Semua Bab Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted: Bab 1131 - Bab 1140

"You're overthinking it. I wouldn't have agreed to go to the glassware store with you if I was actually trying to avoid people from seeing us together. I just don't feel cold right now," Stella explained.Stella was someone who only remembers the good and forgets the bad. She had forgotten Keegan's warning when Marshall asked her to go shopping for glassware with him. However, Marshall's sudden move of putting his coat over her reminded her how flirty they were being with each other. That was why she rejected the offer.'Then again, he did it so naturally. It doesn't seem like a romantic gesture. I bet Marshall wouldn't even fall for someone like me. Someone as gentle as him would probably like a modest and elegant woman or a girl with a sassy personality who deviates from the norm. And I'm clearly none of those. I'm just awkward and cheesy, especially when it comes to love.'Marshall smiled, hearing her say that. "Alright. Maybe I'm the one who's being overly sensitive." He paused

Keegan's face turned ugly. "I'm not jealous," he said."Then, tell me. Why are you acting out?" Stella had tried her best to downplay everything not to make Keegan worry. She had expected to get his affection and comfort, but he ended up focusing on the fact that she and Marshall were together. Stella's heart turned cold."You never say anything or even tell me anything. You asked me to keep my distance from Marshall and not talk about when you left me alone at our wedding after we married. I know you have your reasons, but they're the only thing you have! You never had any trust when it came to sharing things with me! It's like I'm never good enough for it!"Keegan was frustrated and did not want to argue with Stella. "This has nothing to do with my trust in you. I'm doing this for your own goo—""I'm sick of hearing that! You keep thinking that you're doing things for my own good, but if that were true, you would've told me your reasoning."After a long time, Keegan said, "Marsh

Stella's face darkened, and she hit him on the shoulders. "I'm not the one to blame if you fail at cooking. It must be because you lack talent!""Okay. So I lack talent. Can you invest more of your attention on me, Ms. Jewell?" Keegan chuckled."Stop fooling around and drive. The fish's gonna go bad if we don't get home soon," Stella urged as she fastened her seat belt. Keegan stopped talking and began to drive.When they arrived, Stella went upstairs to change. Keegan had just taken off his coat when his phone rang. It was Trevor. 'He's definitely calling to talk about the incident.'As Keegan expected, Trevor questioned him as soon as he answered the phone. "I allowed Stella to stay with you, and this is how you take care of her? I should've gotten her out of there from the start!"Keegan put his phone on the table and went to pour himself a glass of water. He did not listen to a single word of Trevor's subsequent complaints and accusations since he already knew what he would sa

"You're the one who's been working so hard to teach me, Ms. Jewell. You should be the one who takes the first sip," said Keegan."All I did was order you around. You're the one who put in the work. So, after you," Stella insisted.Keegan put on a generous act and said, "Fish stew is great for healing wounds."Stella did not back down. "Fish stew is good for the brain. You should drink up since you use your brain so much at work."Keegan looked at the bowl of stew that radiated a strange smell before him and pondered for a moment. "Why don't we order takeout instead?" he suggested."It would be a pity if we just throw this out, though. The fish was 30 dollars per pound," Stella pretentiously said."That's true." Keegan thought about it for a moment and continued, "I know a way to not waste it.""What's the plan?" Stella curiously asked.Keegan did not say anything. He took a picture of the pot of stew with his phone and sent it to Leighton.Leighton was lying on the couch, look

The fish stew looked murky and tasted fishy. It was also salty, spicy, and a little burned The weird combination of flavors made it almost inedible.Leighton was in absolute shock when he took the first sip. He had never eaten something as disgusting as that before."Does it taste bad?" Estelle could not help but ask after she saw his reaction.As a fan of Dusk Galaxy, Leighton vowed to defend his idol's image until the end. So, he said, "No. It's pretty tasty.""Then, why did you spit it out?""It was too hot," Leighton stubbornly said.Estelle did not bother to continue the conversation and said, "I'm gonna go wash up. Remember to go to bed after you finished your stew. We have work tomorrow.""Yeah, yeah."After Estelle left, Leighton stared at the pot of stew and thought, 'Should I just throw it out? Stella did make it for me, but it's literally so hard to swallow.'Leighton frowned, as he thought about what he should do with the food. Then, he suddenly remembered Keegan's
