Chapter 1785
Keegan was surprised by the ice-cold sensation in his palm.
It felt colder than the bottled water he held.
1 Ste withdrew her hand, saying, "At least pretend to care if you''re thinking about having a child."
Keegan nced at his empty hand and gently clenched his fist.
Then, he turned to Aldor, instructing, "Turn up the heater." Aldor nodded, and soon the car''s
temperature increased.
Ste wasn''t genuinely feeling cold; she was just annoyed by Keegan''s apparent consideration for
Jaylene.
Keegan might haveforted Jaylene if she hadn''t shown up earlier.
Her once-confident understanding of Keegan now seemed uncertain.
Ste closed her eyes without looking at him again, feeling somewhat drained.
The physical changes from pregnancy quickly lulled her into sleep.
In her dream, she was diving.
It was strange; despite being underwater, she didn''t feel cold at all.
On the contrary, it wasfortably warm.
The underwater world was vibrant with colors, and schools of fish swam around.
As she dove deeper, a round, transparent, bubble- like object suddenly appeared in front of her.
With a thought, Ste gently poked it with her hand, and the bubble split into two.
They drifted toward her, and she tried to grab them, but her hands couldn''t move.
Suddenly, she felt breathless.
Ste struggled in her dream.
She slowly opened her eyes and found herself looking into Keegan''s eyes.

It dawned on her that she was resting against his chest, her hands securely held by his.
Keegan appeared momentarily surprised that she was awake, a flicker of difort passing through
his eyes.
However, he swiftly concealed it.
Releasing her hands, he casually remarked, "You can get out of the car now.” Ste nced at her
hands and then at him.
Keegan paused and exined, "You were asleep and holding onto me, so I held you back." Ste
remained silent, fixing her gaze on Keegan, which made him uneasy.
"Don''t believe me? Ask Aldor." Upon being called, Aldor cleared his throat and spoke up.
"Yes, indeed, Mr.
Kane is correct.
You were pulling on his arm, and the coldness of your hands made him hold onto you." Keegan''s brow
twitched as he nced at Aldor, who maintained a smile and a professional demeanor.
"Don''t think too much about it," Keegan said.
"Okay—" Ste drawled, then added, "Why bother exining so much? I didn''t even ask." Her
response left Keegan momentarily speechless.
Ste was in a cheerful mood.
She pushed open the door and stepped out of the car.
The neighbor''s dog had escaped and was nibbling at theirwn.
Ste bent down, grabbed its fluffy front legs, twirled it around twice, and then sent it back through the
neighbor''s door.
Keegan watched the unfolding scene, hesitating for a moment before asking Aldor, "Has she always
been like this?" Aldor did not answer.
Cordelia had arranged for a clean-up yesterday, and as Ste pushed the door open, she noticed the
house looked pristine.
There was hardly any change from before their divorce.
Many items that Ste had purchased together with Keegan—like slippers, cup sets, and tea mugs—
remained neatly ced as they used to be.
Keegan probably hadn''t been back since his return.
Given his current memory loss, encountering unfamiliar belongings in his home might prompt him to
request their removal.
When Ste turned to ask Keegan a question, she saw him standing in a daze before theirrge
wedding photo.
Approaching him, she stood by his side, ncing at him and then at the wedding picture.
"I must admit, you''ve aged quite a bit over the years.
Meanwhile, I seem to be getting more and more beautiful." Her words left Keegan speechless.
