Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted (Stella and Keegan) novel Chapter 1638

Stella suddenly remembered what she had told Keegan at Solstice Shore previously.

She said that she wanted him to become a father before he turned thirty-five, or he would have to use a cane to attend the parent-teacher conference.

Although Keegan did not like her mocking him, he could not help but join her in fantasizing about their life in the future.

However, their dreams of a wonderful future ended on New Year’s Day. The person she had shared those dreams with had disappeared forever in that icy river.

Stella kept quiet, but she was overwhelmed by emotions inside. She then shut her eyes for some time before saying in a low voice, “My husband… has gone missing.”

The mother paused, not understanding what Stella meant by “missing”.

’Did he leave her after they fought, or did he run away with another woman?1 The mother wondered to herself.

As she thought about how to respond, she heard Stella continuing, “He fell into the water, and they couldn’t find him even after twelve days. Everyone said that he’s dead, and the will executor called me last night to read his will.”

The mother did not expect Stella to say that and was suddenly at a loss for words.

Then, she tried to make Stella feel better, “I’m sure that he cares a lot about you since he included you in his will.”

“Yeah…” Stella murmured, “He does…”

However, Keegan had never really expressed his true feelings to Stella.

The atmosphere grew somewhat tense. The mother felt sorry for Stella and continued to console her, “There’s a wishing well up in the mountain of Jorgeville, and everyone says it’s very efficacious. My father-in-law was diagnosed with liver cancer last year, and I went there with my mother- in-law to wish for his recovery. Just a few days later, the hospital called to say they had made a mistake with a diagnosis and that he was actually perfectly healthy.”

‘It’s just a misdiagnosis. Does it really have anything to do with the wishing well?’ Stella thought to herself.

Also, my relative has a son with very average grades.

However, now that Keegan was no longer around, the promise remained. Stella had probably come to Jorgeville to fulfill Keegan’s promise.

Marshall only arrived in Jorgeville around one in the morning.

Although he was in a rush, he figured it would be inappropriate to go into town and look for Stella in the middle of the night. So, he decided to spend the night in a nearby motel and took a bus to where Arthur lived at six in the morning.

But Stella was not there.

The only clue they had led to nothing. Stella did not bring her phone, nor did she use a proper form of transportation. She had cut off all contact with everyone else, and nobody knew where she went.

Trevor looked everywhere and could only see her getting into a dirty, black minivan from the surveillance footage. The car plate was so muddy that Trevor could not even read it. So, he needed some time to identify the vehicle.

Marshall had planned to return to Rivera and replanned everything. However, he could not help but wonder whether he had arrived at Jorgeville too early and Stella might still be on her way there.
