Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted (Stella and Keegan) novel Chapter 1805

Chapter 1805

Stella’s expression immediately changed. “You useless thing! My average cost has been raised to six dollars now! How can I show off my thriftiness to Keegan?”

Keegan was speechless.

He cleared his throat softly, and Stella stopped, quickly hiding the cup behind her back.

Keegan looked at the broken pieces on the floor and suggested, “Why not just sit on the floor? I can still see them. It

Stella froze.

She angrily brought her hand from behind her back, glaring at Keegan. “Why didn’t I hear you coming up? Are you trying to scare me?”

Keegan glanced at the door, which had finally stopped swinging after he had pushed it, and remarked, “My bad, next time I’ll just tear the door down.”

His comment left Stella completely speechless. She cursed in her mind, ‘What an asshole!’

Ignoring him, Stella grabbed another cup, determined to give it another try.

Keegan approached and crouched down. “What are you doing?”

“Isn’t it obvious? I’m drilling the cup.”

Stella marked the bottom of the cup with a pen and turned on the electric drill again.

“It’s going to break,” Keegan warned.

Stella clenched her teeth. “Don’t jinx it, okay?”

With determination, she drilled toward the marked spot again. As expected, it broke once more.

“See, I told you it’d break,” Keegan remarked.

Stella’s expression turned grim. “It’s all your fault!”

Keegan appeared to smile, but the dim lighting made it hard for Stella to discern his expression.

Instead, she heard Keegan explain, “You’re using the wrong drill bit and the wrong drilling mode.

Keegan kept quiet as he thought to himself. ‘Does she think I don’t realize she’s trying to provoke me?’

“Did you buy these cups just for planting flowers?”

“Duh,” Stella added soil into the cups as she spoke, “They’re not for your use. How could a powerful CEO like yourself use such cheap cups?”

She kept muttering, “You’ve been harping on about those ten- dollar forks for two years.”

Keegan was at loss for words.

The weather was chilly, and Keegan noticed Stella’s finger had turned red. He gently brushed them and offered, “Show me how, I’ll take care of it for you.”

Somewhat surprised, Stella agreed to his offer.

Stella showed Keegan how to plant the flowers. Surprisingly, despite his skill in drilling holes, Keegan proved to be clumsy while planting. He almost knocked off all the leaves before finally managing to plant the flower in the cup.

Stella observed the remaining three leaves, her lips trembling, and asked, “Does this look okay?”
