Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted (Stella and Keegan) novel Chapter 1644

Stella shot him a glance, “Go back then. I didn’t ask you to come anyway.”

Keegan was taken aback. Then, he scoffed and retorted, “Do you think I wanted to come here? I just didn’t want people to gossip!”

He just would not express his true feelings, which was probably why Arthur “bullied” him.

Marshall could not carry out the task at all, so Arthur had to call over some youngers from next door to help.

With swift and precise movements, they soon castrated over a dozen of piglets. Marshall was stunned as he asked in a low voice, “Doesn’t this… hurt?”

Arthur paused for a moment before saying, “Why don’t you ask them?”

Marshall was left speechless.

As Arthur spoke, he grabbed the fattest piglets and asked Stella excitedly, “Stella, how’s this one? Or you can pick which one you like, and I’ll butcher it for you later.”

The piglet squealed and struggled as its hind legs were being held up. Stella reached out to rescue it from Arthur’s hand and said in a low voice, “I don’t feel like eating meat. I want to eat the sweet potatoes you used to roast when I was a child.”

A bright smile suddenly appeared on Arthur’s face. “Okay then. I’ll start a fire to roast them for you.”

Then, he turned to Marshall and said, “Young man, take Stella to freshen up and help me chop some firewood after you come back.”

“Okay,” Marshall responded, stood up, and said to Stella,” Let’s go.”

The government had constructed some settlement housing in the town. However, the people in Jorgeville, including Arthur, were too used to living in their own homes, so none of them moved.
