Chapter 313
Keegan froze. “What effects?”
“Tonify and rejuvenate your sexual function.”
“Pfft-”
Stella spat out the soup in her mouth.
Keegan’s expression immediately darkened.
Arthur said, “I heard Maria, the housemaid, say that the Kane family’s been urging you two to conceive, so it’s time you two put this matter on your agendas. Stella’s still young, so her body is definitely fine. Yours might be a different case. You’re in your early thirties, and you sit in your office all day. If you don’t exercise more, you won’t be physically fit, and your future child won’t have a strong body. If the child’s unhealthy, Stella will be the one who suffers. That’s why I made you something good to rejuvenate your body.”
He continued as if he was listing out his treasures. “The chicken I used is an actual free-range chicken. I slaughtered it myself. I threw in many types of herbs like chaste tree, cramp bark, red clover, saw palmetto, maca, lactipusum, purple hook, macrbor, serpbacca… Anyway, they’re all good stuff. You’ll be as strong as an ox if you have it two to three times a week. Having two children within three years won’t be an issue.”
Stella went from being shocked initially to holding back her laughter.
‘Grandpa’s mindset is of a normal person’s. Why is it always the woman’s fault if a couple can’t conceive? I’m in my twenties, the most fertile period, while Keegan’s already in his early thirties. It’s obvious he has a higher chance of being the problem,’ she thought.
Keegan gritted his teeth and said with a dark expression. “I don’t need it!”
“Don’t say that.” Stella smiled with her eyes. “Don’t let grandpa’s kindness go to waste. You should tonify your body, honey. You’re only thirty, but you go to the washroom three times a night. What’ll happen when you get older?”
Arthur widened his eyes. “What? You wake up three times at night to urinate?”
Keegan twitched the corner of his lips as he watched Stella narrow her eyes like a fox. Then, he said through his gritted teeth, “That’s because I had diarrhea a few days ago. I’m very much normal!”
Keegan had a weak stomach. The seafood soup Arthur made two days ago may not have been fully cooked, so Keegan kept using the washroom throughout the night.
Stella certainly knew what happened and had deliberately said such things.
‘I’ve been taking the blame for being infertile for so long; it’s time Keegan got a taste of it too, ‘she thought.
Just as the water droplet was about to move into the towel, Keegan suddenly reached out and pulled off the bath towel. He was wearing a damn pair of beach pants underneath.
‘Well that’s no fun,’ Stella thought.
After she charged her phone, she closed her eyes and went to sleep.
Keegan only got in bed after he blow-dried his hair. Since Stella was exhausted, she quickly fell asleep after closing her eyes.
Suddenly, the person beside her turned. She frowned and pulled the covers tighter in displeasure.
Moments later, the person behind her rolled over again. He tossed and turned as if he was a pancake being flipped, causing Stella to be completely unable to fall asleep.
She then opened her eyes in annoyance. “What’s the matter with you?”
Keegan’s expression was tense, and his face was flushed. He was quiet for a long time before he finally said through gritted teeth, “What in the world was in that soup?!”
