Chapter 693
Stella was shocked and slapped his chest. She then angrily said, "Keegan, what are you doing?"
Keegan did not say a word and put her on the bed. Stella's eyelids fluttered violently. ’This mongrel, he
wouldn't be doing something out of frustration because he failed his pursuant, right?'
Keegan had his palms supporting the bed frame. Under Stella's watchful gaze, he lowered his head
and gave her a peck on her forehead. Seeing that Stella did not refuse or reject him, Keegan suddenly
felt delighted.
He said, "You can reject me, but I reject your rejection of me."
Stella was speechless. 'This guy put me here just to do this?' she thought.
After he finished speaking, Keegan lay down next to her. The mattress was not very wide. Keegan's
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtphysique was large, and he could only lie down on his side. His body was very close to hers. It was so
close that Stella could feel his breath and hear his powerful heartbeat. His heart thumped again and
again. It was completely different from the calm expression he had on the surface. Stella's heart was
trembling as well.
"I still need to go for training tomorrow," Stella said.
Keegan then replied, "I'll send you over tomorrow morning."
"I want to leave now," She requested.
She wanted to sit up, but Keegan was clutching her waist tightly and said,' Stay by my side, at least for
tonight."
It was not an ordering tone. Instead, it was slightly similar to begging.
Stella's heart softened. She gripped her fingers tightly and tried her best not to fall for his trap and tone.
She said in a low voice, "You are being unreasonable."
"Mhm," He did not deny it and answered softly without the slightest hint of anger. He got closer and
lightly nuzzled Stella's cheeks. "I've restrained myself too much in the past. I didn't know what you
wanted, and I didn't know what I wanted."
Stella's voice was stuck as she spoke, "You wouldn't mind that I like Trevor?
Keegan's body stiffened. After a while, he said in a low tone, "I will convince you that I'm better than
Trevor. You will like me."
Stella opened her mouth but did not say anything in the end. She had already said enough. She did not
want to stab him in the heart anymore.
Keegan was not a fool and would eventually know that she was bluffing.
'It's just so annoying,' Stella thought. She turned around and looked out the window.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe only lights that came in were from the fishing boats left on the sea's surface. They were dimly lit,
and the crescent moon was also in the sky with faintly visible stars. She initially thought she would
have difficulty falling asleep. In the end, Stella's breathing was much steadier and longer after closing
her eyes for a moment.
Keegan opened his eyes and slightly supported the weight of his body. He swiped away the tufts of hair
that were on her face, then he kissed her on the forehead. Another one between the eyebrows, her
nose, and finally, her pink lips. His taste for her lips deepened, and his hands could not help but land on
her waist.
He felt the urge in his body and stopped his actions with a frown. He then lightly pecked the corner of
Stella's lips. Only then could Keegan finally lay back and calm himself down bit by bit.
'You can't be too hasty with this,' He said to himself in his mind. Stella was already defensive toward
the Kane family. He had to make her see his sincerity.
'There is also Trevor,' Thinking of this, Keegan searched for a phone number before calling it. The
phone rang for a short moment and got through.
"Keegan?” A refreshing voice of a woman came from the other side of the phone.
