Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted (Stella and Keegan) novel Chapter 276

Chapter 276

Stella furrowed her eyebrows. “If Arthur wants to see Keegan, I could just bring him over. Since we both work in the morning, no one would be home. Who would take care of him if you were to send him here? Arthur’s mature in age, and if accidents were to happen, won’t I be the target for complaints?”

She whispered in a low voice. “Keegan’s just like us. What part of him is so good to look at?”

Albert was not satisfied and reprimanded, “What are you trying to say? Have you forgotten the time you returned to your great–grandparent’s home when you were young? Arthur, who loved you the most, would give you the best of everything. Won’t you fulfill his last wish since his days are already limited? How will this trouble you since you’re living so well? Besides, even if Keegan has gone to work, you are still idling at home, right? How would I answer your aunts and uncles if you disagree? Pass the phone to Keegan so I can talk to him.”

‘He made a promise even before calling, and yet he blames me? Rather than Keegan, it would be much better to speak to me. Keegan’s more vicious with his words and is very particular. Would he even agree to let a stranger in if it would negatively impact his lifestyle?‘

Stella then thought, ‘Fine. I’ll let Keegan have the phone. Maybe his vicious tongue could make Albert back off.‘

She then passed the phone to Keegan. “My father wants to speak with you.”

Keegan glanced at her and took the phone. Stella could not get to sleep as she sat beside Keegan, waiting for him to reject Albert viciously. Keegan waited for Albert to finish rambling before he said indifferently, “Alright. I’ll arrange for someone to clean up the guest room.‘

Stella could not believe what she had heard. She waited for Keegan to hang up before asking,.” Why did you agree?”

Keegan returned the phone to her. “Can I even reject it when your father has it all planned?”

‘Bullshit! Has he already forgotten how many times he had heartlessly refused? What’s going on with Keegan today?‘

Stella pursed her lips, only to speak up after a long while, “You allowed him to come. If his being here aggravates you, you’ll have to accept the consequences yourself. Don’t complain to me since I never agreed to it.”

Keegan’s lips twitched as he said, “Are you heartless? Who do you think I did this for?”

Stella curled up in her blanket, closed her eyes, and mumbled, “I didn’t want you to agree. I’ll at most get scolded by father since this is not the first time anyway.”

Keegan suddenly recalled the incident at the hospital, where Stella came home with a slap mark on her face after seeing Albert. It was all because Albert discovered Dahlia had not received the two boxes of white truffles.

‘Albert would only treat her nicely when I’m around. Her days with the Jewell family might not have been as easy as I had imagined.‘

His tossing and turning finally annoyed Stella, and she went outside with the blanket to turn in for the night.

Keegan took out his phone and pondered for a long while before he messaged Felicity, [What did Albert do to Stella?]

Felicity was in a game when she received the message. Her hands accidentally jerked, causing her to miss, and the opponent defeated her.

The teammates scolded her. “Are you trying to act like a newbie? You stole the jungle and bottom lanes, yet you missed when the enemy was right in your face? Why fight for the mage role when you don’t even know how to use it?”

“Aren’t you just throwing the game by picking Angela?”

“Your trashy plays wasted my chance for a rank–up!”

“I can’t believe I joined a newbie team! Quickly surrender so I can start the next game!”
