Chapter 741
'Stella is grabbing my hand! She cares about me!' Leighton thought to himself.
Stella massaged him more and asked softly, "How do you feel? Any better?"
'Not only do I feel better, but I also feel like I'm floating in the sky!'
He replied in a low voice, "I feel okay."
"I'll keep on massaging for you then."
Leighton's manager was stunned as soon as he came inside. He saw Leighton burying his face in the pillow and letting the
doctor clean his wound.
Stella was holding his hand, and his ears looked extremely red. She massaged his hand while talking to him. Leighton looked
just like a tamed golden retriever puppy. He could not convince himself that he was the same pit bull he used to manage!
The door was pushed open again when he was still hesitating about talking to Leighton. An elegant man dressed in a suit came
inside.
Leighton's manager frowned. "Who are you?"
Keegan ignored him and directly walked toward Stella.
"Stella." He said softly.
Stella paused and looked at him coldly. ’Mr. Kane, you should wait until Mr. Hall's wounds are taken care of before you try to
make things right for him."
Keegan pursed his lips. "I didn't come here to do that. I'm worried about you."
He swept his gaze across Stella's hand and saw her holding Leighton's hand. Then, his gaze darkened.
Stella continued to massage Leighton and said lightly," Aren't you supposed to be working overtime? I didn’t know you could
clone yourself, Mr. Kane. You went on a date with Miss Saun and used your clone to work overtime at the office. You really are
the best at maintaining your work-life balance, huh?"
Keegan's face turned awkward as he said in a low voice, "I didn't lie to you because I want to eat with Jaylene. I just wanted your
attention."
Stella's eyelid twitched. "Nonsense!" Then, she thought, 'I should've never made a reservation for him! I cant believe he's doing
this!'
Stella was very mad that Keegan had lied to her. However, she figured Keegan would look guilty and scared when he saw her if
he lied just to eat with Jaylene.
But Keegan's eyes were filled with concern when she saw him, as if he had completely forgotten about his lie. Stella knew that
Keegan was not the smartest person regarding love and was not that good of an actor either.
"A lot of my father's old classmates were there too. I wasn't expecting to see Jaylene there at all." Keegan explained himself
before he suddenly thought about something." Stella, are you jealous?"
The corner of Stella's forehead twitched. "Ridiculous! I would never be! I'm just mad that you lied to me..."
"I'm sorry."
Keegan sounded very sincere when he apologized. He took Leighton's arm from Stella and said in a low voice, "I'll help him. You
should rest."
'This guy has been on my nerves for some time!'
Stella looked at him curiously. "Do you know how to do it?"
Keegan said seriously. "You did me for me several times when I had a headache. So I'm very familiar with it now."
So, Stella stood up and gave him her seat.
"His back is badly injured, and it's got to hurt a lot. You'll need to massage him longer."
Keegan smiled. "I got it."
Suddenly, a shiver ran down Leighton's spine. He felt like he was getting preyed on by a venomous snake, and it made his scalp
tingle.
He wanted to pull his hand back. "It doesn't hurt as much anymore."
Keegan grabbed his hand and said calmly, "Your wound is
so bad. I'm sure that you're in a lot of pain. You saved my wife, and I'll be sure to return you this favor. Bear with me; I'll start
now."
"What did you say? Wif- Ah-"
