "You walked so much today; are your legs sore? I learned some
massaging techniques from the physician when I was in rehabilitation. Please allow me."
Stella was speechless.

"Keegan Kane, don't try to distract me with this. It's not going to work."
Keegan smiled at her as he gently replied while massaging her calf, "I just want you to relax a bit."
He then knelt on one knee and continued massaging her.
Stella had to admit that it felt good. However, as she was about to say something, she saw the scar on
the side of his waist when she lowered her head.
Then, she saw more scars on his chest and back.
Suddenly, interrogating him with the questions she had prepared became difficult, so she just kept
quiet.
As Keegan massaged her legs, he asked softly, "Why aren't you speaking?"
Stella snorted, "You're trying so hard to make me shut up. What else can I say?"
Keegan chuckled upon hearing that. Then, he raised his gaze and asked her with a smile, "Is it that
obvious?"
