Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted (Stella and Keegan) novel Chapter 1718

Chapter 1718

“I’m fine,” Cordelia responded.

“Are you sure? You didn’t allow guests when Keegan was still missing. Baldwin mentioned you couldn’t get out of bed. Is that true?”

Cordelia chuckled, “I’m sure you know the truth behind that, Stella.”

Stella’s heart sank immediately. It seemed her suspicions were correct; Cordelia had been confined at that time.

The question now was whether it was Chandler’s decision or if Chandler and Dahlia had conspired together. >

Before Stella could say anything, Cordelia made a hushing gesture and put on the gloves, saying, ’Didn’t you talk to Keegan when you arrived?”

The mention of Keegan naturally evoked thoughts of his present connection with Jaylene, causing a twinge of discomfort in Stella’s heart.

“He has company. Why would I want to talk to him? He’ll just say something hurtful, and I’ll get mad.”

Cordelia sighed, ‘Not only does he not remember many things, but his temper has also changed a lot since he came back. It’s hard to say whether this is a blessing or a curse.’

Stella hesitated for a moment. Cordelia had already raised the topic without her probing. It seemed there was little she could ask.

After pondering for a while, she said, “Grandma, I’m sorry.”

Cordelia looked up at her.

Stella continued, “I’ve always wanted to apologize to you. It’s my fault for not holding onto Keegan at that time. If I had been clear-headed enough, I wouldn’t have let him let go. After the incident, I actually didn’t dare face you. T-Thank God he’s okay.”Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated For All Books Updates…

Cordelia fell silent for a moment before speaking, “It would be a lie to say that I was not disappointed. However, you are not to blame. You’ve done everything you could. I can’t place the responsibility on you just because Keegan didn’t come back at that time. I might not have done any better if I were in your position.

Cordelia waved her hand dismissively and said, “I’m just making conversation. You can tell me if you want to or keep it to yourself.”

Stella pondered for a moment and said, “If Keegan wants me to stay by his side, I would do it without hesitation. But I can’t wait for him forever if he doesn’t want me. Marshall is a good person. I’ll let fate decide what will happen between us.”

Just as Keegan and Jaylene walked over, they heard Stella’s words. Jaylene instinctively looked at Keegan. The latter pursed his lips, and his expression remained stoic. His current emotions were incomprehensible. 2

“Keegan,” Jaylene tentatively called out to him, but he did not respond.

Stella turned her head and saw the two of them. Her gaze moved from Jaylene’s supporting hand to Keegan’s face. Her eyelashes fluttered, and she remained silent, biting her lip.

Keegan’s gaze met hers for two seconds before looking away, “Grandma, I want to go to the stable.”

“Your body hasn’t fully recovered yet. You can’t ride a horse,” Cordelia said.

Keegan answered, “I won’t be riding. Jaylene is feeling bored. I want to take her there to have a look.”
