Chapter 1787


    Chapter 1787


    Keegan nibbled his lip, feeling a weird sensation in his heart. His time with Ste before they got


    married didn’t seem as rocky as his mom said. ‘But then, why would I still have something she casually


    sketched in my desk drawer?’


    After staring at the drawing for a prolonged moment, he ced it back into the drawer.


    “Aldor, inform everyone I won’t attend the gathering today. Charge tonight’s expenses to my ount.


    We’ll have


    another gathering once I settle the matters at hand.”


    Aldor nodded, then asked, Mr. Kane, there are new desserts at Memorie Baker. Should we get some


    for Mrs. Kane?”


    “No need. Pregnant women should watch their sugar. It could make the baby too big for an easy birth,”


    Keegan said casually.

    This puzzled Aldor. ‘When did he learn all this?’


    Keegan was surprised himself. He hadn’t tried to remember it. When he stopped Ste from having an


    abortion, he had skimmed a booklet about caring for moms and babies. The details stuck in his head


    without much thought.


    He hesitated before saying, “Contact the owner of The Deli. Ask for pelmeni with shrimp filling. I’ll pick


    them upter.”


    “Alright.”Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated For All Books Updates…


    As Aldor was about to leave, Keegan stopped him, “About the items I asked you to collect at the


    hospital today…”


    Aldor nodded and whispered, “We’re already checking on it.”


    “Good. Be careful. Keep it low-key.”


    As Keegan returned, Ste was chatting with Trevor on the phone.


    Hearing the door, she peeked from the balcony and said, “I have to go. Keegan is back. Remember to


    text me before your flight tomorrow. Help me with what I asked, please.”


    Trevor grunted, “Sure thing, you sneaky one.”


    Steughed, “I’ll cook something special for you when you’re back. Even Keegan doesn’t get this


    treatment.”


    Trevor was happy but teased, “Your sweet talk won’t work. I’ll make a fuss if I don’t get that promised


    feast.”


    Steughed and chatted a bit more with Trevor before ending the call.


    As she came inside from the balcony, she bumped into Keegan.


    He nced at her phone and calmly said, “Cell phones emit radiation. Not good for expecting moms.”


    Ste rolled her eyes. “WiFi does too. Are you nning to take down all the signal towers in the city?”


    Keegan nodded and went closer, saying, “Head to the dining room. I brought pelmeni for you. Have


    something before resting.”


    Ste hesitated, a bit surprised.


    Keegan’s sudden consideration made her feel a little uneasy. She’d been discussing ways to win


    Keegan back with Felicity earlier. Although she didn’t know when or how Keegan fell for her initially,


    she believed she had some knowhow now. ‘I can be a caring wife, make him lunch daily, and entice


    him with alluring outfits, even if all he can do right now is look.’


    Ste had many ns, but she didn’t anticipate Keegan taking the lead.


    She stared at the hot pelmeni before her, softly stirring them with a spoon. “Shrimp filling?”


    “Yeah.”


    Ste felt moved, thinking he’d remembered her preferences even without recalling her.


    Surprisingly, Keegan added, “Shrimp is good for expecting moms.”


    Instantly, Ste lost her appetite.
