    Chapter 1763


    Cordelia was so sharp that she instantly understood Ste’s intention. She sighed, “Howe I didn’t


    realize you had so many clever ideas up your sleeve before?”


    Ste chuckled and said gently yet firmly, “He used to be one who protected me before, and it’s time for


    me to protect him now. Grandma, didn’t you always used to say that spouses should always support


    each other?” 1

    A hint of warmth shed across Cordelia’s eyes. After a while, she said, “It seems like choosing the


    right person to be with is the only thing Keegan’s good at.”


    Ste could not agree more.


    When Keegan returned to the ward, Ste had already changed into her clothes.


    Cordelia exchanged a few words with Keegan and left with Baldwin. She was in a particrly good


    mood today and wanted to go to the church and pray for her family.


    Ste packed her bag slowly. Keegan checked the time and asked, “Can you speed it up a little?”


    Ste did not listen to him, “You can go first if you’re in a hurry.”


    Keegan had no choice but to shut up and hand her the things still on the table. Ste thanked him. But


    after putting everything in her bag, she took them all out.


    Keegan was puzzled.


    She fumbled with her stuff as if she was looking for something.


    Keegan did not want to say anything at first because Ste did not ask for his help despite searching


    for so long. That made him feel ufortable.


    Ste wanted him to marry her willingly, but he would never expect that getting ignored would be the


    way of achieving it.


    He cleared his throat and asked, “What are you looking for?”


    Ste kept her head down, sounding a little nervous as she said, “A ne?” “A ne? What


    does it look like?” “It’s a silver ne with a rectangr pendant.”


    Keegan began looking around the room for her. After searching the entire room, he lifted the pillow and


    saw a shiny object. Keegan took it, and his gaze suddenly turned cold.


    Ste turned around and saw the ne in Keegan’s hand. She immediately took it from his hand,


    relievedly saying, “Oh, there you are.”


    Ste unfastened the sp and wore the ne around her neck.


    Keegan looked at the ne on her corbone and pursed his lips. His tone suddenly turned cold


    when he said, “I’ll wait for you outside. Hurry up and pack your things. Aldor has been waiting


    downstairs for a long time.” “Oh,” Ste responded, looking at Keegan’s receding back and smirking.


    Keegan felt a little bothered. He just could not get his mind off the ne Ste was looking for


    earlier. He had an excellent memory; he would not easily forget it once he had seen something.


    For example, when he saw the ne just now, he instantly recognized it. It was the “love token” that


    Marshall had given her on the stage when they went to the concert together.


    That video was taken very clearly. Marshall not only gave her the ne but also “kissed” her.


    ‘Didn’t she say she wanted to see if things could work out between US? Is she going to do that by


    wearing the “love token” given by Marshall?


    ‘Can I ever trust this woman and her sweet words?’


    As he was sulking, the door behind him opened. Ste walked out from inside. She wore a mask, a


    cap, and a loose hoodie, exuding a youthful vibe.


    “Let’s go,” Ste said softly before heading toward the elevator.


    Keegan stared at her attire and btedly followed suit.
