    Ste piled the clothes up and looked up, asking, "Do you know who gave me these clothes?"


    Keegan shook his head, but as he saw Ste''s expression, he took a guess. "Jaylene?"


    "Good guess."


    Keegan frowned. "Even if you weren''t pregnant, these clothes wouldn''t fit you, right? Why would she


    give you clothes that don''t fit?"


    ''To mess with me, obviously. She''s mad because she had to apologize, so she''s giving me these,''


    Ste thought to herself.


    But she said something else, "To show off that she''s skinnier than me. Her legs are like twigs, so slim


    and straight. They''re much prettier than mine, don''t you think?"


    "I haven''t really noticed."


    Keegan wasn''t about to get caught in Ste''s trap. It wasn''t because he saw through it, but because he


    simply hadn''t paid attention to Jaylene''s legs. To Keegan, there were only two types of women: Ste


    and everyone else. 1


    He never really cared whether other women were conventionally attractive or had a great figure. The

    only thing about Jaylene that ever caught Keegan''s attention was her overly prominent corbone.


    But it wasn''t because Keegan found it appealing. Subconsciously, he associated her with the images of


    emaciated refugees he''d seen on the news, thinking she might be suffering from malnutrition.


    As for Ste, while she didn''t have wless skin, she had a lively presence.


    She wasn''t too chubby or too skinny. Herplexion was always rosy, including her lips, as if she was


    constantly wearing lipstick. Plus, her hair was full and voluminous, thanks to her healthy eating habits.


    Keegan cared more about Ste''s overall health than her body size.


    However, he wouldn''t be able to handle it if she became as thin as Jaylene, who appeared unhealthy to


    him.


    tel looked him up and down and asked with a smile, "Don''t you prefer skinny, long legs?"


    Keegan felt a ttery feeling in his chest, as if he''d been tickled by her gaze. He nced up and


    couldn''t help but chuckle.


    Ste was puzzled by hisughter as she nudged him. "What''s funny?"


    Keegan grabbed her ankle and softly stroked her calf with his warm hands. Then, he looked at her and


    said slowly, "What''s great about skinny legs? They''re no fun."


    Ste paused, suddenly realizing that Keegan was teasing her. Then, she blushed and kicked her


    chest. "What a pervert!"


    Keegan pulled her into his arms and carried her back to the bedroom.


    After closing the door, Keegan opened the bedside table, retrieved a watch, and ced it on Ste''s


    wrist.


    Ste shook her wrist and looked at him. "What''s this? A gift for my new job?"


    The watch was adorned with diamonds and looked quite extravagant.


    Ste thought she was already good at unting, but the watch took it to another level.


    Keegan sat next to her, grabbed her hand, and looked at the watch. "The mastermind who kidnapped


    US hasn''t been found yet, and it''s bothering me. Ste, there''s a tracker in this watch, but don''t worry, I


    won''t check it unless I can''t contact you."


    Ste paused as she thought to herself, ''Well, at least he''s honest about it.''


    Keegan was afraid that Ste might feel ufortable, so he said softly," It''s fine if you don''t want it."


    Even though Trevor had arranged for his trusted assistant, Xavier, to look after Ste, Keegan still felt a


    bit anxious.


    Ste wasn''t bothered. As she examined the watch, she remarked, "With such a pricey watch, I''ll get


    robbed before anything else happens. How about putting the tracker in a cheaper one? That way, I''ll


    feel safer."
