Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted (Stella and Keegan) novel Chapter 290

Chapter 290

“Is the food not good?” Keegan noticed Stella’s unusualness.

“No, it’s quite tasty.” It was rare for Keegan to be nice for a change, and Stella was aware of that. However, she was too full to eat anything, so she murmured quietly, “I’m just not that hungry.”

Apparently, Keegan did not believe her. “Maybe you’re too starved, and you’re worried that you’ll wolf down your food and embarrass yourself in front of me with your terrible table manners?

Seeing that Stella was silent, Keegan replied with a straight face. “I’ve seen the way you insisted that I take your pants off for you to go to the toilet when you were drunk. Would I care if you have embarrassing table manners?”

The corner of Stella’s mouth twitched at his statement.

“Can you not talk about something so disgusting while we’re eating?”

Keegan stopped his actions and replied, “Isn’t this Mama Fly’s line?”

‘I’m already too full to eat, yet this bastard is making things worse by reminding me of the joke I told him before. I’ve lost my appetite.”

Stella reluctantly ate half a bowl of porridge and asked, “Where’s my great-grandpa?”

“He went gambling.”

“What?” Stella had almost jumped out of her seat. “Why didn’t you stop him?”

Keegan replied calmly, “He seemed like he was having fun.”

“But, you can’t just leave him like that. What if he loses?”

The people on the cruise were all wealthy. Even though the casino there operated for entertainment purposes and the leverage used for gambling worth relatively little to them, it was still considered a huge wager for regular people. They used real money for gambling.

‘Great-grandpa has spent all his life living in his hometown. The biggest gambling scene that he played was probably poker games with the old folks in the countryside with tens of dollars as leverage.

‘He must have never seen big gambling places like this. He would be distressed if he loses.’
