Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted (Stella and Keegan) novel Chapter 284

Chapter 284

Arthur’s insult was mainly aimed at Albert. Stella then felt that he wasn’t a confused old man. Albert smiled apologetically and said, “Keegan treats her very well. Stella is blessed to have married him. How is she in a lion’s den?” The old man snorted and did not speak again.

Keegan’s appearance was rare at the Jewell residence. Albert wanted him to at least stay for a meal. Initially, Keegan and Stella planned to pick Arthur up and leave, but Albert insisted on them staying. After having lunch with the Jewells, they rested there for a bit before driving the old man back to their place. It was already 3:00 or 4:00 p.m. when they got in the car.

Stella asked her great-grandfather if he wanted to lie down for a while, but the man wanted to

He said he could not see from the window if he lay down. Stella thought that it was funny, but she obeyed his wishes.

Arthur had lived in his hometown all his life. But now, he was in Rivera, the farthest place he had ever traveled. Aldor intentionally slowed down to let him take in the view. Arthur’s golden eyes were fixed on the slowly receding scenery outside the window. The rows and rows of buildings in Rivera looked magnificent.

Arthur looked at the road for a long time and said, “The place is developing really well. There are so many skyscrapers here.”

Stella suddenly felt sad and whispered, “You can stay here longer if you like.”

Arthur smiled and joked, “I didn’t expect to have such a blessing at this age.” As he said that, he suddenly put his hand into the pocket of his coat, rummaged it for a long time, and took out a piece of Ferrero chocolate. He handed it to Stella and whispered to her like a child, “I found this in Sophia’s room. She said it’s chocolate, and it’s super delicious. But, I can’t eat it since I have no teeth left. Can you eat it and tell me if it’s any good?”

Every time he joined them, he was asked to carry a bag or run errands like buying drinks. At the same time, Stella was not allowed to help him out.

Whenever Arthur was dissatisfied with what Keegan did, he would say, “Oh, the city folk…. They’re just not good enough. They can’t do anything right. When I was young, I chased your great-grandma down the street with a pig in my arms. The widows in the village blushed when they saw me.”

Whenever Keegan got mad, the old man would say, “The city folks sure have a bad temper. No girls from our village would ever want him, even if he’s the last man alive. Even if he does end. up getting married, his wife would surely run away with another man.”

Keegan then realized that he was not supporting Stella by bringing Arthur to stay with them; he was just making his own life difficult.
