Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted (Stella and Keegan) novel Chapter 1592

Marshall nodded and said, “Take your time.”

Despite having promised to be with them after ten minutes, Stella got caught up with work and could not break free. Ten minutes turned into twenty, and she was still nowhere to be found.

Kayla looked at the time and asked, “Mr. Moore, how is it that you’re friends with Ms. Hall?”

Marshall looked at her, seemingly surprised by the question. Nonetheless, he responded, “Stella has a good personality. She’s warm-hearted and loyal to her friends. She’s someone worth knowing.”

“But didn’t you say you don’t like people who don’t value punctuality? She said she’d be here in ten minutes, but it’s been twenty, and she still hasn’t come down yet. Don’t you want to write her a note and leave?” Kayla queried.

Marshall was taken aback. He then realized who she was. The recent string of arranged dates was more of a family obligation for him. He did not intend to pursue any romantic relationships. So, he made excuses to end each date.

Kayla’s mention of the note jogged his memory. He smiled and explained, “I apologize for my rudeness. I’m not particularly fond of getting to know someone with the intention of developing a romantic relationship through arranged meetings. However, I couldn’t refuse my family’s arrangement, so I had to come up with an excuse to leave the blind date. I’m truly sorry for making you upset.”

His response left Kayla stunned, ‘Well, this is unexpected. I guess he isn’t as bad as I thought.’

Kayla realized that she had been acting petty and said, “It’s fine. I was late because my car broke down that day. I’m not a fan of arranged meetings, either.

You left a note, which gave me a chance to explain things to my parents.”

“You’re still young, Ms. Wilson. There’s no need to rush into arranged meetings.
