Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted (Stella and Keegan) novel Chapter 128

Chapter 128

Dahlia did not answer Stella’s question. Instead, she asked, “You didn’t know about what happened to Aurora?”

Stella was taken aback. “I visited my mother after the banquet last night and had no knowledge of what happened afterward, apart from Mr. Snyder sending Aurora home.”

Dahlia was troubled. “I’m not entirely sure what happened either. Aurora came back crying this morning and said that Keegan had locked her in a restroom overnight, but she didn’t tell me about it clearly. I thought you might know something since you were at the banquet last night.”

Stella was shocked. “Keegan actually locked Aurora in the bathroom all night! Is he insane?! But, it couldn’t have been for my sake. I’m not that self–absorbed.”

When she remembered Trevor thanking her at Cordelia’s house, Stella realized that Trevor must have known about the incident since he did not seem concerned about how Jaylene was trapped in the restroom.

Trevor had remained silent on who was responsible for the incident, likely because Keegan had taken it upon himself to punish Aurora.

This could be seen as a form of explanation for the Saun family. It had sought retribution for Jaylene and, indirectly, Stella.

Stella looked confused and said, “I don’t have any information either. Keegan didn’t tell me anything. How is Aurora doing? Is she okay?”

“She’s fine. She just got a minor cold,” replied Dahlia. “She took some medicine and is now sleeping.”

Stella thought to herself, ‘Serves her right!‘ But, she pretended to show concern. “Let me call Mr. Snyder to check. He was there last night, so he should know what happened.”

Dahlia declined Stella’s offer and said, “No need for that.” She instead made an appointment with Stella for a check–up tomorrow. Apparently, Dahlia did not want to involve outsiders in the household matter.

The next morning, Stella woke up to find Keegan gone from the Kane residence, leading her to assume he had spent the night in the study.

When Maya was babbling about Keegan skipping breakfast again, Stella rolled her eyes and thought, ‘Come on. He’s an adult. How could he possibly starve himself?‘

As Stella was about to leave, Maya handed her a lunch box and said, “Madam, please take this to Mr. Kane. He’s been having a bad appetite lately, possibly due to his stomach problems. I made him some porridge, so make sure he eats it while it’s still warm.”
