    Chapter 1736


    Coco was anxious to know Keegan''s answer.


    Keegan nced toward her room and proceeded to recite a string of numbers.This left Coco utterly


    confused.


    "What are you saying now?"


    "The barcode for your sketchbook," Keegan responded.


    Coco was baffled.

    Keegan lifted his index finger, gently tapped his temple, and said, "I thought you liked reading about


    people with superpowers.Do you know some people can remember things at a nce? I''m one of


    them."


    Coco did not respond.


    ‘How did he go from having amnesia to being so annoying?’ she thought.


    Keegan ruffled her hair and walked away, phone in hand.


    Meanwhile, Ste turned around to see Marshall in the driver''s seat of an MPV.


    Ste walked over.


    "Mr.Moore, what are you doing here?"


    Marshall smiled, saying, "I actually came here to see you.I was thinking of giving you a call, but then I


    unexpectedly saw you at the entrance."


    Ste was taken aback.


    "You''re here to meet me?"


    Marshall nodded.


    "Yeah.You mentioned earlier about apanying me to apologize to Mr.Saun."


    "Oh, right.Ipletely forgot about that."


    Marshall looked at her with a mild gaze and asked, "Is today okay for you?"


    "Ye—"


    Ste paused, suddenly recalling what Coco had mentioned to her earlier.


    After a moment of consideration, she altered her response.


    "I''ve juste back from a trip with my friend and really need some rest.How about tomorrow? My dad


    should be free then; it''s the weekend."


    Marshall nodded.


    "Alright."


    Ste grinned.


    Marshall hesitated for a moment, then lowered his eyes.


    "It''s been long since I''ve seen you smile like this.Keegan''s return seems to have improved every aspect


    of your life."


    Ste''s smile faded a bit at the mention of that name.Her expression turned serious.


    "I''ve caused you a lot of trouble during this time.I appreciate your help and will forever remember your


    kindness.If there''s anything I can do for you, please don''t hesitate to let me know."


    "Anything?"


    "Yes.I''d do anything as long as it''s within my capacity," Ste replied.


    Marshall smiled.


    "I don''t need you to do anything for me.I just...If Keegan never regains his memory, could you give me


    achance?"


    Ste was taken aback.She said, "I''m sorry.I-"


    "Ste, don''t turn me down so quickly," he said, looking at her affectionately.


    "Did you know I was crazy about you after our first encounter at Rotona Pinnacle Hospital? I thought it


    was fate to encounter you three times in a week.I wondered if I could take our connection further during


    our fourth or fifth encounter."


    "However, I learned about you being Keegan''s wife during the charity banquet.I''ve been trying hard to


    keep my feelings in check since then.But now, with this chance ahead of me, I want to pursue it, even if


    the odds aren''t great."


    Ste couldn''t deny being touched by his words.She''d never heard such a tender and heartfelt


    confession before.


    In contrast, Keegan had always been awkwardly direct.He had kept his emotions hidden until after their


    divorce.


    Marshall had consistently been calm and kind.He would understand if she refused.He had been


    amodating and understanding, even when she used him to try and win Keegan back.


    Ste felt guilty for causing him pain each time she turned him down.


    Looking down, Ste took a moment before saying, "If things don''t work out between Keegan and me


    in the end, and you still feel the same way, we can give it a try."


    Ste was pregnant.She believed that no man would be okay with her being pregnant with another


    man’s child.


    '' Marshall appears keen at the moment, but I''m sure his enthusiasm will fade once my pregnancy starts


    showing in a few months.He''ll probably turn down the idea of us by then"
