Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted (Stella and Keegan) novel Chapter 1569

Stella shot Keegan a look that asked him to relax. She approached the couple with trembling hands. She then hunched over and asked, “Sir, how is your wife?”

Seeing Keegan’s expression becoming much more restrained, the man immediately accused him. “Your grandson crashed into my car and pushed my wife. She’s five months pregnant, and we don’t even know if the child will make it!”

Upon hearing this, Stella raised her trembling hand and slapped Keegan. “You unfilial child! How could you lay a hand on a pregnant woman?!”

Keegan endured the slap that did not really sting. He bore his teeth and cooperated with her performance. “I didn’t push her!”

“Stop being so stubborn, will you?!” Stella yelled, and she slapped him two more times.

Keegan kept his mouth shut. He suspected that this woman was taking this opportunity to settle an old score with him.

After reprimanding Keegan, Stella started coughing for a moment. Then, she turned to the man with a gentle smile.” This boy was in a rush to take me to the hospital. He doesn’t have much patience and is not good with words. There’s no need to argue with him, sir.”

The man gave Stella a scornful look. “At least one of you is making sense here. How did you end up raising such a crude, old lady?”

Keegan’s face darkened. He was on the verge of losing his temper, but Stella firmly held onto his hand. She changed the subject and asked, “How is your wife? We can take her to the hospital for an examination.”

“We can do the examination ourselves. Just compensate us, and we’ll get going.”

“It’s better we all get her checked just in case. What will you do if things are more serious than it is and what we pay you isn’t enough for her medical bills?” Stella said persuasively.

The man was baffled upon hearing that. ‘What is wrong with this old lady? Why would she care if they under-compensate us?’

“Stop wasting my time. Give us twenty grand, and we’ll be even. We won’t be bothering you even if my wife’s condition turns out to be more serious than it is.”
