Chapter 844
Keegan kissed Stella's lips again and said, "Thank you for taking that one step. You're much braver than me taking
those 99 steps toward you."
Stella was surprised that their 18+ romance had turned into a high school romance. 'Fuck,' she thought to herself.
"Stella, I-" Before Keegan could finish his words, Stella suddenly grabbed his collar and started biting his lips. She
was not as patient as him. She kissed him passionately and let go of him after that. She then stared at him and
said, "You idiot!"
Keegan was confused. Stella jumped off the shoe cabinet with a dark face and walked away. Keegan did not know

Just as he was thinking about it, the doorbell rang. Keegan came back to his senses and answered the door. It was
the community security guard holding a bouquet of flowers. The security guard was shocked when he saw a man
open the door. "Is Ms. Jewell home?" he asked.
Keegan glanced at the bouquet and said lightly, "Is something wrong?"
"Someone left Ms. Jewell this bouquet of flowers at the guardhouse. One of my colleagues informed me that she's
back, so I'm here to give it to her. Can you ask her to come and get it?"
"Just give it to me,' Keegan said.
The security guard hesitated. "Sorry, but you are?"
Keegan looked at him in disdain and said, "I'm her husband."
The security guard was at a loss for words. 'Someone else gave her flowers on Valentine's Day, and her husband is
the one to receive them? Oof.' He then quickly handed the flowers to Keegan and left.
Keegan held the bouquet of flowers and saw a card inside. He took it out and saw the words: [You got this.] He
could tell that it was Marshall's handwriting without looking at the signature.
"Who was it?" Stella came out of the kitchen with two glasses of water.
Keegan stuffed the card into his pocket calmly and handed her the flowers. "Happy Valentine's Day," he said.
Stella was surprised. "You got me flowers?"
"Yeah," Keegan replied with a straight face.
Stella's anger disappeared immediately. She took the bouquet of flowers and started looking for a vase. "These look
way better than the ones you got me before. Good job," she said.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmKeegan had always gotten Stella roses in pink wrapping paper because he thought that girls liked pink. However,
this bouquet was different. It consisted of lilies, carnations, and daises. Their colors complemented each other so
much that all Stella had to do was put them directly into a vase. She did not have to rearrange them.
Keegan stayed quiet. He was mad and a little hurt when he heard Stella's praise. He pursed his lips and crumpled
up the card in his pocket.
When Stella was dealing with the flowers, she turned around and saw that Keegan was sullenly sitting on the couch.
"What's wrong?" she asked.
"You didn't like the flowers I got you previously?"
