Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted (Stella and Keegan) novel Chapter 342

Chapter 342

Stella stood up. Before she could speak, Dahlia grabbed her arm, looking angry. “Did you do this? Did you find someone to beat Aurora up? Was it you?!”

Stella frowned. She looked like she did not know what had happened. “Mother, what are you talking about? What happened to Aurora?”

“Stop pretending!” When Dahlia looked at Stella, she immediately thought of Aurora’s bloody, pitiful face. She raised her arm and wanted to slap Stella.

Arthur looked furious. He hit the mattress as he shouted, “Don’t dare!”

Stella was ready to be hit. But her wrist was grabbed by someone the next second. She was abruptly pulled aside. A sound could then be heard when the smack was strongly made. But the slap landed on Keegan’s chin.

Dahlia’s sharp nails raked Keegan’s chin and left a few shallow hints of redness on it.

Stella stared unwaveringly at Keegan. She unconsciously clenched her fingers.

Keegan touched his cheek. He glared at Dahlia. “Are you done? Let’s go outside and talk if you’re done!”

Dahlia looked exceptionally unhappy. She did not expect Keegan to take the slap for Stella. She would be less angry if Keegan grabbed her hand to stop her.

The policeman hurriedly stepped forward to ease the situation. “Ms. Crosby, relax. We’ll know who did it after the investigation.” After he said that, he turned his head to say to Stella, “Ms. Stella, there’s been a violent assault at West Loop Avenue last night. We want to ask you some questions. Can we go outside and talk?”

Arthur instantly sat up when he heard “violent assault”.

“What violent assault? Are you all mistaken?”

The policeman thought that Arthur might be the flashpoint of the incident. He also thought Arthur might be involved in the incident too. So, he told him about Aurora being beaten up.

After hearing what he said, Arthur immediately said, “It can’t be Stella. She was taking care of me in the hospital last night. How’d she have the time to go and do that?”

The police frowned. ‘Stella has another alibi now.’
