Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted (Stella and Keegan) novel Chapter 1273

Chapter 1273

Stella chuckled and said, “We could call the cops, but Hylda wants everyone to join in. We gotta fight fire with fire. If the police handle it quiet, her reputation stays intact.”

Felicity worried. Hylda was sneakier than Bella. ‘That homewrecker, she twisted Albert around her finger, playing the waiting game as his secret love. Stella dashed those hopes. Now, she might try crazy stuff since her cash flow’s drying up.’

“Stella, maybe you should have Keegan arrange a bodyguard for you. I’m worried you might get beaten up.

While they talked, Keegan strolled in shirtless, wearing boxers like it’s his home. It was early morning, and Stella was more than happy to enjoy the view.

Keegan had an amazing physique. Muscles stood out, and Stella could not help peeking more than once.

Keegan had just woken up and felt a little groggy. When he saw Stella sitting cross-legged on the couch, sipping from her cup, he asked, “Got water?”

Stella pointed to the kitchen, “Yep, there. Cups in the cupboard.”

Keegan nodded, off to the kitchen. Stella almost choked on water when she saw his bare back. It was covered in scratches. His fair skin made those marks look obvious. In an instant, the scene last night replayed in Stella’s mind, and her face turned red.

‘Shit. Shit. Shit. I have to kick Keegan to the guest room tonight,’ thought Stella.

Soon, Keegan came back with water. “Ted call yet?”

Stella nodded. “Mr. Eldrich reached out to the person who made the post to gauge their stance.”

As Keegan took a sip of his drink, Stella leaned in and asked, “Hey, can you do something for me?”

Keegan felt a jolt of worry, his hand shaking. He put his cup down and grabbed a tissue. Calmly, he said, “What do you need? Is this gonna be something silly?”
