Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted (Stella and Keegan) novel Chapter 1695

Before Keegan could speak, Jaylene interjected, “Stella, the doctor advised Keegan to rest more. He’s already had a tiring day. If you have something to discuss, maybe you can wait until he’s feeling-“

Stella coldly cut her off, “Can you shut up? I was talking to Keegan, not you.”

As she finished, Keegan spoke sternly, “Why are you constantly telling people to shut up? Don’t you understand basic manners, Stella?”

Stella could not believe that Keegan was standing up for Jaylene, “She knew everyone was looking for you, knew where you were, yet pretended to act all innocent and pitiable! The fact that I haven’t laid a hand on her yet is my best display of courtesy!”

Keegan’s gaze turned stern, “I went into hiding of my own free will. Who do you think you are to interrogate her?”

Those words were much more lethal than those defending Jaylene earlier. They stabbed through Stella’s heart like a sharp knife. She turned pale immediately.

“Who do I think I am?” Stella bit her lips and lifted her right hand, revealing the diamond ring on her ring finger, “I am your fiancee!”

Keegan was momentarily stunned. He furrowed his brows and examined her.

Dahlia, fearing that Keegan and Stella being together would remind him of past events and result in her eviction from the Kane residence, quickly said, “What a joke. I am his mother; I would know if you were his fiancee.”

“You don’t even know that your son can’t swim. I find it reasonable that you don’t know this. Keegan kicked you out of the Kane family; there’s no need for him to inform you about his engagement,” said Trevor.

Dahlia was taken aback. Annoyed, she said, “None of this would have happened if it weren’t for Stella stirring up trouble!”

“Stirring up trouble?” Stella looked at Dahlia with a cold gaze and continued, “Ms. Crosby, your memory seems to be failing. Do you need me to remind you how Keegan disowned you?”

Stella did not want to deal with Dahlia right now, but her constant yapping was becoming unbearable.
