Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted (Stella and Keegan) novel Chapter 1637

The minivan jolted along the road. The smell of gasoline and food made all the passengers inside uncomfortable, even those not prone to motion sickness.

A woman was holding a six-month-old baby who was crying loudly, irritating the people around her.

One of the passengers complained, “Please make the baby stop crying. It’s so annoying!”

The woman felt embarrassed and kept apologizing to the people around her. Then, she unbuttoned her shirt, intending to breastfeed the baby.

Some passengers looked away uncomfortably, while others looked at her in disgust.

The woman was rather young, and the baby in her arms was probably her first child. The passenger’s reaction made her feel ashamed as her eyes turned slightly red.

Suddenly, she felt someone draping a shirt over her shoulder, making her feel embarrassed for breastfeeding her baby in public.

She paused and turned to the woman sitting next to her, who was wearing a mask and a cap.

The woman dressed very casually, just like everyone else in the minivan. However, her eyes looked incredibly enchanting, though with a hint of tiredness.

She simply draped the shirt over her shoulder without saying anything. Her tiny gesture warmed the mother’s heart as she said softly, “Thank you.”

Stella remained silent as she lowered her gaze to look at the diamond ring on her ring finger.

The baby finally quieted down after being fed. Then, he snuggled in his mother’s arms and curiously looked around the minivan.

The woman brushed off the dust on the shirt before handing it back to Stella. She noticed Stella touching her diamond ring and decided to initiate a conversation, “Are you married too?”

“Yeah,” Stella responded, since she was planning to do that anyway.

“For how long?” The woman asked again.

Stella was taken aback. She reached out to touch the baby’s chubby little hand, but the baby let go of her shirt and grabbed her finger instead.

Just as the baby touched her hand, she felt her heart trembling slightly, followed by a surge of bittersweet emotions flooding from inside.

It took the woman some time to coax the baby before he finally let go of Stella. “My baby is afraid of strangers, and this is my first time seeing him doing something like this. I can tell that he likes you a lot.” The mother said to Stella.

“How old is he?” Stella asked.

“He’ll be six-month-old after five days,” Then, the mother asked, “How old is your child?”

“I don’t have one.” Stella shook her head.

The woman smiled, “You should start planning on having one with your husband. It’s better to have a child when you’re still young so you can spend more time with them.”
